Alice In Wonderland, chapter 1
I walked into the noisy classroom only to find it go silent when the door I had opened earlier slammed causing me to jump and drop my books all over the floor. God how I wanted to stab everybody's eyes out the way they stared at me. Way to make an entrance! I can see it in the news headlines: "Girl Manically Stabs Classmate's Eyes Out With a Pencil!"
"Ah you must be Alice Way!" said my new teacher.
"Yeh, that's me all right." God how I wished it wasn't.
"You can go sit over there." She pointed to a cheap desk right in the middle of the classroom. Probably to humiliate me during my first couple of weeks. I rolled my eyes then walked through the crowded room and sat at my desk. 10 minutes had gone of a whole load of babbling I didn't understand. I doodled in my book to pass the time.
"Hi."
I looked over to the right of me to see a guy whispering to me.
"Yes?" I know it was rude of me to say it like that but my day hadn't gone too well so far and I was busy and he rudely interrupted me.
"Uh... do you understand any of this?"
"No. I don't think anyone does." Half the class were slyly listening to some music, doodling in their books or whispering to their friends.
He giggled. I hate it when people giggle at me when I've just said something serious. I continued with what I was doing ignoring whatever he was saying. I wasn't interested in making friends. I wasn't interested in making anything to be honest. I just wanted to go through life as quickly as possible.
50 minutes later the bell rang so I stood up and pushed my way past the crowd. Only to here someone shout my name.
"Alice!" I turned around and saw that guy who had been trying to make conversation with me. I looked at him blankly.
"Uh... Hi! I'm Billie," he said reaching out his hand for me to shake. I looked down at it holding my books tight then looked back up at him. No way was I shaking his hand. I didn't know where it had been. Moron.
He moved his hand away eventually when he realised I wasn't going to shake it.
"Can I help you?"
"Uh... well... I just wanted to ask if you wanted to have lunch with me and my friends."
I sighed loudly. "Why should I? I can eat my lunch perfectly fine myself."
"Well. You could get to know some people instead of being such an anti-social bitch for one."
I rolled my eyes. "Whatever."
He looked at me.
"Well? Take me there then before I change my mind!"
He smiled then put his arm around me. Not in a sexual way. More like a friendly way.
"I can see we're gonna get on just fine!"
Usually I didn't like it when strangers touched me in any way. It made me feel incredibly uncomfortable, but for some reason Billie made me feel quite liked. For who I am. The only way I could get friends was if I acted like some preppy freak who is always happy and perfect. And I wasn't going to do that anymore. I had lived almost all my life doing just that. Now though for some bizarre reason someone liked the real me. The only person who's ever liked me for I am is my mum and to be honest I think she's struggling at the moment.
