God Help The Outcast
Preview 3
You know the worst thing about Walt Disney High? The amount of orphanages around this place! I mean, like, come on? How many freaking orphans can live within such a short area? But no one, other than the girls who live in my orphanage, or "Pixie Hollow home for girls" and my best friend since infancy, Peter, know that I live there. And I want it to stay that way. I know from watching how people are around Peter, that when they know you're an orphan, people give you sympathy and treat you with kid gloves. I freaking HATE kid gloves!
"Tessa, you wanna ditch English today?" Peter asked his best friend. She was kind of just staring into space, not paying attention. "Hello? Earth to Tessa!" He said, waving his hand in front of the blonde's face.
"Sorry, I zoned out. What were you saying?"
"Wanna ditch English? I'm feeling like going to the Neverland café and getting something super greasy to eat!" Peter said, grabbing his green leather jacket out of his locker.
"Do we have to?" Tessa groaned. "Can't we ditch somewhere else? I'm getting a little sick of that place." Peter looked up from where he was standing and saw one of the guys from his English class walking down the hall with his older cousin. Peter smiled at the guy and waved at the kid and turned back to Tess.
"Fine, we can go anywhere you want! Just as long as I don't need to see Uncle Bart today." Peter said, as he and Tessa started walking down the hall. Peter's Uncle Bart was one of the English teachers at the school, and he happened to be Peter's own English teacher. Peter looked back and noticed the guy he had smiled at earlier was still standing with his cousin, and Peter sighed inside. He shook his head before looking at Tessa. "So, Miss Bell, where are we going today?"
"Somewhere fun. What about the Skull Rock Café? We haven't been there for a long time!" She said overexcitedly.
"Sure, Skull Rock it is!" Peter smiled, making Tess blush slightly. Peter noticed a girl from his math class at the other side of the hall. She had light brown hair tied back in a bun. "I'll be right back. I need to ask that chick from my math class to take notes and cover for me. I don't wanna be in that class either." Peter ran across the hall, leaving Tessa quite angry, because she really hated that girl.
"Hey, Wanda?" Peter said as he got to the girl.
"It's Wendy." The girl said brightly.
"Yeah, right. Sorry." Peter blushed. "I was wondering if you could do me like the biggest favour in the world?"
"It depends what the favour is." Wendy said, narrowing her blue eyes.
"I was wondering if you could maybe, possibly, take notes for me in math class? I have an important meeting with my social worker." Peter lied. One thing about Peter Prescott that often surprised people was how easily he could lie. He was brilliant. His lying skills were incredible.
"Oh my goodness! Are you okay?" Wendy asked, worry evident on her pale face.
"Yeah, I just need to have a meeting about my current living situation." Peter smiled softly. He knew from things that he had heard around the school that Wendy wouldn't ask him anything because she was too nice to upset anyone.
"Of course I will take notes for you, Peter." Wendy said, smiling brightly at the brunette boy in front of her.
"Thank you Wendy. You are a life saver." Peter said, kissing the girl on the cheek before running back to Tess.
"Hey, what took you so long?" Tess asked bitterly.
"Just getting her to cover for me. Now, shall we go?" Peter said, bowing overdramatically, gesturing for Tessa to down the stairs.
"Don't be an ass Petey, let's go." Tessa picked up her bag and the pair walked down the stairs and straight out of the building.
The pair hopped on a bus downtown so that they could go the Skull Rock Café. The Skull Rock Café was a little dank café at the other side of town from the school. It was always quiet there, because the food was infamous for being terrible, and the waitresses were always so rude. But Peter and Tessa loved it there, because that was where his parents took them for meals when they were children. Tessa's parents gave her up for adoption when she was born; they were teen parents not ready for the responsibility. Peter's mom died when Peter was five years old, and his dad died when he was eight. Ever since then, Peter has moved from home to home, before finally settling in at the Hangman Tree home for boys; a home that Peter had grown to love. For a while, Peter lived with his young Uncle Bart. Bart was Peter's dad's much younger half- brother, having only recently turned 30. But Peter and Bart never seemed to get along.
"Peter, look" Tessa said, pointing at a sign in Skull Rock Café. The sign was promoting a karaoke competition. Tessa loved hearing Peter sing. He had a great voice, but strangely he was very unconfident when he sung. Strangely it was the only thing that the Prescott boy wasn't confident doing.
