The boy who wanted to live - Lams

Alexander had never seen the world other than the one he could see. He'd never left his house since he was two. It was him, his mom, and his nurse, Lafayette. You see Alex had a very rare disease which he called bubble disease because he couldnt leave his house or you know he'd die, that is not the actual name for his disease but he liked that better. He'd fallen into a routine nothing could change it...or so he thought.
That was until they moved in. He watched them from his window, a perfectly looking nuclear family. The brother was the one who caught Alex's attention is pressed his hands to the glass of his window and leaned a bit closer to get a better view, the boy wore all black, black t-shirt,black pants,black shoes, he head his poofy hair pulled into a ponytail and a very large amount of freckles adorned his face and arms, they reminded alex of the stars at night. Then the sister who looked around 10 or so maybe younger she seemed like a daddys little girl from first glance. Alex's eyes made their way over to the mom and dad, the father seemed angry and like a brute whereas the mother looked overly kind.
Alex looked back at the boy only to notice he was staring back at him which made alex turn a vibrant pink. He watched the boy scoff and look away before hearing his father call him over to help bring in boxes, the boy looked at alex once more before jogging over to his dad,
Something Alexander learned as he watched them move their stuff into the house was that the dad never called the boy who he learned was named john, by that name he always called him Jack something Alex pondered about for quite some time. He wanted to be close to the boy but that wouldn't happen without taking big risks.
