Hidden Gem

Mark is an asshat

A/N
The picture is Logan, the main character. He's a cutie!

So once again, I'm running. I dropped my backpack and my hat fell off way down the road, but there is no way I'm going back for them. Not while Mark is chasing me. He's a football player, by the way. Way bigger than me. He's totally ripped, and he might way 200 pounds! I literally only way 130. I don't wanna die today, so when I heard Mark yell my name, I was off. Mark and his friends Entoin and Jaden have this thing, and I don't know what it is, but they've always hated me. Maybe it's because I'm gay. But I'm gonna stop thinking and start running faster cause these bitches are right on my tail.

I turn the corner that brings me to the edge of the woods. I look behind me and see that they stopped chasing me, and are cornering me.
"Where you gonna go now, faggot?" I hear Mark say in his low voice. He's pretty sexy but I don't think he's interested.
I grin and use the most smart-ass voice I can muster. "I was just on my way to fuck your bitch." I knew I shouldn't have said that, but how could I not? A mix of shock and anger is showing on Mark's face, but I can tell Entoin and Jaden are trying not to laugh. Mark starts to close in on me. I can't really go anywhere so I just wait for the first blow. It landed on my jaw making me fall to the ground. Next I feel all three of them kick the shit outta my ribs and stomach. It felt like hours before they finally stopped.

Entoin grabs my shirt and pulls me up. Honestly, if he hadn't had such a tight grip on my shoulder I would have fallen to the floor again. I can feel blood dripping down my chin. Mark grabs my chin so I look at him before slapping me.
"Let's go guys. Oh, and meet us by the water fountain at school on Monday, Jesse." Said Mark as he snapped his fingers, which made Entoin let go of me. I fall to the ground and hiss in pain.
"The good fountain or the one that doesn't work?" I quickly ask before they're out of sight.
"THE GOOD ONE YOU DUMBASS!" Mark yells as he turns the corner.

I sit at the edge of the woods unable to move for a while. Who does he think he is? If this asshole knew what we were capable of doing to him he'd be running for the fucking hills by now.

It takes me a while to get up. At first I just stand there gaining support from the closest tree. All I can think about is how I'll get revenge someday. Revenge on Mark and his 'friends', revenge on my parents, revenge on Mr. Garlend. Everyone who deserves it.

I finally feel better enough to start walking home. I have to pick up my backpack and hat on the way if they weren't stolen already. I sigh at the thought of not being able to afford new ones.

It's a long walk home, and it's dark by the time I get there. I found my backpack at least, but my hat was gone. I made it to my run down apartment building and slowly unlocked the lobby door. Then very slowly I was able to make my way to my so called home. I tossed my bag onto the floor and grabbed some water from the kitchen before crawling into bed. There's no way a 17 year old can survive like this, I know. But my parents kicked me out when I told them I was gay. They paid for the apartment the first time, but now I'm paying. For everything. I have 2 jobs, making not nearly enough money. My sister pitches in a little though. She lives in Ohio, and I live in Maine so it's hard to transfer money. I get by though.

I feel my eyelids get heavy and drift to sleep.

Mr. Garlend grabs my hair. He slaps my face and forces my pants down. He unzips his pants and pushes into me without warning, while I scream begging him to stop. He doesn't.

I wake up in a cold sweat and sit up. My breathing is faster. Why can't I ever dream of something else?! Ever since that bastard did that to me I can't have a good dream! Not even a different nightmare, I don't care just anything other than that damn dream!!!
I get up and stomp into my kitchen. I sit on the counter and think. I try to think of anything else than what happened. I look at the few books I could afford that are stacked on my table. I hold out my hand and concentrate. As always, Kai makes one of them lifts from the table and drift over to me. It lands in my hand as intended. I open it and start reading.

Anything else...

A/N
Hiii!!!! I hope you liked the first chapter, I enjoyed writing it! Oh and if you didn't catch it, basically the main character, Jesse, was raped by one of his teachers and is traumatized. Sorry if your sensitive to that! Also, just to explain things, Kai is a spirit attatched to Jesse and makes it so Jesse can move things with his mind, kind of, Idk it's hard to explain. Also, I changed the main character's name from Logan to Jesse because Logan was originally named after my friend Logan who turned out to be an asshole.
Plus, comment if you think you know where I got the name Entoin (En-toe-in) from. I'll shout you out! Have a great day, I should update soon! Byye!!!!
