(don't play the song yet)
I wake up in my bed, anxious to see if my ma is awake yet. I hear yelling downstairs. Of course she's awake. I hear her arguing with my dad. I get dressed in my favorite blue hoodie, a dark grey beanie, black hi-tops, with a bright green stripe, black ripped jeans, and a Twenty Øne Piløts t-shirt. I sneak out my window with my backpack, not wanting to see my ma. I hop off the roof and land on my feet. By now, I've done this a million times. I walk to school, listening to one of my favorite songs. Numb, by Roomie. (Play the song now)

"Whatever happened to childhood?
Whatever happened to dreams?
Whatever happened to memories?
Whatever happened to me?

I was supposed to be better
I was supposed to be true
But I, I sold out too

We said we'd make it together
We said we'd never give up
We gave each other forever
But then we had to grow up

We were supposed to be stronger
We were supposed to be true
But we, we gave up too

We all go numb
We all go numb
We all go numb

Distract ourselves
So we don't see
What we've become

We all go numb
We all go numb
We all go numb

You compromise all you believe in
Then you're numb, believe in nothing

Whatever happened to true love?
The kind you feel when you're young
When she was all you could think of
I guess those feelings are gone
My friends have started to settle
Guess they just want to be two
And I, I'll settle too
But I, I still want you

We all go numb
We all go numb
We all go numb

Distract ourselves
So we don't see
What we've become

We all go numb
We all go numb
We all go numb

You compromise all you believe in
Then you're numb, believe in nothing."

I fuckin' love that song. I think. Finally, I make it to school. I walk to my classroom. There, I see mark. He always makes me feel better. Kinda. He comes over to me and says "Hey, I met this guy named Felix yesterday, and he pointed you out and said you were a nice guy! I'm Mark Fischbach, nice to meet you!" I grab his hand and say what was supposed to be 'Hi Mark! I'm sure we'll be good friends' but what turned out to be "H-h-h-huuhh ha ha... Friends! Bye!" And I walked back to my desk. Shit, if Felix told me mark was gonna say hi, I wouldn't have made a fool of myself! I think while I listen to music. "Teacher?" I ask. "Yes Jack?" She asks me. "May I go to the bathroom?" I ask walking out.
