People say they want to be friends with someone. And everything is fine, right? For a while, that is. But the person really doesn't like that other person. And the usual thing happens....when secrets are shared, they get told, rumors are spread everywhere, even when they aren't true. I'm sure most people have done that, or have had that done to them, in their life time, at least once. It always happens, no matter what.
Heh, I've had it happen just recently. Plently of people at my school pretend to be my friend, but then make fun of me for certain things. Especially this past Valentine's Day. Here's the story...
Since my first day at the school, I had been crushing on this guy, Jereme Green. I told the only 2 people I trusted, Tymber and Emma. (I learned the hard way that I can't trust Emma with things like that.) Emma then wrote a note to Jereme a couple days later during science class, gave it to him, then he showed the letter to everyone in the class. I'm sure you can just guess what the note said. And so by the end of the day (we only had one hour left after that), EVERYONE knew that I liked him. I couldn't escape it. Everyone that was like best friends with Jereme was teasing me, even the people who had been my friends.
So, back to the main idea, a week before Valentine's Day, the school was selling these cards that you could buy with either flowers (roses) or candy on them. On the day of delivery, Tymber, Emma and myself were all surprised when I had received one. I opened it up, and just reading that is was from Jereme freaked me out. Emma said that my face turned red, and I actually started to cry a little. Tymber grabbed it from my hand and read it, seeing something I hadn't. She showed me.
I really lost it then. I could hear Jereme and all his friends laughing at something, probably at me, but none of them were watching me when I looked. When the bell rang to sound the beginning of 1st hour, Jereme didn't say a thing to me, and I didn't even want to ask him anything. It took me through all of 1st hour, and half of second hour to calm down. I showed everyone the card, and they all thought it was a prank. I thought the same.
In second hour, I found out that it all WAS a prank. And that Jereme didn't even write it. I showed Kevin in my second hour, and he recognized the hand writing right away. "That's Alex's hang writting." He said that the moment he saw it. I knew then. Thanks to Kevin, I was no longer going nuts trying to figure it out.
I told Tymber and Emma the next time I saw them. They weren't happy. Emma kept saying that she couldn't figure out how anyone could play such a cruel joke on someone like that.
Fourth hour is the class I have with Alex (the one who sent the card) and some other people who pretend to like me but I KNOW they don't, along with Leann, someone who pretends to like me, and does it well too. But anyway, once I sat down at the table, Leann turns to me and asks, "Did you get one of those cards this morning?" I gave her a kind of evil look. Thats when I figured that everyone besides my really close friends at the school (and the teachers of course) knew about it.
Tymber spent the night over at my house that night (since there was no school the next day). I got out the book that I kept phone numbers in, and we started calling people that I haven't talked to in a long time. (Nice talking to you again, Chance!!) She saw that I had Jereme's number in there (yes, Greeney, I still have it too), and she said to call him. I asked her why and she said to ask why all that had happened. So I dialed the number, asked for Jereme...
He kept asking who was talking to him, and I wouldn't tell him cause I knew what he'd do...hang up. Then after a while I finally told him and he was about to hang up. So I just quickly asked him why they all did that to me. He said he didn't even know they did it. That Alex had done it while he was talking to a teacher during a lunch break.
Not really. I kinda do because he always has been honest with me a lot (even though he doesn't like me). But I don't know about this one. Maybe he did know about it, but just doesn't want to tell me. I don't really care anymore anyway. I still have the card, sure, except the candy (Brandon and Kevin took it second hour). I look at it sometimes, but not often.
Most of the people who teased me about the card were supposed to be my friends....but the thing is, as I'm typing this, I realize that the only ones who teased or bugged me about it was the females....People like Brandon and Kevin and Brad and all them other males I showed the card to didn't say a thing about it. They were actually nice about it.
