My Roommate. My Savior.

Chapter 5

(Grayson's POV)

I hope I didn't miss anything at graduation. I didn't go because my family and I rented a cabin for the summer so that we could spend some time together before I go to college. Plus I wasn't all that excited to go to graduation anyway. I just feel like this year for graduation someone was going to give an epic speech or something, but I'm sure if that happened, it'll be posted on Facebook or something. Sadly, mom and dad are taking my phone for the summer because they don't want it to be a distraction to family time.

We started our drive this morning at like four o clock in the morning. My mom said that we were going to leave early but in my personal opinion it was way before early. I don't think you can call four o clock in the morning early. Macy and Mason weren't to excited about it but once we get to the cabin I'm sure they'll be better.

Mom is driving because dad is not a morning person at all. Now this wouldn't be a big deal on the road except, when we go on road trips he brings his gun and puts it in the car door pocket and the traffic in California is crazy. We don't want him to get road rage. Mom is a morning person but she is also and evening person, I'm not sure what you call someone who is happy all the fucking time. When I was younger I could do anything and mom wouldn't even blink. And I was smart enough not to do anything in the morning cause dad would get after me with his belt.

Anyway, seeing as I woke up at four, I am decide to listen to music until I fall asleep.

---------------------------------

Good nap, but now it's over because we just got to the cabin. I'm so excited. No people all summer. I can play with my brother and sister, I can conversate with my parents and not feel the need to act like a complete douche bag because my friends are there and I don't want to embarrass myself in front of them. Shocking as it may sound, this cabin is like my heaven on earth.

"Alright, kids. Are we ready for this great summer?" Mom asks look at us in the rear view mirror.

Macy and Mason shout a yeah and I say, "Definitely!" I jump out and help with the bags. Cause we have suit cases and food bags and more food bags and because mom likes to over pack we have more suit cases too. I have my work cut out for me.

---------------------------------

Well, an hour later and I have finally unloaded the car. All the bags are in our rooms and all the food is in the kitchen. And I am ready for a ginormous meal and a very long and much needed nap.

I don't know why I'm so tried. Maybe it's cause it's hard and tiring to be as hot as I am....kidding. I'm not actually that prideful although in high school people thought I was. But desperate times call for desperate measures and the last three years of high school were desperate times.

It may have been the fact that my girlfriend of a year and a half cheated on me with my brother and it damaged me, especially because when he was still living with us he took pride in the fact that he was gay. I think that if you're gay you should be prideful. I adored his pride but to be so proud of your sexuality and then to betray your twin brother doing something that was completely against it, it's just a little, for lack of a better word, stupid. ( A/N If you can think of a better word comment it.) But then again, who am I to judge. That may be the reason I was very mean in high school but, if you're nice to everyone you make friends and if you make friends you get hurt. I don't want to get hurt again.

Anyhoozer, on a more serious note, I wonder what mom's making for dinner? I walk downstairs to ask her. When I get down the stairs I walk into the living room. "Hey mom?" I ask sitting down on the couch.

"What's up, Bubba?" She asks looking at me.

I smile innocently, "What's for dinner?"

She rolls her eyes, "Food!" She snaps.

"Maaaa! What kind of food?" I whine.

She gives me an evil smirk, "The kind you eat."

I growl and glare at her. "Ya don't say."

"Actually, I do and did say. Go get Macy and Mason and take them outside." She bops my nose and walks into the kitchen.

I walk upstairs and into the twins room. Macy is playing with her barbie and Mason is playing with his car. "Let's go." I say as I grab them and put one of them on each of my shoulders. "Mom told me to take the trash out." They scream.

"Grayson we are not trash. Meanie." Macy says.

---------------------------------

(Time skip to dinner)

I carry Macy and Mason inside for dinner and sit them down at the table. Mom sets our plates down in front of us and sits down.

"Grayson, did you hear about what happened at graduation?" mom asks me, taking a bite of her mashed potatoes.

"No. What happened?" I ask, confusion written all over my face.

"Well, I heard some girl told the whole school about how she has been abused everyday of her life and then ran away. Apparently it was all in the autobiography she wrote for her final grade." She explains.

"Oh. Did you hear who it was?" I ask wondering if I know who it was.

"No. I didn't hear but I'm sure we can find out." She says.

After that we finished our dinner in silence and went to bed. I brush my teeth and put on some sweat pants then I lay down in bed.

Well, I guess I missed quite the show at graduation, huh? I bet it is all over social media so I'll hear about it later.

And that's my last thought before I let darkness take over.
