Halfway down the hall you heard foot steps behind you and you turned around to see.......

…..Poland......

You thought to your self 'Oh! Thank God! At least its someone I know!'

It was true, Feliks was your only friend, really. He was the only one who talked to you, of course it was because you were both bullied. At least for him it was a little less bad than it was for you....but even Polska, that valley-girl friend of yours, wouldn't stick up for you when you were bullied in front of him. He was too afraid to be teased more himself. The two of you would often talk after school, and he would comfort you and just hang around with you. Over the years, you had began to love the silly boy, but dared not tell him for fear he would be gay, not feel the same way, or start laughing at you too.

Then you thought to yourself 'What if he's decided to tease me too, just like the rest of them.....I don't think I could handle that...'

That was also true. If he started to hate you too, Poland, your only friend, you would surely kill your self. No joke.

You looked at him, tears forming I your (e/c) eyes, and said "What is it Feliks?"

He looked at you sympathetically and said "I, like, wanted to make sure you were, like, okay, you know?"

Normally, even the sound of his voice would make you smile, but not today. Today you were too broken down to even fake a smile.

You just blandly said "Yeah, Polska, I'm fine."

He shook his head, his straight blonde hair swung back and forth.

Then he said "Like, don't lie to me girly," in his beautiful (yet some how manly) sing-song voice.

"You're right..." you said. "I've never been alright," you said starting to tear up.

Moments ago, you had lost it physically when you screamed at the class, but now you lost it mentally.

You ran to Poland, hugging tightly, sobbing as hard as was humanly possible.

He said softly in your ear "It's gonna be okay (y/n), tell me everything, just let it all out."

Boy did you ever.

You said, still sobbing, "Oh Poland! It's so awful! They stare at me, call me names, beat me up, tease me, laugh at me, and everything else you can imagine! It really is terrible! What did I do wrong? What did I ever do to them? I'm just a freak1 A loser! I'm ugly, and not funny or talented or smart! I'm just the school freak! I'm surprised you still put up with me! I'm not good enough for anyone to ever love! I'm going to die alone with out ever knowing the true love of another! I just wish I would die! Right here, right now! Why can't someone just relieve me of this horrible, torturous, miserable existence! Why does my life have to suck so badly? What did I ever do to deserve this? Oh Poland! Why is life so horrible? What did I do......" you continued to sob.

Poland just looked at you, shocked. He had no idea you had so much cooped up in you.

He rocked you gently and cooed Polish in your ear until your sobs had slowed.

He looked at your tear-streaked face, and his green eyes met your (e/c) ones.

He smiled sadly and said something that you thought you'd never hear come out of another human being's mouth.

He said sweetly "My little girl... don't say things like that about your self. I've know you for years and you're the best person I've met, I'll even say I'm closer to you than I am to Toris. I think you're the most beautiful girl I've ever laud eyes on. You're funny, and smart, and down-to-earth, and sweet, and understanding, and strong, and talented, and determined, and courageous. I don't know why those ass-holes are bad to you. They have no reason to treat a sweet, pretty girl, such as yourself, like that!"

He trailed off. He thought for a minute.

The he bushed, smiled and whispered "You know how you said you you would never know the love of another? Well you have all along, you just weren't aware of it."

You looked at him and sniffled. "What do you mean?" you asked.

He blushed deeper, smiled again and whispered "I love you silly."

You were shocked.

"Really?" you asked, actually trusting and believing in someone for the first time in your life.

He nodded.

You smiled at him and blushed as well.

You closed the space between you two with a passionate kiss.

The two of you held it for a while, and then broke apart at the same time.

You stayed wrapped in each others arms for an amount of time that you still don't fully remember, but it was perfect, that you knew for sure.
