Rick

Dear Journal,

Yet another day at my stupid high school. What is the point of going there anyway? There's nothing to do but do pointless math calculations all day. I mean the work isn't hard but still….it's boring. I was made fun of again today. As usual they commented on my dark purple mohawk. Said my purple shell mustve been some sort of genetic disease. I ignored them but it still gets to me sometimes. I wish they would just grow up sometimes.

It was nice to see him again. NO! I cant think like this. Its just not normal. Maybe they are right…Mable I do have some disease…But he is just so cute! Then again he never talks to me…and no one likes a nerd like me…I don't know what I should do…

"Rick! Dinner is ready!"

The silence in my room broke. My mom called for me. The aroma of tonight's dinner filled the house. "Spaghetti" I thought to myself.

"Kay! Coming!"

I closed my journal and put it in my bag. Put my shell back on and walked out my door. Quickly, I ran downstairs to the kitchen and picked myself a plate. I filled my plate and sat at the family table and started to eat. I ate so fast I wasn't sure if I was even breathing.

"Rick, slow down youre going to choke on something." My mom said in a concerned

"Leave him alone. If he chokes he chokes. Let him learn his lesson the hard way if need be." My father said in a nonchalant tone.

I ignored both of them and continued to eat, occasionally stopping for a drink of water.

"So how was your day honey girl?" my mom asked my little sister

"It was great! I had fun playing with my friends during recess." She said with a smile.

"That's good. What about homework?" My dad asked curiously

"Oh yeah….I still have math homework…" She said like it was a big problem

"Well you know you need to finish that tonight right?"

"Yes papa. Can Rick help me?"

"Of course. Rick! Help your sister!" my dad said in a stern voice.

"*sigh* ok." I said not at all excited.

The dinner went on in silence. After everyone had finished, as usual I did the dishes alone with no help. After I "helped" my little sister with her math homework. And by help I mean doing it for her to get her to shut up about not getting it. I proceeded to clean up any mess left in the house and headed up stairs to take a nice warm shower. I took off my shell and stepped in the bathtub. I turned the water on so it was mostly hot and just stood there letting the water run down me with its warmth. I stepped out and a rush of cool air gave me the shivers, so I dried myself. I was tired so I fell on the bed into a deep slumber

Dream

"Freak!"

I was pushed to the ground by one of the other koopas that make a living on picking on me. I backed up against the wall behind me still sitting down.

"Cant you guys just leave me alone and get a life!"

They laughed.

"HA! Did you hear him? He tried to tell us to stop."

They kicked me in the stomach and I curled in pain.

"Get up!" one screamed. He pulled on my hair to pick me up.

"AH!" I screamed. "Stop it!" I tried to push them away. They continued to laugh.

"Hey! Leave 'em alone!" I heard a voice shout

"Who said –" the lead koopa started to shout but was cut off when he was punched to the face. The lead koopa fell on the ground with a thud. His followers immediately checked on him.

"Get outta here!" I heard a deep voice say. It wasn't one of the ones that were trying to beat me up

"Ok, ok!" I heard the gang shout. The sound of foot steps running away gave me some happiness, but I still cringed in pain.

"Hey, are you alright?" the voice of my savior asked He extended his arm to me

"Here let me help you up." He said kindly. I opened my eyes and stared directly into a pair of pink sunglasses.
