I'm lucky to get a seat for myself on the bus, it's usually full of people and if I don't need to stand I have to sit beside a stranger. if I have really bad luck, I have to sit beside a human. they don't really like us trolls, but I'm used to that. I would also have bad luck if I have to sit beside a low blood. they shouldn't even have come to earth, and the humans really hate them. but I have purple blood, so I'm more accepted than other trolls, though humans still dislike me.
suddenly I see someone standing beside my seat. it's a troll with big horns and the taurus sign on his black shirt. and he has robot legs...?
"cAN I,,, uHH,,, sIT HERE?" he asks.
I hesitate before I answer. I know this troll from school, he's a low blood, but there's more reasons to why I don't like him. one is, he had flushed feelings for me a while ago, or maybe he still has, and he wrote love letters and put them in my locker. when I found out that it was him, I told him to stop, but he didn't. after some seconds of thinking, I tell him that yes, he can sit beside me.
"sO,,, wHAT CLASSES DO YOU HAVE TODAY?" he asks shyly. I stare at him as answer. that's absolutely nothing that he needs to know. why would I tell him anything at all? why would I even talk to him? I regret letting him sit beside me, but I can't tell him to stand now, I'm too nice for that. he asks again, and now I'm starting to get annoyed.
"it's none if your fucking business, asshat", I answer angrily. he should understand that I don't want anything to do with him.
"mY NAME IS tAVROS", he says.
oh great, I think. now he's trying to protect himself? seem tougher than he is? well, he's failing.
"I don't care what your fucking name is", I say, sounding maybe a little more angry than I'd need to. "the only thing I care about right now is that you're fucking sitting beside me and trying to talk to me and I don't fucking want to be close to you, okay?"
"sORRY."
"just shut the fuck up already, we're almost at school."
I survived the bus trip, obviously. I also survived school, and I hopefully didn't fail that test we had in chemistry class. right now I'm sitting in the school café. my friend gamzee left after his last class instead of staying at school accompanying me as he usually does. we use to study together. but he said he didn't want to do that today.
"hello", a voice suddenly says behind me. I turn around to face eridan.
"what the fuck do you want?"
"I'm just wwondering wwhat you're doing", he says and smiles.
"I'm going to fucking study, now can you leave me the fuck alone?" I shout while my mind repeats bad day bad day bad day bad day. I really don't like eridan, he's so annoying. his matesprit, feferi, is okay though, but it seems like she's not with him now.
"you sound like kar", eridan says.
"you mean the one who won't tell anyone what his blood color is?" I have to ask, as I blush a little hearing his name.
"yes, him."
"well, I don't fucking care who I sound like, now leave me alone, I don't wanna say I failed a test 'cause some asshat wouldn't leave me alone."
as he leaves I let out a dramatic sigh of relief. I turn to my biology book and start reading. I find the school subject to be very boring, maybe they're interesting to the humans but not to is trolls. which troll would have any use of knowing how humans to do have a grub? I mean baby. the humans don't need to learn anything about trolls though.
"WHY THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU ARE SO MUCH BETTER THAN EVERYONE BECAUSE OF YOUR FUCKING BLOOD COLOR?" a voice suddenly yells behind me. I spin around in my chair to see karkat standing behind me.
"have I ever said that, mister hide-my-blood-color?" I reply with a smile.
"YOU FUCKING ACTED LIKE THAT EARLIER TODAY."
"excuse me?" I pretend to be shocked. I am better than others because of my blood color, but not everyone. that idiot eridan, for one, has a higher blood color than me, and so does feferi. and gamzee is the same as me.
"TAVROS TOLD ME."
"I never fucking mentioned blood color, but okay", I say. I'm starting to get tired if people talking to me today. well, I don't really mind talking to karkat, but I really need to study. when karkat doesn't answer right away I then my back to him again and return to reading in my biology book.
"y0u need t0 change", I hear another voice behind me, but whoever said that walks away together with karkat. I quickly spin around to see who it was, and I think I recognize her. I can't remember that low blood's name though.
not knowing karkat's blood color is really annoying. I don't know if I really have any feelings for him, but if I do, I can't have a matesprit too low in the caste system. or even a friend, for that matter. otherwise I'd probably be friend with sollux, who I had worked with in math class. he was really good with computer, and is like to be friend with him. but his yellow blood made that impossible for me.
