I always sit by my window that faces the sunset. Sometimes I sit on the windowsill and dangle my feet outside feeling the cold breeze against my bare feet. It's a lonely warmth, although it feels nice. There's a house next to me, but it's further back, and it doesn't block my window. No one lived there for years. My window is a little busted so It's hard to open at some times. The screeching of the frame when it opens is nostalgic. My house is two-story and it makes the view so beautiful up high. I always see the same children playing on the street or on the sidewalk. They live about 3 houses down and they're always outside. I could hear faint sounds of laughter from my window. Cars would pass from time to time down the street. I'd sometimes write notes and turn them into paper airplanes and throw them out the window. I'd watch them soar for a few minutes until they fade into the distance. I wonder if anyone finds them. Maybe some are still out there. I don't write anything complex. I would either write compliments or inspirational quotes I found online. I hope whoever finds them, It would put a smile on their face. It's something I like to do, just for fun. I'm not really all that special. I'm just a normal 14-year-old boy. I do normal 14-year-old boy things. I live in a normal neighborhood, and go to a normal school. I'm a little quiet around people, but there's one person that I would be able to act completely insane in front of, and that's Six. She lives next door to me on the other side of my house. Not the one by my window. I've known her since I was in elementary. My dad told me she moved in early November of 2009, just when 1st grade started. We've been best friends ever since. She's not one to play with either cuz she's strong as hell. One punch in the arm could leave you sore for a week. She's way more energetic than me. Most of my friends are. My whole friend group, including me all have numbers for names. It's a little strange but we roll with it. I'm the only one with Initials though. Sometimes people call me RK. My parents never told me my real name. I don't like mentioning my parents. Especially my mom. Let's just say she doesn't exactly want me around. She never has. I'm pretty sure she hates me. I know my dad loves me, but he's never home to know what she does. I think I should get into that later. She's not even home right now, I'm home alone. I'm mostly home alone. She's always out, and my dad's always working. That's mostly the time where I sit by my window. Late at night, I see the moon too. But it would have to be at like two in the morning because it's mostly on the other side of my house before it comes to my side. I have another window, but It just faces my street, and nothing exciting happens over there. I've thought about putting some decorations outside the window, like a wind chime or a few little plants by the edge. Since I'm always hanging out by my window, I figured It might be a good idea. I'm not that interesting. You'd probably get bored from being my friend but, I can't say that for everyone because I do have friends even though I have no idea how they put up with me. I'm grateful for people like my friends. If it weren't for them I'd probably taking long baths and stuff lonely people do. My friends help me get through hard times and we all help each other. That's what friends are supposed to do, and everyone's life has static, even the lives of 14-year-old boys. My name is Seven. Trouble is my middle name, and for some reason, I'm always getting into it.
