*Picture of Colby*

Colby's POV

"YOU PIECE OF SHIT WAKE UP!!" I hear my dad yell from downstairs. its the same thing everyday. my dad wakes me up by yelling at me about how worthless I am, then I go to school where the students tell me that too. Sometimes they'll beat me up and if I'm really lucky it'll be both. *note the sarcasm*

I should probably get up and get dressed before my dad comes in and sees that I'm still in bed.

I get up and go to my closet and pick out a dark blue shirt, my black skinny jeans, and my black converse. Don't judge me I don't have a lot of choices.

I go to my bathroom and get into the shower. Since I don't want my dad to get mad at me for taking a long shower I take a short, hot shower.

After I get out of the shower I go brush my teeth, style my hair, and do my other necessities before going downstairs.

When I get downstairs my dad is nowhere in sight. I silently thank anybody who is listening because today I don't have to deal with a beating before school. I go grab an apple and go outside to start my fifteen walk to school. I guess while I'm walking it's a perfect time to tell you about myself.

Well, my name is Colby Hyte. My favorite color is blue. I'm gay. I don't have any friends.....well I never had any friends really.

My family used to be happy when my mom was alive, but then she got cancer and died. Everything just went downhill from there. My dad started to drink a lot and he stopped talking to me. He just isolated himself from everyone. At first that's all that happened until the day he first beat me.

*Flashback*

"Colby" I hear my dad slur from another room "where are you? I just want to talk."

I go out of my room and into the room my dad is in. "Dad?" I try to say strongly, but it comes out as a question.

"There you are" he says and walks closer to me "you know it all your fault right? The reason you're mom is gone." He then slaps me.

I put my hand on my cheek and try to blink away my tears "What do you mean? It's not my fault." I say

"Oh but it is and I'm going to show you."

*Flashback over*

After he said that you can probably guess what happened.

Once I got to school I made a beeline for my locker hoping I could save myself from having an encounter with one of my bullies.

On my way there I heard people talking about how there's a new student and he's a boy. I haven't ever told anyone this and you won't tell anyone will you? I wish I had a boyfriend. Someone to love me, take care of me, and do little things that show they care. Sadly, that won't ever happen to someone like me.

Once I get to my locker I get out the books I need. When i go to turn around I run in to someone and drop all my books.

"I'm so sorry" the person says

"It's ok" I reassure them. When I look at up I see the most beautiful eyes I have ever seen.

"My name is Alex" the person, whose name is now known as Alex, says.

"Colby"

"Well it was nice meeting you Colby, but I have to go" and with that he was gone. He was so hot. Ugh I sound like I'm lovesick. Which I'm not. Besides he's most likely straight and wouldn't go for a loser like me anyways.
