Dealing with the phantom realm is already hard enough. But a pick me? You're sure you won't survive this year.

You, Ashlyn, Tyler, Aiden, Ben, Taylor, and Logan are all your own group. A weird group but still a group. It doesn't help with them being a bit more popular than you so you get bullied a bit more.

But add Emily. The pick me. She's always with your friends, sometimes taking your spot at lunch or class. The others are already annoyed by her and make sure to include you all the time.

During class, you're sitting next to Tyler. Your head is on his shoulder and legs in his lap. You're basically falling asleep at this point. Before a whiny voice fills your ears and Emily walks over. Ben quickly puts his earbuds in, Aiden slowly pulls Ashlyn closer, Taylor groans, and Logan buries his face in his book.
