I have seen people getting into big, nasty messes. I've seen people getting into big fights, which caused a lot of bleeding and all.

But, I have never felt so out of place, until today.

Watching Ryder and Chase make out was pretty awkward.

Ryder looked like the dominant one, as he held Chase against up the wall.

The whole room was silent, and you could only hear thier moaning sounds.

I stared at them. Before clearly my throat loudly.

No effect.

I purposely coughed out, and they finally pulled away from each other.

Chase was the first one who made an eye contact with me.

"X-Xandra?" He shuttered out.

Ryder turned around.

He looked shocked to see me.

"I hate you guys. I fucking hate you both. I mean, I am your best friend, and you guys didn't tell me. Don't you ever try to talk to me again." I said, angrily, glaring at the two of them.

Both of them were silent.

Say something. Come on, give me a silly excuse at least.

"What's going on, here?"

Ryder stared at someone who was standing behind me.

I turned around, just to find an unfamiliar man, staring at me.

This man, must've been in his early twenties. He was cute, with his blonde hair and baby blue eyes.

Oh, he even had dimples.

"Ms. Black, aren't you?" He smiled as he asked me.

I nodded, not recognising him at all.

"I'm, your new English teacher."

I stared at him, he stared back.

"Well?"

"What?"

"Where is the class?"

"Oh, this way."

I led him the way, not looking back at Ryder and Chase.

$$$$

A poke from left side.

A poke from right side.

Another poke on my right arm again.

"Guys, stop it." I said, walking into the cafeteria.

Ryder and Chase didn't stop, they kept poking me, on both the sides.

"Stop."

They didn't.

"Please Xandra, don't be like this. You know we didn't mean to do it this way." Ryder whined, for the hundredth time.

"I'm your best friend guys. How could you hide something so big from me? Don't talk to me again."

"Please. We'll tell you the whole story today. Don't stay mad at us." Chase whined too.

"Okay. Today, meet me at the park opposite to the grocery store, near my house. I need to know the whole story. Okay?" I asked, and both of them nodded.

"Now, let me eat peacefully." I said, as I went straight to the table, where all my fake friends were waiting for me.

$$$$

"Hey, Xandra." I ignored her.

"So, are you going to give me the silent treatment?" She asked, and I simply stared at the door of the classroom, waiting for this period to get over.

"Look, I just wanted to say, I'm sorry for what I said that day. Cole explained it to me that I was wrong." Jessica explained, but I actually couldn't care less.

"I'm in no mood to talk to you or Sam anymore." I said, as I started doodling at my notebook.

"Sam? Why are you not talking to Sam?" She asked me, and I rolled my eyes.

"You aren't going to believe me, if I tell you the truth about Sam. She's your bestie, isn't she?"I asked her, bitterly.

She shook her head.

"My best friend is Cole. Sam is just a close friend."

Her best friend is Cole? Oh fuck off.

"Yeah right." I said, with an eye roll.

"But, yesterday, he fought with me." She said, and I signalled her to continue.

"He fought with me, because he thought I was the one at fault. He said, I should'nt have lashed out at you like that."

"Why do you hate Bethany so much?"

"You...wouldn't understand."

"Please, trust me. I will."

"How would you feel, if people treated you like you were unwanted? My parents, they have always preffered Bethany over me. My teachers, they too prefer Bethany over me. My ex-boyfriend, Travis, also preffered Bethany over me. I feel like, I am a burden in my family. Bethany is beautiful, talented, and probably everything I will never be."

She's jeolous of Bethany?

"But, there are people out there, who want you to be you. Like, Brody and Cole. They aren't like others. Plus, it is not like Bethany is doing this on purpose. Those who truly want you, will always be there for you." I said, smiling sadly at her.

Jessica smiled back at me. She threw her arms around me.

"One more thing." Jessica said, as she pulled away from the hug.

"What?"

"What is your problem will Sam?"

"Uhm...it is a long story."

"And we have plenty of time."

"Fine. So..."

I told her, everything about Samantha. How she vandalised my old locker. How she is the reason why I fell of the stairs in the first place.

After hearing my story, Jessica looked beyond angry.

"How the fuck could she do that?!" She nearly screamed, almost forgetting that we were in class.

"Ms. Black and ms. Jules, out of the class, now."

Oh Fuck!

$$$$

"Yeah...so that's how we can keep this thing between us." I told Jessica for the hundredth time, as we walked out of the grocery store.

Jessica said something that she had to meet Brody here, and I told her about my meeting with Ryder and Chase.

Looking around, and across the road, I saw Mason, along with Ryder and Brody in the park.

As soon as they were near me, I waved at Mason.

Mason was quick to wave back, as he left Ryder's hand and started running towards me.

One should always watch as he or she crosses the road.

I was about to tell this to Mason, but I couldn't as a highpitched scream left my mouth.

I couldn't believe my eyes.

In a flash, a black car drove across the road and hit Mason along the way. The car stopped a little ahead.

Mason lay  alone on the road, in the middle of a pool of his own blood.

I quickly ran towards him, as Jessica and the two boys did the same.

Taking Mason's head on my lap, I noticed that he had a back head injury, as my whole dress got covered with his blood.

"Don't lose your consiousness. Stay awake please." I whispered, but it had no effect because Mason passed out already.

"This isn't a fucking playground." A very familiar voice said, and I swear my heart beat stopped. This voice came from the black car.

My face paled.

I looked up at the source, only to find that the same black car drove off.

Ryder picked Mason's body and told Brody to call the ambulance.

My mind still couldn't take in the fact that I just heard James Cage's voice.

And that,

James just hit Mason.
