He woke up to a bright light in his face. Sonny didn't feel like doing anything. He didn't want to go to school, eat, or wake up. His mother was calling him. He got up and got dressed in a black school shirt, skinny jeans, and a leather jacket. He didn't bother to brush his hair.
"Morning Sonny", his mom said. "Morning", he responded. He smelt bacon but only ate one piece. "Why are you not eating?" his mom asked him. " You on a diet or something?" Sonny just shrugged. He said goodbye and walked to school. A cold breeze hit his face. He saw a cat that always is wandering around at this time. He pet the black and white cat and continued walking.
He got to school and walked to his locker. He saw a note on it. In big letters it said, "FAG". He crumbled it up and threw it away. He wasn't popular, but he was only talked to when he was getting picked on. The bell rang. Sonny sighed. "Another day in hell" he whispered to himself. He walked into class and sat in the back. He started to draw these fish-like creatures he drew when he was bored. Class ended when the bell rang. He was called to the principals office.
"Mr. Moore, please take a seat.", the principal, Mr. Redwood said. Sonny sat down. "Mr. Moore, your grades are not very good. We will have to keep you in detention until you get your grades to at least a B. Until then, you will be in here. I have contacted your mom. This starts tomorrow." Redwood said. " Yes sir" Sonny replied. He got up and walked to lunch.
School was over and the boy went home. He didn't say anything to his mom. He just went strait to his room. He wanted to run away. From school, his home, his life. Why not? Everyone hated him anyways. He took out his laptop and listened to his new song. He called it " Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites". He wanted to leave tomorrow morning. He got a bag ready. He skipped dinner and fell asleep early.
He woke up earlier to leave but he smelt breakfast." Dammit" he said. He ate his breakfast and headed out. "I expect you to do your best today, Sonny" his mom said. "Uh-hu" he said. He walked to school. He felt his mom staring at him through the window. He saw the same cat. He got to school and walked to the principles office. He saw a desk and sat. A few hours later the lunch bell ring. He got up and a teacher ran to him. "Where are you going, Mister?!" she said. "I-I was going to l-lunch." He said. "Oh, I'm sorry". Sonny walked out and looked back. No teachers where around. He ran out the school doors and ran home. His mom was at work. He ran to his room and grabbed his bag. He packed a water bottle, a sandwich,$20, and his laptop and charger. He got out and left home. He walked until he saw an ally. He saw a man. "H-hi", he said. "What are you doing out here? Shouldn't you be in school?" The man asked. "I-I ran away from home and I ditched school", Sonny said. "I have nowhere to go". "Well, you can stay with me for a few days, then you're outta here." "What's your name? I'm Joel." "Sonny."
