It's A Long Way Down

1

"Wake up Zayn! Your going to be late!" I hear my mum scream from downstairs, causing me to wake from my slumber. I rubbed my eyes and rolled out of the bed and fell on the floor and just laid there thinking about reasons why today was going to be good, and so far there were no reasons coming to mind. It was a Monday and I was going to school so therefor no reason to be happy.
I got up from the floor and walked into my closet grabbing a grey long sleeve, some skinny jeans, and a leather jacket, and a pair of black and white vans. I got dressed quickly and did my hair up into a quiff. I was out of my room and out of the house after grabbing my phone, keys, and my backpack.
I got into the car and began driving to hell, and I listened to music till I pulled up into the parking lot I knew all too well.
I slammed the door to my Challenger and walked into the campus, getting hit on by different guys and girls.
You see, me and my best mate Harry, we own these halls. No one ever tried to mess with us because they know we can take them out easily. Every girl has a crush on me, and I don't fuck with any of them because I'm straighter than a circle. I've known that I was gay since the minute I stepped into middle school, but I haven't exactly come out yet. Harry and my other best mate Niall know, but nobody else.
"Hey look it's Zaynie!" Harry yelled to Niall as he ran over to me and tackled me down.
"Get the fuck off me you hoe!" I yelled pushing Harry off me and fixing myself up again. He laughed at me and ran a hand through his hair.
I took my phone out of my pocket and noticed it was 2 minutes till the bell rang so I figured why not go have a smoke. I waved goodbye to Harry and walked out of campus and back into my car and pulled out a cigarette and a lighter and lit one up. I've tried quitting, but it's just so addictive and I can't stop.
I finished a couple minutes later and I heard the late bell right and I smirked and said there's my cue.
I got out of my car and threw the cigarette on the floor and stepped on it and walked back into the school and headed to class.
I walked into class and was greeted by my least favorite teacher Mrs.Gertrude aka my English teacher.
"Your late again Mr.Malik, not that there's any difference from every other day." She said rolling her eyes and grabbing my tardy card.
I smiled at her and tried my best to act innocent when in real life I wanted to choke her.
I sat down and pulled my headphones out of my pocket and listened to music as I watched the people around me do the notes Mrs.Gertrude assigned.
A couple minutes later a small boy came walking into class as we all started the pre-test the teacher assigned. Everyone's eyes were on him which made him blush and i knew he had to be mine.
