You know that kid that sits in the back of the class and doodles on the side of their papers until it's time to leave and then they rush off? Well that's me.

Hi! My names Charlie Edwards. It's my second year of college and I just moved in with my aunt and uncle to a nowhere town with an amazing school.

I wouldn't call myself the most attractive guy, I have nerdy glasses and my hair falls weird, along with I always wear baggy pants with longer-then-my-arm hoodies.

Anyways, enough with crushing my already nonexistent confidence. I moved here because my best friend is also attending here, Theo, he doesn't really need to since he is going to take over a family business when he gets out of school.
He said he came for me even though I know it's because he wants to experience college too

I walked into my townhouse that I would be stay in with my aunt and uncle.

My aunt was off at her shop and my uncle was probably out working too at this time. Oh well, at least I get to decorate.

I found my way to the room they had a sign on saying 'your room, munchkin'. I smiled at the nickname my aunt called me

Sitting down, I placed my things down and sighed. "Guess I should fix this place up all spiffy" I smiled and got up, throwing my hoodie to the side. "I'm going to be so tired after this" I groaned and started on making my bed

~.:~:.~

I plopped down on the neat sheets that were probably wrinkled now from my body smashing into them. "I hated that" I whined and turned onto my stomach, starting to get comfortable

Just as my eyes were starting to shut so I could go to the land of dreams my phone rang directly into my ear and my body jumped up. "What the hell!"

I looked at the ID and it read Theodore with a cute picture I had taken of him before,

"Hey! Are you here yet? I wanna show you around and maybe go for some food man"

I  smiled and nodded, even if he couldn't see me. "Yea, I just got done with my room"

"Oh, okay. Well do you want to go eat or want me to come over and whip up something absolutely amazing"

"You coming over would be great, I'm not sure if my legs work anymore" I poked at my limp noodles I called legs

"Great! I'll be over soon"

Call ended

I got up from the bed and went to go clean up a bit even though it was already pretty clean. I walked over to the kitchen and saw a note.

Hey munchkin! I heard you in the room and thought I could bother you real quick.
I have some orders in the fridge that need to go to the address below, if you could take them that would be great. Thanks love! See you tonight
Love, your favorite aunt

I smiled down at the note and walked over to the fridge, seeing a couple cakes and little boxes of food my aunt served at the shop. "I guess it won't hurt to deliver them real quick"

I slipped on my jacket and shoes and went out to the delivery bike, driving to said location

"This place isn't shady at all" I muttered sarcastically and walked into the what looked like abandoned warehouse. "Hello? Anyone here?" I yelled out and almost dropped everything from the sudden stomp on the ground

"Right here, runt" he growled at me and walked over, taking a container of cake from my hands. He opened it and took a bite. "This is horrible". I took a step back and scoffed, "yea, whatever. Just give me what you owe and I'll leave" I stated proudly. My aunts sweets were amazing.

"I'm not paying for this! It's gross and I'm probably going to get sick from just putting it near my mouth" he hissed and threw the food at the ground. I put the bags down and pushed him, "what the hell is wrong with you, you entitled snob!" I yelled venomously

"Don't touch me short ass" he yelled back and grabbed one of the boxes, throwing it at me this time. I gasped as it hit me then fell to the ground. I felt tears pinch my eyes from frustration and I turned to leave. He went to grab my shoulder and I ran away.

I must have taken a wrong turn because I was in an ally way and two much taller men were approaching me. "What's wrong sweetheart? Why you all dirty" they laughed, "did your boyfriend break up with you?" They continued until someone else was behind them

He had curly hair and a sweet looking face, it was clear he was some type of Asian from his clear skin and cute eyes. "I would recommend you two do not touch him" he spoke every word clearly as he climbed the set of stairs

They turned to him and immediately walked off apologizing, I assume he had some history with them that made it so easy for him to tell them off

"They did have good questions though. Why are you so dirty?" He questioned and swiped off a piece of discarded food on my shoulder. I looked up at his face as he looked down at mine. I probably looked pathetic with stray tears on my face

"Don't cry" he started and walked to a near by wall, flipping himself up into and handstand. "When you want to cry, just do a handstand so the tears won't come out" he stated and I giggled softly. "Thanks.. uhm-" "Darren" he stood back up and walked over to me again

"My name is Darren."
