The Invisible Raven
Prologue
A fifteen year old girl sits quietly in the back of the library with her books opened, spread around the table. She works away furiously writing, double checking facts. She pauses when hears two voices.
"Nathan come on, we can't do this here," Peyton says giggling as kissing sounds can be heard.
"Yes we can Peyton, no one is ever back here. I mean who is hanging out in the back of the library during lunch, only people who are making out," Nathan replies but is only heard as mumbles.
"You have a point," Peyton says as they can be heard moving around the library.
'Great, stupid horny cheerleader and basketball player. It was such as cliche that pretty blonde Peyton Sawyer cheerleader dates handsome Nathan Scott point guard. It was your typical high school crap,' she thinks as she goes back to working.
"I thought you said no one would be back here," Peyton says spotting the dirty-blonde girl working.
"What I thought it would be," Nathan says. "How was I supposed to know she would be here?"
"Uh, maybe because I have been here every lunch hours since the first day of Freshman year," she says.
"Who are you again," Peyton says.
"Laura, Laura Scott, we had English and Math together last year. This year we have History and Science together," Laura says looking at them.
"Right you did your project on Harriet Tubman," Peyton comments.
"That was me, now if you two don't mind we have a Science project due on Friday that I was attempting to do," Laura says going back to her work.
"Whatever," Nathan says leading Peyton to another spot.
'That's how it usually goes. They hate me, I hate them, wrong. They don't care about me. If I was my older twin brother, Bastard, would have come out of my little brother's mouth. But I am just invisible, they make a comment, I throw one back, go for a few rounds, my name is Laura Elizabeth Scott, I am the daughter of Karen Roe and Dan Scott, and I am invisible. That is how I start everyone of my journal entries,' Laura thinks going back to work.
"There you are Laura," Lucas says ten minutes later.
"What would you like Lucas," Laura asks knowing the only time he talked to her was when he wanted something.
"Do you have my English paper," Lucas asks, remembering he asked her to look it over.
Laura moves towards her bag, pulling out a blue folder, sliding it to him, before going back to work.
'This is my life, being ignored, only talked to when I was in the way or something is wanted from me,' Laura thinks as she packs up her bags.
She quickly walks out of the library, stops at her locker, switches for her two afternoon classes before walking away. She walks into the girls changing room. She walks into the furthest stall before putting the seat cover down and sitting Indian style on top of it.
She puts her bag down before pulling out a metal tin. She opens the tin to reveal several exacto knives blades and a small vial of pills. She picks up a small exacto knife blade between her thumb and index finger of her left hand. She rolls up the bottom of her shirt before bringing the blade to the right side of her stomach and pulling it across her stomach.
"Now I feel the physical pain, please allow the physical pain to soak up the emotional pain that fills and hardens my heart," Laura chants as the brings the blade across.
She quickly cleans up as the bell goes off.
