Gracen s.m.

chapter one

Finally, Friday has come. I drove home early because I have last period study hall. My mom wasn't home when I got there, thank god. I threw my bag on the floor and hooked my phone up to my speaker and "The Man Who Sold The World" by Nirvana boomed through.

I sang along and laid in my bed and stared at the ceiling until my phone started to ring. It was my best friend, or my only friend, Alex.

"Hey bitch what're you doing?" He asked.

"Hello to you too," I smiled.

"So what're you doing?"

"I was listening to the sweet sweet sound of my dead husband but I got a call from this ugly fag named Alex."

"Awe babe, you're so sweet. Come over now."

"Why?"

"Because I have some gossip and no friends to tell it to except you so come over now."

"Give me 10 minutes."

"Okay bye love you."

"Whatever," I hung up.

I put my shoes back on and then grabbed my keys and left to go to Alex's.

When I got there I walked in and grabbed a water bottle from his fridge.

"Bitch, are you eating my food?" Alex walked through the basement door.

"Just drinking water you hoe, so what's up?"

I walked into the living room and sat on the couch and Alex sat next to me.

"So we're getting a new kid at our school!" He squealed.

"Is that really why you made me come over here. Babe," I put my hand on his knee, "how do you know he's gay?"

"Well," Alex bit his lip, "I don't actually know."

I smacked his arm, "really Alex, don't get your hopes up, he might not be gay."

"I know I know, but a guy can dream right?"

I half smiled.

"Hey maybe he'll be cute, you haven't had a boyfriend since Mike," he said to me.

Mike was my ex, we dated for four years. He really was the love of my life.

He was killed in a car accident last year.

"You okay?" Alex asked me when I didn't reply for a couple seconds.

"Yeah I'm fine. I just don't know if I'm really into dating right now. You know? It's only been a year."

"Yeah I know, Gracen, you need someone who can help you, someone you can love, and someone who will make you feel good."

"You do."

"Gracen, hon, we've been over this, I am gay, and that means that I am into dicks not vaginas so I'm sorry but it's not gunna work."

I laughed, "dang it I was really hoping to get some gay boy action."

He smiled too, "wanna go get some food?"

"Eh I'm not hungry."

"And you're never hungry. Gracen please eat."

"I do Alex, I'm just not hungry right now, okay?"

He nodded, "okay."

"I'm gonna go home now. Love you."

"Love you too."

*Monday morning.*

My alarm went off and I hit snooze and went back to sleep before it went off again.
