Chapter 1

*Mentions of eating disorders* 

Jack

Like most days, I woke up feeling like shit. I checked my phone and saw that it was nearly two in the afternoon. All I seem to do lately is sleep, when I come home from school I go to bed and fall asleep almost immediately and don't wake up until 6 the next morning, and at the weekends I wake up late and go to bed early. 

I lay in bed for a while scrolling through instagram, after about an hour I decided to go downstairs to get some food, I walk downstairs in an oversized hoodie and a pair of gray sweatpants. I look in the bathroom mirror and I look half dead, the bags under my eyes make it look like I havent slept in days, when all I have done is sleep, my once bright green eyes have gone dull and my dark brown hair is tousled. 

When I walk in to the kitchen I hear my brother and his friends in the living room probably playing on the PS5 or something. My older brother, James, is on the football team and is very popular, most of his friends are dickheads and I try to avoid them at all costs, he has a nice enough girlfriend, her name is Evelyn they've been dating for almost 2 years. 

I start to rumage through the cupbords looking for something to eat, when one of James friends walk in I've seen him around school a few times but I don't remember his name, I think he's on the football team. "Oh, hey, sorry I didn't know there was someone in here" he says as he runs his hand through his black hair. "It's fine" I mumble, not looking him eye. I hate looking people in the eye, I don't really know why I just don't. 

"I needed to get away from them for a few minutes" he says gesturing towards the living room. I give him a small smile not knowing how to respond. "My names Miles, what yours" he askes in a gentle tone. "Jack" I say nervously. "You're James brother, right" I nodded. "he talks about you quite a bit". I didn't know how to respond to that so I changed the subject, "Why did you need to get away from them". "Oh they were talking about football and I don't really like football" he says looking down at his shoes. I frowned at that "Don't you play football" I asked confused. he nodded. "Why do you play it if you don't like it" I asked even more confused then I was 10 seconds ago. He frowned "I don't really know why, I guess becaue all my friends do". "Oh, ok" we fell into a very uncomfortable silence. Before either of us could say anything else the door opened and James and all his friends walked in. 

They were talking about getting food or something, I quickly turned around and grabbed some food and left as quick as could, I really don't like crowds espically when said crowd contains my brothers dickhead friends. When I got back to my room I ate some food and tried to go back to sleep but I couldn't stop thinking Miles, the way he ran his hands through his hair and his beautiful blue eyes. Wait Beautiful no, I don't like him like that, do I? No definitely not, he's just another one of my brothers friends, yeah. Just one of James friends. 

I was dragged out of my thoughts by my phone ringing, it was Lilly my closest and best friend. "Hey" I said answering the phone. "Hey babes" she said with a smile. "Have you eaten today?". I nodded. "Cool, what did you have" she asked as if it was a normal thing to ask your friends, that was one of the things I loved about Lilly, she never made a big deal out of anything. "I had a sandwich and some cookies" I said nervously, a few months a had a really bad eating disorder and I am getting a lot better but there's still some bad days. "Nice" she said. "Can I come over?". I gave her a weak smile and nodded. 

Me and Lilly met in 6th grade, she had just moved here. On the first day of school she decided that I was going got be her friend. She has always been there for me, even when I was being a dick. I wouldn't be here without her, last year she saved my life. 

About 20 minutes later a heard the doorbell ring I quickly ran down the stair to open the door before James could. when Lilly walked in she gave me a hug "Hey babes I missed you". "I saw you two days ago" I said hugging her back. "Yeah, that was so long ago" she said smirking. We walked upstairs and put on a movie, i tried to distract myself but my mind kept wandering back to Miles, I couldn't stop thinking about him. I eventually fell asleep, thinking of him. 

A/N

I hope you guys liked that, it was kinda an introduction chapter. I promise the next one will have a bit more plot and more Miles ;)

Also to please my friends I am dedicating this chapter to 'Grealds witches'. (for context that is the name of the groupchat)
