Incase you haven't read the description, keep in mind i wrote this when i was damn 12. I started fixing it up a bit when i was 14 and there are 50 unpublished chapters that never got rewritten ever. I WILL NOT BE FINISHING THIS STORY AS IT IS HORRIBLE. I'm only adding in this note, even tho it's probably going to be skipped over, because I'm very embarrassed by this story and don't want to be known for it. However, you can still read it if you want.

I can explain the plot to those of you who want to know, as it will never be published (this is not a love story).

Keith's P.O.V.

I plopped down face-first onto my mattress, muffling the loud, deep groan that I forced past my lips. I was not looking forward to moving to a new school in a dusty, musty rural town in Nebraska.

Sure, I was moving from a much more isolated place sort of in the middle of nowhere in the state of Texas. I suppose I shouldn't be complaining as much about my living situation seeing as which I'm the whole reason we had to move all the way up here in the first place.

I'm sort of nervous about starting at a new school. I'm not one to normally get nervous about these sorts of things. Maybe it's just my mind telling me not to do anything to get kicked out of another school? I just don't want to disappoint my dad and risk getting sent back into the foster system.
I shouldn't think like that. My dad is amazing and wouldn't do anything like that. Especially after spending all that money on just adopting me alone. He's been looking after me for five years as my foster father before he adopted me two months ago.

My father, Takashi, has basically been nagging me to make friends all week. He says this is a "fresh start" and that it should be easier to make new friends. I don't know why he thinks that. It seems much more difficult to befriend people in a completely new environment. At least nobody should know about my "reputation" around here.

What's even the point in friendships anyway? It's not like I need someone to do things with me that I would much rather do solo. I don't need to go out and spend my time just talking and doing unnecessary things with people when I could be taking care of things far more important, like finishing my homework or something. I have a hard time actually seeing myself willingly work on that stuff though. I don't have enough motivation for that shit.

I'm very bad at picking up social queues. I can't even tell the difference between someone being nice or rude most of the time. I'm not very keen on meeting people anyway. I'm not a fan of human interaction or "friendships." It's all just a huge waste of time.

Wednesday

My annoying alarm clock blaring at six in the morning had just woke me up. I hate hearing that stupid sound in the mornings. It's getting old.
Why can't school start at a more reasonable time? Teenagers need a lot of sleep and the vast majority of us can't get to sleep until much later. And teacher's complain when students zone out, fall asleep etc.

I forced myself to get out of bed and staggered to the bathroom. I did my business in the toilet, skip a few details you do not need to know about, hung a towel up next to the shower and stripped my clothes off before stepping inside it. I turned the nob near the middle of the hot side and waited for the water to heat up. I really wished I had waited for the water to heat up before hand.

There's one thing I miss about my old house, the water heats up much, much quicker.

It only took me about five minutes to finish my shower. After drying my previously wet body, I threw my towel onto my head and sort of ruffled it around a bit. I hung the towel up and got dressed into the clothes I brought into the bathroom with me. I wiped the condensation off of a small portion of the mirror, but it just fogged back up again. I sighed and took my toothbrush and toothpaste to my bedroom with me.
