I'll be everything that you need

Chapter 1

I sat up in my bed and picked up my cell phone that was ringing next to my ear. I must have fallen asleep. I opened my phone to see who it was. The annoying bright light of the phone somewhat blinded me as I tired to read, Alara’s name and number. She is my best friend, and only female best friend, and has been ever since grade three, when Julian, her, and I use to chase each other around the playground at school. She is very affectionate and caring but I think its because she is trying to hide the fact that her mom isn’t that way towards her. She can be moody and annoying but I get along with almost everyone that it works out. Julian, on the other hand, is my best male friend. I spend almost every weekend hanging out with him, which can be considered a waste of weekends since all we do is sit on our asses playing video games and eat junk food. Some of the time is non-wasted, when he wakes up early waking me up, though I love to sleep, to go out and play basketball or something outside. This has been a routine that we have done for years, by the way; we have been friends since kindergarten, and before we played the video games, we just played on his playground in the backyard.

“Hello…” I said in a quiet voice.

“Where are you at Wyatt?” she asked worrying.

“I fell asleep…” I said rubbing my eyes.

“Hurry up get over here…” she ordered, unsympathetic.

“My sister has the car keys…” I replied disappointed.

“Call up Julian he isn’t here yet either.” She snapped back.

“Ok, bye.” I said, apologetically, hanging up.

I dialed Julian’s number. The phone rang twice.

“Hello?” he asked sounded somewhat annoyed.

“I need a ride to the party…” I said disappointed.

“I don’t think I can go. My parents decided to be parents tonight.” He replied angrily

“Sneak out… that is what I’m going to do.”

“I think they will hear my car.” he said sarcastically.

“I will call Alara and tell her that we won’t make it.” I replied unhappy.

“I will see you tomorrow at school. I got to go my dad is coming.” He said irritated.

Then I heard a click. I dialed Alara and she picked up after the first ring.

“Julian and I won’t be there. His parents won’t let him out and I have no ride.”

“Just make sure you guys show up to my 16th birthday in 2 months.”

“Will do…”

“See you at school bye.”

I could tell that she was a little tipsy, by the distance in her voice and the background noise. Knowing that I must have fallen asleep again after waking up to the sound of my alarm beeping, I got up and dressed. I put on girl pants with a studded pyramid belt and a tight T-shirt and a tie. I dragged my tired self into the bathroom, where I looked in the mirror. My dark brown blonde highlighted hair was a mess. My bangs are longer on the left side, which covers my left eye and shorter on the right side. My blue eyes stood out because the white part of my eyes is red. I hope no one notices I got high last night. I grab some eye drops and put some in my eyes. I put on black eyeliner. I also have a lip ring on the right side of my lip. I brushed my teeth.

“Wyatt hurry up!” screamed my sister Emma who is 18 months older than me.

“I’m coming!” I screamed back.

I slipped on my shoes and grabbed my backpack. I had an older brother too, named Joseph, who is out of the house. We don’t know where he is. He is 20. I have a little sister too she is 10 and her name is Chloe. I ran down the hallway and to the foyer where Emma was waiting. She went out the front door and I followed. Once at school I went into the cafeteria where everyone gathers in the morning and after school to catch their friends. I went to the table that my friends sit at. I walked up and Julian turned around. He has dirty blonde hair and brown eyes. He puts gel in his hair to make it look somewhat spiked down. He was wearing a spiked collar as well. He also has a lip ring on the right side of his lip. We got our lips pierced together. He was wearing slightly baggy jeans and a Panic! At the disco hoodie.

“Wyatt!!” screamed Alara giving me a hug.

Alara has auburn hair with red streaks, hazel eyes and she has a slight light tan. She was wearing a black and purple corset and a purple plaid skirt, with black fishnets and boots. She was dating this one guy in our group named Robbie. He has black hair with green streaks and emerald green eyes and he is very pale. He was wearing a black Bullet for My Valentine shirt and black and green pants with the straps. The warning bell rang for us to go to class. I went to my locker, put my backpack in my locker, and pulled out my book for Chemistry. It was my first class of the day and I had it with Julian. I took my seat, it was dumb we had a seating chart, but it was ok because Julian was one of my lab partners and then Alyson was our other partner. She was somewhat popular but not really. The rest of the day was boring so after school we were all sitting at our table talking. I was waiting for Julian, who had got into trouble with his last class teacher.

“Wyatt, you coming home with me?” asked Emma as she walked past our table.

“I’m going to go over to Julian's for awhile.” I replied.

“Ok…” she said looking at us and then looking away.

