FOUR

daniel unlocked the front door to his house. he wanted to vomit from the stench of alcohol and possibly rotten food? his dad was passed out on the couch yet again which made him roll his eyes. he slammed the door shut and opened up some windows because the smell in the house was horrible.

he moved to the kitchen and bit his lip. he forgot to clean up his mess from last night, the meat and milk was left out, the vegetables still in a pot, and that was just great.

he quickly cleaned up, dumping the now spoiled milk in the skin, throwing the carton out in the recycling. he dumped the meat and vegetables in the garbage bin, taking the bag out and tying a knot with the strings of the garbage bag.

after he threw out the trash, he stared at his now empty refrigerator. he sighed. another day of take out can hurt his bank. he's already set aside money for his college, the rest was for taxes, alcohol, car payments, more alcohol, food, more alcohol, and any other necessities he needs.

so he shut the fridge. he grabbed his phone, making sure he actually had enough money to get another days worth of fast food, and then went over to the application where he usually gets his food.

he decided to get wendy's and boba tea because why not. he got his usual burger and extra fries and he got his dad a salad because his liver is probably failing him right now, so rabbit food wouldn't hurt him. then he ordered a large boba tea, and then went upstairs to the comfort of his room.

he dropped his school bag on the ground next to his desk and sat down on his chair. he turned his computers on, and while it loaded up, he pulled his textbooks out and his many notebooks.

he started off with statistics. it was just a small mini quiz online and he could take it as many times as he pleases. thankfully, because he totally blew the first attempt. but he took his time the second time around, working out problems and actually using his calculator, he got a higher score.

he then started his close readings. which sucks because the words were all scrambled. he wasn't able to grasp any of the information being thrown at him, so his notebook remained blank, and his textbook was colorless.

he could try and find the audiobook for the textbook he's reading, but daniel hates audiobooks. they always put him to sleep and he can never sit still long enough to get through it. and he likes highlighting his papers.

maybe it wasn't a good idea to be in a law major.

so he quite literally threw his textbooks and notebooks off his desk, and logged into twitch to watch corbyn's stream while he waited for his food.

in the call was jack, jonah and percy. corbyn was just goofing around on a random survival world, trying to beat the game while the boys distracted him.

it didn't take long for chat to realize daniel was watching.

"corbyn your boy crush is watching?" percy said with no hesitation. daniel rolled his eyes at the boys teasing antics, but a fond smile appeared on his lips. percy and dante were such lovely people with absolutely no filter.

"boy crush?"

"daniel." percy added. jonah laughed loudly, leaning back in his chair, nearly falling out of it.
