Dear…whatever I should call this thing…
Here I am, at my new school. Though, right about now, I wish I wasn’t. Did Mom and Dad know what they were getting me into?! I mean, kids here curse all the time, they drink and smoke as if they were drinking water and breathing air, and there is so much relationship chaos, that it has made me glad to be single. Not that every kid here is bad. There are a couple good ones.
So, to commence with the introductions.
The first person I met was Blair. At least, I think she was the first. She’s beautiful, pale, and I think a vampire. But rather than being helpful like I had hoped from the kids in this school, she was the exact opposite. She gave me three new nicknames (Kid, Corina, and Freak, if you must know), she got everyone to mock me with her, and she even got me drunk. I had barely seen alcohol before I met her. But, not an hour afterward, there I was, letting her give me shots. I guess she just knows what buttons to press. After all, no one calls me a “daddy’s boy” without being proved wrong. And I think she has some sort of power that makes people crave whatever she wants them to crave. Cheater…
Up next was Adrien. He came in fairly soon after Blair. He was drinking with her when I walked in, and he only encouraged her mockery. He was an absolute jerk, and acted almost like her crony the way he kept backing up everything she said.
Then there was Jay, and her brother Daryl. Jay seems pretty nice. At first, she just kind of ignored me and spun in circles. But, over time (yesterday especially), we talked a bit more. She seems rather nice. Hyper, but nice. Like a puppy all wrapped up in the smallest form of a human you can imagine without being a legal dwarf. No offense to her. Puppies are great. I have one, of course. Well…she used to be a puppy.
Anyway, getting off topic. Her brother Daryl is like the Normal Force to her Gravitational Force. He’s exactly equal and exactly opposite to her. He’s hyper, small for a guy, and seems like he could be a great guy. But, to clash with all of that, he is surly, harsh, and utterly cruel. The first time I met him, he was with Blair and she got us all drunk. I mean, just yesterday, I told one of my first actual, meant-to-be-funny jokes. Sebastian (I’ll get to him in a minute) laughed, and everyone else giggled or the like, making me smile sheepishly. But Daryl just looked at me and said “hey, Kid can actually smile!” Well, grand Seb came to the rescue, and they had this short, strange conversation about how everything is a lie…I don’t know, I didn’t listen very closely.
Now…KJ. Kjara, I think her full name is. Lord knows if I spelled that right, though. At first, I thought she was an evil little creep. She didn’t say much, but when she asked what species I was and I told her Vampire, she scooted closer to me with this weird look in her eye. It startled, and I have to admit, frightened me a bit. But, the next time I saw her, she seemed too mad at Daryl to really notice me. And after that, for awhile, she seemed pretty nice. What she and that Daryl kid were arguing about, I have no idea, nor do I care. All I know from Seb is they are having relationship problems, and that’s about as deep as I want to go with that.
Dai, I guess is next. What can I say about her? The first time I saw her, she scared me half to hell. She gets this gleam in her eye, and whether you know her or not, you can be assured she’s up to something. And whatever that something is, you’re going to be dealt the short straw. She’s pretty, I’ll give her that, but she looks like she’s killed someone, and it’s hardened her from the inside out until nothing is left but sarcasm and stone. It’s terrifying. And of course, when I met her, she saw how scared I was. I hate my stuttering. So, rather than leaving me be, she…kissed me. My first kiss. It was awful. Absolutely awful. I wanted so badly to punch her in the gut and let her be done with life, but you can’t punch girls, and I would never punch to kill. Coma is one thing. The little deaths that bring total obliteration is quite another.
Enough of the girls and evil people. Let’s get to the good ones. First off is Joe. He’s one of the worst chain smokers I’ve ever met. He has a short, almost nonexistent fuse, and an explosive temper. He is sarcastic and witty, making fun of anyone that comes within ten feet of him (or so I’ve heard). He’s infamous for his scalding comments. And yet, he is rather nice, once you suffer through all that. Seb told me that he must really like me to be as nice as he was to me. I worry about him a bit, though. He coughs a lot, and I know it’s probably from the smoking, but that doesn’t make it any less unnatural.
And I saved the best for last. His name is Sebastian, but everyone calls him Seb. He is the nicest, most brotherly person I have ever met. He can read minds and communicate telepathically, so we’ve had several private thoughts exchanged, more than I at first thought possible. He sees me for who I am, and who I could be. A pretty nice kid, I guess. When I told a couple little jokes, he said he was proud of me and to keep going on the track I was on. And he told me I was one of the few nice kids he knew at this school. I really don’t think he has a mean bone in his body. He was even nice to KJ when she punched him in the stomach with a bear hand. He’s patient, tolerant, and, it feels awkward to say this, but I’m sure the girls think he’s die-hard sexy. I wouldn’t know about the matter, but Blair certainly seems to love his long hair. He has practically made himself my big brother, and my body guard on Tuesdays. Or so he told Daryl.
As for what has happened to me so far…there are some things I’d really rather not talk about. But, quick activity notes. I went swimming in a nearly frozen lake, was nearly eaten by an Orca (which I have a strange suspicion was actually KJ), I have called an ambulance, I have gotten drunk (stupid Blair), I have played “I Never”, I have kissed a girl (not like it was my choice, anyway), I have been scared to death several times over, and I have survived. So far, so good.
I guess I’m supposed to sign this thing?
