A alternate reality thing x

Before I tell you about now, I'm going to explain about the angels and devils. So, the angel is something that makes you have a good day, like even if something goes wrong it will help you to see the bright side of things and get over it. The 'happy days' are days when, if family are ill or dying, you would want anything bad to happen on one of these days because then you won't be sad and depressed ad you will be able to get over it, however, on the days when the devil is controlling you everything goes wrong, like if you fall over on a devil day it would hurt way more than it should.
I walked through the halls of the school. Nobody was there because I was late as usual. Not that I didn't want to be, it's a lot better walking through halls when nobody is staring and pointing at you. It's nicer when you don't hear the whispers and cruel words said, it's like they think I don't exist.
Everyone has the angel, and everyone has the devil. Apart from me. I have neither. They are supposed to make you have good an bad days. Some people, think that they control people's emotions, which would make sense but I don't know if I believe it. They aren't things you can see but you know if you have them or not. For the majority of my life I portended to have them but it was blatantly obvious I didn't, for half the day I might be bubbly an happy and then at the end I might be moody and tired.
Being different sucks. It's ok if the differences are small like hair colour or interests, but when it's something like this, which sets you far apart from everyone else, you become isolated, you wish with all your heart that you could just be regular, you'd give anything to just simply blend in, and then there's basically all these 'normal' people who turn your defences against you.
That's exactly how my life is I'm lacking something that every single other person in this world has. Everyone has at least one good day in a week, but all mine could be bad. Nobody understands well, apart from my mum she accepts me which is good because she is the only family I have left, however, even with her encouraging words, telling me I am just as good as anyone else, I know she is just fed up of me being sad, and so am I to be honest.
There is a new person coming today. They are a boy, I think his name is josh
*time skip to next day*
I sighed dragging my worn shoes along the path on the way to school, but I would rather be anywhere than there. I can't stand school, all the judgmental looks, the taunting, the bullying. I notice the looks I receive every time I walk through the gates.
I look at the ground fed up of people calling me a freak, if anything they are, it shouldn't be normal to have a day where everything is great or where everything is bad. I pull the sleeves of my black sweater down more, clenching the extra material in my fists as I keep on walking forward. I should be used to the staring by now.
If people want to think I'm weird I'll let them, but if they had just one hour in my mind they would see my side of things.
I stand at my locker, staring into the small, dark, metal box. 'Hey josh' a cheery voice spoke, directing his noise at the new boy. There was a wide grin on the new boys bearded face as he greeted his friend, well, I am presuming they are friends. They both walked away happily to there next class, which turned out to be the same as mine. The teacher looked confused when I walked in because I was usually late, but that soon left when she saw josh. 'Hello mr Bradley, can you introduce yourself to the class please' the teacher asked him. He shook his head and walked to my seat at the back of the class. Ok, i thought he was cool until he sat in my seat and now the only seat left was one right at the front. 'Mr minter please take a seat, I need to tell the class about our project' everyone turned to look at me, when the teacher said my name, causing me to go red. I took the chair from the front, which made people laugh, and brought it to the back of the class to sit next to josh. 'Hey minter' he said. Wow his voice. I smiled and blushed, he chuckled and the teacher told everyone about the project. Josh started to look bored and unhappy not like he was this morning.
Wierd.
'So will we do this stupid project at my house then' I asked, slightly worried people would have told him about me and he wouldn't want to associate with me, but to my luck he said yes. I'm so pleased that this lesson is first because it might mean that the rest of my day goes well.
Josh seams like a really nice genuine guy but I can't help thinking that this is all just some sick prank people are playing on me, it's going to stay at the back of my mind but I can tell that josh wouldn't do something like that, I mean I have only known him about an hour but he seems like he would be truthful and nice.
I lied about the rest of the day being ok, it's been horrible. I got shoved into the wall and really hurt my arm, it's the one I right with to which makes the situation ten times worse. I really just wanted to be unnoticed today but that obviously hasn't worked.
I was planning on telling my mum he was coming over but he would probably leave before she came back from work so it should be fine. Then I wouldn't have to explain that we aren't dating and he is just a partner for a project.
It's been a week and we haven't done anything on the project every time he had to cancel because of some rubbish excuse.
I have been noticing things that I have with him like how my mood changes a lot his does to.
When we got to my house I was planning on asking him if he was the same but I don't know if he would feel comfortable talking about it and I don't want him to leave. 'Hello sweetie' my mum said giving me a warm hug. 'And who might you be?' She asked josh. 'My names josh I'm Simons partner for a English project. She nodded and went back to cooking. I walked up to my room with josh following. 'I-I want to ask you something' I said as I sat on my bed. Josh nodded for me to carry on. 'Well you know how I said I didn't have an angel or a devil' he nodded slowly. 'Well I-I was umm, wondering if um, if you, if you didn't either' he froze sitting completely still on the bed. 'You don't have to say if you don't want to' I quickly added. He shook his head 'you are correct I don't' josh said sounding, sad?
Me and josh walked into school the next day with our heads held high. Reassured that there was someone else in the world the same as us and that we now aren't alone.
I don't like the ending but i hope you enjoyed
