Howl at me by Cama Seeney (best non fiction books to read txt) 📕

adultrist they would use a stake and burn them. Now when they caught gay people they would throw them onto the faggots and let them burn alive.'His voice went deeper with sadness and moisture came into his eyes 'The wouldn't even have a stake to call their own. No time or date, they were just thrown on the fire like pigs were.' He stopped and he looked like he actually wanted to cry. I stood up and rapped my small arms around his naturally bigger and longer body. It was a little awkward over the table but he cheered up all the same.

 

'And can I say Dannng girrrl, you just practically showed half of the schools fine ass students your fine ass' He was laughing so hard at my blushing he nearly fell off of his seat. 'You're a real meanie!' I told him covering my face. He was still laughing as this more than slightly Goth girl came over, she was a little on the puppy fat side but what girl of our age shouldn't be ! I smiled sweetly and she shot me a death glare 'What's princess tutu doing here, got no one better yet' She sneered. Her face was deathly white and her make-up was all jet black. She wore a tight, dark purple corset looking tee-shirt and really skinny black jeans. Her shoes were massive and chunky and I had apslutaly no idea how she even thought about walking let alone striding in them. 'ugh my other friends were all left behind in the loonies bin ' I said making my eyes go all-wide and crazy, I pulled some half crazed face face to match.

 

Surprisingly she grinned, a jaw splitting grin and looked at Leon 'Yay we got to her before the Cray's did' She jumped up and down with surprising vigour. 'Some say their crazy, I show all seven and nine signs of crazy.. not that I know what they are but Mwhahaha!' I said dramatically. Her eyes lit up with such light it was surprising with eyes so dark. They seemed to reflect light not absorb it . 'Can I keep her please!!!' she asked with such sweetness I grinned back. 'Sorry she's going back to the bin tomorrow, from what I hear lilly I'd stay far away' said Leon with a little grin of his own. 

 

'Try and make me!' She said sticking her little pink tong at him. 'Lilly put your tong away before you drool all over Leon again' Said a deep charming voice. 'Hey that was once and I was like four !!' She complained loudly to the guy standing next to her, her oblivious adoration to her was so evident to all but him. He was short, blond and a simple cross lay across his neck. His plain grey top looked soft and well worn, matching his grey eyes perfectally. He was the only guy I had seen that had worn basket ball type shorts all day. They were light blue with black criss-crossing across them, he had simple trainers on that were a dark blue. His miss-matched colour and style was obvious but no one here actually seemed to care, I was starting to like this school a little more every minuet.

 

'Ugh do they sell coffee here? Not even this rabbit food will be enough sustenance to keep me alive for much longer!' I complained laying my head on my hands. 'So eat a burger!' said the new guy smiling, his teeth were bright white and completely straight. 'Vegetarian and gluten kills my insides a little' I told him poking to my belly. 'Oh, hmm..' He said thoughtfully. 'Right come on we can't let her die lets go. I'm Tig by the way' He told me enthusiastically. 'What we can leave campus ?!' I said excitedly 'Nope, but my mum works in the kitchen. I'm sure she'll find you something.' He told me grinning. 'Uh I.I. can't. T-that would p-put pressure on you mum. I'm fine' I said with big pleading eyes, refusing to budge, I got up quickly and left the cafeteria. Their eyes followed my every move but I couldn't help it I just didn't want the extra attention or pressure. 

 

Right now all I wanted was energy and food, since I was going to get neither I might as well just go into the library and ignore everything. I walked into the surrounded smell of musk and slight damp. Every wall was full floor to ceiling with all kinds of books. This wasn't like any other library, the only books shelves were the ones attached to the walls - The walls were massive and very high, the room actually looked like it was once a church. or some kind of religious place. In the front of the room sat Leather seats facing one another with tables and chess boards in between them. Bean bags were strewn in corners of the room and people leisurely sat on them reading. Across the back lay six individual tables, a computer on each and then five steps forward was another six computers desks, It was set up in such a way that the whole room was reachable and noticeable you could walk between each desk and see each person (well kinda) who was sat at one.

