Don't Forget Where You Belong

I think I've rolled my eyes at least five billion times since Louis and Blake began talking to each other; they spoke of nonsense and sometimes made grammatically incorrect errors and it honestly made me want to scream.

"And then the dude kicked the ball as hard as he could." Louis continued with his story. He's tried many times to pull me into the conversation and even Blake tried once, but I just said "Uh-huh." or "I'm not really into that kind of stuff.".

"What happened?" Blake asks, he was so into the story. I didn't find it interesting, honestly.

"He didn't even kick the ball! He ended up kicking off his cleat and hitting the referee in the head." Wow, so interesting. Really, tell us more and please: note the sarcasm.

"And that got your team disqualified from the match?"

"Yep, it's so stupid because there's proof that it was an accident and the ref had to go to the emergency room to get the spikes removed from his left cheek. It was pretty nasty." Okay, so there was blood. That's interesting.

"Whoa."

"Yeah, but that's not even the grossest thing that I've ever experienced. One time, I accidentally--"

The bell for next class rang, interrupting his next story.Thank you, School God.

"So what class do you have next?" Blake asks Louis; I walked next to Louis.

He looks down at his schedule. "Forensic Science." He looked over to me and smiled. I awkwardly smiled back, but it probably came out more like a grimace.

"Nice. I have English. See you at lunch, then?"

"Sure."

Blake then left away from us. "Science is on the third floor." I say walking toward the stairwell.

"Are you okay, love? You seemed kind of... weird in home room." Love. So cliché and British of him.

"Yeah, I get that a lot." I say, avoiding his stare.

"Get what a lot?" The clueless and ignorant never cease to amaze me.

"Look," I turn to him, stopping at the edge if the hallway. I was trying to avoid attention and blocking of the halls. "Louis, I'm a very different person compared to the rest if the people here. Save yourself the embarrassment and save yourself now before it's too late."

"What?" He was completely confused. Do I really have to spell it out to him?

"Since you are new here, I'll cut you some slack, but honestly I don't even know why you're even speaking to me. I'm surprised Blake didn't say anything to you last class."

No, don't cry. Don't show emotion. Oh my God, Gwendolyn. You just met the boy and you're getting emotional.

His eyebrows were furrowed and his lips were slightly parted. "What are you talking about?"

"Let me spell it out for you," I said calmly. "Everyone here thinks I'm some freaky weirdo loser chick. Every person that's ever came in contact with me has been ridiculed just for being seen with me."

"I seriously doubt that everyone thinks that of you." He shifted his weight onto one foot and crossed his arms.

"Well, Louis, you know my name. Not my story." I concluded the conversation and finally began walking again. The halls were halfway cleared and I had to hurry to Forensic Science or Mr. Lance would lock both Louis and me out.

Louis never brought up the conversation For the rest of the day. In fact, he's barely spoken to me the rest of the school day. Just when I thought he'd speak to me, I'd look over to him, eating for his to say something, then he'd just sigh and continue whatever he was doing.

At lunch, he hung out with Blake, Cassandra, her best friends Dawn and Sam Showers, they were sisters, and Jennifer Hayes, a good friend of Blake's.

Good thing he saved himself he saved himself before he embarrassed himself.

But why do I feel so... angry? It's like I wanted to be friends with him, but I just pushed him away. I should try talking to him tomorrow... No, I will not. I cannot. I'm not going to. I'm fine with being my own friend.

its actually good to be your own friend. You don't have to worry about you secrets getting out or even falling in love... But wouldn't it feel great to have someone to vent all of my secrets to? Wouldn't it be amazing to be able to fall in love with someone? To get to know someone and fall in love with their personality? The looks are just a plus, but...

I don't even know.

Only time will tell.

Notes

Yes, I know this chapter was kind of boring, but it is only the beginning, so stuff will happen in the next chapter. I promise.

i also apologise for it being so short, but there's not really going on right now, but they will get longer as the story progresses. :)
