A/N: You're basically an Addams. All the italics are the lyrics btw.

Transferring to a new school was never in my plan. However, when you've caused more than half of the football team to shower in pigs blood after they've ruined your favorite book, what else can you expect? Not to mention the amount of mental manipulation I have done prior to my revenge. But one thing I did not take into consideration before entering Nevermore was having an annoying little twerp follow me around to try and befriend me despite overhearing him call me a freak.

"Good morning, Addams." He said, sitting down on the empty chair beside me that I had reserved for Xavier.

"You're in Xavier's seat." I replied blankly, not wanting to give him the satisfaction of getting anything but a poker face and monotoned voice out of me.

"He can find somewhere else to sit for this class."

"In that case..." I shoved my things into my bag and stood up, turning around to sit at the next empty table where we could possibly transfer to. "So can I."

"Not so fast, Addams."

He grabbed my arm and pulled me down to the chair before I could leave. I stifled a groan that I wanted to uncharacteristically let out. I refuse to give him the satisfaction of seeing me express other emotions, even if it means concealing my irritation at him. I turned to the door and watch Xavier walk in and give me a confused expression. I merely sent him a mental message to save me yet when he seemed to understand the situation, he let out an airy chuckle and sit on another empty chair.

Traitor.

"Let go of me so I can leave, Mendes." I said, standing up once again.

"Is it so hard for you to sit by me for just one class?" He asked, looking up at me with a raised brow.

"Yes."

"Enlighten me. What's so wrong with sitting beside me?"

"I just hate your stupid face though I know that won't surprise you."

He looked taken aback by my confession and frowned. "Oh really?"

"To me, your skin is one giant wart and your laugh's one big snort. And you stink, so in short, I despise you."

He let out a scoff and rolled his eyes. "So you hate me because of how I look and sound? That's rich."

"You disgrace the human race 'cause you're more of a mosquito."

"You do realize that I'm not a vampire, right? I'm here for telekinesis." He interrupted.

"You basically suck the life out of people you interact with due to your lack of intelligence." I explained. "And if the world was perfect, you would be gone without a trace. But since the world could never be that great, I'll just hate your stupid face."

"Well I think you secretly like me."

"Couldn't be farther from the truth."

Before he could say another word, Ms. Thornhill came into the room and started her lesson. There goes my opportunity of transferring to the seat beside Xavier. I sat down defeatedly and took out my notebook to take notes for the class. I was too focused on writing and even doodling at the corner of the page to the point that I felt myself jolt at the sound of the bell. I quickly packed my things up and stood up before walking over to Xavier and Rowan.

"You betrayed me." I said matter-of-factly, holding Xavier's gaze as he looked up from his seat.

"I did no such thing, Addams." He replied innocently, stuffing his sketchbook into his bag before walking out of the class.
