• Someone's creation
    He was so proud it was beautiful
    Like every angel in heaven came
    And set it in his mind-
    His hands.
    His innocent face glowed humbly when he showed it to you
    Yours did too-

    You broke it by accident.

    A present on your desk
    Wrapped up beautifully
    In silver and a lacy thread
    Your heart turns with excitement.
    You pull the string, smiling hugely.
    It curls in the air as it flies off.
    You rip off the paper-

    This couldn't have been for you.

    THEY ignore you.
    THEY must have been talking about you.
    THEY must hate you.
    They think THEY're your friends- HA!
    You tell your new friends the "truth" about THEM.
    "Truth" becomes wicked lies.
    You all cackle about THEM...

    Until you unwittingly arrive at your surprise party thrown by THEM.

    You pass a note in class to your boyfriend.
    "I love you."
    "I love you too. You look beautiful."
    You wonder why he didn't write something lewd.
    "Thanks, sweetie. Meet me outside the lunchroom after school?"
    The note travels across the class, to the back of the room where he sits.
    "OK."

    When school's over, the only one there is the the creepy shy boy who shares your boyfriend's name, smiling a big-toothed smile and holding a flower for you.
