True Colours

Chapter 1

Chapter 1

I feel so distant every day. For everyone. Friends. If I can call them that. Family. I have my mum left as my dad cheated on my mum with his secretary. All I have now is my little cockapoo. Jax, he's brown with white patches. Jax is my dog. No-one else's. MINE.
"Aaron" Mum shouted
"What?" I sighed
"Tea" She replied softly. Geez, I'm such a jerk with her. I can't believe she has put up with me these past 17 years.
"Coming" I shouted back as I raced downstairs to find a lovely, piping hot cottage pie. Mmmnnn I thought as I sat down and grabbed a serving. My half-sister walked through the front door.

"Hiya, Claire. Aaron" she nods. As soon as she does I want to disappear. Julia is such a snotty cow. She'd be nice one day and say horrible things about me to her girlfriend. Jasmine. They're both younger than me by a year. Julia and jasmine are the girls that are popular and cute. Whereas I'm a "nerd". I hate categories of society. They're not even true. The truth about me is that I like to be alone. Another truth is that I can't have a girlfriend because they'll just leave me. But I don't know why they'll say they'll call me. And guess what. I haven't had a phone call since year 8. Now I'm in year 11 sitting my GCSE's. I have so much pressure of passing. (C or above) it's not fair.

After finishing my cottage pie. I climb upstairs to get away from that two-faced cow. I have to get away from here. I thought. I packed an overnight bag. Grabbed my wallet that had £50 inside. I ran downstairs, through the door without a word. I heard my mum shout my name. I walk inside to see her face all red.
"Someone is on the phone for you" she sniffed. After hearing the news I ran Nothing could bring me back now. Not even her.

I ran. Ran far away from my life as fast as I could. I hear a bus. Chugging away from the station. Deep inside I cry. That was the only way. The only way I could find them. By them I mean the voices in my head telling me what to do.

I run to Derek's house and I ring the doorbell. He opens the door and I see a shaggy brown haired boy looking at me all confused. We walk to his room in silence. I feel like he gets me and understands me. He might be similar to me. Maybe that's why.

I told him about the phone call I got. He just sits there in shock.
"mate I'm so sorry," he said sympathetically
"It's okay it's not your fault I went and done it, is it?" I replied
