All I Want Is Nothing

I woke up with a jump, My alarm screaming next to me. Lazily I flopped my fingers down on the small button to make it shut up. Sitting up with a groan I looked around my room. The sun peaking through my dark curtains. Stretching and yawning I swung my legs over the side of the bed and reluctantly stood up. It was officially here. My last first day of school.

"Gerard, Mikey, You better be getting ready!" My mother shouted from down the hall. Her tone laced with anger "I am, Mama!" Mikey called back, I, however, didn't answer. I was obviously getting ready, I didn't feel like sticking around for my father's anger drunken outbursts. Mother can deal with that, Mikey and I, on the other hand, I wouldn't allow it... In fact, when it comes down to it, I'd let myself get hurt before I ever thought about letting him place a hand on Mikey. Fuck that. "Gerard, DId you hear me?" Her shrill voice came again... I opened my mouth quick to answer, in fear of my father hearing but I was too late.

"Answer your mother, Scum" He spat viciously "I heard you, mother!" I replied bitterly, Earning a slap from my father "Lose the tone." He grouched before walking out of my room.
Sighing to myself I stood up and got dressed, again not worrying about my hair. Who the hell cares anyway. Bob and Ray seemed to not mind the constant straggly-ness. So.

Once done, I walked out of my room and over to Mikey's "You ready yet?" I called through his closed door "Just about! One sec" I laughed to myself and stepped away as I heard him talking to himself, I heard talking from the kitchen between my parents and listened in "If he is I'll beat him like the sin he is and kick the faggot out of the fucking house" I hear my father spit viciously "He better not be, then" My mother commented "He's already a disgrace, He better not rub off on Mikey. I won't have two faggots" I furrowed my eyebrows. I Was not gay I thought to myself... No way in hell. Not because I thought it was a sin... I'm completely okay with gay people. It was because I at least wanted to have a family.

"Mikey!" I called, just before the door opened "Okay! Ready!" He smiled happily. I nodded, leading him towards my car "Oh god you're not going to kill us right?" He joked "Oh yes Mikey. We're gonna die as soon as we sit down" I rolled my eyes "Oh no, Well, in that case, I love you big brother" He laughed "I love you too, Little brother" I replied.

Pulling up to the school I looked at him seriously "If anyone bothers you. You let me know." He laughed lightly "No offense, Gee, But can you handle them? I mean don't they pick on you too?" he said sadly... He was right, Were both defenseless. I shook my head "Keep your head down, And ignore everyone?" He laughed at that "Gotchya" he nodded, Causing me to smile.

We got out of the car and he headed to the gym for his orientation and I headed for the foyer to see where my homeroom would be. I scanned through all the W's until I came across my name.

Way-Gerard: 203- Mr.Winchester; I rolled my eyes at that, He was so uptight, angry all the time. Sighing I made my way towards the class, Trying so hard to avoid everyone. Praying none of them would bother me... But with no such luck. As I was pushed into a set of lockers "You haven't killed yourself yet? Faggot?" Troy, jeered, I ignored his comment and attempted to stand up, Only to be pushed down again "Leave me alone" I mumbled "What was that? I couldn't hear you" Jake, Troy's friend laughed, I knew there was no point in repeating myself, as they wouldn't listen and I'd probably stutter. So I just stayed silent on my hands and knees. Praying they would go away. I heard one of the two scoff before I was kicked in the gut "Pathetic." Troy growled before they both walked away; I silently thanked God. Then cursed him when the late bell rang.

"Ah, Mr.Way. Late on the first day, I see" Mr. Winchester commented, "Sorry sir." I mumbled, heading to the back of the class, noticing a new person sitting closer to the front, but not paying much attention to them. "Well, let's see if you can be on time for detention, Yeah? After school?" I sighed at his words "Okay." I replied. Not wanting to be kicked out of class before I even started. I slumped down in the chair and put my headphones in, to my relief Bob and Ray both walked in, Late as well. Mr. Winchester sighed heavily "Looks like you Mr.Toro, And you, Mr.Bryar will be joining Mr.Way in detention after school today as well." His smile was laced with evil, and Bob and Ray rolled their eyes "Yes, Sir" They said in unison, before sitting down in front of me, turning around to engage conversation.

"So, This is our last year of high school, What a relief eh?" Ray said excitedly "Would be better if I had've dropped out, Or the douchbags weren't here." I said quietly "Fuck them, they're just retarded" Bob snapped, Its fair to say non of us are too fond of them. "Don't make me give you all double detention" Mr.Winchester snapped "Sir, they were talking quietly!" A voice interjected One that I didn't realize. "Right. Mr.Iero, Looks like you're getting one too! Anybody else wants one? Speak now!" He crossed his arms and scanned the classroom. "Right, Good, Now let's get on with this class."

It was now lunch, I haven't seen that new kid since the first period, and I was convinced I had imagined him, so I just forgot about it. Until Ray brought it up; "Have you had that Frank kid in any more of your classes?" Ray asked as he sat down at our table in the courtyard, I quirked my eyebrow at him "Who??" His face fell "The new one, From literacy!"
I thought for a moment, then it clicked. So I didn't imagine him... Good. "No, Have you?" I asked and Ray nodded "He's in my maths class, I sit beside him. I think you two would get along perfectly. I invited him to our lunch table but he said he had to talk to the office about something and that hed see me in detention." I nodded and continued eating my chips.

The rest of the day went by boringly. I did have Frank in one other lesson, Gym, but he sat on the other side of the class. So that wasnt very useful. I was both excited, and dreadding detention later.

Notes

Detention will be the next chapter, and we will fully meet frank!
Have a good Day/Night
