"Night falls, and we're falling in circles. Whoa Wh-." I reached over and turned my ipod alarm clock off. Somewhere along the line I had lost my dinosaur one. Oddly, I was kind of glad. It gave me bad memories.

I turned onto my side, and looked down on the cement floor. The family portrait lay on the ground, shattered. I shot up out of bed and leaned down next to it. "What did I do......?" I brushed off the broken glass, and removed the picture. I breathed a sigh of relief, I hadn't ripped it up. Guess I got too drunk last night.

For some reason, I was terribly afraid of forgetting their faces. It felt like if I forgot them, I really would be all alone. Except for Shelly. I don't know what came over me to smash that to pieces.

I pushed the glass aside with my foot, but kept a large broken peice. It could come in handy.

I laid the picture on the ground, and picked up a couple heavy pieces of the glass, then placed them on top. So I wouldn't accidentally step on it, or blow it away.

The front door flew open, and Shelly came barging in, all dolled up for school.

"Come on lazy ass! Get up and- oh. You're awake. What did you do?" She looked at the broken glass. "Oh well, anyways... Get ready you freaking hobo! You look horrible!" She started to drag me towards the shower.

" Thanks so much Shelly. I really care what I look like." I rolled my eyes. "And you know theres no curtain around the shower right? Why did you come so early?" I asked while she literally pulled me across the ground.

"Tristan! There's only twenty minutes until school starts! Did you set your alarm clock wrong?" I groaned. Why am I so dumb? " And I don't care if I see you naked. Now hurry up and shower!"

Slowly, I got up from the ground and walked toward my duffel bag to grab some clothes. Black skinny jeans, and a black v-neck. Really fits my mood. I pulled out a bar of soap, and my one and only towel. I guess being homeless was kind of like camping. For me anyways. Since I had the chance to grab some stuff before I got thrown out. So yeah, I had a toothbrush, soap, a shower, and I bought toilet paper regularly. It wasn't this way before I lived here though. I shuttered just thinking about it. This was a luxury. Funny, right?

I undressed and took my shower while Shelly waited outside. 

"Hurry up Tristan! We're already late!" She yelled from behind the doors. I groaned and turned the water off. Quickly, I dried myself and threw on some clothes.

I stepped out the door, and pulled my ipod out. Shelly looked at me expectantly, and I handed her the other ear bud. We started walking, in no rush. If we're late, might as well be super late.