 

I sat on one of the blue swivel chairs, right in the back, hiding behind some sweet nerds .I allowed my mind the freedom I wouldn't normally succumb to but as of today I felt like I needed to wake up and smell the freaking roses. Every single person on the god forbidden planet has a story, a simplistic path that goes from a to b. Now the not so simple part was the 'how to get where you wanted' or 'how you can do it' Now that took you down every extended lane, over every cobble, bump and curb... You couldn't just shove some child into a cupboard for like ten years and expect them to live and / or survive the climate change! Some people had it easy, money, cars and the best education but who was to say they didn't suffer greatly too.

 

What if the lawyers son wanted to be a singer or a freaking clown... Ugh thinking hurt my brain. I thought of all the small miseries that brought me to this very place. Every piece of emotional turmoil that brought me to this very spot. I wondered if my 'birth parents' were both actually my parents... I dozed thinking of all the bizarre people who could be my actual parents, don't get me wrong I loved my adopted parents dearly but I did wonder how I came in to this world; would I learn from nature or nurture. 

 

 

 

 

I'm not tired I just sleep...

 

 Chapter 11 

 

I woke up with a cricked neck and stiff back; add fifty to my 17 years and 11 months and that was how I felt. It was my first day and I'd officially fallen asleep twice. I chuckled to my self and packed my things away, It had been the bell that had woken me from my peaceful yet slightly uncomfortable slumber. History - shoot me in the face and lay me down to rest ! I loved learning about wars and past mistakes but sports, leisure and tourism really suck ass... I wanted to be able to engage in history not catch up on lost sleep. I sighed and hurried to find the class room S3 ( so that's second floor right ??!) ahh why was everything so new and confusing, couldn't I just skip the first week - just know people and places no more uncertainty.

 

I walked into the class and the first thing I saw was some kind of hippy circle; tables pushed to the outside of the room and the chairs adoring the middle. The class teacher was about mid twenties and had obvious 'I'm the boss now shut up issues'. He was calling out a lanky guy with acne and geeky glasses as I walked into the room. 'Has no one told you about my strickt - not acceptions; You're late, you're out rule!' He asked annoyed ( his name was Mr Fitzpatrick ) 'Nope' I said smiling a cocky smile that I reserved for jackasses; even if they happened to be a teacher. He had a plain white shirt and a grey blazer with matching trousers. He wore a silver tie that seemed to tie in nicely ( haha tie in nicely ) , I'd say he looked nice if he wasn't so rude. 'Right, if your not clear on the rules, and I state this to every student in this class. Do some homework and I wont lock you out of the class with a zero on your online mark.' His voice seemed to boom with fake vigour and false authority. I rolled my eyes and sat in the only available seat; funnily enough it was directly next to Lilly, I grinned and she returned the smile mouthing 'you okay?' and I nodded plastering a semi fake smile on my face. 'Well read pages three through to seven and then we will discuss.' He handed me a little red book that read 'Sports, leisure and tourism'. 

 

We did as he said, I would explain in such detail that you'd die a little inside like I had but I am not cruel nor do I posses the brain power. When I yawned a jaw breaking jaw the teacher looked at me annoyed 'I'm not tired I just sleep' I muttered much to my class mates amusement. The rest of the lesson was practically Q and A, it was rather boring to be honest. I promised my ant that I would buy new shoes, the trainers on my feet were practically held together by the mud. I walked the same way we had driven to go to town passing the school. I had said bye to Lilly promising to meet up with her tomorrow. 

 

 In actuality it surprisingly only took me ten minuets to walk to town from the school, If I was quick I could buy a coffee, shoes and be out before the migraines set irritated out of my mind  but first I needed to find a cash machine. When I finally found one I sighed in relief stood in front of the newly found cash machine frustrated out of my mind it took freaking ages to find the machine and I hadn't even started to look for a shoe shop let alone a coffee shop!

 

I put my card into the as my mother used to say 'hole in the wall' but for some reason this machine was acting weirdly! It asked me for my pin twice, I gave up on the third time and I received an error flash and then 'card denied' Crappy day, crappy machine and crappy town!!' I complained looking for an santander bank so I could talk about this messed up machine I turned to leave and seemed to walk into a lamp post or something! 'Oww!' I complained rubbing my already sore head.

 

Air rushed out of my lungs and I wasn't intently sure it if I was because of the bump I'd taken or the oh so familiar face of the man standing before me. I recognised the after shave that seemed to follow me around like
