Alright, I have a story, sort of a sad and romantic story, I guess.

Alright, we shall begin at the beginning...

Part One:

The Basics. A girl, school drop-out. A boy, a complete mess.
I am the girl, this is my story, and it feels like it happened a lifetime ago, but it couldn't have started more than two years ago.

So I had dropped out of school, one of those expensive schools, the kind of institution that appears more prestigious from the outside than on the inside.
And then I did nothing, absolutely nothing, for about... five months. Yep, just more or less sat around the house in a big wad of depression. And then one day, it was like I just got sick of it; I just couldn't take it anymore. I needed a change or something.
So I went back to school. Here in Australia we have normal school, vocational school (TAFE, or Technical College), and Distance Education. So I couldn't go back to my school, and it was January, the beginning of the school year. So I enrolled in a TAFE HSC (Higher School Certificate - sort of like senior high in America) course.
There are TAFE's all over the place, but the one in my area didn't run any advanced courses, and I wasn't about to do anything less. So I had to wake up as four-thirty every morning to catch the train and then walk to TAFE.
And so I did it. It was over an hour away from my house, but I did it. I wanted a future, I wanted to be something.
And then I got there, and it was like nothing I had ever experienced before in my life, the people were... so different to anyone I had ever met. And I liked it.
I wanted to be these people, they made me want to let go of the person I had been hiding inside my whole life.
See, in the school I had come from, you didn't deviate, it just wasn't done. You believed what you were told to believe, and you liked what everyone else liked, and everyone was the same, and you were told that this was what was meant to be; what was normal.
But I hadn't felt like that, I had felt different.. dirty. Like I was strange for liking what I liked, and not wanted to be like they were. So poppy, so mainstream. It wasn't me, and it wasn't like the people I met. And I loved it.
I just ate it all up. The atmosphere, the excitement.
I began the year so well, top of the class, perfect grades, perfect girl.
And then one day, it all changed.
I was reading on the front steps of F-Block - where most of my classes were. And there were kids hanging out, smoking, drinking, just hanging.
And there was this girl, she was... vibrant, like a shining light, and I noticed her above all people. She wasn't beautiful, or anything, she just caught my attention, and other peoples.
People talked to her, noticed her, talked to her. And I wanted her, not in a lesbian sort of way, but just to be around her, to know her. I thought,
I wonder what it's like to be her'.
My mother once told me when I was nine that I had this uncanny ability to pick the worst person in a crowd of people to be my friend. Like the most damaged, or dangerous, or whatever.
And little did I know, I had done it again.

So I was just sitting there, kind of watching, like I wasn't apart of the world, but some looking down on it all. And then she looked at me, looked right at me. And she smiled, and her whole face lit up And she beckoned me over.
Her name was Gillian, she was in my English class. She looped her arm through mine, and from that moment, we were inseparable.
Or so I thought.

Oooh, this one has chapters.

Shut up, Ethan, or I'll add bits about you in the story.

Well, this has died, I thought it was a good idea. >:C
