TRING! TRING! TRING! Edward groaned as he put a hand over the beeping alarm clock to stop it. He got up and stretched his arms. He wasn’t looking inoltrare, avanti to go to school day. His Biology teacher would surely put him in detention for he didn’t do the project he was supposed to do. Edward took a quick doccia and got ready for school. After making his mother and himself some breakfast and then eating it he stood up and was ready for school.

“Bye Mom!” He detto as he closed opened the front door. She didn’t notice. She never noticed. She never noticed when he invited a friend o when he goes for football practice. Hell, she wouldn’t notice if he danced around the house recitazione like a monkey. She would just sit on her rocking chair expressionless. Edward closed the door and hopped on his cycle. After 10 minuti he reached his school. He got off his cycle and entered. ‘WELCOME TO GROVE HIGH’ A banner detto on superiore, in alto of the door. Edward quietly walked over to his locker where some of his Friends were. Billy and ----- were standing there chatting with each other. Billy smiled when he saw me.

“Hey Ed!” Billy said.

“Hey Billy.” Edward detto after smiling. He high fived ---- and put his stuff in his locker. Edward was going to interrupt in their conversation about sports when a loud laugh stopped him. A girl was on the ground face-first. A bit of blood was successivo to her face. Marcus-the bully- was laughing at the girl. His Friends Sam and Nigel were sniggering as well. The girl turned her face to look at them. Her face was filled with pain and anger. A bit of blood was coming from her nose. She had jet black hair and dark eyes. She had some kind of panda ears attached on her head. She had a white camicia with black and blue stripes at the shoulders. The girl slowly got up.

“What’s your f*cking problem? Huh?” She wiped the blood off her nose. Marcus was surprised at her reaction but he quickly recovered himself. “So te just go everywhere and trip people like that. I’m warning you. te do NOT want to mess with me.” With that detto she turned around and was about to walk away. All the people watching stepped back to let her go. But Marcus wasn’t done yet. He grabbed her elbow and pushed her against a locker. He was about to fight più but Nigel and Sam held him back. Slowly he turned around and walked away. Edward rushed to the girl. Even though the girl didn’t want to he took her to the small infirmary. There was no nurse over there so he took out a packet of ice and gave it to the girl.

“Here” He said. They both sat on a letto quiet for a while. The classes hadn’t started yet so that gave them some time.

“Are te new? “ Edward finally asked. The girl looked at him and nodded. “What’s your name?” He asked again after a while. She put the ice pack down.

“Kitty.” She said.

“I’m Edward.” He said. He put out his hand in front of her. Kitty hesitated but shook his hand. Right then a campana, bell rang. Edward and Kitty got up and went to their classes without saying another word.

*Later*

At lunch Edward was sitting with drake and Billy. They stopped talking though. Because of her. She barged into the cafeteria with two girls right behind her. She looked over everybody and narrowed her eyes when she saw someone else on her spot.

“You!”, Jenny shouted to the boy. The boy –clearly terrified- got up and sat down somewhere else. Jenny walked to her tavolo with her head held high and her Friends at her heel. She pushed Nicole Webster out of the way and sat down on her spot.

“Well that’s one way to scare people.” drake remarked. Edward and Billy smiled. That was when the doors opened yet again and Kitty came in. She looked everywhere to see where she could sit down. Edward gestured to her to come sit with him. Hesitantly she walked over there and sat successivo to him. Billy raised his eyebrow at Edward. Edward shook his head. All of them then ate in silence. The Cibo was absolutely disgusting. After eating two bites of it Kitty threw her tray away. Everyone looked at the ground. The Cioccolato shake fell open successivo to Jenny’s shoes. It slowly reached her shoes. Jenny looked down and gasped. She stood up and walked furiously to Kitty.

“How dare you!” She yelled. She took Drake’s milkshake and spilled it all over Kitty’s torso. Kitty instantly stood up. Billy and drake tried to stifle their laughter’s but Kitty still heard them. Tears came out of her eyes and she ran outside.

“Kitty!” Edward yelled after her. He followed her.

Edward found Kitty in the grounds. She was sitting with her back on a tree, tears streaming from her eyes. He walked to her and sat down with her. She looked at him.

“What?” She asked. Edward shook his head.

“When te ate the Cibo why did you-?” He didn’t need to finish the question.

“I- I can’t tell you.” She said. She had stopped crying now.

“Why? I’m your friend now.” He detto calmly. Kitty stayed silent for a bit.

“I-I have- No. I can’t tell you. Sorry” Kitty said. She wiped her face and got up. She walked inside the school. Edward stayed there for a while. He really wanted to help Kitty. He got up and walked inside as well.

When Edward got home he went through the same routine he always does. He made lunch. Cleaned the kitchen. Washed the dishes. Do homework. Make dinner. Clean dishes. Watch TV. Paint. And lastly go to sleep. He didn’t want to go to sleep. He would just have to wake up to another painful day. But sadly sleep came...