I realize I'm still looking at karkat and the other troll, they're sitting together at a table, and after a while, more trolls start to show up. after five minutes, it's twelve of them sitting there. and in disappointment, I realize gamzee is one of them. that shouldn't surprise me though, 'cause he's karkat's moirail, but I still don't like to see him with some of those trolls.
that cat troll is really nice, but also she is too low on the hemospectrum to be a friend of mine. sometimes, it's too bad that it matters. but it's a good way to keep track of the people worth to make friend with, and the ones not worthy.
after a while, the one of them who has red glasses walk over to me. she sits down at the chair beside mine. in the beginning it would always surprise me that she knows her surrounding perfectly though she's blind.
"W3 4R3 T1R3D OF YOU B31NG SO M34N TO 3V3RYON3", she says, but before I have the chance to answer, she leaves again. when she has returned to their table, one of the others stand up and walks over to me, I recognize her as kanaya, and also she sits down beside me.
"what the fuck do you wa..."
"We Are Tired Of You Being So Mean To Everyone", she cuts me off and then leave. when she comes back to the others, feferi walks over and sits beside me.
"we are tired of you being so mean to everyone", she says and walks back. when the next troll stands up to walk over to me, I slam my book closed and throw it in my school bag to walk away. but the troll comes to me anyone, and puts a hand on my shoulder to make me stay.
"we are tired of 8eing so mean to everyone", she says and then walks back to the table. before I even can see who is the next one to stand up and tell me that same stupid thing, I run out of the door to the school café and to the bus stop.
the next day starts terribly. the bus is full, and it almost seems like someone has arranged it, because all humans and high blood trolls are sitting. which leaves me to stand together with the low bloods. half way to school one if them looks up at me offering me their seat, I say yes without hesitation. I shouldn't have done that. someone had put a bubblegum on the seat, and now it's stuck to my jeans. great, I think. at least my shirt covers my butt.
the bus finally comes to my school, it felt like it took the double time of what it usually does. I get in to my first class and see that someone has written "we are tired of you being so mean to everyone" all over my desk. it's written in different colors and quirks, maybe it's the twelve trolls from yesterday who has written it.
I can't focus on the class, neither on the two following classes. when it's lunch break, I walk over to sit with gamzee, because he's sitting alone at out usual table.
"HeY sIs", he says and smiles when he sees me. I sit down beside him and put the food on the table.
"what the fuck was that thing yesterday about?" I ask him.
"I dOnT kNoW wHaT yOuRe TaLkInG aBoUt", he says, still smiling stupidly.
"you and those other eleven trolls!" I yell. "that was fucking bullying."
"I dOnT kNoW wHaT yOuRe TaLkInG aBoUt" he says again. I sigh and take a bite of my food. it tastes like shit. or maybe it's my bad mood making me think it tastes like that. whatever, I won't eat it.
"you and your idiot friends told me the same fucking thing and then you fucking wrote it on my desk! for all fucking classes!"
"I dOnT kNoW wHaT yOuRe TaLkInG aBoUt." when he answers with the same thing again, I stand up and leave. I walk to my locker to get my stuff for the next class, realizing it starts in half an hour.
"fucking great", I mumble to myself."
the following day are just the same. I wish I could disappear from the surface of earth. everything's shit, and none of those twelve trolls talk to me. of course the other trolls still do, and they seem to not know anything about it. the few days I tried to stay at the café for studying all needed up the same way. they were sitting at the same table, and took turns on walking over to me and tell me the same thing. after two weeks like this, I want to stay home from school, but I can't, because we have big tests coming up before summer break.
I'm standing outside my locker, erasing the text they've written, it's actually no idea to do that, because when I come back on monday the text will be there again.
"LEARNT YOUR LESSON YET?" someone asks behind me and I turn around to face karkat and another troll.
"what fucking lesson?" I ask.
"we are tired 0f y0u being s0 mean t0 every0ne", the troll beside him says.
"I'm not mean!" I yell angrily.
"YES YOU FUCKING ARE AND THAT WILL STOP!" karkat says.
"y0u are g0ing 0n a date with tavr0s t0night."
