So here I sat, feeling
sorry for my mother, and more importantly, myself. I
couldn’t believe I was such a
b●tch. How could I possibly hurt her like that?
How could I ever do tha to her?
Oh yeah.
She ruined my life – she ruined me. She ruined
Nolan. She ruined Cooper. She ruined everything
I’ve ever loved. I hated her
guts.

“Drew,” my mother said,
gently shaking me awake. “It’s the first
day of school.”
“Five more minutes,” I
groaned.
“You say that every three minutes,”
she said.
“Well, you obviously don’t listen if
you’re coming in every three minutes,” I
groaned and pulled the pillow over my
head.
Yes, this
is a typical morning in the Gilmore household.
Cooper’s already wide-awake, wearing his navy
school sweatshirt and sweatpants. Nolan’s
eating his breakfast – quiet as always. And me?
Yeah, I’m fighting for those couple extra
minutes of sleeping, seeing as I didn’t sleep
at all the night before.
No,
I’m not an insomniac, but I do have
trouble sleeping usually. I don’t know why
– my brain hates shutting off. It just thinks
and thinks, driving me nuts.
“If
you don’t get up, I’m gonna call up that
Colton boy and tell him how much you blushed when I
brought him up,” she said.
I flew
up. “You wouldn’t
dare.”
She just
smirked and left the room, closing the
door.
“Mom!” I screamed.
I
reluctantly got up and got changed, reaching for my
bag. I was about to leave, when I saw myself in the
mirror. I quickly grabbed my makeup bag. Today
wasn’t a natural day. In fact, no day was. I
couldn’t do it. My friends could, but I sure as
hell couldn’t.

Along
with the typical everything else here in Santa
Barbara, California, it was a typical say in
September. It was about 70°
Fahrenheit, and I wore some simple shorts and a
t-shirt. I had nothing to dress up for, really.
It’s not like I had any real friends anymore
– they all either ditched me or were pretending
to be my friend because they felt bad. I can’t
blame them, though. I guess I have a lot of
baggage.
“Hey,
Drew,” said a voice.
I turned at the sound
of my name. No one ever talked to me besides
to make fun of me or ask a homework question. I saw
Colton running my way and my heart started to beat
fast. What was going on? What was making me so
nervous?
