CHAPTER 6: A Regular Monday . . . .

(TW, there is some verbal abuse, homophobia, an a little mention of blood in this chapter please do not continue if those things are triggering for you 🙁💔)

. . . .

Johnny swung up from his rest, cold sweat covering his hollow body screaming in terror. He would have nightmares frequently but never any this scary he couldn't even comprehend anything, he was so frightened he couldn't stop shaking.

He jolted as the door swung open and hit the wall, it was Sid and he was enraged. He looked like he was about to hit Johnny, just like in the dream but it never came. He just started to yell at Johnny "Why the hell are you yelling you little shit, when will you go out and get a fucking job your useless!".

Johnny hated Sid with all of his heart he hated everything about him, every second he was there felt like taking a year away from Johnny's life he was so over it. Sid scratched his stubble "Whatever just get up fucking fairy" Usually someone would get very insulted and mad at that statement but Johnny knew all too well that wouldn't end easy, it's not like he could talk back but if he could he would say a lot of things that would probably get him hit again, and besides it's nothing new to johnny he was getting quite bored with that particular insult.

As soon as Sid's big frame left the doorway the shaken blonde boy jolted up and shut the door to get changed. Johnny felt so guilty about his mother that he just wanted her to come back and make things the same again minus Sid, hopefully, he would be gone by then. He wanted to let her go but he didn't know how he just knew she was alive somewhere he had a gut-wrenching feeling she was still out there.

Entering the bathroom now already dressed all he had to do was his hair and he was out but ... something got in the way.

His reflection scared him, he looked so much like his mother it was terrifying especially since he had to look at himself every day it gave him the chills and always made him ponder about her." Everything is fine, everything is going to be fine" he said to himself knowing it wasn't true, it's the biggest lie he has ever told and he has told a lot of lies.

With that he left his sad face and confused thoughts, masking it with a confident smile, walking down the stairs and to the door and looking back at his now sad and hallowed husk of a once beautiful home. He walked out of the home on his bike feeling the crisp air on his skin while riding to school with his gang of friends behind him, not being able to shake the horrible feeling . . . .

DANIEL'S POV:

What Daniel thought was a Sunday morning turned out to be a Monday morning, ruining his mood entirely. He sat up in his bed rubbing the sleep out of his eyes, getting ready to get up to go and get ready. Daniel thought about the other day and how sad it made him feel when he played back the memory of Johnny tearing up, wondering what was upsetting him and what he was thinking about or maybe who he was thinking about.

Daniel didn't know anything about Johnny's past but he was willing to listen, he felt like that was his mission for the week, to find out what made Johnny so sad and to help him through it like a good.... Daniel's inner speech paused as he realized he didn't even know what they were.

I mean they weren't friends but they weren't anything serious either at least he didn't think so everything made Daniel so confused especially recently, and it was very aggravating. Daniel was shot out of his thoughts by the door slamming open, it was his mother and she seemed very worried "Daniel do you realize what time it is" she said with a very exasperated voice "Uhhh no?" Her eyes widened at the dumb response "It's time for you to go to school your late!" She yelled.

He grabbed some snacks and his lunch and ran out of the door, hair slightly messy but right now all he cared about was getting to school as soon as he could. The brunette hopped on his bike and biked to school as fast as he could. He walked up the school steps right on time as the first bell to get to class rang.
