Chapter 3: I Hate People!

😍 "All these people moving through life, all around me, and no one, not a single person, knows what I am going through."

- Lee Thompson 😍

😃" At Cafeteria "😃

😁" Max's POV "😁

We walk into the Cafeteria and I look around it to see if I can find an empty table but then someone grabs my forearm and I resist the urge to hiss in pain.

But I do snatch my arm away from the person. I look to the side to see that it was Scarlet. She looked me confused and I shake my head.

"You can sit with us.", she says and I shrug and nod my head.

We walk over to the line of people who are getting food are at. It was a short line, thank God.

After we get our breakfast and get through the line I follow behind Scarlet and Tyler to a table with a girl sitting at it.

"Finally! We only have like 10 or so minutes to eat and get to cla- wait, who the hell is this?", she asks and I roll my eyes.

I set my food on the opposite side of the table and sit down.

"My name is Max.", I tell her and she nods.

"I'm Haylee.", she says with a smile as if her and I have been friends forever. Well not literally but, ugh! I'm sure you get the point.

As I silently eat my food cause, well, if it wasn't obvious already, I'm not used to sitting with people.

"Hello?! Earth to Max?!", I hear someone say and I look up to see Tyler.

"Scarlet told me your schedule. We have the first few together and then the last class together.", he says and I nod getting up picking my bag up and then throw my trash away as we walk outta the cafeteria.

😁" At First Period..... English "😁

As I look around the class I see an empty desk in the back by a window so I go to it. I sit down and then the bell rings.

Tyler sits at a desk at the front. The teacher walks in. Well I'm assuming that it's the teacher.

She looks around the room and when her eyes land on me she smiles.

Shit. I know that look. I think to myself and I slump down in my seat.

I so don't wanna go to the front of the class. In front of the whole class, I'm just gonna end embarrassing myself with my clumsiness. I think to myself.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, we have a new student today.", she says and motions for me to come to the front of the class.

I shake my head then she gives me this that says, 'Child don't make me drag you up here by our hair or ears'.

I internally groan and stand up and start to walk to the front of the class. Once I'm almost to the front, I almost trip over thin air but I catch myself before I fall. I get to the front of the class and turn to face the other students.

"Um.... Hi.", I say with an awkward smile and awkward wave.

"Uh, my name is Max, and that's about it thanks.", I say fixing to go back to my seat before the teacher asks me a question.

"Don't you have a lastname?", she asks and I give a frustrated sigh.

"For the last freaking time today! I have no lastname!", I exclaim angrily and walk back to the seat I was at.

"Oh.", the teacher mutters to herself and looks up with a smile.

"Well students, I want you to give Max a warm welcome and I want you to be nice to her.", she says and I roll my eyes.

"As if. I highly doubt it.", I mutter to myself and I see Tyler turn around and looks at me in confusion. I roll my eyes then look out the window.

😳" 5 Minutes Later "😳

I wonder what it's like to be an animal. Ya know like a bird or a squirrel? It's probably peaceful, or at least it used to b- I think to myself until I feel someone shaking shoulder and saying my name.

"Max?!", I hear Tyler exclaim and I'm pulled outta my thoughts and look up at him.

"This class is over.", he says and I nod.

"What do you think it would be like to be an animal?", I ask him looking out the window but gathering my things.

"What?", he asks and I sigh.

"What do you think it would be like to be a bird or maybe even a squirrel?", I ask and he shrugs.

"I have no idea. It'll feel as if you're free.", he says and I nod.

"Good.", I say as I put the last of my things in my bag.

"Alright, let's go.", I say and he nods.

We walk out of the class and into our next class.

😚" Art Class "😚

Okay, so, I know this has nothing to do with art since we're in art class but, I JUST FOUND OUT THAT ONLY 11TH GRADERS AND UP GET TO DO CHEMISTRY!!! I-I wanted to learn how to make chemicals and explosives and what not!

"What are you thinking about?", I hear Tyler ask and I roll my eyes.

"I just found out that only 11th graders and up can do chemistry. I wanted to learn how to make chemicals and explosives!", I exclaim and I get funny looks from everyone.

"What?! Do you have a problem?!", I exclaim glaring at them and they all turn back to the front of the class quickly.

"Alright class, so I see that you all know that we have a new student.", the art teacher says and I sigh in relief as I hear her say, 'I'm not gonna make her introduce herself if she doesn't want too'

Well I heard her say it but her mouth didn't move. I furrow my eyebrows in confusion.

"What's wrong?", Tyler asks in a whisper I look at him in confusion.

"I... Did you here what she said?", I ask and he looks at me confused for a second and then his eyes widen.

"Holy shit, did you just read her mind?!", Tyler exclaims in a whisper.

"I don't know!", I exclaim back in a whisper.

"One way to find out.", he says in a whisper and I'm confused at first then I make an 'oh' expression.

"Ready?", he asks I nod my head.

"Tell me what I'm thinking.", he says and I nod.

Why the hell am I stuck with you? He apparently thinks.

"Hey! Now that's just mean!", I exclaim and he laughs.

"Sorry.", he says

"Max, would you like to up here and introduce yourself?", the teacher asks and I shake my head.

"No ma'am.", I tell her and she nods.

