Synopsis

Chapter 1 - Chapter 1

There was once a 15 year old boy. His hair was a bright blonde and his eyes were as blue as the sky. He loved everything and everyone around him, even when he knew more about the the world. Though, something was troubling him from deep inside.

"Trevor! Earth to Trevor!" The blonde's name is Trevor. He was eating lunch with his friend and he zoned out thinking about something. Or, more likely, someone. "Huh- what were you saying-?" Trevor said while rubbing the back of his head in embarrassment. His friend, Hopper, said, "You're acting weird! Do you have a crush or something?" Trevor's face instantly turned red, and he looked down saying, "What have you that idea...?"

Hopper is a 14 year old boy with short brown hair with amber eyes. He's been friends with Trevor since kindergarten. They had small disputes. but they never got really angry at each other once. People say that they're jealous of Trevor and Hopper's relationship.

Hopper said, "Because you keep looking at the girl, and you've been daydreaming more often." Hopper pointed at a long haired burnette with a beautiful face. She had brown eyes and tan skin with freckles on her cheeks. Her teeth were like pearls, and she always smelled like flowers. Both Trevor and her were popular, which meant that their "popularity status" won't go down.

The problem is that he's shy, and there's something else. "Trevor! You're doing to again!" Trevor shook his head and said, "Oh! Sorry..." Hopper sighed and said, "Hey! I'll help you ask her out so you can finally listen to me talk!" Trevor tilted his head and said, "Isn't that kind of selfish?" Hopper said, "Whatever! Let's go! Right now!" Trevor shook his head, but he was already being dragged to the table where his crush sat.

"Vanessa! Trevor has something to say to you!" The girl's name is Vanessa. She loves to hang out with her friends. She's a bit of a gold digger, however, she'll love her lover with all of her heart, depending on who that person is. "Trevor? What is it?" Trevor was trembling in his shoes. His palms were sweaty, and in his mind was "Okay. You can do this". Trevor walked up to Vanessa and said, "Will... will you go out with me!?"

He kind of shouted, so other kids heard what he said and they were eager to hear her answer. Vanessa smiled and said, "Sure! I'll give you a try!" Trevor sighed in relief, and everyone at the table cheered. After school, Vanessa, Trevor, and Hopper walked home together. Vanessa had never met Hopper before, but his first impression made them become friends in almost an instant.

She does complain about him talking too much, but Hopper dosen't mind because it's true. When walking home, Vanessa asked Trevor, "Hey! Wanna come with me to the movies?" Trevor smiled and said, "Thanks for the offer, but I can't tonight." Vanessa sighed and said, "It's alright. Your smile is enough to make me feel happy for the rest of the day." Hopper giggled at what she said, and Trevor was blushing a bit at the compliment.

When they arrived at Trevor's house, Vanessa kissed him on the cheek and skipped away. Hopper lived right next door to Trevor, so he just had to walk a couple of steps to be in his yard. Hopper shouted, "See you tomorrow Trevor!" He then rushed into his house, and Trevor slowly walked into his. The house was as gloomy as usual, and the sounds of creaking from upstairs was as welcoming as rats.

Trevor walked into the kitchen to be met by his mother. She has short blonde hair with icey blue eyes. "You're late Trevor. Have you been hanging out with that Hopper kid again?" She said grimly. Trevor lowered his head and said, "No. I got lost on the way here again." Trevor's mother walked up to him, and smacked him shouting, "You stupid creature!" Trevor fell to the floor and she glared at him saying, "Filthy. Go to your room. Now."

Trevor got up, and walked to the basement, or rather, "his room". When he walked inside, sounds of baby kittens can be heard. Trevor rushed to the back of his room to a small box with a flower pot on top. He picked up the box, and saw the black cat he took in had kittens. One tortishell and one orange tabby. Trevor said, "Skittles! You had your kittens!" Skittles, the cat, meowed and started cleaning her torso.

When Trevor heard footsteps, he instantly, but gently, put the box back down and jumped onto his bed. His stepfather quickly came downstairs and said, "Why didn't you tell me that you were home!? I need your help!" His stepfather was short. He had black hair, and was balding from the top of his head. The only reason Trevor's mother married him was because he and his daughter had money.

His daughter's name is Gwendoline. She has long black hair with dark brown eyes. She's never home because she actually works, unlike her father. She's the only one Trevor accepts as family in this house. Trevor's stepfather grabbed Trevor's arm and dragged him outside without letting him stand. The stepfather threw Trevor into his mother's room while saying, "Find her snowglobe and give it to me."

The stepfather left, and Trevor went to find the snowglobe. He found it on a shelf, but right after he grabbed it, his mother stomped in and shouted, "Trevor! What are you doing in here!?" That made Trevor jump, and therefore, drop the snowglobe onto the ground. It shattered into many pieces, and glitteted water started to spread onto the floor. Some of the glass peices scratched his feet, but that didn't matter because of the pain that was about to come.
