Yeah High school is shit, but the people who go there  are even shittier. I despise everyone but I still act nice to them, I just smile and move on with my day as they shove me against lockers cause they have no moral reason or sympathy for anyone. That's the way it is and that's how it will always be, just remember 'keep smiling'. I tell myself that over and over whenever someone crosses me or does something to make me upset... it's kind of like my own little system.

Sarah was sitting in English class jotting down notes and listening carefully past all the whispers the other students were spreading across the room. Someone threw a paper at her and she sighed, she never knew what she did wrong. Sarah always kept her feelings in she didn't like showing them. 'Keep smiling' Sarah whispered to herself and she let out a soft sigh and kept smiling, once class was over there was only study hall left and she was caught up on all her work she didn't feel the need to go. As she was leaving school the most popular guy in school '𝓙𝓪𝓶𝓮𝓼 𝓕𝓸𝓼𝓽𝓮𝓻' that not so nice guy at school. He was the typical asshole jock everyone had at there school, he knew he was hot and he used it to an advantage. Sarah knew she was attractive but didn't think she was hot.

He pushed past her and she felt a boost of confidence as she hit his hand away "don't touch me!" She crossed her arms a fire building inside her that she could barely control. "chill Preppy" he laughed with his friends and she made a serious face  which didn't do her much justice as they all began to laugh at her. She walked away abruptly and all she heard were laughs fading away as she bursted out the school tears falling out of her eyes, James of course didn't feel any remorse he didn't care about her, he only cared for himself and he didn't realize that was a problem.

Sarah was walking home not in the best mood, she felt as if someone was watching her, she knew she sounded crazy but she had a feeling. There was a black car following behind her slowly and she noticed it and started walking faster. She was right by her house and she walked inside quickly. She locked the door breathing heavy "what the hell-" she held her hand over her head confused on what was going on. She dropped her backpack by the door and walked upstairs to her room. Her parents weren't home and she knew it they were never home which kind of made her happy, she liked being alone but after what just happened she wished she wasn't alone. She laid down on her bed and fell asleep slowly.

James was walking home with some buddies and the same black van that was following Sarah came up and some of his friends noticed and they ignored it and kept walking, James didn't care and he walked inside his house welcomed with a warm greeting from his mom and his alcoholic father was passed out on the couch and he sighed and walked upstairs a million thoughts running though his head, he fell asleep tired from his long day he had.

Sarah woke up with a yawn and she stretched quickly getting out of bed. She grabbed a pink sweater and decided to wear ripped jeans —she wanted to be a little extra today— she pulled on her shoes and left her blonde curly hair down and walked downstairs and grabbed an apple.

James woke up with a groan he didn't want to go to school but he knew he had to or his dad would lose it. He got up and changed into his jeans and a tight white shirt that showed off his abs and muscles perfectly. He slicked back his brown hair and walked downstairs to see his dad having his 'breakfast drink' he rolled his eyes and walked out the door quickly trying not to get in trouble with his father.

When Sarah arrived at school people didn't even look at her, she was just invisible —and to be honest, she kind of liked it— she walked to her locker and opened it with a smile she didn't know why she felt happy but she did. She grabbed her text book for her first class which was 'Math' she left the text book and some of her papers in her hands to realize that was a mistake cause right when she turned around she smashed right into James Foster and she gasped

"Watch where your going!" James yelled at her and she bent over picking up her things as fast as she could, her happy mood disappeared instantly once she looked up at him, she felt embarrassed she knew everyone was looking at her now she was yelling at herself in her mind to 'keep smiling' but she knew she couldn't do that anymore. She stood up quickly with a mess of papers and a book in her hand and she walked away quickly and James let out a scoff as he watched her walk away.

She went to Math early and sat down in her seat and started going over math problems some studying wouldn't hurt her studying actually calmed her. She did like 10 Math problems that were way advanced for her age and the bell rang which meant class was starting and she put her paper of all the math problems in her Math text book.

The lesson wasn't anything special, she didn't learn anything new she just listened as the teacher droned on and on about the same problem for 15 minutes which made her frustrated that this was what Honors math was like. Something that took the class 20 minutes to do took her 5 minutes or less. Once the bell rang she got up quickly and went to her next class which was science.

I'm good at everything- except science. Science has always been my struggle and for it being my struggle that means I have science with all the regular people and it made me a little upset but I just shrug it off... most of the time. I walked into science class to see James sitting in my seat and I walked over "that's my seat.." I crossed my arms angry "this isn't even your class-" I said and furrowed my eyebrows confused on to why he was even here. "I got a schedule change Preppy" I watched him roll his eyes and I felt that fire build up inside me again and my face was getting heated. He pointed to the seat next to him "you can sit here" he sighed and she just nodded sitting down.

I knew what I was doing I told her to sit next to me, not cause I like her but because I can copy her work easily and she won't even notice and if she does notice I'll just flirt with her. The lesson started and I looked over her shoulder copying her notes in the most subtle way possible —she had really nice hand writing— I shook my head at
My stupid thoughts. She looked up at me confused and I just sat still trying to play it off cool "are you copying my work?" I cleared my throat and shook my head "no- I was just looking at how beautiful your hair looks today..." she didn't buy my bluff at all which made me a little frustrated but I kept going "your eyes look beautiful today" I smirked and she rolled her eyes —I'm doing my best here! This always works! What is wrong with her...— I looked back at my work and I saw her taking glances at me and I ignored it.

Sarah was at her locker putting her books and papers away and when she finished she walked out the school alone —per usual— most of her 'friends' really didn't hang out with her for a reason she could never explain. As she was walking the same black car from the other day pulled up beside her and she gulped a little and walked faster as the car moved at the same speed as her.

James was walking home and there was a black car following behind him and he heard muffled screaming and kicking and he started to panic, before he knew it he was pulled into the van by three guys and his face was covered so he couldn't see anything he heard a girl screaming and felt around for her but they held his arms down and he felt a striking pain to his head before he passed out.

Sarah was screaming and kicking and she heard another person get pulled in the van and she heard them hit him on the head and she started crying and shaking with fear and soon that dizzyness and pain hit her head before she passed out