"Well, I'm Mrs.Brown, if you ever need anything you can come to me.", she says with a smile and I nod with a small smile.

I look over towards Tyler and see that he looks surprised. I roll my eyes and glare at him.

"I do smile from time to time ya know.", I tell him and he chuckles and back towards the front.

"Alright class, since it seems like Max doesn't wanna do any introducing things, we'll start on what we left off on yesterday. So please, take your sketch books and continue what you were doing yesterday. Tyler, will you please tell Max what we did yesterday?", she asks and he nods.

"So basically what we were doing yesterday was drawing something that we feel deeply about. Basically you're drawing a meaningful picture.", he says and I nod and start to get my sketch book out.

I'm gonna need a new sketch book soon. I think to myself as I look and see that I only have three more pages left outta the I think 120 pages or something like that.

✌" 50 Minutes Later "✌

I'm almost finished with my drawing. My drawing is basically, a drawing of a girl locked inside of a cage that's in a deep dark hole. She looks as if she's screaming for help and is reaching outta the cage.

I just have to do the shading and what not but I don't have enough time considering we started about 5 minutes into the class time.

I start to put my things in my bag. And as I'm almost done I felt my phone vibrate in my back pocket.

I look up to see if the teacher is paying attention which she's not. She's reading a book at her desk.

I pull my phone outta my pocket in confusion. I know, no one has my number and I don't usually notifications on my phone so, why the hell did my phone vibrate.

I push the power button and the screen lights up. An Unknown number message pops up on my screen.

What the hell? I think to myself as I open it. I look at the message to see what it says.

"Hey, this is Scarlet.", I read the message and I'm shock.

How the hell did she get my number?

"How in the hell did you get my number?!", I reply back. Less than a minute later I get another message. I look up to make sure the teacher still isn't paying attention which, she's not.

"You left it on your bedside table thingy and I figured, free for all. Besides, you had no password so it was easy.", she says and I get irritated.

The bell rings and I shove the last little bit of my things in my bag.

"I have next class with you too, right?", I ask him and he nods.

"After next class you have a couple classes with Haylee and Scarlet. We have lunch after that. You're Supernatural power training is after the couple of classes you have with them, then you have the last few with me.", he says and I nod.

"God, how many classes a day do these guys get?", I ask myself out loud and hear a laugh.

I look up to see that it was Tyler and I glare at him. He raises his hands in surrender as we walk to our next class.

🥲" At Cafeteria Cause I'm To Lazy To Write Another Class Period Thingy "🥲

Scarlet, Haylee, and I walk into the lunch room and see a crowd of people in the middle of the room.

You could hear people chanting and yelling 'FIGHT', you could also hear them cheering.

"Oh no. Not again.", Scarlet and Haylee say in unison and I look at them confused.

Haylee grabs my wrist and drags me to the crowd with them.

"I don't even wanna be here much less see who's fighting with who.", I mumble to myself thankfully no one could here me over the yelling.

Scarlet and Haylee push through the crowd and I end up getting squashed a few times.

Once we get to the front of the crowd I see Tyler and some dude that's like two times his size.

"Look man, I didn't mean to do that.", Tyler says cowering down with his hands up in surrender.

"BUT YOU STILL MADE ME SPILL MY FOOD ON MYSELF!", the bigger dude yells and balls his right hand in a fist and throws up in the air and back like he's going to punch.

Welp, looks like it's about time for to step in. I think to myself I take a few steps forward and feel someone tug on my arm.

"What the hell are you doing?!", Haylee exclaims and I yank my arm outta her grip. I continue to walk over to the dude without answering Haylee.

I grab the dudes arm and he turns around to look at me. His eyes a gold-ish brown.

"Look dude, I don't know who the hell you are and quite frankly, I really don't care.", I say to him and he growls I roll my eyes

"Ahh! I'm so scared!", I say sarcastically which I guess ticked him off even more cause I had full attention.

I look behind the giant dude and motion for Tyler to go. He's hesitant but when I give him a death glare he goes.

"You think I'm scared of you, please! I've had to go through way, WAY worse.", I say to him in a bored tone.

He growls again baring his teeth. You could see his K9's. They look like a dog's K9's. I look down at his shirt and laugh a little. He had spaghetti noodles and sauce all over his shirt.

He looks down to see what I'm looking and laughing at.

"Man, you got all ticked off cause you got spaghetti on your shirt.", I laugh and he looks at me angrily.

"At least I'm not some ugly girl who thinks she can do whatever the hell she wants.", he says looking at my face. I'm guessing he's looking at the purplish bruise on my face and my slightly swollen nose.

"Dude, I'm sure if you were shoved really hard into a bunch of lockers face first you'd have at least some kinda mark!", I exclaim getting a tad bit upset.

"And I don't do whatever the hell I want! If I did I'd literally be trying to kill you right about now cause you have no idea what I've done, who I am, and what I've been through!", I yell at him shoving him to the ground.

I start to not feel like myself. I mean I know I am me but just not me. Like as if I can't control my body.

No. No no no no no no! I exclaim in my head. Please not this again!

I start to feel my hands heat up and I look down at them. My hands engulfed in flames of fire.

I could here someone yelling at me but it's muffled.

I feel numb and then darkness. The last thing I think is, God, I hate people!
