Hostile,

Grayson

Life has been easy for me. Top of my class. Star quarterback of the football team. Every guy wants to be my friend, and every girl wants to date me. Yeah, life is pretty sweet. Except it’s not. It’s all fake. School comes too easy for me, and I’m bored. Football isn’t fun anymore. The guys I hang out with aren’t really my friends. And the girls? I don’t want to date them. The only one I want to date . . . He’s a little bit . . . hostile.

Life has never been easy for me. A foster kid, lucky enough to be adopted as a teen but who still can’t find a way to be happy. I have two best friends who are amazing and supportive, and yet, I can’t bring myself to tell them my biggest secret. Parents who pay for a private school a kid like me could never have dreamed of . . . that I hate. It feels all wrong when it should feel right. And I guess . . . that’s made me nothing but . . . hostile.
