No one knew who she was. No one saw her in the hallways, No one noticed her. Not even her parents. Not even by the "nerds" in her school even if she was a fellow nerd. She never let anyone in. That's why no one knew how intelligent she was. No one knew her. She had been there for two weeks and the only person that had even taken an interest in her was a girl by the name of Sarah. Sarah would often try to talk to her. The girl would usually just shrug her off or not answer. Today was different though. The bullying had only occurred her first week of school. Her second week was better and she felt good. She even said sorry when she accidentally bumped into one of Sarah's best friends, Benny, the goofball. He said sorry as well, but didn't even look at her. She didn't mind. She was certain that this day was going to be a good day. She had received her usual disgusting peanut butter and jelly sandwich from the creepy lunch lady whom she was sure had a grudge against Benny and his best friend, Ethan. She didn't know why. She just noticed hateful glances from the lunch lady towards them every day. She sat down at her usual lunch table alone not aware that Sarah was staring at her concern clouding her eyes. Ethan glanced at Sarah confused.

"What are you staring at," Ethan asked.

"The new girl," Sarah replied.

"What new girl," Benny asked with a mouthful of fries.

"The one that's been here for two weeks," Sarah said disgusted.

"I've never noticed her," Benny said.

"You never notice anything except food and video games," Sarah said.

"Not true," Benny said. "I notice girls like you."

"Shut up," Sarah said. "Or I'll have you for lunch."

"Sarah, calm down," Ethan said.

"Have you heard anything about her," Sarah asked Ethan.

"I've just heard she's weird," Ethan replied taking a bite of his sandwich.

"You're weird too," Sarah said.

Thanks," Ethan said. "That's just what every boy wants to hear."

"That and that they're starting that happy time in their life that makes them a man," Benny states sarcastically picking a piece of French fry out of his teeth.

Sarah scoffs in disgust.

"Can you be any less of a dork," Sarah asked him.

"Nope," Benny replied with ease. "This is the whole package, baby. Take it or leave it."

"I'll leave it," Sarah said staring at the girl again. "I'm going to go talk to her."

"Have fun," Ethan replied sarcastically.

Sarah walks over the mysterious girl's table not sure why she felt compelled to talk to her. Sarah sat down cautiously. The girl was just staring at her tray picking at her food.

"Hey," Sarah said cheerfully breaking the awkward silence. "You never told me your name before."

"It's Jane," Jane replied.

"You're actually talking to me today," Sarah said. "Did I do something right?"

"I'm just having a really good day," Jane responded.

"Really," Sarah asked curious. "Why?"

"Am I not allowed to be happy," Jane asked.

"Yes, you're allowed," Sarah responded quickly.

"Good," Jane said.

"So," Sarah breaking the awkward silence again, "what kind of things do you like to do?"

"I like working with computers," Jane said. "I've always been fascinated with them."

"Ethan likes computers," Sarah said pointing at him.

"Are you trying to set me up with your friend," Jane asked.

"No," Sarah said. "I was just pointing out something that you had in common with one of my other friends."

"Oh, okay," Jane said.

"Do you want to meet my other friends," Sarah asked.

"I suppose I could," Jane answered.

"Before you meet my friends, I have to ask you a question," Sarah said.

"What," Jane asked.

"Do you like Dusk," Sarah asked.

"Are you kidding," Jane asked. "Of course not."

"You'll fit in just fine," Sarah said smiling.

Jane started smiling as well. Now, she was absolutely positive that this day was going to be a good day. However, what she didn't realize was the captain of the cheerleading squad walking up behind her with a carton of milk. As Jane was getting up, the carton of milk "just happened" to tip over and spill all over Jane's shirt. The milk went down the back of her shirt and was dripping down her neck. Jane stood up and stared menacingly at the captain of the cheerleading squad. All eyes were on them including Ethan and Benny's.

"What are you going to do about it, freak," she said.

Jane wanted to punch her, but she wasn't that kind of a person. She was the type of person that ran away from her problems and that's exactly what she did. She ran full speed out of the cafeteria. Sarah stared open mouthed at the scene that had just played before her still in shock. That shock was then replaced by anger.

"What is your problem," Sarah asked.

"It's not that has the problem," the girl replied. "It's her."

"No wonder people talk about you behind your back," Sarah muttered not caring if she heard her or not. Sarah ran to find Jane to see if she was okay. She looked all up and down the hallways until she got to the girl's bathroom. She heard sniffling coming from inside so she assumed Jane was in there. She was. Jane had grabbed a couple of paper towels trying to get the milk out of her shirt. Sarah grabbed a few paper towels and wiped the back of her shirt trying to get the trails of milk off of it. After a few minutes, Jane, realizing that it's not going to come out, sighed placing her head in her hands,

"Are you okay," Sarah asked.

"I'll be fine," Jane replied.

"Are you sure," Sarah asked concerned.

"Yes, I'm sure," Jane said. "She'll get what's coming to her."
