The Jones Brothers
May 6th, 2008
Nick looked over at his clock on the side of his bed. The time was 11:00 a.m., he decided this was a good time to get out of bed. He went to get ready for the Home-school teacher to arrive at 12. At the same time both his brothers; Joe and Kevin did the exact same thing. Each of them thought; the exact same thing every morning. They each went into the dining room to find their parents sitting there and the personal waiter setting down their food. "Thanks dude" Joe told him as he sat down. The waiter looked at him weirdly before setting Nick's food down. "Pancakes Awesome! Thanks Bobby!" Nick said as he started to eat. The waiter set Kevin's food down last. Kevin looked at his brothers and then looked at the waiter, "Thanks, Bob" He said before beginning to eat.
"Ok so Mom and dad, we were talking last night, and we were wondering if we could go to a normal school when school reopens?" Kevin asked, referring to his brothers and himself. "Now, why would you want to do such a stupid thing?" Their dad asked. "Because, we wanna get a detention when we start a food fight, not just a "Don't do it again' and 'Charles, take care of this mess please'" Joe mocked his mom perfectly. His brothers and his father laughed at the accuracy of his mother's tone in his voice. Mrs. Jones gave each of them a look that shut them up quickly.
"I'm sorry, but we are not going to send you to a normal school, you can get the best education right here at home." Mrs. Jones said. "Fine" each boy mumbled. This had been their seventh try, they were close to quitting. The teacher walked in and each boy went to the learning room. When they were finished, they went into the room they usually hung out in to talk. "I can't believe she said no……again." Nick said as soon as they closed the door. "I know, can't they do this one thing for us?" Joe asked sitting down on a couch. "This is so unfair, how are we ever gonna have real friends?" Kevin asked sitting down on a separate couch. Nick sat down and stared off into space. "Well since we have nothing better to do, let's write a song." Nick said grabbing his guitar. "That's a next thing; they won't even let us, record one of our songs." Kevin said getting his guitar as well. "Oh well, let's just write and forget." Joe said getting a pen and paper. They sat there and wrote "Kids of the future". They sat there writing until they fell asleep.

I woke up, got ready and walked outside. A group of boys ran past me with some stuff in their hands. They probably robbed a store or something. That would be normal. I walked around the corner to my school. Two kids were smoking on the front steps, that's normal as well. It isn't like the teachers are gonna say anything. I walked through the halls of the school, giving people high fives as I walked by. I don't know why I'm going to class early. I could skip the whole semester and still graduate top of my class. I sat down in my seat and waited for the teacher. I pulled a book out of my bag. The book was just getting good, when somebody walked in. I quickly put it in my bag and looked up. Luckily they didn't see me. I can't let these people know I read. I can't let them know I can actually read a big book at all.
After school I walked home quickly, trying to avoid getting mugged or something. I really couldn't afford that right now. I live with my cousin and he still wasn't home yet. Well his school isn't out yet. He goes to a private school, somewhere on the good side of town so it takes him a while to get home. The only person that knows that Zac even lives down here is, Vanessa; his girlfriend. He shouldn't worry about what other people think. He should just be happy he has parents who pay for him to go there. Even if they're never home. Ever since last year I've been living with Zac. Im sixteen and He's two years older than me so I'm not here illegally or anything like that.
I figured he had a date with Vanessa so I just went to my room and went to sleep.
