A Loser's Revenge

I watch from the shadows of trees against the cars lining the street. Invisible to the three I keep under my anger filled glare. Dressed in black, I have the hood of my zip-up hoodie pulled over my head and drawn closed as I fade into the afternoon shadows to observe and plan my revenge. They probably wouldn't recognize me if they did see me standing here. I've changed a lot over the past nine years and I'm no longer the slightly chubby kid who wore overalls or t-shirts and jeans everyday of the week until I was thirteen and everything changed. Everything. When my best friends became my worst enemies.I watch as Seamus, Hayden, and Axel laugh and joke around in their front yard and toss a football back and forth between one another. We're only a five minute walk from the college we all attend, a college I just transferred to mid semester of our senior year. They don't know I'm here and that's the way I want to keep it for a little bit longer. I patiently watch, waiting for them to leave for the football game so I can begin my plan.I will get my revenge.
