Zombie high!

Serenity- I wake up with a yawn, stretching my arms and climbing out of bed. Today was the last day of school before summer vacation and I wanted to look my best today because I was going to ask my friend Troy If he wanted to go with me to the carnival after school. I pulled my brush through my curly hair and put on my makeup. I hurriedly put on my uniform and shoes before rushing out the door. I ran down the street and just managed to catch the bus. I sat down next to a kid who was around my age but seemed kinda older at the same time. But that was normal for people my age. Like me for example, I looked like I was eighteen even though I was 16 and a 1/2. I look out the window noticing everything seemed somewhat out of place. I shrugged it off and looked at the kid. "Hey, what's your name?" I ask.

Mason- "Oh, hi there. My name is Mason Callivas. What's yours?" He stuck out his hand, waiting for her to shake it. She looks pretty nice...We should get along fine. (Had no idea where to go with that, so sorry it's kinda short.)

(It's okay!) "serenity Jackson!" I say taking it. He was kinda cute and he had this sort of sense about him that I couldn't quite figure out. But he was actually nice to me, unlike other unnamed men that shall not be named at the moment. The bus stops outside of the school and opens its doors. I suddenly remember where I had seen him before. He was in basically all my classes and he was the guy who I always wanted to be partners with but I always felt too shy to ask. And usually I'm not shy. But it was just that sense that made me feel that way. I get up and grab my book bag, just about ready to leave when I turn around to say something. "We should get together sometime. You know, to hang out!" I say cheerfully, smiling while starring into his eyes. A chill ran down my spine before I was shoved into a seat opposite him by Brock, the school bully. "Move it Blondie!" He said making the other kids laugh. A tear ran down my cheek as I got off the bus as fast as I can. I hated coming to school most of the time and the only reason I came was because I didn't want my mom to find out I was skipping school because of my being bullied. I ran through the school until I got to the janitors closet. I went inside and locked it, trying to stop myself from quietly crying. If I wasn't bullied for my looks, it was my smarts or how I acted. And I was just at the edge of my sanity at the moment which always made me cry like a little girl. I sat down in the darkness and just let myself cry, not knowing whether anyone could hear me or not.

Mason- "What is wrong with you?" Mason shoved the guy and went off to find Serenity. He heard crying in he janitors closet and opened it slightly. "Hey, it's Mason. You okay?" He opened it a bit more and sighed, closing it and sitting next to her. "I'm really sorry. Some people just need to keep their mouths shut instead of setting off on people." He wiped away some of her tears and rubbed her back, trying to comfort her in the best way he could. She didn't deserve this, and he knew that. "It'll be okay."

Serenity- "I know it will be. It'll only take me a couple of drinks to forget about it." I say while smiling, laughing a bit at the thought of me drunk. I knew I would look like a complete and utter fool if I did that. I hug him and feel something I had never felt before. I brush it off and release him from the hug. "Thank you for comforting me. I really needed it." I say smiling a bit while sniffling. I hear the bell ring for first period which means the auditorium was completely free of any void of life. And that meant I could finally practice my talent show performance in peace and without any judgement! I get up and offer my hand. I help mason up and then open the door. "I'll see you second period!" I say smiling while running down the hall and out of sight. I get to the auditorium, walking up the stairs that led to the stage and grabbing my guitar from the back. I sit down on a stool that was set in the middle of the stage and start to play the tune I had made up which reminds of the lyrics. I close my eyes, taking a deep breath before starting to sing. "Don’t think about tomorrow, We’ve only got today. There’s nothing that I want from you, Not a word you have to say. You are all I need And all I can defend, All I need to hold on to If the world should end. In my imagination I could not have made this up. In a world stranger than fiction Ours is no fictional love. I can see the you Under your second skin. I can feel your heart beat quicken, Quicken and then slow. There’s nothing else I need to know And there’s nothing you need to pretend, If the world should end. And the sky tonight is luminous, For all the wrong reasons And every doorway is hiding something. And if this world should all Come crashing down, I wouldn’t care at all. And if there’s no tomorrow, I’ll have today again. There’s no time for sorrow, When there’s no such thing as time. And if the darkness will descend, Don’t need a savior or a friend. I can say I’ve really loved, If the world should end."

(The song is 'if the world should end' from Spider-Man turn off the dark. Thought the song was appropriate for the theme ;) I would advice listening to it while reading the lyrics! It makes more sense if you do it like that!)
