I plugged in my headphones to my iPod. Tucked it into my jeggin's pocket. I used my long hair to hide the wires. To cover up the wire that went down to my pocket that was hidden between my two white tank tops, I threw on a over sized, tan long sleeve shirt. To also cover my cuts and bruises. I didn't want anyone at school to know that I was abused at home. I already was bullied there. I don't want more. Nor do I want pity from others who don't bully me.

I finshed getting ready and turned my volume to medium. So only I could hear it. Then I climbed out the windows to avoid my dad Spirit. Even if my dad wasn't home, I hated even walking in that room. I remembered the day I was first abused. It was in the living room. I remember the pain that I felt when I was hit with a beer bottle. Why couldn't I have one of those perfect lives? I sighed thinking how great that would be. Why does everyone just hate me. Music is the only thing keeping me here. Plus I always look forward to living my own life as an adult.

Before I got to school I choose my favorite music list to listen to. It took me days to make, but it is seven hours of shuffling music that I love. And every time I get bored or find a new song I change it. But for now it was perfect. I stuffed it back in my pocket and entered the school doors.

I sighed thinking about the comments I may get today. The first thing I saw was Kay. Oh great it seems I may have a bad morning already. She saw me and rushed over with her idiot bodyguards. Great! "Hey there bookworm. You remember Jack and Gilords right? You met yesterday." I just faked a smile. "How could I forget dumb and dumber!" I tried not to laugh at their faces. Let me tell you it was really hard. "Don't talk to them that way! You ungrateful little brat!" I just ignored Kay, until I felt someone grab me ankle. Then I felt a foot on my face. Kay and the idiots laughed then let me go before they got caught. I now had a bruise on my ankle and face. I rushed over to the bathroom before anyone saw me. I quickly grabbed my make up kit and put my skin color blush on my face. Then rubbed a skin cream on my foot. It was quickly covered. I had became an expert on this stuff. I think that's bad though.

I reached my class and ended up being the first one there beside the teacher. I always come an hour before school starts to get ahead on my work. But usally people are here around a half an hour before school starts. So when it was only fifteen until we had to be here I was confused. " where is everyone?" She gave me a smile. "Everyone decided to stay outside until school started. You should join them. I just shook my head no. I like less people anyway. I gave her a reassuring smile. Hoping she'd believe that. I didn't want teachers knowing that I was bullied. They always ended up getting both in trouble because even when you tell the truth the other one lies. Since they cant pick sides we both get in trouble. Unless you had really got evidense. I hate school so much!

I heard the girls outside shouting. What is that about. I rushed out to see all the popular guys coming out. I just rolled eyes and went back inside. Populars disgust me. They get everything they want and more. They dont even care. They think that everyone owe them! It so un-fair! I would be sooooo grateful if people did that for me. But maybe that is because I know what it is like to get nothing but pain and torture. Everything I have I earned by doing work. I mowed lawns or since people trusted me I got to do what the sixteen years old can't even do. I worked for my guitar, CDs, iPod, and computer. If they understood work I think they'd actually cherish things. Not just thrown them out because they dont like it.

School was out. Yay...not. I may hate it but now I have to go home. I sighed and started to walk.

It was about an half an hour and I finally made it there. I took my extra key and unlocked the door and prepared for impact. I was right. "Where were you? You bitch!" I coughed upblood but I could still talk. "At school!" He kicked me again. "It was out half an hour ago!" I just wipped my face and replied. "I walked home." I felt a punch colide with my face. "Your suppose to run! Now go get grocreys! And if your not back in time for dinner I'll lock you in your room for three days until you starve!" I wasn't scared. I'd just run away through my window. Then get back there befor3 he opened the door for me. My papa was such a tool. But he still scared me. In some ways. So I followed his orders and walked out door to go to the mall where they had a cheap mini-mart.

Imwas close to the grocery mart. But I could care less though. I was just happy to know my papa didn't break my iPod. I turned it on and started to sing along to my favorite song: When She Cries by: my favorite band The Soul Less. They were a Christian, Metal band. They were also what kept me alive. I turned up the volume not caring who heard it and started to sing.

(When She Cries. Bold: Maka)

Little girl terrified

She'd leave her room if only bruises would heal
A home is no place to hide
Her heart is breaking from the pain that she feels

Every day's the same
She fights to find her way
She hurts, she breaks, she hides, and tries to pray
She wonders why, does anyone ever hear her when she cries

Today she's turning sixteen
Everyone singing, but she can't seem to smile
They never get past arms length
How could they act like everything is alright?
She's pulling down her long sleeves
To cover all the memories that scars leave
She says, "maybe making me bleed
Will be the answer that could wash the slate clean"

Every day's the same
She fights to find her way
She hurts, she breaks, she hides, and tries to pray
She wonders why, does anyone ever hear her when she cries

This is the dark before the dawn
The storm before the peace
Don't be afraid 'cause seasons change and
God is watching over you
He hears you

Every day's the same
She fights to find her way
She hurts, she breaks, she hides, and tries to pray
She'll be just fine, cause now he hears her when she cries

Every day's the same
She fights to find her way
She hurts, she breaks, she hides, and tries to pray
She'll be just fine, cause now I know he hears her when she cries
She'll be just fine, cause now I know he hears her when she cries

I finished singing and heard clapping. I gasped and turned around. But I couldn't see much. I knew it was a guy because when he spoke he had a manly, husky voice. "Good singing. Liz would be proud if she heard you." I remember that it was Liz from The Soul Less that made that song. But why was he talking like he knew her? And why did that voice sound so familar? "How rude of me! Let me introduce myself. My name is Soul Eater." He said that as he stepped into the light. It really was HIM! The lead singer of The Soul Less, Soul. I wasn't that kind of girl who squealed over celebrities though. So all I said was Cool and shook his hand. I laughed in my head to see his shock. I guess he is a little too use to girls falling for him. But after a while he just smirked and said Cool.
