On Top Of The World
(I've been trying to do it right, I've been living a lonely life-Ho Hey! by The Lumineers)
Chapter 2
I went home happy that night, my face etched into a grin as I skipped into my house. I put the keys on their hanger, peeling my thin jacket off and onto the couch. ''DAD?'' I called out, walking into the kitchen. I sighed when I saw a note on the fridge. It was my dad, of course, saying he had gone out, and wouldn't come back until tomorrow. I felt lonesome shot through my body, but I was so used to it, I was able to ignore it.
Kinda sad isn't it? Knowing your lonely and you barely have friends, but don't mind it because your used to being invisible by a human's naked eye. I wasn't that handsome, I wasn't that thin, and I wasn't that buff, so basically I'm a decline by society. But I basically have a date with Tyler, so maybe I would gain more friends little by little.
I never really had friends, well friends I could trust. It was only Scott, but he turned into someone he never wanted to be, and It pissed me off, knowing he could live with himself after all he's put me through. I don't even know why I think about it, but it makes me feel kinda whole again. He was- well, used to be- my best friend after all, and I don't really have one anymore. I don't really have anyone really. Just my dad and fellow workers.
But honesty, It didn't fill my empty void of lonesomeness. It hurt a lot, knowing only one person cared, and he had to because he's my father. Nothing could really fix me I guess. But I just stayed strong so everyone would know I was fine on my own, and I was comfortable not being with anyone but the people I trusted.
~The next day~
Today I was extra lonely. It was before spring break, and that's around the time my mom died. I knew Scott didn't care, because he looked happy all day, smiling and joking with his friend on the Lacrosse team. I quit the Lacrosse team after that, letting Greenberg take my spot on the bench.
It's not like anyone noticed or cared anyway. But Scott and the pack had less people to talk to, considering it was the last day before break. And I hated it, roaming through the halls, all the couples hugging, friends bragging about having sleepovers, and parties. Things I used to do, but it never happened.
On the way to first period, I was tripped by a red high-heel, and planted into the ground. Looking up, I saw the red heels clicking away, and noticed it was Erika. I sighed as she didn't even notice what she did, nor the person talking to her. I looked around, and no one seemed to notice me being on the floor.
Getting up, I blinked away the tears and headed to first period. That wasn't the best class. I had Erika, Boyd, Isaac, Allison, and Scott. As always, they were huddled up talking and cracking jokes. Walking shyly to my desk in the back, I sat down as the teacher did roll call. He said my name, and I raised my hand.
Unlike every single person before me, no one looked around the room to see if I was there. The teacher nodded and took my attendance. It was like that all the time. No one, not even people that barely notice me, don't turn to see me. It hurt, but I just guided the pain away.
My father said if people are making you weak, you shouldn't tuck the pain away, but you should show that it isn't getting to you. It really did get to me, but I honestly didn't show it. No one needs to know my true emotions I have hidden behind my mask. The rest of first period was easy.
Since we didn't do any work, everyone talked, and the teacher did stuff on the computer. I just wrote, unlike the others. Just wrote down little stories that I would share online in my spare time. Everyone on the internet liked it. But It wasn't Facebook or Instagram or Tumblr or Twitter I would share the link with, I would put it on this little website people went on, called 'MyWrite' (AN/fake website). I knew no one at school went on it, basically because they are all idiots who can't write.
I didn't really care if I was judging, It was true. Besides, who else would know.
The rest of the day to lunch went by in a blur. I sat out of the empty field where they play Lacrosse, sitting under the benches. Eating and sandwich quietly, and drinking an apple juice. Sure it was lonely, but It gave me time to think. Like, when me and Tyler go to the movies, would I run into anyone tonight?
I over heard some of the people's conversation's at school, and a lot of them are going to night. It's not like they'd notice me though. But what if I like, bump into them. Sighing, I pulled out a container of sliced apples and began munching on them. I finally didn't think, just stared at the patch of grass under my feet.
That made me even more gloomy. Not really thinking of anything, and staring into nothing, could make you feel even more sad. Like you were no one. You weren't even in the world, just an object that can breathe. Yeah, that's what I felt, and I probably will always feel it.
Laying on my back, I stared at the top of the bleachers and saw someone's feet blocking the little space on which the floorboard was slightly seperated. But then I just noticed it was a object shaped as a circle. Getting curious, I stuffed my leftovers in the plastic bag and put it in my book bag.
Getting up slowly, I walked out from under the bleachers, and up the stairs that lead to a blue ball. I squinted my eyes and picking up the ball, holding it in my finger tips. In red, bold printed letters it said, ''I'm Watching You.''
