I've Been Here All Along.

Ch.1

Ch.1

I wake up to the annoying of my alarm clock. I'm surprised that Alex didn't wake me up but then again she rarely ever talks to me unless she wants something. I guess she doesn't have to put on a show around me, she can be herself. Her emotionless, empty self.

I get up and walk to my closet to pick out what I'm going to wear today, it's getting cold so I'll wear a hoodie. As I reach to get it I think to myself about Alex and how she'd probably rather if I wore something more girly and less "lesbian" as she says. She doesn't understand how someone can like even one gender, it's completely barbaric to her for someone to like both genders. Even though I think there are more than two genders. I think people can be in between or even ¾ one or the other. I laugh knowing that I've probably pissed Alex off and that I'll pay for it later today at practice. She always has to be at practice. I pick out the clothes and wait for a moment. No response? That's new. Alex always has an opinion on how I dress, maybe she stopped caring? I look at the time and realize I've wasted too much time, I go down to the bathroom and turn on the shower putting my towel off the rack and onto the heating rack. I like warm towels after I take my cold morning showers, it wakes me up and makes me more alert; like a cup of coffee I guess.

After showering I dry myself and put on my clothes admiring the way I look today. I don't usually dress very girly so it's a pleasant surprise when I do. After applying products to my hair I half-dry it and look into the mirror for a long time. Nothing. Not a peep from Alex, I wonder where she is today, she hasn't said anything all morning. I go to my room and collect my books and binders and go downstairs to meet my parents. As soon as I go down both my parents notice the difference, "Alex?" they both ask as I walk towards them. "Nope still me, just wanted an easy day today yano?" I say as I go towards the fridge looking for something to eat "ah I see, practice is at 4 okay? I have chicken taken out for supper so when you get home make something for all of us, Me and your mother have surgeries all night so we don't be home till late." I sigh and nod as they both kiss me on the cheek and make their way out.  As soon as they are gone I take out some eggs and vet up an onion to make some eggs. I turn on the radio so I can listen to some music while I cook, as soon as I do I notice that I am not the only one in my head now TURN IT OFF! I hear from the back of my mind and I do. Why do you want if off? I like music, stop being a fucking buzzkill I continue making eggs in the quiet.

Hey guys! So this is the first chapter for my book or whatever this is. I don't know how long this book will be but yea.
