Shadow's POV

My alarm clock rang and I immediately slammed it. First day of high school, for the third time. Great, just frickin' great. My first day as a junior and I thought I knew it was going to be a shittier year and way more shitty than last year. I only have one good friend and his name is Silver the Hedgehog. He's been my best friend since the sixth grade. He's my only friend.

I live in a one-story home only eight blocks from Station Square High School, where I go. I am the only child, I have an alcoholic mother, and I don't know who my father is and never will. Quite frankly, I could care less. I hated my fucking life. Full of shit. Most of the people I knew fucking backstabbed me, including my own father. He left me and my mom when she was pregnant with me. Fucking loser. I wish I had my own dad. Silver's lucky to have a dad, but he's fucking hit and abused by him every day. At least I have a caring mom. She does everything she can for me, but she's addicted to alcohol. At least she's not addicted to heroin or meth. She loves me deeply though, and I deeply love her too. She always told me she loved me and I told her the same.

She had her license taken away from her last year and I driven her and myself ever since. I always drive to school in my shitty 1969 red Ford pickup truck. Silver doesn't have a car yet cause his mom died six years ago and his dad is way too fucking cheap, even though he has a car and he won't allow Silver to drive it even though he doesn't for some reason. Silver lives only two blocks away from me and I pick him up and drop him off everyday.

I dressed into a plain red shirt with black skinny jeans and black converse. I walked into my mother's bedroom where she was passed out on her bed. She doesn't have to go to her job at the office until 10 a.m. School starts at 8 a.m., so that's good enough for me. I bent down and kissed her forehead and walked out.

I grabbed my small, black Jansport backpack, $10, and my tiny Samsung phone. I heated up two hot pockets and ate them with some orange juice. I then grabbed my car keys and headed out the front door.

I headed into my truck and headed down to Silver's house. He walked outside wearing a long-sleeve white shirt to cover up his bruises. He wore blue jeans with black converse.

He threw his small, white Jansport backpack into the passenger seat and climbed in. I then drove off to school.

"My dad's getting a job," said Silver.

"It's about freaking time."

"I know, right? Geez, thank God I quit my stupid job."

"Ha! Working at Peter the Pirate's wearing a ridiculous pirate costume as a waiter."

"Don't talk about it.

"Kay. Where did he get a job at?"

"He's now working as a custodian for the Station Square Mall. He's working from Mondays through Fridays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m."

"Yeah, right. Like he does any cleaning..."

"He actually does clean now."

"Really, since when?"

"Since when he told me to stop playing so much Xbox."

"You then promised he has to clean more often?"

"Yep, I'm tired of cleaning everything. I still play the XBox anyway. I plan to sell it for the 360."

"Good, it's way better than that piece of crap."

"Yup, sure is. I might even get a Wii."

"Are you serious?"

"Yeah."

"Dude, that thing sucks."

"No, it doesn't. I heard the reviews."

I laughed, "Well, I don't like it that much. I got it for Christmas. I hated it and found it confusing. I later sold it and bought a PlayStation 3."

"I once played it at GameStop and I don't understand it."

"You probably never will. You suck at Algebra anyway."

He laughed, "Hey! I'm taking Geometry Honors this year, if that's good enough for you."

"What's good enough for me is that I'm taking Algebra 2 Honors."

"Geek."

"What? That's normal for a junior. You're kind of a slacker for being one class below your grade."

Silver laughed and smiled, "At least I have talent."

"In what?"

"Playing piano."

"Oh, yeah. You're really good. How come you never play at the talent shows or signed up for the school band or anything?"

"Cause those stupid punk-ass jocks bring me down."

"Hey, don't let them bring you down, Silver. You're lucky you have a talent. I don't."

"You always kick my ass at Call of Duty whenever you come over to my house. You have a talent at playing video games."

"Yeah."

"And poetry. They're so gruesome. You're like the dark side of Robert Frost or whatever that dude's name was."

"You write beautiful poems."

"Thanks."

"You're welcome."

We soon later arrived at Station Square High, home of the Spartans. I parked into my assigned spot in the junior parking lot. We saw all of the jocks outside screwing around with each other and laughing. They were also flirting with girls. Why weren't we like that you ask? We hated sports. That's it. We also sucked at sports. We were just not good at them.

We were really unpopular students. We were considered geeks for our love for computers. All of our classes were Honors or AP classes. We had A's in every class, even P.E., which we sucked at. We only got an "A" because we showed up and participated. Me and Silver only had to do P.E. for two years. We did it out freshman and sophomore years. We're finally done with P.E. and we're glad we are.

In our free time, we would go over to Station Square Park, which is right across the street from school. We would always go there for having a quick smoke and write in our journals.

Normal POV

Silver and Shadow were unpopular students. They were always picked on and bullied by the jocks. They hated their school. They hated its environment. Shadow was known for being angry and swearing at some of his teachers. Silver was known for being really calm, cool, and collected. He always knew when to say the right things during awkward and awful situations, especially with bullies.

Their activities and hobbies were writing poetry and music. They also made videos for their film classes, but never put them on any sites such as YouTube. They spent most of their time playing video games and studying.

