Battling depression, together

Chapter 6

I can not believe her, that bitch. Caroline I hate you.

I had just received a text from an unknown number and being the dumbass I am, I immediately looked at it.

It was from Charlie.

It was a little before 7pm and I started to freak out.

He wants to know me, but he doesn't like me, he couldn't possibly do that. But then why is he going through all this trouble? I'm far from the only depressed kid at our school so it just doesn't make sense!

I freaked out for a while before taking a bath to try and relax. I put on the jets and dimmed the lights and soon enough, I was relaxed.

From the description of my bathtub you can probably guess that I'm rich, and you're right.

I live in a mansion to but it blunt. It's a 7 bedroom house with 9 bathrooms. An indoor and outdoor pool, a hot tub and a spa/wellness area. There's a movie theater which also has a bar (and alcohol out in the open). The kitchen was absolutely huge and we had probably 4 dinning rooms. There's a music room and indoor gym and my fathers office. We have a small library in one of the many living rooms and I have my own car.

I was definitely part of the 1% and honestly probably part of the 0.005%.
Even my neighbors didn't have as much money as my parents did, and I had already inherited a somme.

I got out of my bath around 8pm and got into a new pair of clothes.

I thought about ordering dinner but while I was on the pizza hut website, Caroline messaged me saying Charlie was coming to my house with food.

"That absolute bitch" I said to myself, at least he had food.

I called the security down by the gate and said I was expecting a guest and only 10minutes later they called back and asked if I was waiting for a Charlie Quillin.

I let him in and quickly ran to my walk in closet.

I quickly got into a shirt and put a sweater over it, pulling the collar of my shitty over it. Then got black jeans on.

I ran to the door just as I heard the bell ring. I waited for a second before opening the door.

I opened the door the find an almost out of breath Charlie holding a skateboard and a bag of food and his school bag still on his back.

"Hi" he said to me smiling.

"Hey" I smiled back.

We looked at each other for a while. I hadn't really understood what it was that we had. I mean I liked him but he was clearly straight. But we looked at each other and just the small amount of attention he gives me, makes me feel relaxed.

"I brought food if you haven't eaten yet" he said holding up the bag.

"Oh uh yeah, I haven't yet. Here come in" I said opening the door a little more.

"It's really nice here" Charlie said as he took his shoes off and put down his board and bags.

"Yeah my dad owns a really expensive clothing line so, mansion. But don't be fooled it's not that nice. The fact it's so big makes it lonely, especially when you live alone" I said already seeping back into my depressed state I've been in for weeks.

"Why do you live alone?" He asked as I walked him to the kitchen.

"Well my dad is always in either New York or in Asia and my mom passed away when I was born and my step mom travels with him. Currently my aunt's staying here but she's leaving in a Wednesday. She just came to make sure I wouldn't kill mys-" I cut myself off. I can't believe I was actually going to finish that sentence. I met him 5 minutes ago! God I have oversharing issues!
