When I was younger I was always deemed the smart, cute one. That was until I hit high school everything seemed to change. I wasn't the most popular guy in school anymore, I was now known as the nerdy kid that no one likes. And who took my place as the most popular guy in school? Well, his name is Brendon Urie.
Brendon was the kind of guy that any girl would fall for. I mean who wouldn't he's rich, in the football team, he has nice hair. He was as he would say "The man of your dreams." I hate him. I hate him to the point where I want him dead. Ever since I step foot in this school all he's done was beat the crap out of me and insult me. But I'm worse for letting him do that to me. And it sucks that I have to go through this for another three years.
Today though, seemed very peaceful. I haven't got punch in the face by Brendon when I walked through the front entrance of the school. Which I find rather odd. He was always there waiting for me to come in. Nor was I embarrassed by him in homeroom. This scared me…. Knowing Brendon he probably had something planned, that might happen in front of the whole freshmen class.
The lunch bell rang and I was the first one out of the classroom. I ran straight to my locker and tried to get to the lunch room before anyone else did. Before Brendon did. When I made to the cafeteria I was the only one there. I grabbed my food and went outside and sat under a tree. I took out the book that I had in my pocket and began reading and eating. A few minutes later, I looked at my surroundings and I noticed that just about the whole freshmen population was outside. I wondered why. No really, honestly I didn't know. Then again no one told me anything.
Everyone cheered, and that's when I knew Brendon was here. Then everyone turned to face me. Feeling kind of nervous I got up and try to make my way to the exit, but he got me just in time.
"Ross! Where are ya going?" He screamed.
I didn't respond. I stood there staring at the door that lead back into the school.
"What are you afraid of me? Cause I didn't come here to beat you up if that's what your thinking?" Brendon said.
I couldn't help but turn around and say "Really?"
He nodded. "Yes Ryan, I want to settle our difference and become friends."
I smiled when he said that. Maybe he wasn't as bad as I thought he was. Maybe he did have a heart. Being his friend wouldn't be a bad idea. "That sounds great!" The smile on my face got bigger.
Brendon took out his hand. "Friends?"
I grabbed his hand and shook it. "Friends" But I couldn't help but notice Brendon winking at someone. Maybe it was his girlfriend. But before I knew it two guys came out screaming with a rather large bucket and there was water all over me. Everyone was laughing at me.
"Ross you're really funny? What in the world made you think that I would ever be friend with you? You're a loser. And I'm not. Come on everyone let's leave him alone."
There I was alone again. But this time I'm wet. Tears started forming in my eyes. I ran all the to the boy's bathroom and locked myself in the stalls. I stayed there for the rest of the day until the final bell rang. I was still wet but a little dry. I went to my locker and took my backpack. And ran all the way into my bedroom. Why does he always tease me? Why me of all people that is being treated this way? What did I ever to do him?
I cleary remember the first day I met Brendon. I haven't spoke two worse to the guy and he was already treating me like a piece of shit. Was it the way I looked? I dunno. And I don't think I'll ever find out. I must say though, today was by far the worst day of my life. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.
