So this is my second attempt at writing a book as the first was absolute rubbish and no doubt this one will be as well but you gotta at least try some times :) This will be boyxboy or boyxman whatever you want to call it but it won't be that much of an age gap and I'm not really into the whole minor/adult kinda thing so um yeah... storytime and I know it's short but oh well what can you do. :D

Prologue

Weightless, that's how I felt, breathing but not at the same time, if that makes any sense.

Life was easier when I was there, it was my escape, my safe haven, the place I went to when my thoughts got the best of me and I felt like ending it then and there but I didn't because I'm not that selfish.

I hit off the wall and stopped, reaching the surface and breaking through, cold water cascaded down my face but I wasn't bothered about it, it actually felt quite nice, like warming your hands up on a cup of hot chocolate after you've just came in from the bitter cold, the relief you get when you start to feel like you won't die of frostbite, knowing you're going to be okay, that is what I feel when I swim.

I could hear cheering and whistling in the background but I just ignored it knowing it wouldn't be me that won the school swimming competition because I never win anything and even if I did nobody would cheer for me, that's just the way things are.

I'm not the most popular person in the school, in fact I'm not popular at all, it's a wonder I even have Joe and Penny as my best friends but I'm thankful they are, they keep me going and if I didn't have them I don't think I would even be here right now.

I was right, I didn't win, Eric did, -he's the most popular boy in school and you can see why he is, he has the looks of a Greek God, the nicest personality ever, he's in nearly every sports team, and he is a straight A student, he is the golden boy- like always but I'm not complaining, why should I? All I wanted to do was swim and I done that so I climbed up the steps to get out of the pool and grabbed my towel and got ready to go home.

I guess you're probably wondering who I am so, the names Danny, Danny Peters if you want the whole thing and this is the story of how I was saved.
