Andrea

The next day I woke up with a smile. I didn't have a nightmare about my brother tonight, I slept peacefully not even waking up once.

I still sluggishly hop out if bed. No matter how long I sleep I still am tired, it's really weird. But I don't bother going to get checked out because I don't care enough to.

I go to the bathroom and tie my hair up into a high ponytail letting some short strands fall out and frame my face. I desperately try to see if it looks alright.

I brush my teeth and decide no make up today. Too much effort. The sooner I leave, the sooner I can get to school and see people I care about most. Tyler as well.

Ever since hanging out with him, I feel so close and connected with the guy. He gives me a sensation that felt like home as we laid together in his childhood hideout. It was comfortable. I felt so damn comfortable around I was confused even myself.

I take another look at my hair. I take it out and tie it into a side braid and smile before leaving the bathroom. There, that's what I'm feeling like today.

I pull open my drawers and pull out some black skinny jeans. I tug them up my legs. I pull on some mix matched socks and open my shirt drawers. I take out a while and navy blue baseball tee and put that on. I sigh, asking myself if I'm missing anything. I decide I'm not so I leave my room and make my way to the kitchen. I don't think anyone else is home. I shrug and grab an apple out of the fridge and bite into it. I really have nothing else to do here. It's almost 730 so I decide heading to school would be my best option at the moment, no use in sitting around.

So I pull on my jacket and my gloves, Doc martens and my bag before leaving the house. I remember to lock the front door with my key before I set off.

As I make my way down the sidewalk, I plug in my headphones and begin mentally jamming out in my head.

I be sure to be extra careful while crossing the street, I even take out an ear bud while doing so. Since yesterday I have been pretty paranoid. I've been hiding it though, I didn't wanna bother Tyler with my problems. Ever. Plus I just met him, if I had opened up it would have been odd, I wouldn't want to scare him off. I may feel comfortable around him but hell, I don't wanna open my shell yet.

I finally reach school and slip through the front door. It was 7:43 and yet again I pondered about what to do until my first 8:10 class started.

I went to my locker and dumped off my bag and my outdoor clothing. I grabbed my biology binder, text book and pencil case and went to work at one of the many tables in the hallways.

I notice one is empty so I take advantage and sit, opening my bio text book and revising for the quiz we have today.

I get bored quickly, a.k.a 4 minutes so I shut my text book and place it on my binder. I place my hands down on my book and bury my face in them, my tiredness is really catching up on me.

Then I feel someone take a seat next to me. At first I'm confused, who could it be? My best friend doesn't attend the school, hopefully it's someone I like.

I sit up and turn my head slightly to the right, to face the one and only Tyler Joseph. On the table in front of me cross legged is his partner in crime, Joshua Dun.

"Hey Andrea." Tyler smiles, bumping his knee against mine. I smile at the small gesture

"Hey." I say softly, smiling at him then averting my attention over to his friend.

"Hey I'm Josh." He reaches his hand out. I laugh and take in it mine.

"Andrea." I reply.

"I really like your hair." He suddenly says, releasing my hand.

"I like yours too." I reply, it was true. His hair was purple at the moment and suited hum well.

A small silence fills the air. "What class do you have first?" Josh asks me suddenly.

"Bio." I sigh. "How about you guys?"

"Math." Tyler replies.

"History." Josh says after him. I nod slowly, glancing at my binders. I check phone. It's now almost 8:00 and I still have a little over 10 minute to kill time.

Josh and Tyler converse a out something I don't really listen to, as the conversation didn't involve me.

I zone out and let my thoughts wander, something they did a lot. I usually thought about life which always never ended in a bad way.

No matter what I thought of my brother always made his way into my mind and clouded my thoughts with him and how he never got the chance to get married and have kids and live his fucking life it was ripped from him in a matter of moments and it makes me sad that he couldn't do so.

I have times where I say to myself I'm going to live on for him, do the shit he would just for him. But then I get sad and think it's not worth it if he's not around because I'd rather be doing those things with him.

I feel my eyes begin to tear up. So I snap myself from my thoughts.

"Im going to biology." I announce, standing from my seat. I quickly glance between the boys whis conversation I totally intrupted.

"I'm sorry for interrupting- I'll definitely see you boys later.. Have a nice day both of you." I couldn't even comprehend how fast the words fell from my mouth all I know was they were so quick and I just wanted to get the hell out of there beofre I burst into tears before these friends I can almost call strangers.
