Tom:
I could hear my father arguing with my grandmother. I am too sober for this. I go over to my bed and pull out a fox from under it. I open the box take out a can of beer and open it and begin to drink it. After a few drinks, I decide to sleep.
✨Tue, Aug 12✨
I wake up and check the time it says 2:49 am. Wow, I woke up really early today. I stand up or at least try to. My head so fucking much. God, I should not have drank that much. I enter the bathroom that's in my room. I turn the light on. "Shit, that's bright," I mumble I close my eyes and open them slowly trying to get used to them.
After a minute I give up and just decide to squint. I go to open the cabinet above the sink. God, I look like shit. I open the cabinet and take out a bottle of Advil and take out two pills. I turn on the water and drink a bit of it. I sigh today is gonna be a long day.
Maybe I should skip school? I turn off the faucet and walk over to the shower turning the water on. I put my hand under the water waiting for it to turn hot. When it's hot enough I take my hand from under the water and begin to undress. I put my clothes in the laundry basket, and get in the shower.
After I step out of the shower I wrap a towel around my waist. I was a bit more awake now. I enter my room running a hand through my wet hair. I walk over to my drawer and pull out some underwear and a pair of shorts. After getting dressed I go back to sleep.
✨A while later✨
I did eventually fall asleep but was woken up at 7 am by my parents yelling. How nice. "Why are you still sleeping!?" Yelled my father. I open my eyes slowly the light blinding. I quickly shut them. "Could you not yell so loudly, you're hurting my ears," I say groggily. I rub the sleep from my eyes as I sit up.
"Are you hungover right now!?" Asked my mom in a high voice. Like damn, I already asked y'all to be quiet don't have to go and get louder. "You really are a disgrace to this family!" my father yells with a bitter tone. "Oh my fucking god, can you shut up!? Jesus, I already asked you to be quiet and here you are yelling my ear off. I get it you're disappointed but when are you not. So can you just say it lower!?" I yell back.
"We are more than disappointed in you. We are disgusted and appalled. But we won't get into that right now. Get up and get ready for school." My mom says in a lower tone the bitterness still there. "I'm not going." My parents scoffed at my statement.
I let myself fall back into my bed and cover my face with the pillow to block the light. My parents sigh giving up. As they left I heard my mom whisper "I don't even know why we bother... he's destined for failure." They close the door behind them, leaving the lights on like monsters.
I debate whether I should get up and turn it off or lay here and wait for someone else to turn it off, or till I decide to actually get up. I end up getting out of bed and stumble as I go to turn the lights off. I walk back to my bed and lay down, my face on the pillow.
✨Wed, Aug 13✨
Yesterday was ass, my parents wouldn't stop harassing me and yelling at me about me drinking and being hungover and not going to school on the second day. Thankfully my grandmother who very well understands the process of being hung over made them stop yelling at me. Thankfully they leave tonight and I won't have to see them for a few years at least.
Later when I enter my 3rd period I get hit in the back of my head by Julia "Why weren't you here yesterday? Were you that tired of school after one singular day?" she asked. We walk over to our seats and sit down. Sam and Markus eventually join us asking me why I hadn't shown up yesterday. "I had a shitty hangover and decided to stay home. Of course, I was harassed by my parents but it is what it is." I tell them.
✨later, lunch✨
The entire time we were in the lunchroom Julia had her eye on Sam. He was obviously annoyed and complaining. It was really funny to watch. Me and Markus were snickering. Her gaze never left him, not even for a second. When she had gotten up to get food she still stared at him she walked backward to not lose eye contact.
"I don't even know why she feels the need to keep an eye on me," complained Sam. "Dude you should have been here yesterday she was doing the same exact thing. It's fucking hilarious," said Markus addressing me. He was laughing his ass off. Amelia and Sammy were taking photos and Janice was on her phone she seemed mad.
"The food here is ass," said Quinton. I'm friends with him but only at parties or practice. I couldn't help but feel like someone was watching me. I subtly look around and notice Jack staring at me. Odd. Hold on why is he staring at me a whole lot often? Could it be... no I doubt it.
✨After school✨
After school, I meet up with my friends "Any of you wanna hang out for a while? I don't really want to go home yet." I say.
"I wish but I work today," said Markus. "I wish I could but I have to help my parents with dinner," said Sam. Amelia and Sammy were already walking away they had planned to hang out at Sammy's house today. Janice's mom arrived to pick her up. Which left Julia.
"I have nothing going for me so why not? Let's go bestie!" with that she drags me to my car. We get in and I drive to her house. I park my car we get out and she unlocks the front door. Once we enter she turns the lights on.
It's lowkey sad. She lives here... alone. "Hey Julia, are you sure you're okay mentally?" I ask her. She turns to look at me "In all seriousness, no, I want someone who I don't think wants me. I won't say who tho. And I live alone it gets lonely but that's why I hang out with you and some other friends. Which leaves my house very dusty and dirty. Speaking of which now that you're here mind helping me clean some of the rooms?" she asks.
I nod my head. "Sure, I have nothing better to do." we walk to one of the rooms and before she opens the door she says "Okay, so this is probably the dirtiest room in the mansion ok? Try not to get too scared." I roll my eyes, scared, Why would I get scared? She opens the door and walks in I follow behind her.
As soon as I walk in I see a shit load of webs... spider webs. I look around before my eyes land on the ceiling. A spider, the size of my hand tho it is skinny it is huge! I let out one of those girly shrieks in horror movies. Not my best moment. I clear my throat "I mean ahhh" I run out of the room.
"Yeah no you could not page to go back in there." Julia began to laugh at both my scream and how I had been confident I wouldn't have gotten scared but did anyway. "It's only a few daddy-long legs and a few smaller spiders that can't harm you."
There was a pause. "Oh my god I wish I was recording i just know the others would have laughed at that scream." I roll my eyes at her again. "It's not funny and what happened in that room stays in that room okay?" I say.
