Ashton was walking back to his Aunt and Uncle's apartment, as he was listening to music again, this time World's Smallest Violin by AJR started to play. 'This song is really popular right now.' he thought to himself. "Somwhere in the universe, somewhere someone's got it worse. Wish that made it easier, wish I didn't feel the hurt." Ashton sang in a low voice, he stopped when he almost walked into on-coming traffic. Horns were being blared at him, "MY BAD! I'M SORRY!" he hollered as if the drivers could hear him through their tinted windows. Once it was FINALLY time for pedestrians to cross the road, he sprinted across to the other side and continued his walk. Once he got to the apartment, he unlocked the door and walked in, dinner was left out for him, after he ate his chicken enchiladas, he went upstairs to his bathroom. He showered, brushed his teeth, and dried his hair; he put on a white t-shirt and black shorts to sleep in. He layed in bed with his lamp and phone being the only source of light in his bedroom and scrolled through Instagram for a bit. He decided to go to his new school's insta, 'Woah, THAT'S WHAT THE SCHOOL LOOKS LIKE!? IT'S FUCKING HUMONGOUS!!' he internally yelled. He noticed that most of the kids that attend East Bay Academy are family businesses. 'Clara's mom is a famous real estate agent..so I guess it makes sense why she attends here.' Ashton reminded himself. He started to fall asleep, it was 8:45 PM, he put his phone charging and on his nightstands turned off his lamp, and went under his blanket. At 5:00 AM his alarm was going off, he knew he couldn't snooze it, he needed to get up for school. Yawning as shivering from his freezing AC cooled room, he got up to go get dressed. Taking off his pajamas, he slipped on his white button-up and black sweater vest. Ashton took a minute to stretch his arms, after that he put on his navy blue tie and beige dress pants; after that he put on his socks and black dress shoes. 'Alright, now I need to do my hair, brush my teeth, and make sure I have everything..' he thought. He grabbed his backpack and phone as heading into his bathroom, setting both his bag and phone onto the counter, he combed his hair to tame it and brushed his teeth throughly, after that he used mouthwash and flossed. Grabbing his stuff, he walked downstairs to the kitchen, grabbed a nutri-grain bar, and double checked his uniform and bag. 'I have everything, so I should be good to go now!' Ashton prepped himself up.
Ah, isn't it just wonderful to wake up to the annoying sound of noisy people honking the horns of their vehicles at one another? Yeah I didn't think so, because although most people in the city are used to it and don't take it to heart, Ashton, who has only moved into the city recently to stay with his aunt and uncle in their luxurious apartment, absolutely can't stand the sound. Atleast he doesn't need to rely on his phone for alarms! But what could go wrong? Lots, lots WILL go wrong! But what if moving into the city and starting at a new school wasn't so bad after meeting a certain someone in the hidden game room in East Bay Academy?
