Saint Cassian Boarding School was hell. You had recently moved to Uranium City Saskatchewan in Canada. Being from the city in America, the change of envirornment was hard to adjust to. Your family had moved there for a change of pace, a small town to unwind and get away from everything.
You missed the city and you missed your friends. You kept to yourself most of the time, everyone knew everyone in Uranium City and you were the new kid. You felt... Out of place, a burden to everyone.
You sigh, mentally preparing yourself to get lunch, grabbing your stuff from your locker. You sat alone. It felt lonely. Everyone already had their established cliques and friend groups foe years, you felt so alienated.
As you turn around, preparing to walk to the cafeteria, you flinch, a boy had been staring at you without a word the whole time.
It was Ezra Lamb, the younger brother of Penny Lamb. You had felt bad for Penny, she got bullied for being "weird" and was constantly called a lesbian. Ezra was weird too to say the least... But he sold Ritalin and Dexedrine to kids for ten dollars a pop so he was less made fun of than Penny.
"Hi- a. You are new." He deadpans, aggressively keeping eye contact with you.
"Hello. You're, uh... Ezra Lamb, right?" You say nervously, forcing a smile.
He doesn't smile back, he just silently looks at you with that goddamn stare. It takes him a few seconds to reply.
"Affirmative, I am Ezra Lam... buh." He says, gaze intensely fixed on you. Jeez, does this guy ever blink?
"You will be my friend. We shall go to the cafeteria now." Before you can protest, he grabs you by the wrist and pulls you inside the cafeteria.
