Confessions of a Teenage Perfectionist
Confession Number Six: Happy Families don't exist.
  He basically falls out of the driver's side, and advances towards my spot on the walkway by the front door. If I had any brains, I would run and hide in a bush or something, but I'm frozen to this spot.
He stumbles closer, clutching a bottle with beer sloshing back and forth.
It amazes me every night how he makes it home okay. 
He catches a look of my face brought to light by the moon.
"Cor, that you?" He squints, and then his expression turns from questioning to anger.
I shake my head in fear, and back up several steps, but it's no use. 
His body slams into mine, and we fall back onto the concrete. He screams at me, and I can smell the alcohol on him.
"WHY DID YOU LEAVE ME? WHY COR?! WHY?!" He punches at my stomach, but he's an uncoordinated drunken mess, and misses several times. My heard hurts from the impact. 
"WHY WOULD YOU LEAVE US! I NEED YOU! WHY WOULD YOU DO IT!" his fist makes contact with my jaw, my gut, my neck, and I try to fight him off of me, but he's too heavy. 
He says Why, over and over and over again, hitting and kicking and biting, over and over again, until he's too exhausted to continue, and when he finally passes out, I grab his keys out of his pocket, and drag him inside, and put him to bed. 
and then I pass out on the bathroom floor, mentally and physically drained.

Confessions of a Teenage Perfectionist
Confession Number Three: I hate answering questions, I'm afraid I'll get them wrong.
  I glance at my watch, knowing I am already behind schedule.
"Come on Colyssa, please? Your homework can wait an hour." he pleads.
I tuck my hair behind my ears, and turn to tell him that I simply can't. Something stops me though.
When I look at his face, I don't see that smile that I thought would be constant. I see genuine sadness, sadness that I caused.
"I guess I'm far enough ahead."
He does something can only be described as a "Happy Dance." I smirk, and get out of the car.
He leads me to the front door and pushes it open. I'm greeted by the smell of pumpkin spice and baking bread, and light piano music is playing in the background. 
"Mom! I'm home! And I brought a friend!" 
A tall woman appears, wiping flour coated hands on a frilly apron, smiling. I doubletake at her smile. It's exactly the same as Josh's.
"Well hi, I'm Margaret Laury, Josh's mom. It's nice to meet you...?"
"Colyssa, Colyssa VanPulson. It's nice to meet you too." I tell her, managing a smile.
"Oh so you're Colyssa! Thank you for bringing Josh home, it means a lot."
"It's no problem," I assure her. 
"Mom, we're going to my room, okay?"
She nods, smiling, and returns back to what I assume is the kitchen, while we go up the stairs and into the first door on the right. 
His room is my nightmare. There are clothes all over, the bed is unmade, and random trinkets and drawings cover the rest of the available surfaces. A half eaten pastry sits on top of a dresser.
"Your mom is nice." I offer.
"Yea she's great. What are your parents like?"
"My mom died three years ago, and my dad works full time, I don't see him a lot."
He looks crestfallen. "I'm so sorry. You look pretty good for not having parents around."
"I can take care of myself."
He pauses awkwardly."Well...do you want to watch a movie or something?"
I tell him sure, and he pops a DVD into a TV mounted in the upper right corner. The superhero movie Avengers. We both sit on a litte futon he has set up and watch it together. 
I'm so tired from last night though. I fall asleep. 

***

I awake, what must be hours later. Josh is sprawled out next to me, mouth wide open, gangly limbs all splayed out. Grudginly, I check my watch. 2:36 AM.
Crap.
I shake Josh awake. "Josh, JOSH! Wake up! I need to get home!"
He blinks rapidly, "Whaaa?"
"I can't find my keys and I need to get home! now!"
He falls off of the futon, uncoordinated and a little freaked out at how he's been woken up. 
It takes him awhile, but finally, about ten minutes later, he's coherent enough to understand.
"I don't know where your keys are. If it's an emergency I'll just drive you home."
I nod, just eager to get home. before He does. 
We pull into the driveway at 3 AM, on the dot. As Josh pulls off of our road. A familiar black truck pull onto it. I rush to get inside, but then realizing. I don't have my keys. I'm locked out.

