[Ryan]
I rushed out of the house, not even bothering with breakfast. It was my first day at a new school, two months into the school year; great. And I was going to be late; even better. My alarm had decided that this morning was a good time to stop working. I woke up 20 minutes ago. I only had time to shove on a grey v-neck t-shirt, denim jeans and my shoes before brushing my hair and spiking it into a fauxhawk kinda thing and left. My father was still passed out on the couch, the stench of alcohol still present. I walked by as quietly as I could manage, trying not to wake him.
It only took my 15 minutes to get there. The bell was ringing just as I walked through the front doors. I went to my home room and took a seat. Four girls entered the room, eyes immediately drawn to me. They whispered to each other briefly before one walked over to me. "Hey, I'm Tayla." She spoke in a high-pitched, almost squeaky, voice. "Ryan." I replied."You new?" She asked, twirling a strand of her brown-blonde hair around her finger. "Obviously." She seemed a little taken back by my comment.
"Take your seats please." said the old, balding teacher boredly as he entered the room. "C'mon Tay." spoke a brunette girl. She walked away from me, flipping her hair in my direction. In all honesty, she didn't interest me. Girls in general didn't, actually. Yup, that's right; I'm gay. Loud and proud, baby. The final bell rang as a boy rushed into the classroom and to the desk in front of mine. "Mr Urie, are you going to be late every day?" The teacher asked, staring at him. "No sir; sorry."
Have you ever had everything go in slow motion? Your heart skip a beat? Only seeing that one person in a full room? Me either. But I imagine that if this was a movie, that'd would've happened. After the roll was called, the teacher just let the class do whatever. People got out of their seats the volume increasing dramatically. That Tayla chick walked over to the guy in front of me, sat on his lap and kissed his cheek. Of course; the one guy to have possibly captured my interest, and he's as straight as a ruler. Perfect.
