Couldn't Be More Different (Cashton/Muke)

Chapter 1

Ashton's p.o.v

Right now it was 11:40 I was miserable. I was in math class with Ms.Clarke. I fucking hate math and Ms.Clarke. We do not get along at all. That is my dads fault though. You see my dad is the coach of the football, basketball and volleyball team at this school. Ms.Clarke hates sports and my father. She thinks the school should spend less money on sport equipment and supply her with everything she wants in her classroom. They also dated when they were in high school so there's that. We were doing textbook work so I pulled out my phone from my pocket and hid it with my book. Just 10 more minutes now until lunch. When the bell rang I grabbed my backpack and made my way down to the cafeteria. I got my food and walked to my table. You could say I am pretty popular. I am the star quarterback of the football team. Well almost. My dad made the decision to have 2 quarterbacks on the team. This means I have to share that spot with none other then Luke Hemmings. I hate Luke Hemmings. He thinks he is so much better then everyone else but trust me he is not. Our families go way back. My dad coached Ben and Jack Hemmings. They are Luke's older brothers. Our dads got along great and hung out all of the time so our moms then thought it would be a great idea to force us to become friends. We were until I started taking sports more seriously. I mean with the state my grades are at the only way I will ever get anywhere is with a football scholarship. Anyway all of my friends consist of the jocks and cheerleaders. I don't know how many of them are actual friends or are just here because we have a reputation to uphold but it's whatever. We talked about the upcoming game next week. I could barely keep my eyes open. I have insomnia but my dad doesn't "believe" in insomnia so he won't take me to a doctor for it. I have tried talking to my mom about it but she cares more about my younger siblings. I lifted my head off the table and saw the last 2 seats at our table be taken by Luke and his boyfriend Ethan. They came out as gay and as a couple last year in grade 10. Mostly everyone at school was accepting because of their social status but I have seen what they do to people who are gay and it is not good. I am bisexual but I haven't told anyone. I just don't know who to trust with information like that. The only people who I know for sure that would accept me is my mom and dad. They have no problem with Luke so why would they care if I was bi? Lunch was ending soon so I threw out my garbage and headed to class with my friends.
