Life Sucks, But We'll Carry On Anyway *SLOW UPDATES*

Frank's POV-

Clara walks in, and sits in her usual spot next to me.
"Hey Melody" she greets.
I nod, acknowledging her existence.
"Wow, how you look like such an emo freak today. Today Black Veil Brides, huh? I love that band!" She says.
"Do you want to listen to them with me?" I ask.
She shakes her head, "no... I mean, I like them, but I just have to be in the mood, you know?"
No I don't know... "Yeah..."
The teacher gets our attention, "today, we are working on sedimentary, I forgot, and metamorphic rocks, complete this sheet, I don't care if you talk as long as you get it done."

He hands us the sheets, and I leave it where it is, not intending to even look at it as he doesn't check our work.

I put in my other earphone, and grab my phone, starting to read fanfic, waiting for the lesson to be over.
Just as I'm getting into it, I get rudely interrupted by Clara who unplugged my earphones, causing Marilyn Manson to blare in the classroom.

"Shit..." I mutter, quickly muting my phone, as Clara laughs and everyone turns to look at me.
"Melody? Why did you do that?" The teacher comes over to me.
I sigh, shooting Clara the death glare, "sorry sir" I mutter.
He nods, and everyone goes back to their work.

I discovered Clara has stolen my earphones, and phone.
Ugh not this again....
I turn to her, seeing she is talking to the people behind us.
I tapped her shoulder and she turned to me, smiling.
"Give em back"
She laughs, "no, you have to be more social! Quit being a sad little emo, if I leave you like this you will go cut yourself from being isolated"
What she said doesn't even make fucking sense.
"Just give it back" I try again.
"Not unless you let me do your makeup, I'll make you look like a real girl. Right now you look like an emo boy to be honest"
I hid my inner smile, of being referred to looking like a boy.
"I don't care what I look like, give them the fuck back." I said, getting annoyed now.
She raised her hand and the teacher picked her.
"Melody said the f word at me!"
I sighed.

The teacher came over to me, just as the bell went for recess.
Everyone, including me eagerly stood up, and as Clara walked past me, I snatched my phone and earphones out of her hands.
She glared at me and I sarcastically smiled at her.
I shoved one in, and pressed play on Sleeping With Sirens.

The teacher approached me, as I grabbed all my stuff, everyone else has already left.
"Melody?"
"What"
"I'm kind of getting worried about you, you hardly ever speak to anyone. Is there anything going on? You can talk to me you know" he said.
"Nothing's going on" I mutter.
"Can you look at me while I'm talking to you please?"
I looked up at him.
"I don't believe that there's nothing going on."
I saw out the corner of my eye,Mandy downstairs waiting for me, with Evelyn.
"Can I go now?" I say.
He nods, and I leave, going downstairs, dump my shit in my locker and walk to Mandy and Evelyn.

"Hey guys." I say.
"Hey"
"Hi"
"Melody, you never eat anything...." Evelyn points out, to my hands which are only holding my phone.
I shrug, "I ate this morning."
She nods, "well guess what!"
"Yea?" Mandy and I both ask.
"Connor asked me out!" She says smiling.

I knew that Evelyn was bisexual, so deep down I thought that I may have a chance with her, I hid my disappointment as hiding my emotions is something I've grown good at.

"That's awesome! He's so hot!" Mandy chimes in (with a haven't you people ever heard of closing the goddamn door).
They were both looking at me, expectantly.
"Uh, yeah that's great Evelyn. Happy for you"
She smiled, "thanks Mel"
I nod.
"Sooo...." Mandy gives me a mischievous smirk to me.
"What?" I ask.
"Gerard...." Mandy starts, and Evelyn has a questioning look.
"Where?!" I say.
"Whose Gerard?" Evelyn asks, wanting to join in.
Mandy points behind me, "Melody's crush"

I look behind me, seeing Gerard standing on top of the stairs, near the entrance to the library, next to the bin.
He's standing with a few people I assume are his friends, eating a packet of chips.
I quickly turn away when he looks in our direction.

Evelyn is smirking, "want me to go talk to him?"
"No!"
She starts laughing, "I'm joking, relax"

I relax and the bell rings, and it's time to go to history for me, where I have one friend in that class, so it won't be that bad.
