When Summer started most of my friends began to bully me, the only ones that didn't were my six best friends, well technically four but that's for a later time. My ‘friends’ were always calling me four eyes, but I literally had four eyes! So, it didn't make sense, But they would walk around always saying “Four eyes” in the most horrid voice when they saw me, and it would always give me chills when they did. I was soon dreading going back to school. I was in most of their classes so I did want to go to them. I almost started skipping my classes to avoid being near them.
It was almost the seventh grade, and I had this gut feeling it was going to be the worst year of my life. As the days pass, getting closer and closer to the first day. When eventually that day came, I was scared to death. We walked up to the school like we usually did and opened the doors to the building. The school day soon started and I was mostly right. Most of the bullying stopped surprisingly. All my ‘friends’ hatred for me seemed to just melt away. They started acting nice around me. Trying to give me gifts, And they were always saying sorry for what they did to me. Thinking that all the pain they put me through would just go away. Well, they were wrong, I wanted them to leave me alone, I don't want to ever talk to them again. But whenever I asked them to leave, they would start coming up to me more often outside of classes I had and outside of school.
I knew they just wanted me to say ‘sure I want to stay friends with you guys.’ But I didn't want them to get there way, not this time. The Entire time this was happening I always saw No-Name around me. Probably making sure no bullying was happening.
One day I went up to her and asked
“what are doing, are you looking out for fights?” She didn't say anything. I thought she didn't hear me till.
“Watching the fakers beg for forgiveness. Even if the answer will stay as a no.” A shiver went down my spine. I was not expecting that to be her response. That was a freaky thing to say. I must have had a shocked look, well I knew I did. I was thinking that I didn't know this entire time that she was making sure the girls weren't going to do anything to me. After the long silence.
“Want to be my friend?” She said. A minute after comprehending what just happened I replied.
“Sure.”
I needed some new friends. I had lost a lot of them, I was trying to get more but everyone just ignored me. Anyways, why would she of all people be my friend, she knew we both wanted to be too alone all the time. The girls who once bullied me were never seen around me again after that. But when I did see them, they always made this terrified face. Thinking about it, that was the weirdest thing that I’d always see when walking around the school. It was creepy how they had been bothering me ever since school started and once I became friends with No-Name they just disappeared. I wonder what would have happened if I had never spoken to No-name on that day. They probably would have convinced me somehow to become their friend again. Manipulating me and making me feel worthless again. Which kind of made me get in a bad mood. Well, it doesn't matter anymore. Everything is fine on the outside. So I'll continue to put on my act, until I can't hide the real me anymore, and have to show my real self.
