Just a Freak

Sly Fox

"Hello, Riley. How are we today?"

We?

You mean me.

Not we.

Never we.

"I'm alright," I shrugged.

"You've missed a lot of school."

"Yeah. I had a post-nasal drip."

Connie blinked at me. She's got no idea what the fuck that is.

Me neither.

"Been catching up on your schoolwork, then?"

"Yup."

I ace my classes. Of course.

"Connie, I have a question."

She sighed. "Yes?"

"How come you stopped Peer Counseling?"

"I didn't think you needed it anymore," She answered. "You and Mr. Amherst seem to be getting along just fine without them, from what I see."

Wait.

Was this her plan?

To have us befriend each other?

Connie, you sly fox...

This wasn't Peer Counseling at all.

She just wanted us to get lives.

Huh.

Connie's smarter than I thought.

I went and chilled out at Betty's during World Civ.

I was supposed to have a report handed in Friday, and now it's Monday and I still don't have it.

Oopsies.

It's funny, after I realized he was married I really haven't given much thought to Mr. Geiger at all.

Like, seriously. Not at all.

I stared at him really hard today in class.

I'm not sure why.

I guess to wonder what I saw in him.

He still is really gorgeous.

I got a note fromt he office.

Apparently the VP's replacing my after school sessions with Connie to a simple Saturday detention.

Fabulous.

I guess I forgot to mention people hate me even more now, for punching out Jason.

I get a lot more dirty looks and shit like that.

It sucks, but it was worth it.

"Hey, Riley, you're a freak."

And fucking proud of it.

I got to thinking about Dirk today.

What do I see in him?

There's something exciting about him.

Social relations confuse me.

Damn it.

I did the Time Warp in the hallway.

It's not moshing, but it's close.

I got some really wacked out looks from that.

But you know what?

Fuck. Them.

Because it's all fun. It's all worth it.

I'm not hurting anyone.

I'm just breaking the mold.

And they hate that.

They despise it.

They loath it.

But why?
