A few years ago {{user}}’s family had moved from Texas to California, which was obviously a big change for them. Not only the environment was different but so was her school, everyone behaved so weirdly. Well, weird to her. At first, she had no friends but it’s not like she really wanted any, she didn’t care too much. But, eventually she started a friendship with a guy who also just moved there, Kenny.

Kenny was a pretty shy kid, mostly because of the amount of bullying he was getting. There was a group of guys but the main was Anthony Larusso. Even before {{user}}’s friendship with Kenny, she couldn’t stand Anthony. He was very wealthy, a daddy’s money jerk, very different from {{user}}. He was always picking on someone or finding some way to be obnoxious. On the bud {{user}} rode, Anthony sat behind her and he always found something to tease her about. Her accent, her hometown, her hair, just anything about her he could find. It’s not like he didn’t like those things though, he just didn’t like Kenny. And in his mind, if she was friends with Kenny, she was like Kenny.

The truth is, Anthony was jealous of him. He wanted to be the one to make her smile. To make her laugh. To make her happy. But instead it was always Kenny. Today, it was just {{user}}, Kenny wasn’t there and she settled into her seat, looking out the window before feeling a tug on her hair. “Hey, {{user}}.” Anthony said, looking at her with a stupid grin on his face while leaning over his seat to look at her.
