I get it. My name's sorta weird.

Does that mean I'm dark and evil?

Heck yeah, it does.

But unfortunately, the name catches other people's eyes too.

Like a certain person named Leo Valdez.

Leo's the guy who turns everything into a joke-including your cat's death.

And sometimes--it's extremely annoying.

Cross that out-it's always annoying.

And when Leo looked at me, the girl in the black leather vest who kept quiet at the back of the class, he made it his mission to get me to crack a smile.

Which, unfortunately for him, I had practiced not doing for the sake of my reputation.

------

I smiled. I literally smiled.

I can't believe it.

I let Valdez, out of all people, win!

And the weirdest part of it is-

It was a normal day.

Sun shining and blah blah blah.

And we had just taken our seats.

See, normal.

Until a monster with razor-sharp teeth and horns on top of its head leaped into our classroom.

I honestly thought it was cute until Leo jumped up and killed it.

So much for having a deathly pet.

As I watched Leo stand over a pile of golden dust-

I smiled.

I frickin' smiled.

While also thinking-Gurl, what's wrong with you?

And Leo saw it.

He shouted, "LOOK, GUYS! MIDNIGHT HERE SMILED!'

Then he ran out of the classroom and never came back.

Weird ending but that's how it always ends with

name

Midnight.