Confessions of a Teenage Perfectionist
Confession Number Four: I rarely am violent.
 I stumble, exhausted, to the lunch table. Dad's clothes were gone this morning, and there were breakfast dishes in the sink. I hope he's feeling okay. Josh appears soon after, taking his seat, studying my face as I rub at my eyes. He folds his hands and attempts at looking serious.
"I have a proposal to put on the table."
I eye him skeptically, "Go on."
He pretends to straighten a tie, but in reality all he's wearing is a t-shirt and jeans.
"If I promise to be your best friend forever and ever, will you give me ride home from school for the rest of the year?" 
I answer, straight on, "What makes you think I don't already have a best friend?"
He laughs, "You sit here, alone, every day. You take every AP class available, the CD's in your car were stacked alphabetically, and you have trust issues with juice pouches. You haven't lived."
"Yet you choose to sit by me?" 
"I see potential in you." He responds, leaning back and smiling.
I throw a carrot stick at his face.
"My my Colyssa, I didn't know you had a violent side."
I smirk, "You don't know anything about me."
He takes a bite of the carrot and proclaims
"Challenge accepted."

***

"Oh come on, you have to have at least one favorite sport!" he complains, drumming along with radio on my dashboard with his fidgety fingers.
I shake my head, "I have zero coordination, sports are not my thing."
"Okay, well, what's your favorite letter?"
glancing at him, "Letter?"
He moves from drumming on the dash to my arm, and I jerk it away from him. 
"Yes, letter. You know that song all the kids sing? The one with 27 letters? Pick one of those."
"First of all, it's 26. Second, who has a favorite letter?"
He feigns offense, placing a hand over his heart, "I do!" 
"You're a sophomore in high school! Learn your alphabet! And fine then, what's yours?"
"My favorite letter is Q. Now it's your turn to pick one."
This is how the conversation has been all day. He would hunt me down in hallways between classes and ask things like What's your middle name? or What's the cheesiest movie you've ever seen?
"Why Q?" I ask, curious.
"Because when you turn it on it's side, it looks like a bowl with a spoon in it."
"What? No it doesn't!"
He laughs, "Oh, but it does. God Colyssa, stop questioning my thought process. This is about YOU!"
"Fine! I like Y, you can write it about 20 different ways."
He nods, approving, "Okay, so-"
I cut him off, "Josh, were here" 
I have just pulled into his driveway.
He looks at me expectantly. 
"Well do you wanna come inside?"

Confessions of a Teenage Perfectionist
Confession Number Two: I have no patience for dogs.
  At the end of the day, I began to pack up my backpack to head home. I feel a tap on my shoulder, and turn to see Josh, smiling, of course. 
"Hey Colyssa, I was just wondering, could you tell me how to get to..." he struggles to read a map clutched in his hands, and then finishes, "341 North Seeker Street?"
I glance at the map. "Yea, that's just one street over from where I live, why?"
"I guess I live there now, and I kind of need a ride, would you mind?"
I agree to give him a ride, and pack my things up, with him standing over my shoulder. 
"Do you really take all of those classes? Do you ever have any fun?" I ignore his jibe, grab my keys, and tell him I'm parked out front. 
We walk out to my truck, and he hops in the passanger seat with ease.
What is with this kid? He's like an energetic little puppy, following me around, always happy. Some kind of golden retreiver, maybe. 
I start the engine, and we pull out of the parking lot, beginning the fifteen mile drive from school to our neighborhood. 
He goes through my glove compartment, and pulls out my stack of CD's, nodding with approvement.
"I didn't peg you as the rock type." He shoves the CD's back, turning my angular stack into an uneven mess. I grip the sterring wheel, reminding myself I can fix it as soon as he gets out. 
"You're not much of a conversationalist, are you?" he asks, moving on to fiddle with the radio dial. 
I take a deep breath, not answering, tying to ignore the fact that he's completely messing up my preset stations. 
"You can't sit still, can you?" I counter, glancing at him as his fingers freeze, previously twisting the seat belt wrapped around his torso.
For the first time all day, he isn't smiling.
He sits back, with his hands at his sides. "I'm sorry, I didn't realize."
I am silent.
"I'm just nervous. New school and all, you know?" he adds.
"You'll adjust fine, you're outgoing enough." I attempt to comfort him.
He laughs, "Thanks, is that some dig to yourself?" 
"No, I just don't have anything to talk about." I respond, wathcing the road, avoiding his probing gaze.
"I'm sure you do. You just maybe...don't know how to say it." He flicks the air freshener, and watches it swing back and forth like a dog watches the toy in his master's hand.
I continue to watch the road. 
"Did I do something? I get this feeling you don't like me very much." 
"I never said that." I respond.
I pull into his driveway. He retreives a blue sharpie marker from his jeans pocket, and rolls up my sleeve. 
"What are you doing?!" I ask, jerking my arm away. 
"Trust me." He takes hold of it again gently, and scribbles something on the surface. I squirm at the ink poisoning my skin. 
When he backs away, a phone number is scribbled, barely legible. 
"In case you ever figure out what to say." 
Then he grabs his backpack, and walks into the house.

