The rain falls onto my head, mixing with the tears I shead... I do not understand. I am so happy, yet I'm crying? This whole ordeal is confusing. Perhaps I should explain first...

   My name is Bri and I am not a girl however, I am a boy. Well, I'm 18, so I'm more of a man, but that is beside the point. My hair nearly touches my shoulders and is a shade of caramal with neon-red ends and midnight-black roots. Do not ask why, it has always been like that for as long as I can remember. I am about six feet tall and have near white eyes, just bearly considered an ice blue and my skin is surprisingly pale.

   I have always been told I'm wise beyond my years, but I beg to differ. I do not think I am intelligent, but derranged. I was always at the head of the class, even skipped a few years. Meaning, I've already graduated from Collage...

'EVERYTHING YOU DO MUST BE PERFECT!!'

   Her voice still rings in my head like a wasp that will not go away... Even though she is dead... Even though I killed her...

   She, meaning my Mother, whose name is Jacelyn, always wanted "perfection". She told me that she only wanted what was best for me but I knew what she meant... What was best for her... She could have done anything. She was very pretty, having beach-blonde hair, near-black eyes, and skin slightly darker then mine... Very pretty indeed...

   My father left as soon as he knew my Mother was pregnant. Hmph... I was told that he had shart chocolate-brown hair, forest green eyes, and tanned skin. I never intend to meet him. Ever. Unles he wishes the same fate upon him as that of Mother...

     ~*~*~Earlier That Day~*~*~

   The sound of the slap echoed off the walls of their small apartment in the three story walk-up. Bri moved his hand to cover his cheek and pulled it away... He was bleeding...

"You little cunt! You'd better stay the fuck away from that,that... THING before I deal with it myself!" Jacelyn screached at her son, him staying quiet. "Do you hear me!?! YOU ARE NEVER TO SEE HIM AGAIN!!!"

   Bri had never felt this pissed off before in his life. And at his Mother! But insulting his one love did that.

   Awri, the boy in question, was away at his house. {At least he is safe there...} Thought Bri. Awri was the only one that had accepted him, loved him... Bri though of his quiet nature. His delicate build, sea-green eyes, and blonde hair with black streaks. At least he was safe...

   Jocelyn kept insulting Bri and Awri until she told--no, screached at him--to make supper for her. Bri walked to the kitchen and started boiling some water for God-knows-what. After setting the stove to the correct temperature, he turned around and came face-to-face with the knife set they owned.

   Without a second thought, Bri grabbed the two biggest knives from the wooden block and walked out to stand behind his Mother, who was sitting on the sofa, watching the O.C. He then put the knives around her throat as she gasped at the cold metal against her skin. She turned her head a bit to look at her son whom held the knives. His expression was dead. He did not feel like taking her crap anymore.

"B-bri, yo-u woul-dn't..."She stuttered. In Bri's hands, the knive pulled closer and sliced her throat as she screamed in pain and horror. Bri had simply decapitated her and dropped the knives on the floor, finally realizing that he might be caught like this... {Shit!}

   He did his best to hide any evidence that he had killed her. And strangely, he did not regret it one bit... After cleaning his tracks, he walked out with a back-pack of clothes,food,and water. He then walked out into the rain, walking to Awri's house...

     ~*~*~Normal Time~*~*~

   Bri han finally arrived at the giant house that Awri lived in with a few maids and butlers. Yes, Awri was from a wealthy family, unlike Bri. In Bri's eyes, he was perfect. In every way... After knocking on the door, Bri was surprised to find Awri answered it.

"Bri? Why are you here,is everything alright?" Came Awri's soft voice. The one that made Bri melt...

"Yes, I was... Just wondering if I could stay with you for a little while..?"

"You know you are welcome here,but... What about your Mom? Won't she mind?"

"No, she won't mind"

"All right... Please, come in."Awri gestured to Bri that it was safe to come in.

   But before he went in, Bri caught Awri in a sweet, short kiss.God, how Bri loved him. "Thank you" Was all he said with a sweet smile, making Awri blush.

"Uh-uhm...No problem...Now,I'll show you to where you can stay..."
