The Broken Ginger
Where's Alan?
*Austin's P.O.V.*
I was at my locker waiting for Alan to come in. He didn't show up. I went to class. I didn't see him anywhere. I went to music and told the guys that Alan wasn't at school all day today. They all knew I was gay and had a crush on Alan. They gave me sympathetic looks. We wrote a little bit, but we didn't want to go too far without Alan. Why wasn't he here?
*Alan's P.O.V.*
I couldn't go to school today. I couldn't even walk. I hurt all over. When I came home last night, my dad was sober. He looked at me and stood up. He beat me worse than he ever has. I used to think he would only beat me because he was drunk, but last nights actions proved me wrong. After he was satisfied with what he had done, he walked out of the house, a smile on his face. I've been crying ever since. I feel like shit. Emotionally and physically. I forgot to get Austin's number so I couldn't tell him I can't come over tonight. Then I thought that maybe he has a Facebook. I winced as I tried to get up. I finally got to my laptop. I searched 'Austin Carlile'. I scrolled through the list of people. I found him. I sent him a friend request. I messaged him. I said 'I'm sorry I can't make it to your place tonight. I think I have the flu or something.' About 3 minutes later he replied. 'Its fine. I forgot t give you my number. (His number)' I put his number in my phone. 'Thanks. I gotta go. Bye Austin.' 'Ok. Bye Alan.' I turned my laptop off. I made the painful journey to my bed. I couldn't sleep. I just stared at the ceiling until my alarm went off. I sighed, knowing I would have to go to school today.
