I moved to the small town of Chillicothe, Ohio. It was an odd town, and it was difficult to adjust. I enrolled into Pike River High, where I met some unique people. Though, there was one that stood out from the other stereotypical students. I made i...

"Bye! Love you!" I closed the passenger door and walked across the parking lot to the main entrance. Once I was on the sidewalk, I turned to wave goodbye to dad as he drove away.

Then next to him was a tall guy with blonde hair. He wore a white shirt with a pink cat on it. I noticed that he would stare at almost every girl that passed by him.

Then there was a guy who seemed fairly normal. He had brown hair that was neatly brushed back. He wore very normal clothing, which was a grey t-shirt with a 'T' on it and jeans. He, like the dude beside him, was also staring at the girls who passed him.
