Stand in the rain
Kim
"Bye,Kim!" Jack called.
"Bye,Jack!." I said with a fake smile. Uggh. I hated being alone.
I waved my hand,with the smile still on my face. Finally I ran inside my empty house,and up to my room. Did I mention that Jack and I were neighbors? He walks me home every day. I slammed my door and collasped on my bed. Just thinking.
"Am I really a freak?"
Okay,maybe I should explain. I was kinda,sorta being picked on at school-not that the gang knew. Not even Jack knew.
It wasn't getting beat up,or anything like that. No,I could take ANYONE down in a fight. No,it was remarks,insults-the usual. I used to block them out,but they just got to me,you know?
Like everyone else,you're probley going to tell me to put them in their place,and everything's going to be fine. But it's hard,their the popular clic-and I'm...well...I don't really know what I am. Just,not one of them.
Sooner or later,I have to face my fears. But I don't know how to. It's-it's just so confusing!
I decided to mess around with my iPod. I finally turned on iRadio and listened to it. (AN:Donno if that's actually a thing,but I'm using it anyway.)
"Up next is "Stand in the rain" By Superchick!" The annoucer said happily and played the song. I carefully listened to the lyrics,and relized how similar this was to me.
"She never slows down.
She doesn't know why but she knows that when she's all alone,
feels like its all coming down
She won't turn around
The shadows are long and she fears if she cries that first tear, the tears will not stop raining down
So stand in the rain
Stand your ground
Stand up when it's all crashing down
You stand through the pain
You won't drown
And one day, whats lost can be found
You stand in the rain
She won't make a sound
Alone in this fight with herself and the fears whispering if she stands she'll fall down
She wants to be found
The only way out is through everything she's running from
She wants to give up and lie down.
So stand in the rain
Stand your ground
Stand up when it's all crashing down
You stand through the pain
You won't drown
And one day, whats lost can be found
You stand in the rain
So stand in the rain
Stand your ground
Stand up when it's all crashing down
Stand through the pain
You won't drown
And one day, whats lost can be found
So stand in the rain
Stand your ground
Stand up when it's all crashing down
You stand through the pain
You won't drown
And one day, whats lost can be found
You stand in the rain" When the song finished,I exited out of iRadio and downloaded it. I replayed it over and over again. I finally put it down and sat down on my bed.
"So stand in the rain. Stand your ground. Stand up when it's all crashing down. Stand through the pain. You won't drown . And one day,what's lost can be found." I sighed as I thought of the chourus.
"I know now what I have to do..."

I was nervous as all get out,but I still walked towards Donna,Lindsay,and their drones. I made fists so hard my knuckles turned white.
They smirked when they saw me. Lindsay spoke up,"Why if it isn't Kim Crawfish,the royal b-"
"Save it,Lindsay!" I spat cutting her off,they looked shocked. "I am sick and tired of y'all bullying me,and if you don't stop it,I will!" I said rasing my voice.
Donna spoke up."Oh,yeah? And who's going to stop it? Face it,no one cares. All we were saying was the truth." She took a step closer,so they were nose to nose. "Your just a weird,freaky outcast nobody likes."
"She's right." A new voice spoke up. I turned around.
"JACK?!"
Never before had my heart felt so torn. I was breaking down at that fact about what Jack thought. Shattering on the inside.
I almost didn't hear him continue. "I don't like her,I love her."
"H-h-he..."
"For one thing,there's no such thing as normal,and she's certainly not a freak. And she may be a outcast to you,but to me she is a wonderful,beautiful person,and you are stupid not to see that." He came up and hugged me. Donna and her lot gasped and ran off,creepily at the same time.
"Did you really mean that?" I asked when we pulled apart.
He smiled. "Every word."
"Kim,I don't really know how to ask you,or how you feel...But would you be my girlfriend?" He asked nervously. I smiled and kissed him on the cheek.
"What do you think,Brewer?"
