It was a typical morning in high school for me. I walked in to get a paper plane thrown at me. I turned around to see who it was and I wasn't surprised who is was it was Evan Walkers. He smirked as I looked at him. I rolled my eyes he's such an ass i thought. I walked to my locker and checked my first period. Maths. Ugh. I groaned,we had to have partners and I am paired up with Evan. More reasons to hate me I thought. I saw my friend Harley walking up to greet me. She was the typical person people bullied. Ginger hair,glasses,braces,smart,plus she was friends with me. I clumsily shut my locker slamming it on my hand.
"Owwwwwww"I moaned
"OMG JASON ARE YOU OK"Harley rushed
over.
"Yeah I'm fine I said clutching my hand"
I walked over to maths and sat down next to Evan. He was busy texting on his phone. Popular kids. Then Claire walked in and I must admit she looked extra sexy!What?!Just cause I'm a nerd doesn't mean I can't like the slut. Claire has slept with every boy in our grade except me. I'd love to but she has other plans. She claims she has a phoebia that makes her scared of me. She sat down next to Lisa,I started playing with the pencil in my hands. I felt a sharp pain on my leg I realised Evan kicked me. I shot him a glare and he just pretended he didn't notice. Basically that's how the rest of
maths went on. We handed in our assignments then the teacher said"Jason and Claire please will you stay back?"Claire groaned but I shook my head kinda excited. Ok I know I'm weird but like it's me! The teacher explained to us how the headmaster needs two people a counter and an advertiser I thought the job would be perfect for you two. "Of course Miss"said Claire with a huge fake smile on her face
"Uhhhh I'll do it if Claire is... I shrugged when I looked over at her staring at me in a disgusted way.
I blushed. She rolled her eyes and we both looked back at our teacher. She gave us 2 forms each(permission forms)then told us to leave. We left. I walked to my locker to put the permission forms in my locker when Evan came walking over with a glare on his face,I pretended not to notice and quickly shut my locker and tried to walk away quickly but Evan blocked me.
"Evan what is your problem?!"
"Stay away from Claire"he growled
"Yeah ok"
I walked away with the tears stinging my eyes. I slipped into biology completely unnoticed.
Typical I thought when I sat down I looked over at Claire to get a dirty look from her and a "I'm gonna kill u look"from Evan. I shifted in my seat uneasily,I was praying that Evan wouldn't come over. Phew. He didn't though he kept shooting me dirty glares through biology.Once we finished biology I went to the boys toilet. I did my business and then stayed in the cubicle wondering why I even want to live? I cried a bit and then started laughing. I realised how useless and worthless I am cause I remembered my mum telling me how I would probably the most famous person in the world when I was little. A tear slipped out of my eye when I thought about her. Mom. She was the best. Ok so I might really make some mistakes while telling you this. My mum,who was beautiful was amazing she was possibly the best mum ever. She had light pale skin(in a good way)she had brown hair cut in a short neat bob cute and she mostly wore a tight pencil skirt with a shirt. She would always wear tight under her skirt she was amazing. She was so nice to me. She was a mixture of encouraging,sweet,kind,gentle,and perfect. She was the best. (I just realised I said that 3 time)even if I said that 1000000000000000000000000000000000times if still wouldn't be enough. She died. Recently. We were having a normal day when she got dizzy and fainted. I freaked out and rushed her to the hospital and got her checked by a doctor. While I was waiting I was pacing up and down the corridors of the hospital trying to figure out if she was ok. Those 3 hours were the worst of my life. Actually 2nd worst when she died was the worst. Anyway afterwards the doctor came to me with a grave expression my hands were sweating when he told me she was fine right now...he hesitated before he told me she had cancer stage 2. She had a 75% chance of living. I thought she would live. She didn't. She died 7 months later cause of chemotherapy. Anyway I walked to lunch to be greeted a beaming Harley.
"Hey Jason"she smiled
"Oh! Uh hey Harley"
"Jason what's wrong "she asked looking a bit concerned. 
"Nothing"I mumbled
"Ok..."she said uncertainly
"Anyway what's up with you "I said forcing the best fake smile I could
"Oh yeah "
"Well?"I asked
"Aaron asked me out!"she squealed like a kid getting candy.
"Oh that's great"I said trying my best to feel happy for her
We sat down at a lunch table and ate. We mostly ate in an awkward silence because we got a lot of weird stares from people,and no one came to our table because apparently it was the cootie table so whoever sat their had to sit their for the rest of the school year and if they didn't.....well their has been some rumours
•Evan beats you up
•Claire smacks you in ur private part with a 12 inch heel shoe
•or you get bullied everyday

I may sound like a coward saying this but I would not want to be a victim of any of these things. Just as I was opening my muffin Claire appeared. She sat down at the cootie table. Next. To. Me. My heart was beating 20 beats a millisecond.
"Hey"said Claire giving me what seemed like a genuine smile.
I foolishly pinched my self in front of her.
"O-oh h-hi"
She giggled.
"I'm Claire"
"I know "I said
She made eye contact with me and it soon became a staring competition.  After a couple of minutes,I gave in and blinked. She smiled.
"I'm unbeatable"
I stared at her with full admiration.
"Oh!Ummm by the way would you like to hang out today?"
"Yes!"I said and started celebrating but then saw Claire staring at me and I gave her a sheepish smile.
"Sorry"
"That's ok that's kinda cute you know"she said pinching my cheek lightly.
I flinched at her touch.   I felt like electricity was travelling through my body. I never knew one touch could feel that special. The lunch bell rang and I waved goodbye to Claire completely ignoring Harley. The next two classes were Science and History. They went exactly the same as the other too. At the end of school I found a note attached to it from Claire. She told me to meet her up at the local bar at 7. I nervously thought if I should go or not. I promised mom that I wouldn't drink. But...surely mom wouldn't mind if I went once. I decided to go.  Besides I would only have one glass maximum. I walked home in the pouring rain. I saw Claire walking home. She looked worried.
"Claire?"I asked as I approached her.
"Are you ok?"
"Yeah just Liza couldn't walk me home so I'm a bit nervous"
"Oh I'll walk you home" I said with a smile
"Ok"she agreed
We walked back to her house ,which was more like a mansion it had 4 stories and 11 bedrooms plus 13 toilets isn't it cool! After dropping her home I walked back to my own cramped apartment.
