• "joe! wake up!" i hear my dad shout through the door, and i feel the sudden urge to punch him --do it joe!-- "shut up voice!" i say outloud. "what? asks my dad as i storm out the front door. i kick at a cat on my way to the bus stop, and it hisses at me. i arrive at the corner, and my freinds are leaning against the fence and the trees. "hows things with courtney?" asks my best freind zack. i shake my head. "she cut herself again. im so worried about her." i say. courtney is my girlfreind and the only person in the world i care about enough to love. --you should cut yourself to joe. it releases endorphines that make you happy!-- i roll my eyes at the ever present voice in my head. --dont roll those things at me! i will cut them out and feed them to that cat!-- i chuckle, and get some odd looks from my freinds. "voice," i whisper to it, "your not even a person, how can you cut my eyes out?" i ask. --i can do anything i want to joe.-- it replies. we board the bus, and i take my seat in the back. zack sits across from me. these are our seats, and our seats only, wich we established on the first day of school. i put my fedora hat over the camera over the back door, and talk to my freind tanner until we get to school. i make it through math before the voice says anything again. --hey joe, you should stab your science teacher today.-- i shake my head. then, my only real enemy, dylan sparks shows up at my locker. "hey ******** face. i heard courtney cut herself again. i guess its her moms fault for dying in a car crash." i stare at him blankly, and then punch him in the face. i grab the back of his hair, and use his head to slam my locker shut. i drop him onto his back on the hallway floor, and make sure to step on his hand and brake his finger on my way bye. --very good joe! your finally learning how not to control your anger!-- "shut up voice."
