Jeremy POV,
I walked down the halls finally turning a left and down into the auditorium someone stopped me though putting a hand on my shoulder "hey kid, their taking attendance find your teacher and get a name tag, ok?" I nodded in reply and he turned and sat in his chair I had read his name tag in this time if I remember it read Frits Smith. I found my home room teacher mrs. Lindbergh who then gave me a name tag "here you go Jeremy, I'm glad you could make it" I smiled "m-me to do you k-know what this is a-about?" In reply she nodded her head "we're giving away rewards to the students" I felt a little nervous I never did like these things I'm always so nervous I'm going to be picked, I don't know I might be picked... "Thanks mrs. Lindbergh" afterward she motioned for me to take a seat in the section of seats that were of her classroom. I nodded to her once again  and sat down as they began with the math geniuses definitely not going to be me I watched as the familiar and non-familiar faces go up and come down it went like that for the rest of the math Olympians, band, choir, "alright everyone it's come to our attention that we haven't ever given out awards to those who rank the highest in our collection of artists and we've given you all the opportunity to vote and here are our candidates there's Cade Anderson, Emeila Jiss, Reeya Miller, Annali Johnson, AJ, Jeremy Fitzgerald-" I heard my name which automatically sent me into a void of nerves I started to tremble and face had warmed itself. "Please enter your votes now" I could hear the crowd stir as they entered their votes oh no oh no what if were picked if I went up their I might get so nervous I'll break down and cry, don't worry Jeremy your fine it's all good I mean think of it you always wanted them to notice the artists of the school and now they have be happy I nervously smiled yeah, right I waited for the last of the voters as the principal took them and put them into a computer "the votes have been entered" he pauses to add the dramatic effect "in first place we have Emeila Jiss in second we have...Jeremy!!" He looked at me happily I was friends with all the staff members, I then stood up feeling the over students eyes on me on my face was a deep blush as I walked to the stage taking the ribbon "t-th-than-th-thanks.." I managed to speak to the principle as I walked onto the stage and looked down to the floor covering my face with my hands deserving some awes from the audience. I felt my face heat up so much as tears threatened to roll down my warm face mrs. Lindbergh noticed and brought me off stage while she gave Mr. Brenner ((yeah Reeya I know don't look at me like that..))a really mean glare once back in the crowd I gave mrs. Lindbergh a really tight hug she hugged back of course because we do this often it wasn't awkward, I was shaking, trembling in her arms stuffing my face into her chest not wanting to see all the eyes that were on me the whole auditorium was silent except for my cries and mrs. Lindbergh's soft words "are you alright Jeremy?" She asked in a sweet yet concerned tone I lifted my head and nodded " you think you'll be able to go back up stage?" I looked around should I? I nodded "y-he-yea-yeah" she smiled at me and motioned me back onto the stage. I had been wiping the tears off my face as I awkwardly walked back up to the stage as I received some paints and a paintbrush in which case I was really great full for "t-th-tha-th-thank y-you" I nodded at the principle and mrs. Lindbergh they gave me a gentle smile and turned to their original place "now where were we..? Oh yeah! Ms. Miller comes in third with ms. Johnson following soon after!!" He yelled into the microphone sending a loud screech bouncing off the auditorium walls. There were many yells from the crowd most of them covered there ears some of them still continued to stare at me where in this case didn't help to much, why did I have to cry?! I just made everything worse for myself this is terrible now what's going to happen now that everyone knows I'm sensitive? why me?!?... I could now walk to my seat finally!! I ran to my seat and sighed once I got there I relaxed my tense muscles and fixed my hair so that my eyes were still not very visible for the most part. I was still soar from last night and we all know my dad had decided to beat me last night yet again and then make my life that much more miserable it's alright though just as long as no one find out I'll be fine The Rest of the awards were given out to there rightful owners and the school meeting was over beginning what would now be third hour, science. After science is math then lunch after lunch is homec and after homec is gym after gym is choir then I can go home and try and get some rest... I sighed to myself while walking up the stairs to get to science class running into a school bully by accident ((omg!! Just when I said that Michael Jacksons bille Jean started playing XD)) "oh, it's the cry baby" he laughed to himself as his other buddies came from behind me including the new kid oh no I hesitated before I started to sprint down the hall they ran after me we darted down