She walked away. A few minutes later, Julian showed up. He looked upset.

“What happened?” asked Alara pulling away from Robbie's lips.

“She said I was being disrespectful and that I need to straighten up or she will give me two detentions next time.” He said annoyed.

“How many did you get?” asked Robbie.

“Well none… thank god.” He replied relieved.

I was sitting on the table not saying anything. This was only part of our group, us four. There was more but they all left already. Julian looked up at me.

“Please don’t sit on the tables.” replied a teacher pushing on my back to get down.

“Sorry…” I apologized

I got down and stood up.

“Let’s get out of here Wyatt. See you two tomorrow.” He replied to Alara and Robbie.

“Bye guys.” I replied.

I followed Julian out to the parking lot where we got into his baby blue corvette. He started speeding as soon as we got out of the parking lot. I could tell he was really mad.

“Julian what’s wrong?” I asked curious to way he was driving so fast.

“She said she was going to call my parents. I just want to make sure that they aren’t home.”

“Doesn’t the school know their work numbers?”

“Yeah I think but they get pissed off when non related work people call and they don’t answer.”

“Even if it concerns you?”

“I hope that they wont.”

“What did you do exactly?”

“I cussed out Trey because he was being a dick to Autumn.” Trey is a football player, so he is a huge jock. Autumn was one of our friends. She has red hair with black streaks and emerald green eyes.

“That guy is a huge dick.” I replied.

Then he pulled into his driveway and into his 5-car garage. His parents are rich and they never have time for him. We got out of his car. We went in and his parents weren’t home. We went up to his bedroom where we were going to start doing homework while we watched TV and sometimes we got high. Julian is an only child. I put my backpack on the floor in front of his dresser and he threw his in his desk chair. His room is so big that he has a sofa in there. The floor is hardwood too. He sat down on his sofa and I sat on the other side.

“Did you get asked out today?” he asked me curiously.

“No… you?”

“No I don’t think I want a girlfriend right now… plus I am not interested in any of the girls in our group or any of the girls at our school period.”

“Me either…” I said as he turned on the TV.

“What do you want to watch?” he asked looking at me.

“I don’t care you pick…” I said feeling a little uncomfortable and I didn’t know why.

He changed it to something and then looked at me.

“Why are you so tense?” he asked.

“I don’t know...” I replied uncomfortable.

“I’m not going to hit you because Trey is an ass… I can control my anger… most of the time…”

“I know and I did see you get into a fight with that one guy at that party on Friday.”

“Yeah well he was picking on you… you need to stand up for yourself Wyatt. You let people pick on you.”

I looked down.

“See there you go…” he said aggravated.

My family even picked on me. I was not strong at all that was why I was glad I had a friend like Julian.

“I just wish I could disappear then everyone would be happy.”

Julian got up and kneeled in front of me. He lifted up my chin. I still looked down.

“Look at me please…” he pleaded.

I looked into his brown eyes.

“I love how your blue eyes still are beautiful even when you’re upset.”

I looked at him feeling more uncomfortable and I tried to put my head down to not look at him. Looking in his eyes made me feel something I never felt for anyone else; it made me feel something I can’t explain.

“Wyatt…” he said concerned

“Yes..” I said nervously.

“Close your eyes…”

I closed my eyes and I felt something slightly moist touch my lips.

“Open…” he replied.

I opened my eyes, confused.

“What was that?” I asked offended.

“I kissed you…” he said.

“Why?” I asked somewhat satisfied.

“I’m confused on my sexuality… and I thought maybe you were too.”

I looked into his eyes. He looked frighten as if he just did something wrong.

“Do it again…” I said without thinking it first.

He closed his eyes and I closed mine. I felt his lips touch mine again and his hands touch the sides of my face. I kissed back. The kiss ended up turning into a make out session. He was my first kiss and man did I like it, but I didn’t want to admit it. He pulled away and looked at me.

“Sorry I got carried away.” He replied.

I smiled.

“I like you a lot Wyatt and I have for some time but I have been fighting away my urge to kiss you…”

I was still smiling. I don’t think I have ever smiled this long or this much. I never smile.

“God Wyatt your eyes are so beautiful right now. I don’t think I have ever seen them this light shade of blue. Its beautiful.”

“Shut up and kiss me!” I demanded.

He smiled knowing that I was feeling it too. He sat down on the sofa next to me. He leaned in and put his lips to mine and I closed my eyes. Everytime we kissed my body would go numb and my heart would skip a beat. He pulled away.

“What?” I asked worried.

“We have to keep this a secret… at least for now.” He replied worried.
