Dear Charlie,
I can't imagine what it must have taken to write me this letter, though I appreciate the sentiment behind it. Not many people write me letters. They usually call or knock on my door. By knock I mean crack my door, you know, what friends do when they're crazy and probably drunk. I hope you won't mind that I censor names myself. If I didn't know any better, I'd think I was your personal listening ear. Not that I mind. I like listening, or, well reading. Hope I'm not babbling here.
I'm sorry to hear about the loss of your friend. There's really no good way to talk about that is there? I probably didn't know Michael, that year was a bit of a long mess for me. My teachers did the same thing to one of my friends that yours are doing to you right now. They felt awful sorry for them, really. It made them angrier than anything, though, unlike you, my friend James punched the guidance counselor. Got a nice suspension out of it too. Adults, huh? They feel so distant from the rest of us, and they know it too.
Yeah, you're right. I don't have many urges to sleep with girls. It's kinda hard to, in this day and age. They're all somewhere on a spectrum of nice and crazy just like us and people think that similarity is kind of gross. I don't think you're one of those people, are you? After all, boys and girls are boys and girls and we're all somewhere in the stars one way or another.
That was poetic of me. Don't make me sound like my old man too much, okay Charlie?
These letters are going unsent anyway. My family likes me, even though I don't do what they want. Even though I have the ability to, I just won't. I know that doesn't make sense to you. It doesn't to me either.
I'm sorry, I'd write more, but I have summer chemistry homework to wrap up. I hate having to be successful sometimes.
Forever yours,
Zach
A/N: Hi! So this is a school assignment (gotta love college, letting you write fanfiction.) So I'm posting it here. It should be finished fairly quickly. It's just easier to post it letter by letter. Can you guys figure out what the underlying theme is? Well, if not that's cool! Please enjoy and leave some words below!
