~Chapter 2~

All I heard to wake up that morning was my parents arguing. "fuck my life" I muttered I then got out of bed and dressed with loose black pants, and a black hoodie. I then made my way upstairs, my mother offered me something to eat, I declined. I usually don't ever eat after listing to my parents argue, I then walked out the front door, and entered my car, I then slammed my head down on the steering wheel. "Wait, I can try to talk to that fox today!" I exclaimed with excitement. After numerous attempts to start my car it wouldn't start, I checked and saw my battery was unhooked. "Oh, I forgot I unhooked that!" I laughed at myself, I then drove to school, I arrived early. That's when I saw him, The fox was waiting on the steps. They where here early too. After trying to gather the courage to talk to them, I walked up to them. they had beautiful grey and black fur, with blue highlights on his head fur. " hello" mumbled "Oh hello" he said cheerfully. At that moment I knew, I was gay.

I asked him if he was gonna join music class, "Yes, I am gonna be the drummer!" he said cheerfully. "Are you gonna be in it?" He asked. "Yeah, I am gonna play the guitar" I answered. "cool, what is your name?" he asked. "Shadow" I responded. "My name is  Midnight." he said. I gave him my number and said we should hang out sometime. "We could chill out tonight." he said. "That works for me!" I said cheerfully. The bell rang and I headed to class. During class I took my diary and wrote that how I felt about the fox. Although I was very vigilant about who was looking, someone saw what I wrote, After class before I headed to my next class, I went to my locker to grab my phone, I saw that someone wrote faggot on a piece of paper and taped it to my locker door. "How did they know?" I mumbled under my breath. I continued towards the music classroom, Midnight was there also, I asked if he wanted to sit next to me. He decided to sit next to me, and the teacher started to go around and ask what instrument we are going to use in his class. As it  came my turn I said guitar, the teacher said they don't have those in the school.

As the teacher said that, I said "I have a fender custom Stratocaster at home." he said oh ok, that's fine then. Midnight wanted to do the drums. The teacher went on to start to order everyone's instruments, we where allowed to talk and hang out. I was more excited for lunch, considering I didn't eat breakfast. After class we went to lunch, I got some pizza, and so did Midnight, but people soon learned quickly that I was gay. I finished lunch quickly, and went to my locker. I needed to get my laptop for class, after I got to my locker three large strong students started to beat me, I did the best I could to defend myself, but after they broke 3 of my ribs, and  dislocated my shoulder I couldn't stand anymore, I still tried to protect myself while on the floor.

That is when Midnight, came around the corner, I started to fight them, I had a strong feeling he was gonna get hurt, but he took many good hits. Midnight beat the shit out of those students, He asked me if I was ok, I could barley breathe, so I couldn't say much. But somehow, through my struggles to breath I managed to say no. He immediately Started to help me get up, At the moment he gave me his hand, I blushed a bit. Luckily he didn't notice, He realized I couldn't stand so he picked me up and carried me to the nurses office, the nurse listed my injury's. Midnight offered to take me to a hospital, the nurse game him the ok, Midnight said that he needed my keys, "they are in my pocket" I said whimpering in pain, he gently placed me in the passenger seat of my car, and stepped on the gas and drove me to the ER as fast as he could.
