The Drums of the City Rain

Chapter 1

I sat awake, staring mindlessly into the screen of my laptop, doing nothing but wasting my time on the internet. The volume of my music was turned up to a very unhealthy level as it blasted through my earbuds and into my ears. I was listening to Gerard Way, my favorite artist. I loved his music. He was my idol. A quick glance at my alarm clock had told my that it was 3 am. I sighed. It was a school night. I turned off my laptop before setting it beside my bed. I curled up in my covers and drifted off to sleep.



BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!
It was time to get up. I groaned. I slithered out of bed to head for the shower. I stopped and looked in my mirror. Well shit. I had bags under my eyes. The dark circles had made me appear as if I was a vampire. I left my room for the bathroom, and hopped into the shower. The warm water felt amazing on my tired back. When finished with my shower, I headed back into my room. I took out the first outfit I could find and slipped it on. As I went to put on my shoe, I could only find one. I spent nearly twenty minutes looking for the other one. I turned my attention to the clock. Damn it! It was almost eight thirty. I was going to be late.
I ran outside and slammed the door behind me, going as fast as humanly possible to reach my bus. The bus was ready to leave just as I had made it to the bus stop. The bus driver gave me a scornful look, while I returned a sheepish smile. I climbed aboard and attempted to catch my breath as I looked for a seat. I sat in one of the few empty ones and stared out the window as the bus started up again. I had tried my best to ignore the annoying conversations of the people I hated. Then again, I hated a lot of people, to I had a lot of ignoring to do. Thank god it was almost the end of the school year. I slipped in my headphones and continued to listen to my music on full blast.
I stood up just as the bus had pulled into the school. I was eager to get this day over with. At least it was a Friday. I ran out the door and headed for the school. I made my way through the front doors and headed straight for my first period. I didn't feel like eating breakfast. Just as I was a few feet away from my first class, the bell rang. Perfect timing. I had math. I sat and daydreamed while the teacher was giving us a lecture. He was basically background noise. I didn't hear a thing he was saying, but it didn't matter because I could really care less.
"Mr. Iero," he scolded. "I expect you to pay attention in my class. Daydreaming is for when you get home."
I nodded, but still continued to ignore him. Eventually, the bell decided to ring after what seemed like an eternity. The rest of the school day was basically the same. The final bell eventually rang, so I got to go home. Thank god. I crammed all of my papers into my bag and ran out of there. Some teacher yelled at me for running in the halls, but I didn't care. All I really cared about in that moment was getting home. I made it out of the front doors and climbed aboard the bus. I sighed as I sat down. The bus ride seemed to drag on forever, but I finally made it home. I headed inside and went back into my room. Well, I made it through another day.
