Chapter 2: Possibilities?

~Preston's POV~

I get off my seat to get off the bus and someone nudges me. I sigh and look at him, thinking it would be one of the 'popular hunky' rude guys but it's actually the guy I bumped into earlier today.
"Oh hey" I say, trying to sound cheerful.
"Hey dude! My names Rob just in case you're wondering!" Rob says.
"Okay, hello Rob, my name is Preston" I say with a grin.
We got off the bus and started walking home and talking. I found out that Rob actually lived in the same neighbourhood as me, so we could walk home from the bus stop if he wanted after school sometimes. It would be cool to have an actual friend for once.. I had some friends, yes, but Lachlan and Vikk moved back to their home countries. And Mitch and Jerome got sent to different schools. So I have nobody left here, but Rob could be a possible friend. I do have 1 friend but we don't talk a lot; Brandon. But otherwise nobody could give one shit about me in this school. They probably wouldn't even notice if I was gone for 2 weeks. Ever since my old fake friend - Adam - admitted how much he actually hated me, him and his friend have always despised me since. Take in mind the popular group AND Adam's group all want me to suffer with this bullshrimp, it's unfair. But whatever, society is unfair in general I guess! "Preston?" Rob snaps me out of my imagination as we walk home.
"Huh- Sorry I didn't hear what you said!" I say in a shock as Rob actually scared me there.
"I was just asking if you wanted to walk home more often, considering you're the only person in school who lives around here other than me and that you seem like a chill guy" he says.
My face turns red and I just smile as I realised that he noticed I blushed.
"Yeah, sure!" I reply back.
"Okay, good! Now my house is right across the road, so I'll see ya later or something!" Rob says as he waves and crosses the street.
"Okay, see you around!" I say back to him as he closes the door.
I start grinning like a psychopath or something because I walked past someone and they give me the weirdest look.
Calm down Preston, he just wants to walk home with you sometimes, it's not a big deal. Don't overthink that he wants to be best friends with you or something, because nobody really does.
I open the dreaded door to my house.
"Hello."My mom says as I close the door.
"Hi." I mumble and start walking up the stairs before she asks the question I don't want to be asked.
"What grade did you get on German, Preston." she asks, there it is. If I tell her she will be disappointed but I guess that she knows I'm a disappointment anyways.
"We're getting the results back tomorrow" I lie.
I hear her grunt and walk back into the kitchen to pamper the golden child, my brother.
Close call, she probably would have screamed at me and reminded me how useless I am if I told her the actual score. After I finish my homework, I walk over to my computer and turn it on. I hover over 'Minecraft'. I haven't played this game for a long time, why not now? I have the free time. I check twitter as the game launches.
I have 2 notifications.
"Hey, is this you Preston? it's rob from the bus stop if you are!" and
"Rob is now following you".
I quickly type back "Yep, hey!" and click reply. In my opinion, I type scarily fast that I have gotten used to this device.

Rob and I continue chatting on twitter for a while and I forget the open game in front of me.
I close the tab.
"Not today." I say to myself mumbling.

I then realise it's getting late, and that I forgot all about eating dinner. Okay, nice work Preston!
I walk downstairs and look at the clock. 11:30, okay looks like I'm having midnight snack.
I grab some toast and start walking upstairs. As I walk towards my room my sister pops out from the bathroom and glances at me.
"Fat pig." she says in disgust as me.
"Okay, whatever your opinion is of me is, I don't care!" I say to her and slam the door of my room.
I hate this house. I hate this family. I hate this school. I hate me.
I don't get what it is.
I tell Rob "I'm going to go to sleep before I overthink too much, goodnight" and close out of twitter. I see a sudden notification asking if I was okay and if I needed to talk to him, but I ignored it as I needed sleep. I appreciate him trying to help me, but at this point I'm beyond being able to be helped out of this crap. I switch off my phone, an turn on my lamp and sleep. Hopefully tomorrow won't be worse than it was today, but with my luck it probably will..
