Im making this because this is actually how I feel. Me and my sister just got our report cards and.. let's just say I'm Grayson.. :/

_____________________________________________

Ethan and Grayson Dolan. Two twins that go to the same school. They both have the same teachers, same classes, same everything, yet they both view school differently.

Ethan doesn't like school whatsoever. However, he is very good in his classes. He got all hundreds on his tests and he finds school to be quite easy. He asks questions all the time to make sure he understands the material and is actually also well liked in school.

Grayson on the other hand is different. He has learning disabilities (yes. I do to. Please don't be like my class and say I'm saying that for attention thanks) and is a bit slow. He doesn't like to ask questions in class to afraid people will make fun of him for it. He doesn't know if he is liked by his classmates. They tend to exclude him and make him feel like shit.

But don't hunk Grayson doesn't try. He spends his nights staying up till four or not even sleeping if he has to, to study relying on endless cups of coffee to allow him to stay up. However, he still doesn't get the greatest marks.

He thinks it's his fault. That he doesn't try hard enough. That he's just so stupid.

Grayson was snapped out of his thoughts when his mother called his name.

"Grayson your father is speaking to you" she chuckled.

"Ethan got a hundred on his Bio test." His father smiled at Ethan. "What'd you get on yours?" He asked.

Grayson hesitated to answer. He looked down in embarrassment. He didn't want to answer the question knowing he didn't get a good mark.

"Well?" His father asked again.

"I-uh.. I- um.. Igotasixty" He said quickly.

"What?" He father chuckled.

Grayson sighed. "I got a sixty" Grayson  said sadly and looked down embarrassedly.

"A sixty?" His father asked.

Grayson sadly shook his head. He looked up at Ethan who had soft eyes and looked as if he wanted to come and hug his younger brother. But, Grayson didn't say anything. He just kept looking down playing with his fingers.

"How'd you get a sixty?" His mother asked. "You know report cards get sent in the mail tomorrow" She said sternly.

"Yes. I know. Okay. I know." He said putting his fork down and getting up going to his room.

After dinner was over. Ethan went up to Grayson's room and put his ear by the door listening to graysons soft sobs.

"You're so stupid" Ethan heard him say over and over again. He decided to open the door and saw Grayson laying face down on his bed. His face buried into one of his many pillows. His fists clenching the sheets.

"Gr-gray?" Ethan called.

"What do you want? Here to gloat about your stupid A+?" He sobbed sitting up.