They only participated in a couple of school activities. They never participated on the school's sports teams. Not participating in sports drew them away from the crowd. The only activities they were involved in were being the video designers and sound engineers for the school's plays. They were also unpopular and picked on because they were not rich and vulnerable. They were the bottom two losers. Not just the junior class, the entire school. So they were the losers of the losers. But they were really nice kids. They were in advanced classes and they were good students.

However, they were good-looking. As you might say though, they never really had any 'girlfriends' or kissed anyone before at the time. They were basically virgins.

Silver's POV

We walked over to the front of the school. Sonic the Hedgehog, one of the school's jocks and bullies, was wearing a school jacket that day with the colors of blue and green. His girlfriend Sally was with him and his best friends, Tails and Knuckles. Knuckles had a worse temper than Shadow. He was wearing a school jacket that day and he was a stuck-up douche, man-whore just like Sonic. His girlfriend, Rouge, was with him. She was the biggest bitch and whore of the whole school. Tails was nicer than his friends, but I really didn't understand why he had to hang out with these jackasses. Probably just to be cool, earn respect, and stuff.

"Well, well," said Sonic, "if it isn't Shadow and Silver. I thought you guys dropped out of school last year to be male prostitutes."

"They don't belong here anyway," said Knuckles, "they belong to a faggot school. Al lthey need to learn is how to be faggots."

"They already are. Shouldn't their parents disown them? Their parents must be shit."

The jocks started laughing and Silver's eyes started filling up with tears and hate.

"Aw, look who's crying. Pussy. Why don't you go run home to your mommy?" asked Sonic to Silver.

Shadow growled and pushed Sonic away from Silver.

"DON'T YOU EVER SAY TALK TO HIM LIKE THAT AGAIN YOU FUCKING HOMO!" screamed Shadow.

"Ouch, that hurt. Even though I do have a girlfriend and you don't. I've heard better comebacks from a dildo. Get a life."

"Well, your girlfriend should have been aborted. Just like 'The Jersey Shore.'"

"What is that supposed to mean, nerd?"

"..."

"Now get out of here, loser." He then pushed Shadow.

"Why won't you go home and fuck your mother some more?" muttered Silver."

Sonic snapped his head towards Silver, "What?"

"Go home and fuck your mom some more. She can later give you crabs for dinner."

"Oh, shit!" screamed Tails, nearly laughing and grinning.

Sonic growled and punched Silver in the face. Silver easily fell to the ground and Shadow gave Sonic a roundhouse kick to head. Sonic easily blocked it and threw Shadow to the ground. He and Knuckles spat on the two teens and walked away.

Tails looked down at Shadow and Silver with his bright, blue eyes shimmering a little.

"Tails, come on!" screamed Sonic.

Tails then walked away as fast as he could.

"See ya later faggots," said Rouge. She then walked away. Sally kicked Shadow's side and followed Rouge. Shadow let out a small grunt and got up. He then helped out Silver. The first bell than rang.

"Come on, let's go get our schedules," said Shadow.

They walked over to their guidance counselors' offices and grabbed their schedules. Shadow and Silver both had the same classes together this year, except for Math and English. This was Shadow's schedule:

1st Period - AP U.S. History

2nd Period - Algebra 2 Honors

3rd Period - English 3 Honors

4th Period - French 4 AP

5th Period - Free Time

6th Period - Biology II Honors

7th Period - Advanced Video/Film

This was Silver's schedule:

1st Period - AP U.S. History

2nd Period - English 3 Honors

3rd Period - Geometry Honors

4th Period - French 4 AP

5th Period - Free time

6th Period - Biology II Honors

7th Period - Advanced Video/Film

They both headed off to their first period. Before 2nd period, they said "See ya" to each other and headed off.

In 3rd period in Geometry Honors, Silver noticed a purple cat walk in. He's never seen her before and she looked like a shy, new freshman.

She's so beautiful, thought Silver.

The purple cat walked in and smiled at Silver. Silver smiled back. Blaze then walked over to Silver and took a seat next to him.

"Hi, I'm Blaze," the purple cat smiled, "what's your name?"

"S-silver," stuttered Silver.

Blaze chuckled, "Nice to meet you, Silver." She then shook his hand.

Silver then smiled at her and nodded.

This year will be better for sure, he thought.

At third period in Algebra 2 Honors, Shadow noticed a young, pink hedgehog walk in.

The math teacher whistled to quiet the class down.

"Students," announced the teacher, "this is Amy Rose. She is the only freshman going to be our class the entire class."

Smart girl, thought Shadow smirking.

Shadow then looked into Amy's jade eyes and immediately became attracted to her. She had beautiful slim legs with nice curves, wearing a v-neck shirt with a min-skirt to show off her body. She added leather boots for a nice touch.

Damn, thought Shadow.

"Hey girl!" shouted a random boy, "come sit with us!"

Shadow wanted to say to her, "Don't listen to them." He wanted to say that because he saw upperclassmen before make fun of freshman girls, no matter how attractive or pretty they are.

But Amy already smiled and walked over to the guys. She then noticed Shadow and gave him a small wave for a "hello." Shadow smiled and waved at her back.

This is how it all began... I think...
