Spencer's POV
I swear to you I hate new schools. I hate being the outcast. I miss my old school and my old friends. So far I met this really great girl called Jessica. She was basically my tour guide and I met this girl named Kyla too; she's pretty cool.
Me and my family moved here from Ohio. This place is so different from where I lived but I'll manage to make it because honestly how hard can it be. Back in Ohio you could say that I was the queen of the school with my talents on the mat and on the streets. I use to take gymnastic lessons and I was the best but I just couldn't keep out of trouble long enough to keep going to them.
Since it's a new school I'm hoping to turn that around but with that Ashley girl I just might go back to my old habits. You would think since Ohio is nothing but farms and land that there wasn't any drama; wrong, I made drama there. What can I say; I was the trouble maker of the town possibly the state.
My mom had to move my family out here because of me, that's what she says. I believe for a guy but no one else believes that. I don't know why I act the way I do but ever since I came out like a couple years ago everything went down the drain. I Started getting bad grades and I would dress hmm lets say like the person off of The Bad Girls Club, Jennavecia; I think she is so hot, especially with the lip piercing. That's why I got mine done but I don't wear it at school in case I get in a fight and they pull it out.
I only dress like that now is when I am at home because that is when I am really me. At school people think I am some preppy person. I am only trying out for the Cheerleading team because my mom is making me. I use to be on the squad back home and I was captain before I came out and they kicked me off the squad for being gay.
But now I am here waiting for the bell to ring so I can go find my sister and just go home and get out of this hell hole. Finally the bell rings and I jet out of class in search of my sister. I see her just standing in front of the school playing with her phone.
I walk up to her and just stand there waiting for her to notice me. "Hey Nikki, How was your day?" I say trying to be nice. Ever since we moved out here she has been completely ignoring me.
My sister and I really don't look anything alike except for our eye color. She looks more like our dad; she has shiny black hair that goes to the middle of her back. I think she is really pretty and so does everybody else. People use to say that she was going to be another one of me before I came out, which was beautiful, popular, and smart but now they just say those things too her and don't mention me.
She raises her shoulders and looks up when she hears a honk. We spot my mom picking us up so we both head to the car; her getting in the front and me in the back. My mom starts to pull out and decides to ask Nicole how her day was besides mine. "So Nicole, How was your first day in the new school?" My mom says while paying attention to the road.
"Oh it was ok I guess," Oh she answers her but not me. I can't believe my own sister hates me because of who I am. We drive the rest of the way home in silence and once we get there I head up to my room to change into my comfortably clothes which is a black t-shirt with some white writing on it, gray sweats, my converse and then I put my hat on to the side and my bottom lip piercing in. Now I feel at home and comfortable.
I walk down stairs into the kitchen to get something to drink. When I enter my sister looks at me, gives me a sneer, exits and heads into the living room. I grab a coke out of the fridge and head to the living room and sit next to Nicole.
"Nicole what the hell is your problem?" I say looking at her seriously. She looks at me with hurt eyes like I did something bad to her.
"You…" She says in a whisper at me and then looks back at the TV screen.
"What?!" I yell at her. How can she say that? I have always been there for her. I swear my family is going insane.
"Well you kind of ruined our family Spencer. Why did you have to tell Mom and Dad, now nothing is going to be the same again. I can't have a gay sister you know it's a sin. Hasn't church ever taught you anything?!" She's yelling back with tears running down her face.
"I didn't choose to be like this you know. You know what I'm out of here," I say grabbing my sweater and heading out the door.
Before I could close the door I hear Nicole yell something "Yea that's what you do best Spence; you run!" She's right I do but only because I cant handle all the pressure sometimes.
I walk till I can't walk no more. I have been walking for maybe an hour now and I have no clue where I am. I have just been walking around continually just thinking of how life would be if I never liked girls. So far I came up with the conclusion as yea my life would be better because my family would still love me but then no because I would have never met my first love but maybe that wouldn't have been such a bad thing.
Somehow I am where a whole bunch of stores are and I see a diner so I head over there and just sit in a booth smelling in the fresh aroma of coffee. I look in my pockets to see if I have any money but of course I come up with nothing because with my luck I had to leave to all on my dresser.
I just sit there and think about basically nothing because I don't want to think right now I just want to enjoy the peacefulness and nothing more. A waitress comes up to me with a pad and pencil in her hand. She looks to be around 19 or 20 but she is pretty. She has medium long black hair, she looks white but I do believe she's Mexican and she has outstanding green eyes.
"Hey, my name is Darleen and I will be your waitress." She said after giving me a pretty big smile. How can she be so happy? "What can I get cha'?" She gets her pad and pencil ready.
"I'm sorry I don't have money. I just wanted to sit here." I give her a soft smile hoping I can because usually they make you buy something or get out.
"Oh ok, that's fine. Do you like coffee?" that was easier than I thought.
"Umm… not really I just like the smell, but my favorite drink is cherry coke." I give her another smile. I really do like cherry coke and even better when it has vodka in it; Yummy.
"Oh ok." She turns around and walks away. Ok that was weird. I look out the window watching some cars go by. "Here" I hear from behind me and I turn around to see Darleen handing me a class what looks to be like soda.
I look at her and she is just smiling at me. "I know you have no money but I couldn't just let you sit here and eat or drink anything. Don't worry either it's on me."
I give her a smile. "Thanks..." I say in sort of a whisper. She nods her head and leaves. That is probably one of the nicest things anyone has ever done for me in a long time. I take a sip and yep its cherry coke. Maybe living here isn't so bad.
I have maybe just been sitting here for like a couple of hours and Darleen kept coming back to fill up my drink every once in a while. She comes back again; I say this is like her third or fourth time and she is about to pick up my drink again but when she puts her hand on my glass I cover hers with mine.
She looks at me a little bit surprised because I haven't even really talked to her at all. "When's your shift over?" I say still holding her hand. I don't like her like that I just hope she can be a person I can talk too. I just need some one like that.
"Umm…" She looks behind to look at a clock that's hanging on a wall and looks back at me. "About a couple minutes"
"Do you like want to hang out afterwards" I say kind of embarrassed because it feels like I'm begging here to hang out with me or something.
"Uh sure…" Darleen said knowing that I probably just need a friend right now. "I'll be right back. I just have to go get my stuff." Darleen left taking my glass with her. In a couple of minutes she returned with a jacket in hand. She gave me a small smile and nod towards the door and I quickly followed her.
We walk to what looks like her car. It's cute; it's a red mini cooper with white racing stripes. She gets in and unlocks the other door for me and I get in. I wonder where we are going to go.
