Adonis POV (Picture of him above)
After a long day at school I finally reached my house, damn I wish this was America so I could drive because I'm 16. Buses in London are mostly really dirty and disgusting. God, why did life have to be so hard?

Why does algebra exist?
Why are Shakespeare's plays still around?
Why? Just why!?

I groggily walked into my long drive and checked the exterior of my mum's sleek black Audi Q7, quickly checking that there weren't any marks or scratches on it. Yes, I love my cars-Audi's to be specific. Sue me.

I stepped into the porch, which was dangerously unlocked... as usual, and slipped off my shoes. It was my mum's biggest rule, no shoes allowed inside. With my eyes closed, I unlocked the main door and opened it... Brace for impact in 5..4..3..2...

"NISSYYYYYY!" and before I knew it I was tackled to the floor.
"I missed you!" My little sister, Ariana, squealed. She sat on my chest, her lively green eyes boring straight into my own dull ones. My eyes lost their spark years ago.
"Dear lord hermana, you knocked the breath out of me" I chuckled, "and I've only been gone a couple of hours for school."
Hermana means sister in Spanish by the way. Yes, I am Spanish. And I'm damn well proud of my culture. I'm also British. And I damn well love fish and chips.

Ariana looked at me blankly, she obviously didn't understand the phrase.
"Eh don't worry about it, just por favor, get off," I said while I picked her up practically effortlessly and sat her on the wooden floor next to where I was lying down. I sat up, pecked her on the cheek and ran upstairs while pulling off my tie which was definitely tied too tight. I loosened it just enough so that I could take the top button of my school shirt off. When I finally reached my room I shrugged off my ugly ass bottle green blazer and let it fall to the floor. Meh I'll pick it up tomorrow morning... when I have to put this shitty uniform back on.

Subconsciously, I ended up in front of my full length mirror. Inhaling a deep breath, I took off my glasses and ruffled my thickly gelled hair.

I blinked rapidly, the same way I do every day after school. I looked so... different.
Not the good type of different though, this different reminded me too much of my past and what an idiot I was back then.

I am no longer that boy.

The boy who flaunted how the name 'Adonis' suited his looks.
The boy who worked out so hard just to get abs to impress plastic teenage girls who he'd never see again.
The boy who lost his virginity because he wanted to seem 'cool', while fully understanding it was something he could never get back.
The boy who also took from many girls, their first kiss, first fuck and first love...
The boy who broke hearts and friendships like it was nothing, as simple as breaking a glass.

My blood boils every time I think of those days. I was only 15 for God's sake. What on Earth was I doing!?

Defeated by exhaustion and deep thought, I sighed and changed into a thin pair of grey joggers and a black tank top.
Even though the reason I got them was stupid, I kept the abs, I went to the gym regularly and worked out. It wasn't to impress girls though, it was for myself, I wanted to prove to myself that I was strong.

So along with the abs came the muscle on my arms. Which is why I never show them, I never wear a short sleeve shirt to school and I don't go swimming around people who aren't family. Don't ask, I just don't.
Not bothering to eat because I was too tired for it, I just went straight to bed.

Sleep engulfed me faster than usual, not that I was complaining.
