Days before... (boyxboy)

Chapter 1

I’m sitting in a hard pew holding my dad’s hand. My aunt Sarah is standing at a podium talking about when my mom was a little girl. My cheeks are already ice cold from the silent tears I’ve been crying.

Half of my brain is screaming “this is a dream! Your moms not really dead.” The other half is replaying every memory I have with my mother in it.

So many people get up and talk about how wonderful my mom was.

“I’m going to the bathroom.” My dad releases my hand and I walk to the back of the church to the bathroom.

I don’t even make it inside. I fall against the wall by the door, sliding down till I’m sitting on the floor. I bury my head in my knees. I don’t want this to be real, this isn’t real, it’s got to be a dream. My sobs are getting to loud I don’t want anyone to find me so I walk out the back door. Its only spring and its chilly so I zip up my hoddie. I pace up and down the side walk trying to get my sobs under control.

“Why god? Why?!?” I yell at the sky.

I sit down on the fire escape stairs and pull out my pack of cigarettes. I grab one out and light it. I take a huge puff blowing the smoke away from the church.

“Smoking isn't good for you.” I jump and look around trying to find where the voice came from.

A guy comes out from behind one of the bushes holding a cigarette in his right hand.

“If it’s so bad then why are you doing it?” I mock him.

He sits on the stairs next to me “everyone has their reasons.”

I turn towards him just now realizing how stunning he looks. He’s got a dark blue button up on which makes his light blue eyes stand out more. His hair is long almost touching his shoulders.  I blink a few times to clear my head.

“Yeah well I’ve got a big reason for doing it.” I try to laugh but my laugh just turns into another sob.

He elbows my arm “hey don’t cry it gets better.”

Like I haven’t heard that a million times. I take a long buff off my cigarette and dry my cheeks. I fucking hate crying.

I look at this guy just now realizing I didn’t even ask his name.

“I’m sorry you don’t want to deal with a little baby crying. I’m gonna go.” I stand up but he grabs my black shirt and pulls me back down.

“One you're not a baby everyone cries when their mom dies, I did, a lot. And two you’re not a bother to me at all. I like company. Now where are my manners?”

He holds out his hand, I shake it. “I’m Danny Socra and you are?”

“I’m um Lucas, Lucas martin.” I barely get out.

“It’s very nice to meet you Lucas.” He releases my hand.

He flips his hair up into a ponytail while I ask “how old are you?”

“16 you?”

I rub my throbbing neck, again damn you crying. “15. You said your moms also dead?”

“Yupp. Car accident three years and two months and a day ago from today. She was the best mom ever.” He smiles at the thought.

“Bet my mom was cooler.” We both let out sad laughs.

We continue sharing stories of our mothers till people start leaving the church. My dad comes up beside the fire escape stairs.

“It’s time to go home.” He says in his stern voice he never had when mom was alive.

Me and Danny stand and give each other a quick hug “be seeing you soon?” he asks.

“I don’t know we’ll have to see.” With that I walk down the stairs and to my dad’s car.

One I get home I go to my room and toss my hoodie on to my bed. A little piece of paper all neatly folded flutters out of the pocket and to the floor. Hm, I didn’t know anything was in my pockets. I go retrieve the paper from the floor and unfold it. Written in neat hand writing it says Danny Socra (208)678-5031. He must have slipped it in there when we hugged. I take it and set it on my dresser not sure if I’ll ever get around to calling him.

I take off my funeral clothes and throw them in my closet not giving a fuck about the fact that they will get all wrinkled, and climb under my heavy comforter wearing nothing but boxers.

My last thought before sleep takes over is “I don’t want to go to that hell they call high school tomorrow.”
