“Yeah I’ve felt different.” Marty answered. “And it’s probably because I am different.”

“I can tell.” Megan said. “But you don’t seem like you do it for shock value. You seem naturally unique.”

“Thanks.” Marty said.

Megan talked to him constantly. No matter how much he pushed her away, she kept coming back. And yet, in the short time she’d been at his school, she’d made more friends then he had in his whole life. The popular kids all loved her.

“I didn’t mean anything by it. I think it’s cool. Attractive even.” She giggled.

“You’re not my type.” Marty said standing up as the bell rang.

“Maybe you’d notice me if I broke my arm.” She muttered.

“What?” Marty said stopping.

“I’m just saying, a girl would have to break something to get your attention.” Megan answered.

“You don’t want my attention.” Marty responded walking away.

“And you don’t know much about girls do you?” She said smiling back “The guys that don’t need you are always hottest.”
