High End of Lifes Downside

Waking Up

Have you ever felt stuck? Like your life is standing still in a empty void with no hope of escape? That is the everyday life of 17 year old Jason. Jason was born into a family of 3. His mother Stella, father Chris, and older brother Kevin. Jason never really fit into his school. He always stood out in a crowd, never blended in. One day after his father losses his job Jason and his family are forced to move from out of there quiet community and into the Suburbs and urban life, following his fathers new job as a car dealer. Now he tries to make his life meaning full to those around him and himself...

"Don't leave me!" A disembodied voice calls from a white fog

"Where are you?" Another voice calls out looking for the other voice

Jason POV

"OMG! OMG! IF ONLY HE KNEW! IF ONLY HE KNEW! IF ONLY HE KNEW ABOU-" I throw my hand and slam the top of my alarm shutting it off

'Day one..' I though in my mind as I slowly sat up in my bed, rubbing my dark brown and red eyes and looking around my white room with band posters slowly becoming visible as the fog clears from my vision (AA, SWS, ATL, FFDP, and SUICIDE SILENCE) I look over at my black alarm. 6:30.

I groan and throw my head back down on my pillow

"It's too early for this shit" I growl and raise back up thinking about my dream

After a few minutes of questioning 'who was that?' And 'what was that about' I realized I had only an hour to get ready

As I slowly forced myself to throw my blanket off and stand up in my boxers and socks, I looked over to my closet.

'What to wear' I thought as I walked over and opened my closet

"That's it!" I smiled to myself and pulled out a black Asking Alexandria tee shirt, black skinny jeans and dark blue socks.

I finished putting on my clothes and walked to my door and down the upstairs hall and into the bathroom and In front of the mirror

'Ew' I thought as I saw my shoulder length hair all over the place 'time to fix this...

After 10 or 15 minutes of combing and straightening it so it will lay down softly over one of my eyes, my black razor cut hair was perfect again.

Then from down stairs I heard a loud crash and ran down to see what happened

"What happened?" I asked walking into the kitchen

"Mom dropped the plate" Kevin said sitting at the table eating pancakes

Kevin was tall, taller than me. I was 5ft 9 and he was 6 ft 3. He had short hair though and was larger than me also. He was also 17 though.

"It was an accident Kevin" Chris said folding his newspaper down

Chris, my dad, was 6ft 4 and had short hair also. But he is turning 39 in the next two months

Unlike the rest of my family, Stella my mom was short. 5ft 6 short. Although she is 36, she also has long soft straight black hair and let me do as I pleased with my hair. But my father always argued with her about it.

As Chris turned the page in the paper I helped Mom clean up the plate

"Thank you, it just got away from me" she smiled and made another plate with pancakes and sat it down In front of me

"Eat up, it's our first day and lunch sucks there" Kevin laughed with food in his mouth

"Yeah.." I said trailing off poking my pancakes

"What's wrong Jay?" Chris asked me, jay being my nickname

"Nothing..." I replied looking down at my pancakes "Just not hungry"

I stood up and pushed my chair in and looked at the clock 7:02

"We needed to leave at 7:30 right?" I ask looking at Kevin

He nods his head since his mouth was filled with pancakes

I chuckle at how much of a messy slob he is, syrup running down his chin onto his blue jersey

As I walk and over put on my black converses I sit on the couch in the living room and wait for it to be time to leave.

I see Kevin burst into the hallway and grabbing his shoes sitting beside me and throwing them on quickly

"So are you ready?" He asks me excitedly

"I guess" I shrug "it's just school" and I stand up and walk out the door into the warm summer air with the wind in my face and blowing through my hair and the sun rising in the distance

"Let's go!!" Kevin rushes past me and jumps in his car and gives me the piece out sign and I fake smile and give him one back

'Idiot' I think to myself as I get into my car and plugging in my iPod and scroll through my music 'asking Alexandria, pierce the veil, black veil brides. Which to choose..' I decide to throw on shuffle and back out...
