Tree of life: Gay Teenager.

Today is the day of the football match, and of course Gabriel's company re-launch. I woke up and did my usual morning routine, I went downstairs for breakfast. Everyone was already up and preparing, Cassie was already done:
Me: Morning guys
Diana: Morning Sammy, I'll see you later tonight okay?
Me: Whoah whoah whoah why so fast?
Gabriel: Time, we don't have time on our side and this perfect queen right here [He pulled my mother by her waist and kissed her on the cheek] has to have the perfect dress for tonight
Cas: Oh damn it, I almost forgot about tonight
Keisha: Mom, can I hire my own designer?
Diana: Uhm, honey..
Gabriel: Yeah sure, why not. Get the best outfit for tonight I want all of you to look marvelous
Keisha: Great, thanks you're the best[She hugged him]
I stood for a while and continued with what I was doing.

I was finally done and ready, we hired a private bus to take Me, Cassie, Jordan, Keisha and Kevin to the field. When we got there, I decided to get ice cream whilst Jordan and Cassie were looking for a bench to sit. I bumped into Carl:
Me: Hey
Carl: Hi
Me: *Sigh* are we cool?
Carl: Yeah sure
Me: Great, wanna join us?
Carl: Uhm, Iam actually with..
[Teresa jumped in]
Teresa: Hey Hun
Me: Hello Teressa
Teressa: Well isn't this lovely, a big football match of the summer just to get us started this summer. We can get to know each other better
Me: I already know enough about you
Teressa: And I already know enough about you too.
Carl: Okay Teressa enough now let's go
Teressa: Until next time..male slut
I almost punched her but Carl held my hand.
Teressa: Let's get out here before this Sleazy jerk ruins my mood
They went, but I was still in rage. Suddenly a person appeared behind me.
Justin: What happened, you're so sour
Me: People are testing me
Justin: Oh..that..so boring, get along with the deal, time is running out and I can't wait for the whole school to look on the disappointment you are, and the worst..Carl too
Justin: Good luck!
He went, and I felt like strangling him but I held my anger inside, Alice came over and noticed that I wasn't okay:
Alice: [She gave me a pat on the back] Are you okay? You look tensed
Me: *sigh* I wish we could switch lives even if it were for a day
Alice: Why?
Me: My life is a complete mess, I can't deal with it. I wanna leave all of this and everyone behind
Alice: Can we talk about it?
Me: I can't
Alice: I can keep a secret, I know almost everyone's secret
I looked at her, and I couldn't help myself but tell her everything. Right from the start to where Iam now:
Alice: Wow, that's Justin being Justin
Me: Is he always like this?
Alice: He's always like that, he's been always like that ever since I met him for the first time. I've always known he's that one boy, who likes being in control, a power seeker.
Me: Is he your ex?
Alice: [Giggling] Noo, he's worse than that
Me: One night stand?
Alice: He is my step brother
Me: Oh wow, you have a step brother too? Cool
Me: Wait, if you are her step sister then can you please help me
Alice: I can't, just because Iam her step sister doesn't mean that I know how to control him or beg him to stop
Me: How do I do it then?
Alice: It's as easy as, that you just have to beat him at his own game
Me: How?
Alice: He's blackmailing you right? All you have to do is return the favour
Me: Okay but, you know his secrets right?
Alice: I don't, I will never want to keep his secrets
Me: Well who else is close to him besides Teressa?
Alice: Jordan
Me: Jordan??
Alice: Yeah his ex boyfriend
Me: They were dating? Okay okay, so I need to gather everyone.
I took the ice cream with and we went to sit on the bench with Cassie, Jordan and Kevin who was sitting a distance from me. I told them everything and we constructed a plan. Carl was playing for the Dragons(our school's football team) and Teressa was playing for the Raiders (our school's cheerleading team). As I was watching I noticed Justin whispering suspiciously to the DJ and giggling with him. He mysteriously handed over a USB and as the DJ was about to plug it in, I rushed over:
Me: Wait wait wait!
DJ: Yo what's up?
Me: Hey there, Iam the school's student body council I was checking if everything is okay and stuff
DJ: Everything is delicious as you can see man
Me: I know, was just checking
Me: Hey can you play a song that I request, it's a song that's good for.. adrenaline!
DJ: Cool man, just give me the words and I make the lyrics
Me: It's Blah blah by Armin Van Buuren [I quickly took the USB without him noticing and left][Blah Blah by Armin Van Buuren was playing]
When I came back I sat next to Kevin. He gave me a weird look. The football match was over, I was tired and drained all over. We went back home but Jordan decided to go on a date night with Mark. It was 7:23pm, we spent almost 12 hours at the field. When we got home, I took a quick shower and wore a dark navy suit and black shoes. I stood in front of the big mirror and looked at myself..
