Is This Real Life? ~ Highschool AU

Chapter Five

~Patrick's POV~

---------at Patrick's house---------

"Mom!" I yell as I walk through the doors of my house.

"I'm in the kitchen sweetheart," she replies

I walk to the kitchen and see mom cooking dinner. It smells delicious.

"Hey honey, how was school?" She asked.

"It was nice."

"Did you make any new friends?"

"Um yeah I did actually, I made eight of them actually, well I mean, I'm not sure they all consider me a friend yet, but I consider them friends. I met Brendon, Mikey, Gerard, Ryan, Josh, Frank, Tyler and Pete."

"Wow that's more people then I thought you'd talk to."

"Are you saying I can't make friends?" I ask her jokingly

"No no sweetie it's just you didn't really talk to anyone in your old school, so did you meet anyone special?"

"Special? What do you mean?"

"I mean do you like any girls in your classes?"

Oh, yeah, my mother doesn't know that I'm gay. "Oh I uh, no," I say blushing.

Just before she could say anything else my phone went off. It was a message from Pete.

Hey 'Trick you home yet? <3 -Pete

"I have to go mom, I'll talk to you later!"

"But-"

I ran upstairs not listening to what my mother was saying. I got to my room and locked the door so my mom wouldn't bother me. I open my messages with Petey.

Yeah, I'm home. <3 -Patrick

YAY! I mean, that's good :) how are you? -Pete

I'm good. How are you? -Patrick

I'm great now that I'm talking to you princess ;) <3 -Pete

Princess? my god, you're such a flirt, Peter. -Patrick

Yeah I get that a lot ;) -Pete

I'm not surprised. -Patrick

Pete and I messaged each other for about twenty minutes about pretty much anything we could think of, until my mother called me down for dinner.

"Patrick dinner's ready!" I heard my mom call from downstairs.

Awe I have to go eat dinner, Pete, I'll talk to you later okay? :( -Patrick

Awe okay bye princess :( -Pete

Bye Petey. -Patrick

I shut my phone off and walked downstairs. I got into the kitchen and saw my mother and father sitting at the dinner table. I sit down with them.

"Hey mom, hey dad."

"Hey sweetie. Why'd you leave so fast earlier?"

"Oh one of my friends messaged me."

"You have friends?" My father says sounding surprised.

"Dad! That's mean of you to say," I say, offended.

"No Patrick, I meant it's your first day I didn't think that you'd make friends the first day," he says like he's stating the obvious.

"Oh, okay, yeah."

---------a couple hours after dinner---------

I was laying in bed listening to music when my phone went off. I got a new message.

Heyyyy -Unknown

Um hi. Who's this? -Patrick

Oh oops it's Brendon. This is Patrick right? -Brendon

Oh okay. Yeah it's Patrick but how'd you get my number? -Patrick

Pete gave it to me! -Brendon

Of course Pete gave it to him. Pete was the only one who knew my number.

Oh, okay. - Patrick

Soooo how are you? -Brendon

I'm good! How are you? -Patrick

Good, so guess what! -Brendon

What? -Patrick

Pete is sitting next to me. I also lied to you he didn't give me your number, I stole his phone. -Brendon

Oh, okay? Tell Pete I said hi. -Patrick

Okay I will -Brendon

Okay, but I have to sleep now, I'll talk to you tomorrow, okay? Tell Pete I said goodnight. -Patrick

Awe okay goodnight. Pete said goodnight too -Brendon

It was currently 10:00 at night and I was really tired. Plus I have to go to sleep early to go to school tomorrow.

Just before I fell asleep I got another text message, but this time from Pete.

Goodnight Princess <3 -Pete

Goodnight Prince. <3 -Patrick
