Maybe Some Day I'll Survive [Ferard]

1/8 Day 12

Dear Journal,

I wish I could tell Mikey, and see if he'd understand.

But maybe it's for the best that he doesn't. Maybe I really am insane. I don't know.

Today started like the past few days have,

------------------------------------

I groan as there's a knock on my door.

"Let yourself in Mikey".

My brother opens the door and I sit up slowly.

"How'd you know it was me Gee?"

Oh, wait, he hasn't lived this day 12 times.

"Wild guess, what's up bro?"

"Well, your alarm didn't go off, so we need to be at school in like, 5 minuets." He tells me calmly.

The first few times I was angry with Mikey, then at my alarm clock, then at the world, but today I just don't care.

"Leave without me Mikey, I'm gonna leave soon, but you'll be late if you wait for me."

This is the truth, because it happened yesterday.

"Okay Gee, but hurry, I don't like being at school by myself."

'But maybe you won't get teased today if you're by yourself ' I think to myself as he walks out of my room.

I slowly mosey over to my dresser, out of which magically appear my leather pants.

Rawr.

Fierce Gee is fierce.

I then stumble to my closet and almost fall into it. Ew.

I yank my 'Call Me Tomorrow, Today Makes You Look Desperate." T-shirt off of it's hanger and pull it over my red hair.

My phone dings and I pull it out of my back pocket as make my way into the bathroom to fix my hair.

1 Message From Mikeysaur:

"Gee, hurry up I'm like, halfway there already!!"

I ignore the text, knowing that if it's important, I'll find out tomorrow. I feel no need to rush.

On second thought...

To Mikeysaur:

"You can't rush perfection."

I smile at the thought of my brother finding me even the least bit funny today as I finish fixing my hair and stride towards the door, pulling my backpack over my shoulder when I pass it's resting place in my doorframe.

I'm walking down the street when I hear a sound I thought I could avoid today.

"HEY FAGGOT."

Just great.

"HELLO ASSHOLE." I call back as the gray convertible drives up blaring some obnoxious song about drugs and love.

"Where's your gay little brother today red?"

"I dunno, ask your mom." I reply sarcastically.

"Watch it red. You don't wanna get in trouble for being a bully, do you?"

I glare at Nick until he realizes that I have already reached the 'leave me alone or die' phase if today.

I get a message from Mikey once Nick is gone.

"Haha, sure Gee, THAT's what you are."

I smile, but wonder, what else is going to change today?
