I don't know if many know me here, but anyway, hello! First story here (kinda cause I posted one before I deleted it)! I wanted to begin with an angsty/sad one because I love angst and I was motivated to finally make a story lols. Sooo.. this might not be suitable for some people since this story has some triggering parts and because this ACTUALLY happens irl. So, please don't read this if you're triggered by things such as suicidal thoughts, violence, physical/mental abuse, etc.. Other than that, enjoy!
It was a cloudy day. The weather has been changing ever since summer was soon starting to end and so far it was sometimes hot, cold and rainy. Although, we can agree it's sometimes nice. This story begins with an 16 year old boy named Gil Gordon. A boy who's always clumsy, but tries his best. He was very famous along with his friends. The ones he's more closer to is Molly. They both have been friends ever since the first day of pre-school. Goby is also one of his closest friends as well. They both had such a great bond with each other back in their childhood days. They would always play, make up random stories, and so much more! But after a while, Gil was forced to move far away due to his mother not being able to fix her papers. He knew she was trying so hard, of course it's not easy for a single mother having to do all the work without help from anyone. Especially his dad.. Gil was never close with his father at all. They would always argue and his father would physically abuse his mother for absolutely no reason. Thankfully, they both were able to get away from him. Now, after Gil just turned 16, he's been having more letters from fans. It wasn't easy for him, really. He doesn't like being the 'popular' one at all, but he knew he couldn't do anything to stop the fans from loving him. Fans will always be fans, but all Gil was hoping for is to see his friends again someday and to grow up with a good future.
"Gil!" The mother called, "Time to wake up, hon! I don't want you to be late!" "Ugh.." He groaned, "Coming."
As he was getting ready for the day, he gets a phone call from one of his friends. "Hello?" "Hey, Gil!" Goby answered. "Goby!" He exclaimed. "It's been so long since we've talked!" "Yeah, it has! Just wanted to check up on ya! How's everything going for you in Big Bubble City?" "Good, just wish I could see you guys again." He replied. "Don't worry, it'll happen someday. We just gotta wait!" He said with a smile. "Well, I have to go now. Nonny's waiting for me! Say hello to your mom for me!" "Of course! Tell Nonny I said hi!" "Catch you later, Gil!" "See ya!"
After Gil hung up the phone, he knew he had to hurry. The school is very strict about students being late and if Gil came 2 minutes late, straight to the principal's office he goes. "Who were you talking to, hon?" The mother asked. "It was Goby! He says Hi." The young teen smiled. "Oh, really? I hope he's doing good!" "Yep, he is." Gil then sighed sadly knowing how much memories he made with his friends in BubbleTucky. It was sad to see that he had to move away from his home, but he knows he had no choice. The mother noticed and started looking back at the road. "Hey," she started, "I've been thinking..do you want to visit BubbleTucky?"
Gil then knew where this was going. He felt bad because he didn't want his mom to feel guilty about the moving or paperwork or even feeling like a bad mother. He nodded. "Well, we could visit there! I mean, I also have friends there I want to see again!" "Mom, you know you don't have to do this because I'm upset.." Gil replied. "I'm not, She hesitated. "I really want to visit BubbleTucky as well, Gil! I also lived there before I had you and that place has given me so much memories I still kept. And in case you didn't know, I was a friend to each of your friends' parents!"
"Really?" "Mhm! We would always play, make up stories, and have fun adventures! I promise you, Gil, once I get those papers fixed, we'll be back home in no time!"
Hearing this made the blue-haired male smile. As much as he wanted to tell his mother that she doesn't need to do everything to make him smile, he was happy to hear that he'll be able to see his friends again someday. "Here we are!" She said happily. "Have a good day at school, hon! You sure you don't want me to pick you up after school?" "Mom, it's fine! It's not that far!" Gil chuckled. "Okay, well, if you need anything, call me." "I will. Love you, mom." "Love you, too, Gil." As soon as he closed the door, the bell had just rang and Gil ran as fast as he could to get to class early before the second bell.
"Morning, Gil!" His math teacher said with a smile, "How is your day going so far?" "Good..just tired and happy to know that this week is almost over." Gil replied with an exhausted sigh. "Yeah, I know how that feels. At least you get to sleep in and relax!" "Yeah, for 2 days.." He said with an eye roll. As much as the school was strict, the teachers and staff were more friendlier, except the principal. Always mean and grouchy and hardly ever cares about anything except serious situations such as school fights.

Gil POV:
Lunch time.. The best part of school. I was finally able to take a break from schoolwork and have some delicious food waiting to be eaten. Kinda glad this school serves good food, other schools would always have the type of food they serve in prison. Other than that, things are going pretty good for me.
"Yo, Gil!" *Sigh* Right..I forgot about my "Friends.." That's Zavier, also the popular kid. He's well...complicated to describe, but all I can say is that he has a very interesting personality. People think we're actually friends except we aren't. I know he only made friends with me because I'm "popular."
I was known to be a great singer, but..damn, I didn't expect to be noticed by a bunch of people- Sometimes, it triggers my anxiety causing me to have a panic attack, but now, I just ignored it. The other two boys are Ryan and Logan. Zavier's minions? I don't know, these people are odd sometimes..this is definitely not me with Goby and Nonny even if I'm the lead singer.
Anyways, Ryan and Logan met Zavier when we were at 5th grade.
They didn't really mind doing things for Zavier which is weird, because I don't know why people don't think of that as controlling. But yeah, they've been friends for a few years and still are and when I came here on the first day of high school, they brought me in. I still don't know them- "Hey, Zavier!" I exclaimed with an awkward smile. "What's up, man? Me and the boys were wondering if you wanna hang out with us." "Uhh, sure! Let me just eat first, though." "Okay, all good! We'll see you when you're done!" "See ya!" Ugh..I really hate that I said that.. It do be like that, sometimes, heh..
TBC
Sorry if this was short, just got tired haha! School is is so struggling, I have two tests tomorrow and I am gonna have a busy/lazy weekend for sure. Anyways, hope you enjoyed! (I also forgot to add that there will be some cursing here so yeah- Angst is like that sometimes.)
