Profiling Highschool

The things I've whitnessed at this school has been tragic for me to deal with. Seeing my own friend drown in her own tears, brings me no peace. I've seen some of the worst things anyone could ever see. How four students took down half of the school. No one stopped to help or listen for a second. I should've done something about it. I should've helped her. This is not a story telling what others should've done. Its about what the students did. It was our first day of highschool. Julia & I were freshman. Man did it feel good to finally walk the halls with the big kids. Julia was my best friend and always will be. You know, the rebellious, emo chick, who no one wants to be near. She pretended to be a lesbian or a dyke as they called her, so no guys would touch her. Even tho that egged them on more. Lets continue to the next group. The sophomores. Julianne & Juliun Sanchez. Julianne is one of the four, but somehow her twin brother found himself caught in this crossfire, like everyone else. They were separated from birth, when their mother died. Julianne lives with their father while Juliun lives with thier auntie. No one knows why they were separated in the first place, when they both could live with their father or auntie. Either way, these two formed a crew called the "Silent Squad". They don't speak much, obviouslly, but everyone knows not to mess with them. Moving on, we have the Juniors. Kyle Morgan, a dorky, scrawny looking guy, that is always bullied on by basically everyone. Even the other dorks pick on him. He's a loner that typically has major brains and is always the teacher's pet. He has a huge crush on his biology teacher, Miss.Harnwick. Follows her around like a puppy. To our final top group that everyone can't wait to be, Seniors. Danny Sharway, star quaterback with a scholarship headed his way. Everyone knows him. Dreamy, popular, your basic stereotypical character. Always trying to impress everyone and eats up peer pressure. He supposedly gets all of the girls and picks up the freshmens as soon as they walk through the door. All your character's laid out for ya, now I'll take you back to our first day of school. We walked through those doors with confidence. Feeling as if it was our destiny to be there. "Can you believe we're in highschool now!" "I know Jules, its almost like this is a dream." "This is no dream Mel." By the way, my names Melody. Don't blame me, it was my mother, a pianist. "Good, lets check out our new lockers." We ran over to our lockers, observing them as if it was a new car when the "Silent Squad" came through. Their sweatshirts had thier names on it. Julianne had Ja and Juliun had Jun. Three others followed. "What's up with those guys?" "I don't know Jules, but I think we should avoid confrontation with them." "Right. Whoa look. That jock guys checking you out." My eyes met his as he passed through, obeserving the fresh meat. Danny and his boys walked through in a pack like wolves. Looking for the prey they'd later hunt down. "I don't know why he was looking at me, but we both know I'm not in to guys like that." "Of course not, with your long flowing hair, big puppy brown eyes, and shiney pink lip gloss." "Now you're actually starting to sound like a lesbian." (The bell rung) "We should get to class Mel. Wouldn't want to be late now." (We walked through looking at our schedule) "What do we have first (I asked puzzled)." "Looks like we're headed to biology." (The tardy bell rung) "Crap, lets go! I think this is it." We rushed through the door with Miss.Harnwick waiting for us. "Well, I thought I was missing someone. You girls must be freshman?" "Yes mam (I answered nervouslly, looking back at Julia)." "Take a seat please. I asked, because we have a mixture of all levels. Some didn't get this class and others failed. No names will be said." We took a seat near the back. I sat two desk away from Danny. His friend elbowed him in the arm to alert him that I was there. "Isn't that the one you were eye balling Dan?" "Yeah, I was." "You planning on getting at her?" "Soon, just gonna take my time with this one." Kyle busted in the door, with papers flying, his pants untucked and suspenders unhooked. "Sorry Miss.Harnwick, I missed the bus." (Nobody wears suspenders anymore Urkle!) The class laughed, but Miss.Harnwick frowned. "Everyone quiet! Now Mr.Morgan, I'm beginning to think, you're failing this class in order to see me." Kyle blushed. "No mam. I just have trouble with biology, thats all." (Sit down Geek!) "One more outburst from you Mr. and you're going to detention. Well Mr.Morgan, you can take a seat now." "Ok." Kyle sat right in front of her. That desk couldn't be any closer. In the back, the twins sat, crouched down. "Jun, lets ditch this peice. I'm tired of wasting my time when I could be learning more about the streets." "No Ja. We should try to learn as much education as we can. The streets will have to wait." "If you don't, I will." Ja got up from her seat and walked towards the door when Miss.Harnwick turned around. "Excuse me Miss.Sanchez, where do you think you're going?" "I know where I'm going, so you better think about what you say to me." Ja exited the classroom with her brother right behind her. "Anyone else want to leave." (I do) "Well thats too bad. Moving on." The whole time she taught, my mind went in many different directions. Thinking of the present, past, and the future. Sorda planning ahead. Meanwhile, Dan couldn't keep his eyes off me. His eyes wondering, up and down my body. Curious to see what was underneath my clothing. Julia spotted him and turned towards him. She tapped someone on the shoulder in order to get his attention. Whispering "Could you stop undressing my girlfriend pervert or should I say pedifile." A couple of people giggled under thier breath, seeing that a lesbian downsized him. "Could you mind your own business, dyke." She grunted and turned back forward. "Dude, what's that lezbos problem?" Danny stayed staring at me. "I don't know, but in order to get anywhere near Melody, I'd have to get through Julia first." Juliun finally caught up with his sister. "Whats your problem? Why do you gotta be so damn stubborn? You never listen and you don't follow any rules." "Well Juliun, I have no choice. I'm the only income that dad & I recieve and we live in a sh***y place. I'm tryna make it on these streets and if I have to do it alone, I will. (Julianne stopped and turned to Juliun) So. What's it gonna be? Set in a class that teaches you nothing about life or hustle these streets in reality?" Juliun knew the right thing to do, but how could her abandon his only sister. "Fine. Where we going?" "That's more like it. We'll head down to Mike's. Make a few runs." Back in the boys bathroom, Kyle went in to do his business. Little did he know, he wouldn't be able to finish or even start. He looked around to make sure no one was in the bathroom and shut the stall behind him. Before he could unzip his pants completely, the stall door swung open, instantly pushing him towards the toliet, bumping his head against the wall. Triggering a major nose bleed. His zipper got stuck, but luckly it caught his shorts. "Well guys, looks like we have some fresh meat." "Oh please no. Not the first day of school, Chad!" "Whats the matter wimp, don't wanna get your hair wet? Still tryna impress that hot a** teacher. Don't worry, we won't wet your hair. (Kyle sighed in relief) You'll just wet your pants." "What?!" "Get'em guys." They picked Kyle up, carrying him to the gym. "If you scream, we'll turn your insides out." (Kyle gulped, curious to know what was in store for him) They grabbed a pocket knife and cut a hole in the back of his underwear. "What are you guys doing? Please don't!" "Shut up twirp. Knot those tidie widies, Pete." Chad threw the other end across a pole on the ceiling. Chad pulled the once Pete tied the rope through the hole, instantly pulling him upward by his underwear. "Owww! Please, it hurts!" Even though his wedgie was agonizing, he was fearing for his life as he got higher. Chad toyed with him by pulling him high, letting him go and stopping him before he reached the bottom. "Cry little boy! Look at the little pinata swing! Somebody hand me a stick." (He's starting to piss his self)The urine hit the floor, splashing. (Ohh!) They backed up quickly. "You little piss ant. You almost messed up my kicks." Kyle's glasses fell and hit the floor. "Look what we have here guys. The wimps greatest weakness. His dorky glasses." (Kyle let out a undignifying scream) They lowered him back down quickly before someone came. "This isn't over geek." Chad punched him in the eye and one of the guys stepped on his glasses on the way out. Kyle sat there on the floor, crying. The bell was about to ring and before he could look up, he saw feet standing there. Eyes were looking at him. Laughter began to fill the room. Girls were laughing & pointing, while others stood in shock. He ran out the door with all pride gone along with self-esteem. "Look at that kid run. I swear, if he wasn't so geeky, I could see him running the olympics." We made our way to Algebra I. "Seriously Jules, don't joke about the kid. Looks like he's had it tough." "Come on. The kid wet his pants and he's in the 11th grade." "Just be quiet and don't let your mouth get you in trouble again." "I won't." "Tell the teacher that I'm going to the bathroom." "Okay." I went to the bathroom and heard the sound of crying. Looking around to see where it had been coming from. I looked under the stalls and saw someone sitting on the floor. "Excuse me, are you alright?" No one spoke. "I just want to help." The suspender on the floor, gave it away. "Kyle? Is that you?" "Leave me alone!" "Why are you in the girls bathroom." "If I go to the boys, they'll find me again. Now leave." In my mind, I wanted to leave, but my conscious wouldn't let me. "What they did to you was wrong and I'm sorry no one chooses to see it." "What's it to you?" "We may not know eachother, but I can't leave you here like this. No one deserves that kind of punishment." He cracked open the door, peeking out. "What makes you so different from everyone else?" "I'm here, trying to help you up." He opened the door with the blood dried up under his nose, tears rolling down his face and his nose running. "I can't go back out there." "You can't let them win. If you do, then they'll keep doing the samething to you. You have to stand up for yourself, because no one else will." In turn, I will regret these words of advice. "I've never told anyone this, but I have a crush on Mrs.Harnwick." "I've noticed." "You think she'll ever... Ya know. Like me." "I'm sure she does, but you have to understand, she's a adult woman whose married." "I can dream can't I." "Oh my God! He's in the girl's bathroom! Shelly come see this!" "Oh no! Ya see what I mean!" Kyle ran out before the rest of the girls came. "Why'd you do that?!" "Because, its a geek in the girls bathroom. Loosin up freshman." "My names Melody and you have no right to bully him like that." "Tha names Trish. Is that your boyfriend or something!" "No." "Then stay out of my way!" She pushed me against the wall and exited the bathroom.  Holding my composure was the next best thing I could do.  The only thing that kept me from losing my cool was the fact that I didn't want to start the sch
