Complete Opposites (PJO Next Generation High School AU)

Chapter 8

Luna POV - 

Honestly I don't care that I like Charles. they way he acts around me, it's really obviously that he likes me. But I'm not ready to date someone again. Back in eighth grade I dated a girl named Brittany and she cheated on me, with some random girl from her summer camp. That and being relentlessly bullied about being bisexual, I almost killed myself. 

Thinking about this made me lose my appetite. "Hey mom... I'm not hungry. I'm going to go read." I stood and walked to my room, and went to Spotify to turn on Boy in the Bubble by Alec Benjamin. I sat and listened to the song on repeat for a few minutes. 

It was 6:48, I was walking home 

Stepped through the gate, and I'm all alone 

 I had chicken on the plate, but the food was cold 

 Then I covered up my face so that no one knows 

 I didn't want trouble, I'm the boy in the bubble 

 But then came trouble 

 When my mom walked into the living room 

 She said, "Boy, you gotta tell me what they did to you" 

 I said, "You don't wanna know the things I had to do" 

 She said, "Son, you gotta tell me why you're black and blue" 

 I said I didn't want trouble, I'm the boy in the bubble 

But then came trouble 

 And my heart was pumping, chest was screaming 

Mind was running, air was freezing 

 Put my hands up, put my hands up 

 I told this kid I'm ready for a fight 

Punch my face, do it 'cause I like the pain 

 Every time you curse my name 

 I know you want the satisfaction, it's not gonna happen 

 Knock me out, kick me when I'm on the ground 

 It's only gonna let you down 

 Come the lightning and the thunder 

 You're the one who'll suffer, suffer 

Well I squared him up, left my chest exposed 

 He threw a quick left hook and it broke my nose 

 I had thick red blood running down my clothes 

 And a sick, sick look 'cause I like it though 

 I said I didn't want trouble, I'm the boy in the bubble
