Just Bonding

= ONE =

The blinding light shone down on my face as I was seated next to the one and only Eric and he was known to be this arrogant boy who just played girls hearts. It wasn't right. We were seated next to window in which he made me sit near the window where most of the time the weather is sunny. I hated the sun and most days I never go out in the sun because I am one of those people that stay inside and never go out most of the time. Everyone in this high school was just backstabbers. They get the gossip out of you, or, your secrets and spur them all around the school. They never stop. Whatever you do the secrets they get they never ever stop. Trust me. 

Eric was tapping his pen on the desk and it got annoying. " Do you mind? " I said turning to him with irritation in my voice. " No. I don't mind whatever your going to do or behave like " He slightly smirked. I breathed in and out controlling my anger building up inside of me. I felt like I was going to explode. My anger was something my parents told me I should control. How in the world am I going to control my anger when I am sitting next to this ... something. I can't explain him he is like gum on the bottom of your shoe that you can't get rid of and then it becomes annoying. Eric was exactly like that.

He poked my shoulder with his pen and smirked whilst doing so. I felt the pen poke me and I growled quietly making sure no one else heard me. The teacher didn't care whether we were running about in the class or actually doing work. He was just as bad. It felt like Eric had the advantage to annoy whenever he wanted. I turned around and gave him a deathly glare but that didn't stop him. " What are you smiling about? Do you think annoying me is funny? " I said slightly raising my voice. " Y/N, I am not intimidated by your little attitude, in fact, it really annoys me how you raise your voice and become a little brat " As he said the last two words I became stiff. These words were said to me before. The words he just said hurt me but I would never show that to anyone. I hid my emotions because everyone thought of me as this strong and brave girl with a kind soul. Eric didn't know when to call it quits. He went too far and he didn't notice. He likes to annoy me most since his girlfriend is the Captain of the cheerleading squad with all the backup dancers. I hated her because she and Eric were acting like the kings and queens of the school when they were just some of the kids at school, nothing else. I don't know what was so interesting about them, I mean they did nothing good. They walked along them clear white hallways which had posters on them about music and stuff and acted like they owned the school. I had a headache due to my mother and my father screaming that morning. 

Jessica is my friend but inside I call her my best friend since she is the only friend I have. She was there for me when I had no one else. The arguing with my parents have been getting worse. I don't want to tell Jessica because that would just worry her and besides I didn't want to tell anyone family problems. I wanted to sort the arguing out but I was scared because if I got involved it might have become a family argument. I didn't want it to become that. My thoughts were interrupted when someone bashed my back with their shoulder. We were still in class but where I sat next to the window the tissues were behind me and I knew for certain that it was Melissa, Eric's girlfriend. Everything she did she meant. I turned around from where I was looking and glanced at her and said the most unrealistic thing coming from my mouth " You just bashed me, are you going to apologize " I was utterly shaking inside because, truth be told I was scared of many things and she was one of them. She had that presence that always felt scary, like she wanted you to be afraid of her. Eric slightly smirked at Melissa who was frowning at me probably about to punch me. I closed my eyes waiting for the hard impact against my face, but I never felt it. I slowly opened my eyes still afraid of what I might see, but it was weird because there stood Kye holding her fist. It was surprising because Kye never stood up for anyone but himself. He was one of Eric's ' goonies ' Kye had been following Eric around along with Kieran acting like they were the rebels of the school. Kye looked at me and quietly giggled. I wondered why he giggled because he never giggles, at all. He always just follows Eric around like a lost puppy.

Kye had looked at Melissa and then at me and then at Eric who was now scribbling on his blank piece of paper, like I said the teacher doesn't care. The teacher just sits there and minds his own business. He never really knows what's going on in the classroom. The classroom can be filled with shouts and pens being thrown and other really loud noises and he still wouldn't care. I always thought, why did he even become a teacher? Eric once again decided to poke me when Kye and Melissa were shouting at each other. " WHAT IS IT THIS TIME ERIC! " I shouted at him not knowing what the rest of the day would be like.