Confessions of a Teenage Perfectionist
Confession Number One: I will not, under any circumstances, drink from a pouch.
  
  Like every other day, I woke up to the beeping of my alarm clock at 6:00 AM. Like every other day, I straightened my hair, applied minimal makeup, and left for school at 7:05 AM. Like every other day, I went to AP Algebra 2, Honors English, Honors History, and then Intro to Enginering before lunch. Like every other day, I sat at the table in the far left corner of the caf with my cold lunch, and my AP Physics book under my arm. Like every other day, I put my book on my left side, and my lunch on my right, and began to eat, sandwhich first.
Unlike any other day, someone sat by me. I was startled by the unexpected noise, and looked up to see him smiling at me.
"Can I help you?" I ask, carefully placing my sandwhich back into it's plastic bag.
He has a tray full of greasy school pizza, a small bag of chips, and another paper bag at his side. 
"Hey, I'm Josh, it's my first day here and I was wondering if I could sit with you, everywhere else is full." He smiles again, showing bright white teeth. 
"Sure you can, welcome to Bristol High, Josh." I say, returning his smile, and return to eating my sandwhich. 
He takes a bite of the pizza, and I wrinkle my nose at the squishing sound of grease and cheese. He notices me expression. 
"Something wrong?"
"No, sorry." I avert my eyes and wonder why this boy decided to sit by me.
"I know it's gross, but I'm so hungry and grabbed my seven year old brother's lunch by mistake," he offers, giving me a sympathetic look. I nod at him and he adds, "So what's your name?"
"Colyssa VanPulson," I answer, twisting open the cap on my water bottle.
He pulls a juice box from the paper bag and sticks the yellow straw through the hole, eyeing his handiwork. 
"I don't like this flavor, you want it?" he asks, holding it out to me. 
"No thank you."
"But it's a Capri Sun! Everyone loves Capri Suns!" he argues, waggling it at me, as if that will increase the offer.
"I don't drink anything that comes from a pouch, but thanks for the offer."
He stares at me like the T-Rex skeleton exhibit at the museum in town.
His look turns from enstrangement to curiosity. "Why not?"
"You can't see inside of them."
He laughs, thinking I'm joking, but after realizing I'm completely serious, he stops, and just smiles that smile I'm going to assume is a regular thing for him. 
"That is probably the strangest thing I have ever heard, are you serious?" he asks, looking intruiged.
I nod, "Why would I drink from something, if I don't know what could be in it?"
He then does something unexpected. Over his shoulder, he tosses the juice pouch into the trash can next to the pillar by another row of tables. Someone shouts "Nice shot!"
"Well then, why risk it?" Josh says. 
I suprise myself, by smiling in return.


Sorry it's kind of boring, but I promise it'll pick up soon! if you want a notification on the next chapter, leave a comment! :)
