Mark and Heather's Revenge

Chapter 6

Although, the talks ended after a while, because of course I never got into any other fights, but I still never talked to Mike after that.

After I came out to my friends, all of them, except for Mike were very supportive and nothing changed, which I was grateful for. And when I realized I had to run away from my dad, I was devastated, considering I had to leave all my friends, considering I just came out to them. And to go to this town, where no one knows me, and where I have no friends.

Luckily I met Anthony. I didn't think I was going to meet anyone for a while, but almost immediately, I might have found an amazing friend.

Right now, in my thoughts, it was a Friday morning, in the same week, four days after I met Anthony, and I was in my bed thinking all of these thoughts.

"Trent, it's time to get ready for school, you have about half an hour till you have to go." My mom, Gwen yelled up to me

"Ok, getting ready now." I yelled down to her

I then immediately got ready for school. I took my shower, got dressed, brushed my teeth, and went downstairs before my mom left for work.

"Hey Trent, I'm really sorry, but I'm going to be a little late home from work today, I have an unexpected client today." She told me while running all over the house trying to get ready to leave

"That's fine, I can stay by myself for a little while." I said

"Yea, I know, but I'm still a little scared after the incident." My mom, Gwen said

"I know." I said

Yea, that's the one thing I didn't mention. We tried leaving my dad once, but it didn't last long. We left for a motel for two nights, and on the second night, my dad found us, and broke in. I thought he was going to kill me, but luckily my mom came in and was able to get me and we left immediately. And that's when we left for this town.

"Ok. I know you'll be okay, just remember to be careful and don't open the door to any strangers." She said

"I know, I know." I said knowing she says that every time she leaves the house

"Oh, and I forgot to ask, how was your school day yesterday, do you like your teachers more, did you make any new friends?" She asked me

Yes, I never told her about Anthony yet, I knew she'd ask a ton of questions, so I didn't bother. But I guess I'll tell her now.

"School was fine yesterday, teachers are fine considering I'm the new kid, and they like to ease me in first." I said

"Ok good, so, did you meet anyone?" She asked

"Well...I sorta met someone that's a really good friend, on Monday..." I said knowing she'll be upset that I didn't tell her sooner

"Good! But, how come you didn't just tell me on Monday, why did you wait until now?" She asked me

"I guess, I just wanted to make sure that we were actually friends, that it just wasn't a nice conversation I had." I said

"Ok, that's really good! I'm really glad you made a friend on your first day of school." She said

"Yea, me too." I said
