MUST READ AUTHOR'S NOTE!
I would tell you my name.
But it doesn't matter.
It never did. Not when I was born, surrounded by other screaming infants. Not when I said my first word, like so many others. Not when I learned to read at the same time everyone else.
I was just a face lost in the sea of people.
I was the most generic kid ever. I had average grades, had boring friends and I had a cookie-cutter family. My life was boring. And not in a 'Oh I just got my cell phone taken' way. It was much more like a 'Oh god why do I bother existing' boring.
Boring, Average, Mediocre, Standard, Garden Variety, BORING.
I was 16 when I figured out how repulsively normal I was. Unfortunately, It didn't just appear as a thought one day. In fact it happened on a day like any other. I was on a date with my girlfriend, and we went to the park just down the road from my house. We fed pigeons together, watching them coo while sitting on the playground. Finally, at the end of the night, we watched a movie at the same movie theater we had gone to on every date. I walked her home, like we'd always done, and said goodnight.
But that night was different. My girlfriend Laura faced me with barely concealed distain, fury laced across her fair face. She was normally nice-looking, but if looks could kill, I would have been dead ten times over already.
"So." She said, her brown eyes glaring. "Are you ever going to kiss me?"
I paused. Kissing? I had never actually considered kissing my girlfriend. And yes, I know what you're thinking. I realize that I am a teenage boy and I should want to do... those things. And no, nothing is wrong with me.
I think I'm too innocent for my own good.
I mean, Laura and I went on dates and held hands occasionally. Though, kissing didn't seem all appealing to me. It's not like I didn't like my girlfriend. The only thing about being intimate is that its just so awkward. It's basically sharing DNA with someone. Besides, 16 is only a teenager still time for mistakes and all! I was really confused. Laura wanted to be, what my poor innocent mind thought to be as, sexual with me. So even though I was flipping shit on the inside, I looked her in the eyes and said with discern;
"No."
I could tell that was the wrong thing to say. Her face became a blotted pink, as if someone had hit her in the face with a baseball bat lathered in CoverGirl.
"No? You've got to be kidding me! We have been dating for TWO MONTHS!" She thrust a finger at my chest. "You have done nothing more than HOLD my HAND. I have waited. I watched the movies, I made the moves, I fed those STUPID birds!"
I fought back the urge to inform her that the birds were probably smarter than her, but I decided that was not the best idea.
She let out a feral groan. "I'm fucking done. Dating you... Its like dating a cardboard box. You're empty. You have no personality, no drive, no urge to do anything! You literally are an emotionless brick." She stared at me, her eyes filled with malice. She suddenly gave a bitter smile, scoffing slightly."You're are going to die alone. You are going to die alone with no one because you're boring and have nothing setting you out from the crowd. Go die."
And with a swing of the cold screen door, I was left outside in the dark.
That night...I vowed I wouldn't be boring anymore.
That night, I cried myself to sleep.
Author's Note:
Hi. I'm probably the laziest writer ever.
There will be a lot of things going on with this story. My male OC who I have yet to give a name to is probably the most fun to write about. The complexities of his personality have... yet to be determined. He will be entering during the Bount Arc in Bleach mostly because I am too lazy to write about Ichigo and Rukia at the beginning and I don't think it would be wise to make them meet at the beginning. Also, I really like the Arrancar. Actually that's a lie. I only like about, say half, of the total Arrancar and I kind of want to skip right to them. A lot of people die at that point, and I really want to save them. Also, there will be a poll in the reviews.
What should my OC's name be?
Rules: It must be Japanese and, if possible, please include the meaning. Nothing too dark okay?
Sayonara
