Chapter 4 My Mom and My friend
Logan POV
_________________________
I woke up on my mothers sofa. I didn't do my homework last night and I was starving. I was too sad to even move. It's because Cheddar passed away.
I got up, I noticed a big bottle of wine on the kitchen counter. I walked over to it and looked around the top of it. I grabbed a tag on it, it said "Love you from Derek."
Who the hell is this "Derek" and what does he want with my mom!
"Logan," I heard a voice coming from behind me.
"What do you want where's my food! I needed it last night!" I shouted while jerking my body around to face my mother.
"I'm sorry dammit!" She yelled coldly.
"Okay well maybe if you sobered up you'd mean it!" I shouted back. I realized and processed what we said. I grabbed my blue beanie. I ran to the living room and grabbed my book bag.
"See you after school, unless you're too drunk to remember me." I quietly said looking at her one more time.
I kept walking out the door and I ran down the flights of stairs to get to the main building door. I saw Chris and Luke standing there.
"What are you guys doing here?" I asked them like they were crazy, " You know school is almost over and I over slept."
"We know dawg, we came over to ditch and come get you," Luke smiled.
"Alright, what class is left that I'll have time for?" I asked.
"Um... oh computer technology!" Chris answered.
I started to lose thought, that's that class with that girl. Rachel, yeah, that's her. She remembered my name. I remembered hers. True love there.
The three of us got on the regular non school bus. I sat down in the front and we all three sat together. I like in the window reflection and saw myself then I saw all black people behind me. One of them looked young and looked sad. Another one looked hungry. I kept looking at them until I couldn't help it anymore. I got up to clam one of the kids down until someone yelled at me.
"Get yo white trash ass down!" One yelled. The rest of the black people were laughing and praising him so I did as he said. I sat back down.
"Just ignore them Rain Man," Chris patted my back.
We made it close to the school I saw all the trees and the building. It looked dead. The bud kings (school mascot building that sucks) behind it made it look like a ghost town.
I got off the bus with Chris and Luke. "Alright see you guys tomorrow right?"
"Of course later man!" Luke replied.
I shook both of their hands and ran to class. I snuck in a window of the building and snook down the hall I knocked on the classroom door. I was only 5 minutes late.
"Ah Mr. Harrt, care to join us?" Asked Mr. White.
"Yes I would, thank you," I politely smiled and walked to my seat.
I sat down and smiled to Rachel.
"Hey," I whispered while Mr. White was talking in the background.
"Hi," she smiled back.
"So um how's your day been?" I asked casually.
"It's been good," she replied.
"That's good, I over slept," I said trying to act cool.
"Ah that's happened to me before I procrastinate a lot and I'm like super lazy," she laughed.
I smiled and fake laughed be used I wasn't in the mood to really laugh. I kept looking at her. She is pretty friendly. I hope we get to be close friends.
"So um do you want my phone number?" She asked.
"Oh yeah sure then I can contact you whenever," I fake smiled and panicked.
"You mean text right?" She smirks and laughs.
"Of course yeah, text," I casually smiled back.
"Okay text me when you can. Oh, do you have an Iphone?" She asked
"Oh that....yeah...um...yes...I..I...I do have one," I nervously answered.
"Okay."
The bell than rang.
"Bye," she smiled.
"Oh...um..yeah..bye," I smiled scared for life.
I watched her walk away with her boyfriend Cole. Ugh, that guy gets on my nerves. I hate him.
So my problem is.... I'm poor.
Because I'm poor I don't own a phone and don't know how to use one.

The day went by fast I got home and dropped my stuff down. My mom wasn't home so I walked to Chris's trailer house.
I got inside and sat down on a dirty old chair. It was better than nothing.
"Dude I need serious help," I looked at him.
"Yeah you do," he laughed.
"No but really," I looked serious.
"Well what is it I promise I'll help ya out as much as I can."
"Okay well.....How do you use a phone and do you have any?" I asked.
"You are one lucky bitch," he smirked.
"Why's that?" I asked.
"Because I happen to have an extra one from Luke."
"Thank god,"
"Yeah, now let me tech you how to use it.... Oh and let me guess that girl you were with is who you're gonna be texting?" He smiled suspiciously.
"How do you know?" I asked amazed.
"It's obvious."
