Well thank you, your reviews cheered me up once again! If it wasn't for you guys, I'd probably think how much of an idiot I am :p

~Maria, I suggest you listen to the songs I told you, I am sure that you'll love them! :D And don't you dare buy me an One Direction T-shirt...*evil glare* If you do, it'll be just a waste of money since I have no choice but to tear it and burn it... xD

Anyways, enjoy...

Chapter 5

The guys were laughing too much. Some students were too depressed. The teachers were too strict. Everything seemed to get on my nerves, and I didn't know why, it just did.

Since I woke up, I had an odd feeling that someone would do something bad to me today, and my heart was beating fiercely while I was waiting to see what would happen. I didn't know what it was, so of course I couldn't prevent it.

"You okay?" someone asked me. I turned around only to see one of the cheerleaders who unfortunately chose to sit behind me in class. Grrr. I hated her more that no one could ever imagine. I didn't let anyone know, though...They would think that I am an idiot because a hottie is following me everywhere and I don't like her. I wonder how her friends, or whatever you can consider them put up with her! She doesn't know anything apart from in behaving or talking in a seductive way.

I didn't speak to her, I just nodded and turned around so as the teacher wouldn't scream at me that I must not pay attention to anything else except for the lesson.

I hate her.

I think I hate everyone.

Out of the blue, someone threw something that seemed to be a paper at me. I picked it up from the floor, wondering who might have passed me a note. But when I read it, I couldn't help frowning.

"Wanna go out with me tonight? We can hang out at my place, nobody will be home... ;)" the note said.

I turned around, only to see Mary, one of the most popular girls in the school winking at me. Every guy was practically undressing her with his eyes, but she wouldn't go out with them no matter how much they would beg her.

Why me?

She was tapping her nails against the desk impatiently, waiting for me to answer to her. As I was ready to shook my head and tell her no, Alex looked at me as if he said 'Go out with her or you are dead!'.

"Why don't you go out with her then?" I wrote on a paper and passed it to him.

He looked at me in disbelief when he passed me the paper. "For God's sake Ryan, she is asking you out! Of course you're gonna say yes!"

"But I don't like her."

When he saw this, he spent the next ten minutes staring at me in disbelief, probably wondering why I didn't like her. What an idiot.

Things didn't get any better in the cafeteria. Alex, who always wanted to gossip, told the guys about it. They were all staring at me, asking me why I said no. I could see that they were jealous of me, but I didn't quite understand the reason why. Were they jealous of me because a bitch asked me out? Were they jealous because they wish they were the ones she'd ask out?

Society is so fucked up.

"If I were you, I would say yes! I mean, who could say no?" wondered Josh.

"Me. I said that I don't like her." I told them.

"But why don't you?" asked Alex. "Come on now, she is crazy for you and you said no?"

I nodded and rolled my eyes for the millionth time today. "I have told you so many times that I don't like her!" I almost screamed. "I just don't! If I don't, why should I go out with her?"

"Look what you have done!" Josh said and pointed at the cafeteria door, motioning for me to turn around and see the matter.

I guess I shouldn't have turned around.

Mary was crying her eyes out, but, at the same time, she was careful so as she wouldn't soak her clothes with tears or ruin her make up too much. Her friends were running behind her, trying to comfort her. What a fake person! was the first thought that came up to my mind when I looked at her.

"See? She is crying for you!" Alex said and looked back at me.

"I don't care. I don't like her, so why should I care?" I asked, wondering what they would say.

"Because you hurt her feelings and broke her heart." said Josh and continued looking at Mary with pity while checking her out at the same time.

"What?" I exclaimed and burst out laughing. "You can't probably hurt someone who doesn't have any feelings! If I cut her open, I bet that her heart would be made of stone. She is heartless."

They were both looking at me with their mouths hanging open as if I was some crazy guy who had ran away from a mental clinic. I guess they didn't have to say anything or tell me off, because they couldn't. They knew that I was right, but they wouldn't accept it. If they would, then they would be afraid that other guys would become more popular that they are. Who cares about their social status anyways?

You idiot. You are the one who cares, even though you think that you don't. You don't want to care, but you do. You have no choice but to care about it cause you are afraid of letting them know that you wanna be yourself. You are a pathetic coward and nothing more, I told myself.

The more I was sitting there, the more I was suffering. "I'm coming in a minute," I told them, stood up and started walking to the boys' restroom, trying my best to avoid Mary and her stupid girl friends.

Then my heart stopped beating fiercely, and I didn't have this strange feeling anymore. I knew that something bad would happen, and it did.

Someone had painted my locker a hideous neon pink colour in the middle, and it was fuchsia on its edges. It looked like it belonged to a way too girly girl.

What the hell..?

And there was Lynn and her friends, chatting and laughing near her locker which was a few feet away from mine.

What she didn't know was that I already knew it was her idea. What she seeemed to be so unaware of was that I was gonna get my own back at her.
