Hi, there! This is a new story. I know I have another one up and a series of one-shots, but I SWEAR that this time I'm gonna finish this story because I already have everything planned out and I know how it will continue and how it will end. It will have about 3-4 chapters and this idea came to me after I read the first chapter of another story on here called "On the Outside" that belongs to kitkatsaymeow. Please, check her story out and I have to thank her for giving me permission to make a spinoff of her idea.
Enjoy!
Jack's POV
Why is everyone like this to me? Why do they make fun of me? Is it something wrong with me? Is it because I don't act the way most people do? Am I so different from them?
Everyday is the same for me. Wake up, eat, meet with my only 2 friends Kim and Sunny, go to school, survive nasty comments and boring classes, go home, eat something, go to bed. The basics. But today was way worse than other times.
I woke up, ate then met with Kim and Sunny. When we got into the school's court, the two wanna-bes, Erica and Donna, showed up. They started picking on me. Being a chubby guy who hangs with two nerdy girls whom probably had no choice but hang out with me considering we were the lowest people in school on the social scale. Donna, the more daring one, implanted herself in front of me and started throwing insults at me. How I am too fat for my age, too stupid to interract with people and too smart for their liking. I just couldn't take it anymore. I ran. I turned away and ran out of the school's court, crossed the street without looking and got to my house slamming the front door. I didn't even bother to take my shoes off. I ran into my dad's office and told him I could not take this town anymore. I had to leave as soon as possible. I couldn't bare another day of bullying. I am sorry for leaving Kim and Sunny shouting after me, but I just couldn't take it anymore. I had to go.
Now here I am, packing all my stuff. My father was shocked when I told him about everything that was happening to me over the last few years. Luckily for me my parents were going to tell me tonight that we are moving in about a weak. I told them I can't wait for another weak before I go, I have to leave tomorrow. The fun fact is that we are moving in my grandparents' town so I can leave tomorrow and start a new life there. But here's my plan. I am going to change my life completely. I will start being more open and less self-concious. I will change everything that I am now into a better version of myself without forgetting from where I left. One day I am going to come back here in Los Angeles as my new-self and continue my life that I will be starting in Seaford.
"Mom, dad! Ready to go!" My dad came out from the living room with the car keys in his hand, ready to drive me to the airport. I picked up my luggage, put it in the back of the car and climbed in the front seat. My dad got into the driver's seat, started the car and before departing he said:
"You should have told us sooner. We could have helped you. Maybe you will find this change good and one day you will just forget about this time." I could never forget. I will change myself. I will be me, but more confident. I will be the person I should have been from the beginning.
Kim's POV
All day I have tried to reach Jack, but he seemed to shut the whole world out. What Donna said to him was the last drop. I knew he hated himself. I knew he wanted to be more confident and be stronger. But he just couldn't change all of a sudden. For the first time me and Sunny stood up to Donna and Erica. They were appaled by our reaction, but Jack is our friend and they crossed the line. They had to be stopped. But that was only the beginning of Hell for them.
Jack's mom picked me up from school and told me Jack had gone to leave with his grandparents in Seaford for a while. She and her husband are going to leave in a weak, so they told me to give them an e-mail adress and my Skype to communicate with Jack. But I am scarred that he will not want to talk to me, that he will want to start everything from zero. New city, new life. But I have to be strong for him. I have to turn this school around. And Sunny said she will help me. All we have to do now is to show ourselves that we can be what we want.
Starting tomorrow, everything will change.
"Sunny, it's me, Kim! We have to do something about our school. We have two more years until we finish middle-school. It's time to show those two girlies how to keep their nasty comments to themselves."
"Kim, I know it's hard with Jack gone, but how can the two of us change this? We are just kids."
This is Sunny. Always questioning things, being rational and all. She is more mature than most kids at our age, but this deffinitely an advantage.
"Well, not just the two of us. Jerry and Milton can help. I know we don't talk much with them, but they are in the same postion as us. We can find a way to stop people from being so mean with others and we can start over. Remember, when we enter highschool, our classmates will be the same. If we don't form a strong bond now, I don't know how we will survive highschool."
And that's how it all begins...
