Ben: Dad, where is my shoes I got over the summer?

Meet Ben.....
Dark dark brown hair slided to the side
Boyish beard to be
A wide receiver on the football team at his high school, straight A student, I perfect boy....or so you thought

: Son, come get your meds

Ben has a bipolar disorder that he was diagnosed with the past summer

He has twin sisters who are just 12 years old and they each are cleared to not have it

Their mother had passed away when Ben was just a year old

His closest mother was his aunt, Aunt Yima

That is the nickname he gave her when he couldn't pronounce her real name, Yurma

Bipolar disorder isn't just that one secret he has.....

He has a crush on the quarterback of the football team

His name is Josh

Josh is tall, mixed skin, and has same type of wavy hair as Ben

He loves football, video games, and him and Ben are actually best friends

So Ben having a crush on him is really awkward

Ben: I'm coming *heads downstairs, grabs his meds, takes them*

Ben: I took them

Mr. Louis: Look...son....

Ben looks at his dad in the eyes

Mr. Louis: Don't let them get to you

That line is what his father says to him everyone day of school

Ben: I know, dad

His dad pats him on the back

Mr. Louis: Have a good day kiddo

Ben walks out the door and gets on his bike

Before Ben heads to school, he always goes to his cousins house to check on him

Him and his cousin, Lucas, had went out driving underage when they were 14 and got into an accident

Lucas was paralyzed

He couldn't go to school, he couldn't do anything out in public

He was homeschooled and from this day, he is still the same

Ben parks is bike on the curb and walks up to his cousin's house door

He rings the door bell

Few minutes later....

Lucas' mom answered the door

Lucas' mom: Lucas! Ben is here!

Ben: I can't stay long. I just wanna say hi and see how he is feeling

Lucas rolls up in a wheelchair

Lucas: Sup bro

Ben and Lucas did their special handshake

Ben: How are you

Lucas: Feeling awesome! Check this out

Lucas gets up from his wheelchair and walks over to the nearest cabinet

Ben: Your walking?

Lucas: Yeah cool right!

Ben: Awesome! I'll come back here after school and see you walk some more alright?

Lucas: Cool bro! See ya

Lucas shuts the door and Ben heads off to his first day of school