the stairs. They caught up to me and carried me down into the basement I struggled under the leaders grip as he lead me toward a private room in the school, (it was the old detention room but they don't use it anymore it's now a place that's for students and students only), "p-pl-lease s-at-sto-stop!!" I pleaded to them they all laughed "sorry you little berry but your in the point of no return now we can do anything we want to you now" the caboose of the group slammed the door behind us and locked it. I gulped nervously he was right they could no one would be able to hear me not with the way the walls are built (the school was originally built to house the mentally insane so the walls prevent any sound to go threw its kind of nice that things can be that quite) the leader of the small group sat in the only desk in the room the one that would have been Mr. Brenner's " grab him" he commanded his comrades as they sneered and snickered listening to their leader "now, put him up" they put me up on the wall clipping my hands and feet to it (they installed this to the room themselves as it was useful to them I personally hate it since I was their number 1 victim) why am I so clumsy..? I asked my self I was trembling again scared out of my mind especially of the purple guy I think that's what I'll call him for now.. " now we've all gotten to know Jeremy very well.." Their group nodded "but one person.." He motioned towards the purple guy who came out of position for a moment bowed and went back into position " and some of us almost fell in love with our #1 victim" he sent a glare throughout the group I shivered I-in love..? I felt a shock of slight horror fill throughout my entire body the verge of crying reaching my throat making it real soar " so, Vincent, would you do the honors of checking his forehead for us..?" He smirked "p-pl-plea-pl-please d-don't!!" I begged. They shrugged giving horrible laughs that would escape their unwashed mouths. Vincent nodded coming closer to me I moved my head away from his reach but he only persisted and grabbed my chin "let me see~" I blushed still fighting against him "n-n-no!!" I lost he was to strong for me he moved my hair away from my eyes as he looked into my blue and emerald orbs people call eyes eh... What do I do now? it feels like he's staring into my soul.. Stare into his? No!! To my surprise a tint of red covered his cheeks the leader handed Vincent some make up remover only making the hole in my stomach grow "what do I do with this?" "Just put it on his face" I shook my head no. Vincent ignored me as he grabbed my chin once again applying the damp rag on my face slowly removing the foundation revealing my cuts and bruises. His face twisted into one of horror "what is this?!" He yelled the leader looked over and scowled " who touched my little play boy?!?" The leader, Kyle yelled out did he seriously just call me "his little play boy"..? Yep... Wow.. "Your little play boy?!" Yelled another one of the gang members " he's mine!" Yelled the only girl in the group "shut kristy he's a boy your lesbian!!" They all began to fight one another now well except Vincent he just stood there with a face that screa-"what..?..the hell?" Hey! Never mind... It doesn't matter, all of a sudden out of nowhere my arms and feet were free!! I looked around before I realized it was the purple guy who let me go. He looked at me and smiled "hey you get outta here before you get seriously hurt" I only nodded and in a moment of panic I left the room running into class "s-..so-sorry I-I..I'm late..." The teacher looked at me with an odd face "excuse me but who are you..?" Wait, what..? "I-it's me j-je-Jeremy.." That's when it hit me oh! My hair!! I moved it back over my eyes receiving an 'ohhhh' from the teacher and my fellow classmates. My day went on mostly normal for that matter what a terrible morning no kidding I mean... Little play boy!?! Are you kidding me?! I guess not, that's a first one he's never called me that before and hopefully it doesn't happen again.. I walked outside of school the bell ringing for the third and last time yep, that's right today was the last day of school. For me I never knew why but we dont have school during the winter but during the actual summer we have school makes no since right? Oh well I decided against going home I've had enough today as it is so instead of heading home I had walked to the state park not to far from my home I had a pass for all year long since I come so often. Iy was a nice day sure it was a little chilly but it beats going home so till the park closes I'll just stay here. That way I can avoid my dad as much as possible though he might know I'm at the park he just won't know where exactly. I crossed the bridge and looked out onto the river "look look mom it's the pine tree God!!" Yelled a near by little girl who was about the age of four I laughed "yep! A-and would you l-look at that" I pointed to the river "I-it's root beer f-falls!! B-but don't jump I-in you'll make the p-park gods angry.." " ok I won't, I promise!!" She and her parents passed as I nodded to the couple politely and they did so back.
