Prologue

I sigh, sitting myself on the bed as one would do at a table. I look down at the small Polaroid in my hand. If someone saw it what would they think of me? I shove it into my sock draw (draws dedicated to socks, seems legit) seeing the last of the rosy red flowers that filled the room with light. I kick my shoes off allowing them to thud into the dull wall opposite me. "Okay.. Maths test... Science.. English..." I pause walking over to my desk and sitting down. I pull out all my books from my bag placing them in a pile on the floor. "Okay, Vikk we're not staying up too late this time. 2 am is the limit.."

I hear footsteps just as my door creaks open "Vikk? 2 am is.. Two hours to far.. Honey get some sleep... please?" My mother gives me a weary smile and of course, what son would I be if I didn't smile back? "How much of this is actually due tomorrow?" She starts, I know exactly where she's coming from. Do what is due the tomorrow day, and maybe a little bit of what's due the day after that . " I just have maths and science..." I try to change the subject "what's for dinner?" She looks down and shakes her head "I don't know honey, you'll have to go through the fridge and help yourself" I nod leaving us two in silence for a minute, after a fair bit of time my mother leaves, allowing me to be in silence. I check the time, it reads 5:14 pm, not too late I'll have dinner soon I guess.

"SIMOOON" I let out a small groan while I get off of bed and slide my phone in my pocket. I slide my shoes off and chuck them into a pile of clothes in the corner of my room and shut the door behind me as I make my way down the stairs. "WHAAAT MUUM" I finally make my way to the kitchen sitting at one of the bench stools and begin spinning myself around. " Simon stop please, your driving me up the wall!" I begin kicking the wall of the bench and at this point my mum looses it "SIMON, GO DO HOMEWORK OR.. OR CALL ONE OF YOUR FRIENDS FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!" (smh Simon) I snicker and jump of the chair and call my friend Josh.

"And you know what the worst part is..." I say as I throw the ball up in the air, catching it in the hand unoccupied by the phone. "Yeah?" Josh replies "I walked past him standing on the park bench, looming over a rose bush, with an old Polaroid camera" I let out laughing towards the end "What did you do?" He asks curious "well I didn't do much I just stood until he noticed me, and when he did he pulled his hood over and ran home!" I hear snickering on the other end "oh shit... YES MUM OKAY ILL COME DOWN! I'm sorry Simon, my mum wants me to do some stuff, I'll text you if it gets boring" he simply states, I nod although he can't see me "Oki doki Zerkaroonie" he laughs "Cya!" I say as I pull the phone from my ear and hang up. I sigh, I really wasn't looking forward to the maths assignment tomorrow. I'd probably flunk it like I do everything else. But, who cares about maths anyway? Not me.. I hate it.

I snap my folder shut, that was it the last of my homework done, and what was the time... 11:48! Record! I smile to myself, glancing over to the draw that I shoved the image into, shaking my head.

My father always told me even when there's bad days, good days will shine. My mum on the other hand "Why do you worry about him Vikk, he just wants the fame, the money. He can't stand being unaccepted, he can't stand being alone! He isn't one bit humble, he's just plain.. No words can express it. You my boy you are humble, you take heart to even the smallest things. Your smile could light up a million rooms, radiant beams. You are perfect Vikk, and he.. Well he could do with a little bit of improving. But who am I to say you couldn't fix him up"
