Neverland

Untitled Part 1

Alex's P.O.V. (point of view)

            There is one place I have always wanted to go to. Never Land was the place you didn't have to grow up, your dreams could come true, and you didn't need to worry. It was a place of happiness, not loneliness. The thought of the lost boys always fascinated me. If I was wendy I Would never leave, instead i would take everyone i know there. Even I know at my age that this world was not a happy place. My own dear mom looks forward to death. I absolutely positively hate this planet! It's full of creatures that will harm anyone for their corrupt desire. Humans love is a dangerous thing, be it romantic or unconditional. Once you get attached, the other is bound to leave you like chopped liver.

               I have experienced this many times, all supposedly unconditional, of course. The heartbreak from that was enough to know that romance was not for me. Caring about anything too much will hurt. That's why I do my best not to care at all, but being the person I am, I find I have to busy myself. By busy myself I mean pack my brain full of information that may or may not prove useful in my future. I don't just do this for a relieve I also do this for fun. I find that knowledge is fascinating, and due to my short amount of life experience I have some wisdom. I say short because I'm only 14, just recently actually. Most people would not expect me to have sense at first glance, but aren't we told not to judge.

               Throughout my life, I have been many things. I have been a victim, a witness, a bully, a blue blood, a beggar, a villain, a hero, a student, a teacher, a traveler, an older sister, a school slacker, and a school conqueror. My name is Alexis Sky Barnaby, but I go by Alex. Because of my short hair, I am always confused for a male. I don't mind it really, and i actually feel empowered by it. Don't get me wrong if I try I can look like a beautiful young lady, but sometimes I just don't care. You know how I told you I'm a school champ well as of right now I'm late.

3rd P.O.V.

          After Alex came out of deep thought, she glanced at the clock. With a shocked expression, she ran out the door, hoping she could make it to the bus, for the family vehicle had been totaled. Alex ran quicker than the speed of light with her book bags in hand, and might I add she has quite a lot of books. After running down the street, she made a left heading for the well known short cut. After passing through the narrow alleyway, she dashed right and luckily made her way to the bus.

Alex's P.O.V.

            Slowly creeping up the bus aisle, I shyly found a seat. Sadly I'm a completely different person when I go to school because I have social anxiety. The ride to school is long and boring, so I busy myself with reading, and the time passes that way quickly. When the bus finally slows to a stop, I know we have reached our destination.

        Although I love to learn and expand my knowledge, I can not stand how the school system is organized. Plus truth be told I don't have any friends, I only have a few acquaintances, and they are teachers. This is only because no female or male adolescent I have ever met has been able to hold an educated conversation with me, not to mention my commitment issues.

            When I stand up, I begin to gather my bags and shuffle into the aisle to leave. Although nearly impossible, I manage to get off the bus without falling on my face from the pushing and shoving. Nevertheless, I dart to 1st period, and In this class, we were learning about pandemics.

3rd P.O.V

           Alex became glued to her textbook, and the classes passed by quickly as they always do for her. Soon it was lunch, and Alex sat by what people would think were her friends.

          I analyzed the people around me. To me, the world was one big experiment filled with actions and reactions, and my life was nothing more than a mere observation.
