Chapter 3: Friendship Begins With an Argument

My first day at my new school and already I hate it. We sit in hot rooms in short skirts and slippers with white button down shirts. Every hour I have to ask to leave to make sure I haven't sweated too badly that you could see threw my shirt. I frown at the mirror because the girl in it is used. She is medium height with long thick layered hair. Her lips are pink and shinny. Her face is pale and chalky. Her eyes are brown but hold more wisdom then half these lucky children in this building. The door swings open to the bathroom which cues for my exit.

Back in class every guy I walk by tries to look up my skirt by dropping their pencil in my way. I punched half of them in the face some I walked on their hands. I keep thinking I should sigh up for an all girl school or something. The teachers all check out the girls or just face the boards all the time.

The only kid that seems respectful is a boy I sit by. He is tall and lanky, with a layer of muscle under his shirt. He has long blonde hair and it falls in his eyes. At lunch I walk up to him because he's all alone.

"Umm, d-do you mind if I sit by you." He looks up and so do others. Girls glare at me with hatred and jealousy, guys look at him with looks of envy and me with disgust.

As he looks at me his eyes stay on my face, which is another reason I want to know him. "Sure, why not." He motions to the front of his desk and I pull up a chair.

"Hi my name is Freak. What's yours?" I ask to make conversation.

"Rin." He looks up at me as if I am annoying him just by being hospitable. "What kind of name is Freak any ways? Is it some kind of sluttish nickname? Because I am sick of the sluts in this school hitting on me."

I sit there with my eyes wide letting the anger flip around in my stomach. Tears burn my eyes while he tries to stare me down. "No." I mumble

"What I didn't catch that." He moves in holding out his ear to say speak up."

I glare up at him, "I said no you conceited bastard. I am not hitting on you, I am not lying about my name and I am not a slut you pathetic runt." I say in a controlled pushed through my teeth voice. "I was being nice and trying to make conversation with someone normal. Someone who didn't hate me because every guy in here has tried once to look up my skirt. And every girl has tried to size me up. But this school is full of bastards who think they are all that I guess."

"Now honey you just haven't met the right people," A tall built guy puts his arm around my shoulders. He breath when he talks holds the linger of tobacco. His hand falls on my tit and squeezes. I feel bile rise in my throat and I push away.

I hold a hand out as I start to heave with nothing coming out but air. With money, I have none and rarely get enough food to stay a size four in pants. This new guy takes this as an insult but as I try to breath I find no air so I try to push out my words.

"T-t-t-tobac-to" I dropped down on the ground and curled up into a ball. Rin runs forward and so does a teacher. They probably think sensitive asthma. But no it's different it's all mental.

When I wake up I am in a room on a bed. Everything is white and it smells of dirty sex and medication.

"You ok." I look over to see whose voice this is. It's Rin's and he's looking at me with interest. "What happened?" He gestures to the door.

I am guessing he means in the class. "Tobacco bugs me, so does booze and other scents and sights." I look down feeling ashamed.

"Ok?" He says slowly. "You owe me you know that?"

"What?" I look up confused and feeling even worse than before due to the fact it smelled horrid in this room.

"I had to carry you here and sit with you as the nurse left. You kept saying 'Dad I promise things will get better just give me time.' What's that about?"

I knew what he was talking about it was from a time my dad was my hero and I wanted to make his life better. "It's probably from a nightmare or something."

"You have a note also." He hands me the paper on the outside it says L. My head snaps to him. "I didn't read it ok I just held on to it."

I open it and read;

Freak it is good to know you have finally gone to school. I plan to join you for some chats in a while.

L

Even if he read it, it said nothing important. I held it a little longer and thought about my choices. One, leave and never look back. Two stick around and probably get arrested. Three get out of school and resign up with a different name. I like the latter option.

"Freak I am sorry about earlier but still who has that name?"

"Me." I am still focused on my note and feel it getting heavier. I frown. "One more enemy and still only have one friend." I mumble.

"Make that two because I finally find someone who's normal around here." He smiled at me and I can't help but wonder if I can trust this person. I will have to check up with Zu on this.

"Yeah two friends now." I smile back and
