That night I laid on our bed with a half empty Jack Daniels bottle in my hands and tears streaming down my face. The guys left a little while ago after being with me for a few hours. I didn't talk to them at all, and they didn't force me to talk. They just held me as I cried. I have my back on the bed and so I look up at the celing. Memories started to flow through my head.

Today is my first day of kindergarten. I'm scared to start school but mommy says that it'll be just fine. She says that I will get ice cream after school. I'm excited for that. Mommy is holding my hand and we are walking down the hallway of my new school. There are big kids all around me and it scares me. I held on tighter to mommy's hand and she looked down at me and smiled. We got to a classroom that had kids that look my age. We walk inside and mommy helps me take my jacket and backpack off. She put my stuff up for me and then came back to me. She knelt down in front of me and fixed my dress. "Ok baby, I have to go now. You'll be just fine and I'll be back in a few hours to pick you up." "Ok mommy." I said to her, trying to hide the fear in my voice. "I love you Trinity." "I love you too mommy." She kissed my cheek and gave me a hug. She then stood up and started to leave. She turned around and waved at me. I waved back and then she was gone. I looked around the classroom and saw a skinny boy sitting alone in the back of the room. I walked over to him. He looked up at me and he had pretty eyes. "Hi. My name is Trinity Matthews." I told him. "H-hi. I'm Mike Fuentes." He stuttered out. He blushed and looked down. "What's wrong, Mike?" I asked him. "I st-stuttered. I do that when I'm ner-nervous." He blushed even more. "That's alright. I'm nervous too. I don't like big crowds. School is scary." He looked up at me. "School is really scary." He agreed with me. The teacher called us to find a spot anywhere and I sat in the back. Mike sat down to the left of me. I smiled at him and he smiled right back. After a little while was a thing called recess. We got to go outside. I was walking around all alone because I don't have any friends yet and felt someone right by me. I looked over and Mike was looking a little down on me. For a 5 year old, he's the tallest boy in our class. I like being able to look up at him. "The music teacher brought some stuff out for us to play if you want to come with me." Mike said, he obviously isn't nervous anymore if he's not stuttering. I nodded my head and he lead me to where there were kids playing with guitars and little drums. I picked up a guitar and sat down on the ground with it. I tuned it a little and then started to play. Mike just looked at me like I had just grown two heads. "What?" I asked him. "Nothing. I just didn't expect you to know how to play the guitar." I shrugged. "My mama taught me how to play during the summer." "What about your daddy?" He asked me. I shrugged again. "Mommy says he's low life scum and he didn't leave me, he left mommy." "I'm sorry I asked." He was looking at his feet again. "That's alright." Another hour later and we were being picked up by our parents. I saw mommy and ran to her. "Mommy!" I yelled and she bent down to pick me up. She lifted me up and put me in her arms, kissing my forehead. "How was school baby?" "Awesome. It was so much fun." "That's great! Did you make any friends?" "Yes his name is Mike." "Who is he?" I moved my body around to show that I wanted down and she put me on the ground. I looked around and ran to Mike. I grabbed his wrist and started pulling him to mommy. "Mommy, this is Mike. Mike, this is my mommy." I introduced them. "Mikey!" I heard a woman yell happily and Mike turned around with a big smile on his face.He ran to a woman and she picked him up and gave him a kiss. There was a boy right next to her that looked like he was maybe a year older than us. I saw Mike pointing to us and the woman smile. She started walking over to us. "Hi. Mikey tells me that Trinity is his new friend." She said. "Yeah!" I said happily and our moms laughed. My mom held out her hand and shook the ladies hand. "Hi, my name is Sydney Matthews. I'm Trinity's mom." My mom introduced herself. "Pleasure to meet you. My name is Vivian Fuentes. I'm Mike's mom and this is my oldest son, Vic. He's in first grade." She pointed to the boy. I waved at him and he waved back, smiling at me. After a little while of talking, Mike had to leave. I ran to him and gave him a hug. He was taken aback at first but then hugged me back. Then he left. We left soon too and I had a huge smile on my face until the moment I fell asleep that night. Mike Fuentes is my first friend ever.

I finished the bottle and then threw it at the wall next to me, thinking of the first time I met Mike.

Notes

Here's a picture of Trinity and Mike playing with the guitar. I saw this picture when I was looking for a picture to show what they looked like when they were 5 and I fell in love with this, so I included it into the chapter.

This is Sydney Matthews, Trinity's mom. (This is Emmy Rossum and she's Fiona from Shameless. If you don't watch Shameless, then boo you fucking suck.)


Can you guys also give me some ideas for memories. The next chapter or so is going to be memories with Mike. So if you want like their first kiss or the first time they slept together or even hung out after school together, just let me know. The help would be greatly appreciated and the people that give me the best ideas, I'll give a shout out to you at the end of the chapter. :D
