***TIME SKIP - AFTER SCHOOL*** ***BRAXTON'S POV***
Bryson and I climbed on the bus. I wish I didn't have to take the bus. It's full of people. Ew. The only reason my dad drove me today was because he wanted to make me feel a bit more comfortable. Eh, I guess it's better than riding the bus. Even if it was a one time thing.

Finally, the bus pulled up in my neighborhood. Apparently Bryson lives near here too. We got off the bus and started walking down the street. We were just talking about random things. It started out as talking about music on the bus and somehow it came to talking about anime. We were currently talking about Death Note.

"Oh come on! Near is the best character." Bryson said.

"Nope. L is DEFINITELY the best character. Plus, he's hot.. Just saying." I replied.

"You got a point but Near is still better." He said.

"L is so better. You can't deny it." I answered.

"I can and I will." He refused to give up on his point.

"L is better." I said, taking off running towards my house.

"HEY, YOU'RE NO FAIR." He yelled.

"HAHA!! L IS STILL BETTER!!" I yelled back, walking up the path to my house.

"I DON'T LIKE YOU ANYMORE!!" He yelled.

"YEAH, YEAH, CYA." I yelled at him.

"BYE!!" He said walking into his house, which was catty cornered from mine. (A/N I have no idea if I spelled that right but oh well.)

I walked into my house, going up the stairs. I went into my room, locked the door, and plopped down on my bed. I got my phone and earbuds out and plugged them in. "Second And Sebring" by Of Mice And Men started playing. I exited Pandora and went to Wattpad. I started reading a Jalex fanfic. Yes I read gay fanfics, deal with it.

After about 3 hours I decided to get up off my lazy butt and do something. I got up, stretched, and went outside. Still listening to music, I walked down the street. I wandered around a bit before stumbling upon a forest. I walked through some trees lip sinking to "Backseat Serenade" by All Time Low.

After wandering around for a while I saw a small pond with a tiny little waterfall. I smiled. I loved nature. I sat down by it and looked into the water, just thinking.

I liked to think about life, death. Happiness, sadness. Love, hate. Hope, despair. A lot of other things, too. I sat thinking for about an hour and a half before I decided to get up and go home. It was almost 9 now.

I walked back home and went up to my room. I set my alarm and drifted off to sleep.

***TIME SKIP - NEXT MORNING*** ***BRYSON'S POV***
I woke up to my alarm blaring. I groaned and turned it off. I rolled off my bed, onto my floor, wrapped up in the blankets. I clumsily got up and somehow managed to get the blankets off of me. I went into the bathroom and did my morning routine, getting dressed in a Sleeping With Sirens shirt, black skinny jeans, and neon green Converse. Grabbing my backpack, I went outside. I started walking to the bus stop when I heard someone yell.

"Bryson! Wait up!" Braxton yelled, walking out of his house.

"Hey." I said as he caught up.

"Hey." He replied. He had on a Pierce The Veil shirt, dark blue skinny jeans, and some black Converse.

We walked to the bus stop and waited for the bus. While we waited we listened to music and read. Don't judge. Reading is amazing. Well, usually only on Wattpad. Soon, the bus pulls up and we climbed on. We both sat in the very back away from most people.

As the bus pulled up at school, everyone raced off. Braxton and I were the last people off. We went to his locker first. He got his books and we went to my locker, me doing the same. Soon, we were off to class.

The teacher came in and gave us instructions for the work. Honestly, I had no idea how to do it. I mostly just guessed, as usual. A lot of people were getting done, so I scribbled down some answers and got up and turned it in. The bell rang, dismissing class. I grabbed my stuff and caught up to Braxton, who was waiting at the door.

We walked to our next class, science. We had to build something that would prevent an egg from breaking. I got paired with Braxton (Thank God).

We build a small cone shaped thing with a cup inside with rubber bands around it to keep the egg inside. We put a 'parachute' on it. It was a ziplock bag with a pipe cleaner in it. (A/N we had to do this in my class. I'm in middle school though so idk if they do this is high school.)

We went outside to test them. The first team went. They dropped it. It went EVERYWHERE. The second group went. Broke. As we went along everyone's broke. Finally, we were up. Braxton went up, dropped it, and nothing happened. Ms. Goodwin picked it up, got the egg, and it was perfectly fine. Not a crack. Braxton and I smiled.

"A+" Ms. Goodwin said, smiling. We smiled back at her.

"We did it!" Braxton said as he approached me.

I chuckled. "Yep." I said. Soon, the bell rung, signaling the next class period.
