9:40AM near the staircase,

"Didn't I tell you stay away from her?" He yelled at me and pinned me against the wall.

"I...I'm sorry." Tears welled up in my eyes.

"Let me remind you again, you are nothing but a parasite that only brings pain into other people's life. No one needs you and-"

"I know!" I interrupted his words. He slammed his other fist against the wall.

"If you do then don't involve yourself with my girlfriend again!"

"I won't. Please just let go of me." I begged. It's not that I'm weak or don't know how to fight back but if I do it here and someone finds out, they might take away my scholarship and I can't afford that. As soon as he let go of my hand I ran away. I ran away, like I always do. My mind was completely numb and I couldn't think straight anymore and then, suddenly, I bumped into "him" again. I didn't want him to see me in that state so I ran off...

My name is Luna, I'm a first year high schooler. Until now I used to live with my uncle but his girlfriend wanted to move in with him and I didn't wanted her to feel awkward because of me so I rented a small apartment near an old beachside town. It's not exactly in the best condition but it's not like I have a choice, beggars can't be choosy.

"Um...hey Luna, can you please explain me this equation?" A girl from my class asked.

"Sure,"

"Wow...you're so smart Luna, and kind too." The girl said with bright and genuine smile on her face.

"I'm not that smart." I gave her a smile in return but it can never be as bright and pure as hers. I'm just a disgusting, impure and a useless phoney. A lowly parasite.

"Bye, later!" A group of girls waved at me as they leave the class. I didn't waved back and just gave them a soft smile. Later as I checked my bag before leaving I found out that my keys were gone. I looked everywhere at the school but I couldn't find them. I don't think my day can get any worse at this point. I left the school and went back towards my apartment but then I found myself at the beach near my place. They say that it's cursed and I'm very glad that it is, after all it is the reason why my apartment rent is so cheap or else I would have had to live on the streets.

Suddenly it started to pour down even though the sky did not even had a single cloud like 10 minutes ago. As the water from the rain touched my waist it started to burn, I then realised that my waist was bruised because of how tightly he held my hand.
"Shit." I'm drenched, now I'll have to do the laundry again, how am I going to pay the bills? I already have so much to do already, I'm so exhausted please, I don't want to do anything please, just let me rest...I wonder if I'll get to rest if I just sink into the ocean-

"Hey!" Someone shouted, I know this voice, its-

"Senior?" I whispered in a low voice.He invited me to sit with him on a log so I did, we talked about some stuff and I was surprised to know that he still remembers the first time we met, it made me feel embarrassed and...somewhat warm? He always does this...every time I feel sad he magically appears and makes me feel okay again, how can someone be so kind? Is he a wizard in disguise?

"You're such a cool person, senior." When I said this to him, his face looked so empty. His eyes seem to always look for something, like he's always waiting for something or someone. I wonder if I'm allowed to know what it is, what he is.

"Later," I hope I can see him again.

Meeting him, at first, was nothing but another bothersome event in my life. He made me do things I do things I never dared to, feel things I never wished to. But the more I see him the more I'm drawn to him. Like he's the full moon in a pitch black night. you just can't not see him. But what draws me more than anything are those green eyes, so devoid of everything.
I want to see them, drown in them.
