Only in fairy tales and anime - Brandi B. (e novels to read online .txt) 📗

faces lit up. I frowned. The bell rang and the class filled in. The day went like normal, except today I stayed after in the library. I wanted some peace. It was no different from home really. There was no one there. "Hey Raven." I didn't answer. "Raven!" "What?!" It was more like a growl than me saying it. He was slightly taken aback. He? Oh it was that Gabriel boy. "I wanted to know if we could be friends!" "I don't want your pity, nor do I need friends." He was sitting at my table now. "Why not and I'm not trying to pity you." "Because your mister popular and I'm the outcast. It doesn't work.That kind of thing is only in fairy tales and anime you know." "Why?" "Because that's just how it is." I took off my top hat and twirled it through my fingers before putting it back on. "Sorry boy, but I don't believe in this kind of thing anymore, nope I don't ta ta." With a wave of my hand I started out. "What happened to you?" I stopped and stiffened. "What do you mean?" "Everyone told me that before the break, before I came that your voice wasn't just loud, but the type of voice that you could pin point in a crowd and now you couldn't tell the difference and that you were so nice, so friendly, so kind and caring." " Times change and as for my voice that's how it should be. You've had your fun teasing me with this for your friends entertainment, so if you don't mind please leave me alone and I'll be on my way." My mad hatter top hat was now over my eyes making me look quite dark and evil as I walked out of the library doors and eventually out of the school without a single glance back. I didn't need friends. They only stab you in the back. The good stuff only happens in fairy tales and anime.
The weekend. Bliss or so I thought. F*** my life. -.-

I was walking towards my mailbox Saturday morning when I heard it. "Hey Raven!" Fuck. This guy just doesn't give up. I pretended not to hear. He grabbed my arm and spun me around. "What?" Again it was a growl as I yanked my arm out of his grasp. "You live here?" "Yes, keep your mouth shut about it." He seemed confused. "You don't want people to know?" "No." "Okay, then I wont say anything." I began to walk away again when "Wait!". I sighed. "What now." I live down the street if you need anything." "I won't." "Do you live by yourself?" Now I was getting pissed. "Yes. Why do you care?" My voice was acid. "Well, I do to." "My parents are divorced and live in different houses and I have my own. Are you done?" "Oh that's my situation too!" "Great for you. By." I walked back into my house and slammed the door. Something slipped under the bottom of it. It was his cell and email. Like I cared. I was about to throw it out when I saw the message. 'One of your friends gave me your number so I thought we could text.' "Whatever." I put the paper on my desk in my room. My phone began to buzz. I sighed and picked it up. "Why do you keep pushing people away." Him. Why don't I amuse him, maybe he'll leave me alone." "Because they only hurt you or back stab you in the end. I don't need anyone anyway. Why do you keep trying?" "Because I want to be your friend." "Bullshit." "O.O Is not!" "Most certainly is and I told you. I don't need friends. That stuff only happens in fairy tales and anime." "You keep saying that, but do you believe it?" "Yes." After that he stopped. I sighed in relief. I got changed, fell back on my bed and was asleep.

*dream*
I was standing in the rain and was soaked head to toe. It felt nice. "You'll catch a cold." "So. What do you care?" "Your my friend after all." "I don't have any of those." "Nonsense." The person came closer and I saw they had no face. "No it's the truth."

*end of dream*

When I awoke it was around 6:00 am and for some reason I felt sad. Well then again the only time I don't feel sad is when I'm angry or just not feeling at all. I heard a soft "Tink,tink" and when I looked over there was pebbles bouncing off the glass. I sighed and walked over. It was that Gabriel boy again. I opened the window. "What?" "Morning." "Go away." "I'm hurt!" "Good." My eyes narrowed. "Come say hi to me!" "No." "Don't make me come up there!" "I'm on the 3rd floor how are you gonna do that genius? Go away." "Like this." He climbed the tree close to my window and swung in?" "Get out." "Not until you say 'Hi. Good morning.'" "Not happening. Out." "Your so mean to me!" "Yes I am, now out before I push you out." He sighed. "Fine." He then left. "Finally." I then closed the window and started blasting music while lying in bed. Maybe he will leave me alone. "But is that what you want?" A little voice in my head said this. "Of course it is!" "I don't think so." "Shut up!"

Is it over yet?

Time seemed to fly and that damned boy kept trying. Again, I kept ignoring and pushing him away. Soon it was only a week before break. How the hell did that happen. Summer break I mean. That's really weird. Well over summer I wont have to see him. "The exact opposite!" "Shit." "You were talking out loud." "Whatever. I'll make sure all my doors and windows are locked." "No that's not what I meant, your and my parents are going on a trip together for business and they're bringing us along." "What?!" This time it wasn't a growl it was a snarl. "I don't care, I wont be going, so don't bug me." I had him by the collar, good thing school was over. "Don't you get it yet I DON'T NEED FRIENDS! NOW LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE!" He seemed like he was going to cry. I let go and walked away. When I got home I got a call from my parents. "Yeah?" "We're going on a trip!" "Hear from Gabriel Angel and I'm not going." "Don't be like that!" "I am being like that. I don't like Him and I'm not going." "You're going and that's final!" "WHAT?!?!" "By Rave!" I was infuriated, so I went to the excersize room and pretty much destroyed the punching bag. I put up another one and did the same thing. I did this a couple of times before the doorbell rang. I went and opened the door. "Yes." I looked up and it was him. I tried to slam the door. "I heard your going." "Screw them!" "I'm sorry." I was slightly taken aback. "I didn't mean to upset you with all this." "Whatever. Leave me alone." I tried closing the door again, but he opened it, got in and closed in behind him. "Go away!" I got slammed against a wall. "GET OFF!!!!!!!" "NOT UNTIL YOU HEAR WHAT I HAVE TO SAY!!!" I was slightly surprised. He never raised his voice. I continued to struggle which made him hold tighter. "I really like you!" "WHAT!" Now I was fucken pissed. This joke had gone to far. "Ever since I first met you! I thought you were cool and funny and it really did hurt every time you were mean or ignored me! It hurt a lot!!!!!" And now I was utterly surprised. "No,no,no,no,no" I shook my head. "This only happens in fairy tails and anime!" "Why?!" I realized he was telling the truth and on the verge of tears. "Because that's how it is." I looked down at my feet. "I used to be like you, ya know." "You know nothing about me." "I used to be made fun of and laughed at, and I had no friends, but then I thought 'Fuck them' and I began to be like myself. I found a bunch of friends and here I am." "I don't need friends, and it doesn't matter anyway. No matter how many friends I have, I'm still alone." I finally broke free, and opened the door. "Please just leave me alone. What you talk about only happens in fairy tales and anime." And without a single argument left.

I hate people

I walked upstairs to my room and fell on my bed. "I hate people and I hate my life." After a while of just sulking, I fell asleep. It was around 11:00pm you know. I woke up to the sound of knocking. It was 3:00am. I swear if it was that damned boy, I'd kill him. I walked to the door and there were my parents. "We came early because we knew you wouldn't be packed." "What?" "Today's the trip." My stomach sank to the floor. "Oh. Fine. What do I need?" "Beach stuff." So I went upstairs and got ready, shower,teeth, clothes etc. When I got downstairs there was already a car. My parents took my bags, put them in the car and then got in themselves. Of course it had to be a limo. Fuck my life. I then got in too. He was there so I just put in ear buds and decided to look out the window. Eventually the soft bumping of the car, my music, and how early it was, I fell asleep.
