Life at Seashore

Daniel could hear the sea crash with the shores and the squeals of eels from the distance, their screeching sound could be so annoying to him at times as they had to wake him from his peaceful slumber every morning and remind him that is a new day.

He tucked away his duvet from his body giving a deep sigh and standing up straight from the four-poster bed and listened to how the thing squirmed from his weight leaving it. 

He groggily rubbed at his eyes for any atom of sleep that was left in them. Yesterday he was so very tired and he thought a good sleep would be the best remedy, tho it was; He was feeling so lazy to get out of his bed and do anything but he had to that's if he would want to eat later in the day.

Daniel quickly disappeared from his room to the built bathroom outside the cottage. It was built with a bamboo stick. Grandpa and Daniel did the construction, they found the bamboo in the nearby forest, and together they brought it back and built the bathroom that covered from the chest to the mid-thighs. 

"That was enough privacy". Grandpa said clearly to Daniel judging he was the one who needed the bathroom in the first place to cover his sensitive organ. He was feeling vulnerable showing it around so grandpa had that made but even at that. 

Daniel felt he was showing too much skin. Grandpa didn't see it as anything judging they were the only ones living out at the beach, the beach was abandoned. It was said not to be safe for humans due to the horrors they have heard happen around the area. Daniel didn't care about the rumors rather he felt the beach was the safest place and the only one place he could call his home. 

After he finished bathing with the seawater that was as cold as ice, his skin was already numb to it and it wasn't as if he was complaining but at least there were times he yearned for a hot bath; like one time he followed his friend Jasper to the spa, the feel of warm water was something he never thought I will long for. 

Daniel ran back to his room and picked out suitable cloth for school, high school precisely.

"Daniel will you come down here this minute, you're late for school". He could hear grandma's voice from downstairs coming way up to his room.

"I will be with you in a minute". Daniel shrugged as he mopped dry his hair with the towel then quickly put a comb to his hair and began combing it while he stared at his reflection in the mirror.

Daniel was a regular cute boy as he likes to think of himself, he had creamy blonde hair, almost white. His skin was pale and he had crimson red lips. His eyes were gray, grandma said he got his eye color from his mother, too bad Daniel couldn't meet her, or he did meet her but can't remember how she looked like so was his father. Grandma said they both passed away in a car accident.

"You look good you know". Daniel thought to himself while he still stared at the mirror removing a few bangs that fell to his eyes and tucking them to the side of his face. He picked up the hoodie he sprayed on the bed reading liberty high as the inscription. The name of Daniel's school was liberty high and he was on a popular soccer team. He was a popular kid tho not coming from a rich background. He had friends who are wealthy and can be a jerk at times. What was I saying? Daniel's friends were total jerks, Daniel inclusive.

He ran down the stairs as he heard the old thing squeak loudly beneath his weight with his backpack strapped to his right shoulder.

"We need to work on those stairs before someone gets injured". Grandpa commented.

"Definitely," Daniel said taking the few slices of bread that were kept for him and a freshly cooked fish. He tucked the pieces of fish together inside his bread so it looked like a hamburger and made a big bite of it.

"Bye". He kissed both grandpa's and grandmas cheek before walking out the door.

"Remember to come back early...our supplies for fish are short". Grandma said loud enough to be heard.

"I will". 

Daniel walks to school every day, grandpa didn't have the luxury of paying for his school bus nor could he even afford a bike of his own to convey him to school. Surely he was late for school and he's going to receive an earful from Mrs. Norbert Marian and possibly detention for coming late to her class.

Daniel thought about ditching his morning classes then again he thought about it. If he ditches the history class Mrs. Norbert Marianne was going to have a word or two with the principal which they're going to involve his Grandpa and Grandma, he wouldn't want them to think he's skipping his classes thereby earning him truancy.

"You can do this man". Daniel pepped talked himself as he stood outside the door of Mrs. Norbert Marianne's class.

"It's better I go to detention than skipping the class and receiving the aftermath later". He added badging into the class.

"Mr. Daniel Walker, late for my class again". She furrowed her eyebrows in a frown.

"I'm sorry Mrs. Norbert, I had to help grandma with supplies". He lied daring the class to laugh at him as he took on everyone with a glare. They knew who he was and what they stand to get if they had made a caricature of him for making it to the class late.

"Mrs. Norbert he is lying, if only he wasn't slamming me between lockers then we would have made it to class on time". Simon said. He was a very weird red-haired boy with freckles that scattered around his mid-nose making him look so vulnerable for picking. Daniel enjoyed whenever he looked for the red-haired boy trouble, he made it so fun but he was now going to regret it now for bringing up Daniel's name, Daniel was going to make sure of it.

"Is that true Mr. Walker". Mrs. Norbert asked sternly, cat bite my tongue. Daniel was already caught in his lies and he couldn't lie his way out of it judging from his appearance of Simon, he had his best dressing ruffled in angles making him more believable than Daniel.

"Maybe a little bit". Daniel gave an awkward smile.

"Detention after school". She cut me shut and then went back to her teaching. 

"Mrs. Norbert I have activities planned after school". 

"You would have thought about that before acting like a jerk and a bully"

Daniel walked to his seat and sat down knowing he had earned himself detention and was going to delay the message Grandma asked...
