Simon locked his phone with a huge smile in his face. He left his room and headed straight to the kitchen.
He saw his brother, Nick, sit at the table with his favorite first meal of the day in front of him.

"Good morning Stimpy!", His mum said giving him a warm hug.
"Hi mum."

Simon sits down at the table, facing his brother.
"Good morning, Nick!", Simon says, smiling.
"Morning, Simon. What has u all smiling this morning? Something exciting happening today?"
I'm going to school with a new friend of mine that makes me question my shit is what's happening today, Simon mentally slaps himself.

"Nope! Just want to bring some happiness to the table."
"Already did that."
"Right. Look at u, ur two seconds away from sinking into that fist.", Simon eyed his brother, his fist up against his cheekbones, eyes barely opened.

"I thought u wanted to bring happiness to the table? Ur only bringing insults to the table now.."
"Oh shut up."

"Bye mum, bye Nick!", Simon chants at the door, almost opening it.
"Bye baby! Have fun!", His mum's voice was heard from out the kitchen, Nick didn't reply.

The blue-eyed boy stepped outside, waiting for his friend to show up. He stood outside for two to three minutes before he saw an all too familiar figure from a distance.

"SIMON I'M HERE!", He yelled, receiving a few shushes from the elder ones who lived nearby.
Simon smiles stupidly at his aggressive cycling, how does he look dumb and adorable the the same time? Simon mentally slaps himself to get away from his thoughts.

"Wagwan famalam?"
"Uh- Excuse you?", He laughs.
"Uh- never mind. Hello Simon!", JJ excitedly hugs Simon and both the boys get on their bikes.

"What do you have for the first period?", JJ questions
"History, what about you?"
"English, you know, the one class you suck at?", JJ jokes.
"Oi, shut up!", Simon pushes him playfully and softly so the boy cycling next to him doesn't fall off of his bike.
