The Background Kind Of Guy

Chapter Seven

I stood locked in my room, wallowing away.

There's nothing to do with my life...As always.

I just sit and waste my whole life away, which isn't what I want to do, yet I'm doing it anyway.

But I was to busy recaping all of the unexpected events that had happened so far in my life.

The girl of my dreams friend zoned me, I'm a disappointment to the whole town and I have a broken arm and glasses that are very annoying to bear with.

But, at least Pubbie is here to comfort me. Gotta stay optimistic you know?

Cause if you keep bringing yourself down. It won't get you anywhere.

"Meow."

"What you bored?" I asked Pubbie

"Meow."

"Well what do you wanna do?"

Pubbie jumped down the bed running out, he then came back in with a toy mouse in his mouth.

He dropped it right infront of me.

"You wanna play...with this?"

Pubbie gave a slight nod.

"And I thought you were more human than cat." I joked as I grabbed the toy.

I dragged the mouse tail against the bedsheets.

Pubbie's eyes widened, getting into a hunting position. He then leaped for the tail of the toy mouse.

"Aww, your cute when you hunt." I smiled

Pubbie gave me an offensive look.

"What it's true."

I stood silent for a moment.

"Sorry Pubs, but I think I'm gonna go out for a walk alright?" I asked.

"Meow." He said in an understanding tone.

"Thanks."

I rolled out of bed, going to my feet, I walked out of the house, silently walking around town.

While Everyone from my school were having the time of their lives.

Drinking, drag racing, going to parties, making out...whatever they do. I don't know.

I've never been around a group of teenagers that were considered as "My Friends"

But that's one thing I'm glad for because group of friends end up breaking the law when drunk...and I don't think I can handle being drunk, nor jail.

(Gosh I shutter just when thinking about it)

I mean, I gusse that's the only perk of being in the background
You don't get into much trouble, you have less worries and you get to focus on yourself instead of trying to maintain a friendship.

But at the same time, you feel lonely in the world, I mean yeah,Pubbie is my best friend but, spending time with a cat is considered to be sad.

As I walked into a deep Trans, I heard footsteps coming from behind. I glanced to see it was Audrey.

"Aw jeez, I was gonna scare you." She smiled

"H-hi Audrey, What's up?" I asked

"Not much...just walking around, not much to do."

"Don't you have friends to hang out with?"

"Their...not my friends, they just stick with me and consider me as their "friends" just so I can do their homework..I kinda feel used you know?"
