Luke's POV
I lay awake, listening to hum of city outside and the rain hitting off my window. I watched as the rain drops raced each other down the window, eventually joining each other as they neared the bottom. The rain on the window blurred the city lights that shone through the darkness of the night.

I glanced towards the digital clock on my bedside table, the numbers reading 3:56. Most teenagers my age would be sound asleep, perhaps dreaming, and would be awoken in the morning to the beeping of their alarm clock.

However this wasn't the case for me. I didn't sleep. It's not that I didn't want to because believe me, I would love to close my eyes and blissfully dream and forget about all my worries at night, yet I physically can't. I suppose that I should be grateful that don't have to worry about setting an alarm and having to rush to get ready in the morning since I'm already awake, but I'm not.
My mum calls it 'insomnia' but everyone else just calls it 'being a freak.'

I continued to watch the rain fall and waited to watch the sun rise over the rows of buildings in the distance, as I wallowed in my thoughts. 

Okay so this is the first Fanfic I've ever written so hope this is an okay start!
