Chance was a nice guy.He was a good kid,who mostly followed the rules.Elementary schoolmhe was oblivious to everyone making rumors about him.These rumors evolved in 5th grade,to new heights.The rumors involved various things,like him dating people,him being gay,and such.This changed after a while when he met a new friend,who tried helping him through it,but partly,he was a cause of the trouble as well.He spoke inappropriately,and wasn't very nice to people.5th grade wasn't bad for him,but 6th grade was.6th grade was alot more of the things stated above,and he started to date his future Best Friend,Jennifer.She was a pretty girl,with long brown hair,glasses,and a pretty smile.She was nice,and stood up for what she beileved in.But,like Chance,she and her friend Shayla were victims of the same things Chance went through.In 7th grade,Chance decided he would homeschool,to try something new,to get away from it all.To be happy,for once in a long time.In 8th grade,he started to feel emotions of lonliness,even though he visited ChristianForums often.This would heal the pain of the lashoing tounges of the fellow teenagers,as he would help other people with their problems.In the second semester of 8th grade,he decided to go back.He liked this girl,named Leah,and asked her to be his Valentine on Valentines Day.She declinded,politely though.But,why she did it hurt him.She allowed her 'friends' to tell her to say now.For several weeks,he was sort of 'blah'.He finally perked up,after again helping someone with their problems,this time in rreal life.Two friends in his church regurlaly,trusting him with their words.He even went with them to Floydada and Six Flags,trying to get closer to them.This did work,as now they talk to him more.However,recently someone subjected him to writing a nasty letter to Leah,and signing it as him.He says he is getting it under control now.He has decided it's his life,and he's not going to let anyone else rule it.It's his life.It's My Life.
