Life

He thinks life's great, nothing to worry about. He's doing important state exams this year but so far his grades are good. As, Bs and maybe a C or two. That's school, just plain old boring school. It's really important, to his parents, That he gets good grades because when he does he can live a happy life. If he does good. He could be a great actor or maybe a doctor, if he gets the grades. But he gets good grades. His school life is pretty good. Nothing bad there except maybe a few clashes with teachers because of him not doing his homework.
So his academic life is prosperous. How's his social life? He thinks life's great, nothing to worry about. He's got an amazing girlfriend. She's funny, cute, pretty, smart, friendly, carismatic an the list goes on. They're hitting month three. The time just flew, but of course it did, I mean they've got great friends old and new. It's great. He's having a great time, he's invincible. Smoking can kill you? Not him. Drinking can kill you? Not him. Drugs can kill you not him. But they can all ruin you... ...but not him! Sex, drugs, all we need is some rock n' roll, his favourite kind of music. If the bands do it then he can. Once a month, once a week then multiple times a week. Almost every day, but hey... He's invincible! He really likes his girlfriend, he really does. He wants to see her all the time. He's going out, meeting her, doing drugs then they're 'rubbing fun'. It's not good. He's getting stuff of just one guy, a great guy. Eventually his parents notice. They worry and then, they notice. He's doing it with just one guy. He goes out with this guy, they go to town. They take a toke and reach the sky, just like they can fly. His friend is there the three musketeers. His friend is just the same but his schooling and family sucks. Walking home he calls his dad, "We can walk home in the dark!" A few more phone calls and it's organised. Get a lift home with that one guy then him and his friend will get a lift back home. His friend dad is angry. It way too late. In both the time and for his sake. He gets out and stumbles home. His parents notice he's as white as a ghost... ...he must be stoned. A quick drug talk they let him go. He goes online and tells a friend. It's funny. Thy call him to sit down, in the living room. Another talk and then. They tell him of his aunt and uncle. Who both did heroine. They smoked it. They sealed it on the streets of Spain. His uncle got bust an put in jail. He got out, the two of them were living in a state. The two of them, their lovers and his baby cousin. Now he wasn't born at the time but his baby cousin sure was. They were gunna die, the five of them. But then a friend told their parents and their parents rescued them. That age the parents a decade in a day. The youngest son, his father, was troubled by this before when it was a little hash and after that it was speed. But they quit. They're sober, but it still caused pain for the family... ...and his auntie child. Her husband died and then she quit, now she's never really there. His parents told him this just to give him a scare.
So he quit. No drugs, no drink, no smoking. He really got a scare. Infact, he so scared of what might happen to him that it always makes him cry, or at least get teary-eyed. But he really likes his girlfriend and she is there. She'll help him in the way and maybe he'll get her to stop too. Once he tells her, his story.

An now life's great. He doesn't think he knows it.

Reality hit you hard...
