Summer Time! //Teen Prinxiety AU//

Chapter 1: Hell Bus

TW: Depression, Anxiety, past abuse, past self harm, swearing

Summer Break..

A time for video games, anime, and taking that much needed break from school.

Unless your me.

"Virgil get ready your bus is gonna be here soon!" My mom came in my room. I groaned. For 3 weeks my mom was dragging me to a summer camp. I wasn't excited. I hate the outdoors. The sun is too bright, being hot sucks, being cold sucks, bugs suck. I hate mostly everything about it. But my mom says I'm way too pale and in desperate need of physical strength.

So I reluctantly got out of bed and find something. I grab some black jeans and an old panic at the disco hoodie with the sleeves rolled up. I put bracelets on my left arm and nothing on my right so I can draw on it. I have quite the collection of bracelets. Blink 182, MCR, FOB, TOP, P!ATD, Harry Potter, Stranger Things, Yuri on Ice, spiked ones, some black ones I weaved myself, Ying and Yang ones, chains, pentagrams, some marvel ones, musicals, LGBTQ+, and one of my favorites 'wrists are for bracelets not cutting'. I wear it to remind myself to stop. I've been pretty good lately.

Next I go into the bathroom and brush my teeth, brush my black and purple mess so its covering one eye. I put on my eyeliner and piercings and look at myself in the mirror.

Good enough.

I sighed, grabbing my duffel bag and backpack I packed and put on my old pair of beat up Converse. I went down stairs and was greeted by my mom giving me a big hug and kissing my cheek.

"I hope you have fun! I packed you some snacks for the trip!... and it doubles as a barf bag" She joked, handing me a paper bag.

"Mom!" I blushed. She knows I get car anxiety and sickness.

"I'm kidding! But also kinda not.. Use it if you have to" Mom ruffled my hair. I sighed and chuckled.

"Thanks mom. I'll see you in a couple weeks. Love ya mama" I said walking towards the door.

"Love you baby try to have fun and if you need anything call me" She blew me a kiss.

"Ok later ma" I said closing the door and walking outside to the curb. Soon a big yellow bus came riding up to my house. The thing was painted with flowers, butterflies, trees and other nature stuff. It was pretty cool. But the obvious thing was the 'Camp Midnight Sun' written in big black letters. Camp had tents and a fire in the word. Midnight had a galaxy and sun had yellow highlights. I hope I get to paint on it.

Then I was interrupted by the doors swinging open. I heaved myself on the bus and looked out on the sea if rowdy 13-15 year old boys. Some were yelling, others were horse playing, even a football passed by me. So somehow everyone started to notice that I got on.

My small emo ass in all black in a sea of bright sports clothes, polo shirts, or supreme merch. I swallowed and shuffled to the back and sat in an empty spot right next to the window. I heard whispering and laughing making me hug my legs. I put my bags next to me telling the other kids to fuck off. I took out a line art marker and started to doodle on my hand.

I was always happy with the result. So aesthetically pleasing and calming to look at when I'm stressed.

"Dude he looks gay" One muttered laughing.
