Just a Double-drabble, 209 words. My first one ever. I guess I was just feeling in an angsty mood. It's set during Emily's high-school years. …review?
Disclaimer: Pfft I wish. Maybe if I ask really nicely?

A sixteen year old Emily ran up the stairs and locked herself in her room. She threw herself onto her bed and stared at her wall. She hated school. No, she didn't hate school; she hated the people at school. Her fellow peers. She just didn't understand why they didn't like her, why they made fun of her.
The feeling she had inside her was one that couldn't be put into words. She tried her hardest to be liked but it seemed that the more she tried, the more they hated her. She even felt like the girl she considered her best friend, Nancy, didn't like her all that much either. A tear slipped down her cheek before she wiped it away angrily. No, she wasn't going to let them win.
She rolled over so that she was lying on her back and she heard her front door open and close. Her mother was home. She sighed and rolled her eyes as she felt rage course through her body. She started banging her mattress with both her hands and feet until she was satisfied and her body felt weary. She turned onto her side and fell asleep; wishing that when she woke up, it would've all been a nightmare.
