Narrator's POV
DeAndre ran out of Mr. Monty's class with a red face and with his heart beating rapidly.
Who had caused this you may ask it was his friend, a boy by the name Julius...DeAndre was a questionable teenage boy. His life at home wasn't great, his mother was a striper and his Father had left him at a very young age.
He had a sister but they didn't get along, due to the fact that she was a lesbian and he was, well... he was homophobic due to some childhood trauma that was still fresh in his mind.
DeAndre was starting at a new school, he honestly didn't want to move mid year but he didn't really have much of a choice do to some issues. Back at his old school he had gotten expelled and was no longer welcomed at Zia middle school. You see DeAndre was a bit of a trouble maker and that incident led him to his new school Vista middle school.
At first he was a loner with no friends to sit with at lunch but as he got more comfortable with the people around him DeAndre had made some new friends, Noel and Danny.
DeAndre liked hanging out with his new friends because the were both idiots just like him. Out of the three of them Danny was the only one that had a girlfriend her name was Isabel. As for Noel, he was single but was currently looking for a girlfriend. DeAndre was a little bit excited to test his luck, because he wanted to get a girlfriend by the end of his 8th grade year, the only problem was he never had much luck in the love department. It somehow always ended up bad but he was determined to change that this year.
When DeAndre got home he was greeted by another man his mother had slept with that day, the man was already leaving but DeAndre just smiled and waved him off. That right there was a normal day for DeAndre. Get home from school, smile wave at a different man each day. He had gotten used to greeting different men every day which made him not care anymore.
His mom was a kind woman but he just wished that she had a better life for herself. After the men leave she gets straight to drinking and sobbing. He's never really asked why but he did have a theory that when they leave it reminds her of when his father left. He did feel bad for her but he couldn't really do anything because then she would get mad and when she's mad she gets aggressive and she starts screaming to leave her alone.
DeAndre's POV
I learned that from experience, it wasn't great because I had many bruises that kept me from going to school for a few days because she didn't want anyone to find out about what she had done to me.
My sister is never here to witness any of it because she is always at school, work or at a friend's house. I may hate her but I do get jealous of her because she didn't have to deal with our mothers bullshit of sleeping with different men all the time.
The next day I woke up early like always,
I did my daily routine and went to school where I met up with Danny and Noel. Me and Noel talked about what girls were single and what girls were taken while Danny was talking to Isabel his girlfriend. Of course me and Noel were jealous because we wanted to have what Danny had with Isabel But of course I always seem to forget that I've never had luck in the love department. Every single girl I have ever been with always broke up with me. My dumbass keeps trying even though I know I'll fail at love all over again.In my history class I sat next to a boy named Julius, he was taller than me. He would wear semi-baggy clothes he had dreds with red tips he would always get in trouble for having is hood on but he didn't mind. He was the class clown but he was also really nice to people. Me and Julius later became friends and he started hanging out with me, Danny, and Noel. It was a little bit awkward when they first met but he later became more comfortable around us up to the point where we were all inseparable.
We all took turns on who's house we were going to for the week. I didn't want them to come to my house because for the first time I actually cared about what my friends thought of me. My house wasn't small and it wasn't dirty. I was just afraid that we would go to my house and they would start asking questions on "who was that man?" or "were is you dad?" Those are questions that I don't want to answer because for some reason I wanted it impress Julius I honestly don't know why bit I didn't think too much about it.
A few weeks went buy and I started to notice that every time I saw Julius my heart would start beating fast and I would stutter when I would have a conversation with him.
Then I realized that I had feelings for him which were not okay because it's disgusting two guys shouldn't be together it's weird and it's to right.I'm 100% straight.
I'm not gay.
I am seriously not gay.
Right??
