"I am off to work Kyle", Mum said as she knocked on my door. "I am not back tonight so Penelope is in charge. I left her money for dinner. Your shirts are in the dryer. Get out of bed and do not be late for school." I heard the front door slamming moments later as I rolled over and went back to sleep.
"I am getting breakfast Kyle. Get up! The bus is in 15 minutes", Penelope yelled as she made her way downstairs.
15 minutes I thought. Might be enough time to deal with my morning wood. I started browsing porn on my phone and touching myself. Before I knew I heard Penelope yell again. "The bus is coming in two minutes. I am going outside."
Fuck. I'll have to finish after school. I ran to my wardrobe to get my clothes. I grabbed boxers and my trousers, and put them on. No shirts left. I slipped on my shoes and and grabbed my tie and jacket and rushed downstairs. Fuck, I better not miss the bus. I opened the dryer grabbed a shirt and hastily buttoned it in the hall way as I made my way to outside.
Shirts a bit tight. It must have shrunk in the dryer. I could see the bus coming up the road from the front garden. I turned up my collar to put on my tie and I noticed it was wrong. It had curved edges at the corner. Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit.This is Penny's shirt. The bus is coming. "Come on", Penny roared from the road. I turned around to face away from the kids gathered at the bus stop on the road. I put my tie on and my blazer. I turned the collar up to hide it as I best I could. It will have to do. I'll just avoid everyone today as best I can. I ran out to the bus and just caught it with the other kids. I quickly grabbed a seat alone and just stared out the window.

If someone spots it I will just pretend it does not matter and explain what happened. I will probably be hearing about this for weeks. God.
I took out my phone and took a picture of myself. It was obvious. Sigh
The bus arrived at school and everyone jumped up to get out. I let the crowd go and readied myself. I went straight to my first class and sat down. The students slowly started to file in. My friend James sat down beside me. Class started and Mr. Andrews our Maths teaching started explaining something on the board.
As class went by I was relieved. I would get through this.
"Why don't you take off your jacket? It's roasting today." Then James looked at me. I could see it in his eyes. He burst out laughing. "Shit. Shut up".
"James", Mr. Andrews snapped. "What's so funny that you need to disturb the class?"
"Ah." James glanced at me. "Nothing sir."
"Kyle are you wearing a girls shirt?" The whole classroom erupted. I was mortified.
"Ssh. Sssh. Kyle, go visit the counsellor Ms. Coulter. Go on. Go now." I grabbed my stuff and ran out the door. I could here the sniggering behind me. "Everyone back to work."
I walked down the hall to the counsellor's office. The situation was getting out of my control.
