Chapter 1
Scott's POV
RIIIIIIINNNGGGGGG
"Fuck!" I groaned as I pulled my blankets over my body. I didn't want to wake up yet, but I also didn't want to be late for school. After fifteen minutes of laying on my bed staring at the ceiling, I finally decided to get ready seeing it's already 7 am and school starts at 8. I sluggishly got off my bed and headed towards my walk in closet to pick out an outfit. After going through all my clothes for like 10 minutes, I finally chose a pair black jeans, a t-shirt from Urban Outfitters, along with my all time favorite Marc Jacobs Jacket. I might be a guy, but fashion is my passion. I care about the way I look and I always dress to impress. Not wanting to be late, I went to my enormous bathroom. I washed my hair and body, brushed my teeth, styled my hair and did other necessities. After I'm done, I went downstairs where John, my butler, greeted me.
"Good morning Mr. Hoying. How was your sleep?" He asked me.
"It was not that good seeing that I need to get up this early for school. But thanks for asking." I replied. John has been my family's butler since my dad was still in high school and he's kinda a part of the family now.
"What would you like for breakfast Sir?" He asked again. But since I'm already running late, I told him that I won't be having any breakfast today. I then rushed to my black Lamborghini Aventador and sped off to school.
When I arrived at school, I parked my car and as I walked to my locker, many people said hi to me and asked about my holiday. I'm kinda uncomfortable with people asking me questions this early but I think that's the risk of being the most popular guy in school. When I arrived at my locker, my best friends Avi and Kevin greeted me.
"Hey man, how was your holiday?" Avi asked me with his deep voice. I had no idea how a man can have a voice that deep but everyone's unique right?
"It was the usual. Mom and dad went off shore to deal with some business problems and I was left at home alone doing nothing but working out in my indoor fitness center." My mom and dad were never home. They were either spending their time in the office or going to other countries to expand their business. I know that they're doing this to earn money so that they can buy me nice stuff, but I sometimes feel lonely when I'm home alone. I wanted to hang out with my friends but they're usually away with their family. Thank God I have John that accompanied me whenever mom and dad were away. I don't know what I'll do if I don't have him in the house. Anyway, back to the conversation with Avi and Kevin.
"I definitely can see your muscles growing." Avi said.
"Yeah man, at least you're doing something useful during the holiday." Kevin replied.
We talked until the bell rang, signaling that we need to go to our homeroom. Avi, Kevin, and I were lucky because we have the same homeroom. As we were walking, I spotted this black haired dude walking into the principal's office.
Hmm.. I've never seen him before.. Is he a new kid? He looks weird.
I thought to myself. But I snapped out of it when we entered the classroom. First day of school was the usual thing. The teacher gave us our schedules and they read a few rules. It was very boring until there was a knock on the door. The teacher excused herself and went outside. Less then a minute later, she went back inside with the guy that I saw earlier. She then introduced the boy and said that he has just moved to this town and he's going to be in this homeroom. She also said something about being nice to him but I'm not sure if I heard it right because I was busy on my phone texting Kirstie.
Kirstie is my best friend. We have been friends for as long as we can remember. But no, she's not my girlfriend. I considered her as my own sister, that I cared for. Anyway, Kirstie is supposed to be sitting next to me here but she's still in Australia to attend her cousin's wedding so the seat on my right is empty.
I was busy texting Kirstie when suddenly a voice caught my attention.
"H-Hi.. My name is M-Mitch." The new guy said stammering.
"I-I'm new here, a-and.. a-and.." He seemed to be very nervous that he didn't know what to say.
"And what, twink? Cat got your tongue? Or are you too stupid to even say a sentence?" One of my football team mates, Luke, asked him in a degrading voice and the class was filled with laughter.
"Luke, watch your language if you don't want to have detention on the first day of school. And Mitch, you may sit on an empty chair." Our teacher spoke. Usually, I would join Luke when he's bullying the nerds or the new kids, but this time I didn't feel like doing it. I guess it's just because of the sleepiness.
"Oh come on Scott. Cut the whole acting. I know that later you'll be the one planning the whole scene to humiliate him." He said to me while putting a gum in his mouth. "Whatever." I said to him feeling slightly annoyed. I don't know what's happening to me but it felt weird.
Suddenly, I heard a small sob coming from my right. And there, I saw Mitch sitting with his head bowed and a streak of tears falling down his cheeks. I didn't know when he sat down there but it's Kirstie's spot and there's no way that I'm going to let some new kid take her spot.
"Excuse me. But that spot's taken." I said coldly.
"Oh.. s-sorry.." He said while wiping down his tears. He looked around to find another empty seat and when he spotted one next to Luke, he let out a small gasp. He took small steps towards that seat, and when he finally sat down, Luke started his act again. At this time, the teacher was called to the principal's office so Luke is free to do what he wants to do.
"What's wrong mama's boy? Have you been crying?" Luke said while going in front of him and lift Mitch's chin up using his fingers. "Aww.. there's nothing to be sad of. I'm not gonna do anything to you unless you're a fag. But unfortunately, you really are a fag. A worthless fag. And you even dared to sit on Kirstie's spot. Scott will have so much fun dealing with you" He continued and pushed Mitch's shoulder.
From my seat I could see Mitch blinking his eyes, trying hard to stop his tears from falling out. But he failed miserably when Luke grabbed his bag and spill all the contents out. At this point, I'm totally annoyed by Luke's behavior. I mean, I know that we used to bully other kids, but he's never been this bad. I mean, yeah we push the nerds but never have we ever called someone a fag. This is getting out of control and I realised that I need to stop this before someone got expelled on the first day.
"Luke, I think that's enough. Leave the new kid alone." I said annoyed.
"What? Why are you standing up for him? I mean, I'm teaching him a lesson here for sitting in Kirstie's spot." Luke replied to me and it took everything that I have not to explode right there in front of the whole class.
"Just stop it dude! He's new. He didn't know that it was Kirstie's seat. Stop it unless you want me to come to you and teach you a lesson as well." With that, Luke instantly shut up.
We still have 15 minutes before homeroom ends and I turn my head towards my phone again. It seemed that Kirstie was busy at that moment because she didn't reply to my text, so I decided to play Temple Run. I don't know why but I'm addicted to this game. This is probably the best game that human could ever invented.
As I was playing, I could see the new guy from the corner of my eyes and he seemed like he was still shaking and crying. I sighed, paused my game, and went to his seat.
"Hey.." I said while putting my hand on his desk. He flinched when my hand came in contact with his desk. Once again I sighed. "It's Mitch right?" I asked him and he asked me with a small nod. I want this to be over quickly so I continued. "I'm Scott and I'm so sorry for what Luke said to you. He's a jerk so don't listen to anything that he said. Anyway, I'm not gonna beat you up for seating at Kirstie's seat because I know you're new and you didn't know about anything yet. So.. yeah. Just relax and stop crying. Class will start soon." And with that, I returned to my seat.