"Tess, I ain't gonna sing." Peter said, sitting down at the counter. Tessa frowned, and her face began to turn red. "No, Tessa, don't do the face thing! It's weird!" No matter how much Peter told her to stop, she didn't seem to take heed. "Fine, I'll do it! But I'm not singing on my own!"
"Good! I'll sing with you." Tessa said, smiling, and her face returning to its normal pale colour. "What do you wanna sing?"
"I don't wanna sing anything. But if I need to sing something, you can choose."
"Uh, no! I think you should choose!"
"Fine. How about… 'I'm Just A Kid' by Simple Plan?"
"Perfect! Let's do it!" Teresa said, running up to the organiser, who took the request and Peter saw him say something to Tessa. She smiled brightly at him, before running back to Peter. "We're up first. Let's go."
"Urgh!" Peter groaned, walking up to the stage. The pair took hold of their microphones and the music began.
I'm Just A Kid by Simple Plan
Performed by Peter Prescott and Teresa Bell
Peter
I woke up it was 7
Waited till 11
Just to figure out that no one would call
I think I got a lot of friends but I don't hear from them
What's another night all alone?
When you're spending everyday on your own
And here it goes
Both
I'm just a kid and life is a nightmare
I'm just a kid, I know that its not fair
Nobody cares, cause I'm alone and the world is
Having more fun than me.. Tonight
Teresa
And maybe when the night is dead, I'll crawl into my bed
Staring at these 4 walls again
I'll try to think about the last time, I had a good time
Everyone's got somewhere to go
And their gonna leave me here on my own and here it goes
Both
I'm just a kid and life is a nightmare
I'm just a kid, I know that its not fair
Nobody cares, cause I'm alone and the world is
Having more fun than me
Peter
What the hell is wrong with me?
Don't fit in with anybody
How did this happen to me?
Wide awake I'm bored and I can't fall asleep
And every night is the worst night ever
Teresa
I'm just a kid
Peter
I'm just a kid
Teresa
I'm just a kid
Peter
I'm just a kid
Both
I'm just a kid
I'm just a kid and life is a nightmare
I'm just a kid, I know that its not fair
Nobody cares, cause I'm alone and the world is nobody wants to be alone in the world
I'm just a kid and life is a nightmare
I'm just a kid, I know that its not fair
Nobody cares, cause I'm alone and the world is nobody wants to be alone in the world
Nobody cares, cause I'm alone and the world is
Having more fun than me
Tonight
I'm all alone tonight
Nobody cares tonight
Peter
Cause im just a kid tonight
When they stopped singing, the other customers in the café applauded them, making Peter blush slightly. Peter was the master of feigning confidence, but he was still a little kid at heart and no matter how much he pretended to be sure of himself, he was still very shy inside.
"Tessa, we better get back to school." Peter said, looking at his watch. The pair quickly settled their tab and got the next bus back to school. Walking through the halls of Walt Disney High was very quiet. Tessa left him to go to her next class, which was Gym, at the other end of the school, leaving Peter to go through the school alone. He walked past the notice board and noticed a sign-up sheet. He eyed it for a moment before smiling and signing his name onto it. He stepped back and smiled.

Author's Note – Hi guys, so this is the last official preview before the story officially kicks off. I wanted to give another little sneak peak of the story before getting it completely underway.
Okay so in regards to the little Question at the end of the last preview-the answer is(if you didn't guess in this chapter) Peter. There was only one person who guess correctly and that was SaintSparkle. Well done, and that means you get to choose the big group number at the end of the first chapter(the first REAL chapter)
I will be doing little questions like that all the way through the story, some will be easier than others, but all will have the same prize… The chance to choose a number for the next chapter.
Song featured: I'm Just A Kid by Simple Plan
Okay, so the characters introduced in this chapter were -
Peter Prescott(Peter Pan) 14 year old freshman whose look-a-like is Dylan Everett and sing-a-like is Max Schneider created by me.
Wendy Darling(Wendy) 14 year old freshman whose look-a-like Chloe Moretz and sing-a-like is Taylor Swift created by Angierae101
Teresa Bell(Tinkerbell), 14, year old freshman whose Look-a-like is Elle Fanning and sing-a-like is Sara Barellies created by RosemaryAlysse
So please, Read and Review this chapter…because similar to how Tinkerbell needs applause to live, I need feedback to live…Both positive and negative welcome.
Thanks guys.
