A/N: Wow, this was actually originally posted July 4th, 2007. I wonder, should I rewrite it? It seems so... bland, compared to my many other works. I never realized how much I sucked, nearly a year ago.
Such Is Life
Chapter one – ImpudenceSora stared at the blood flowing out of his wrist, grimacing at the sight of open flesh. Small drops of red liquid fell from his arm and onto the pale grey carpet of his bedroom floor as he sat, leaning against the foot of his bed. Silent tears poured out of the young boy's eyes as he trembled, helpless and lonely.A small blade laid next to him, from a razor by the looks, blood staining the sharp edge. No, none of It's true cause I never knew you…And now, the truth of it is, is I want to be like you…The sound of his cell phone ring tone broke Sora's daze abruptly. The brunette looked over to his dresser where his silver and blue Motorola phone was, the screen blinking as it vibrated.So hello, good friend, I want to be next to you…From my head, from my heart, for it's true…His phone continued to play the song, Sora watching from the corner of his eye. He quickly got up, pulled out a few tissues from the box on the night table and snatched his phone, flipping it open. Sora started to wipe away the blood on his wrist and arm as he greeted whoever it was calling him."Yo, Sora here.""Hey!" A girl's voice replied, sweet and sugary."Hey Kairi, whatcha want?" Sora asked in his normal, neutral voice. "Oh, nothing. Was just wondering if you wanted to hang out and go to the beach." Kairi's voice said, coming from the receiver. "Well…I guess, I'm not really doing anything right now…" He replied, finishing cleaning his lower arms. "Really? Okay! Meet you there in 15, 'kay?" "Yeah, sure. See yeah."
"Buh-bye!" Sora pressed "end" on the keypad and snapped his phone shut. He looked back to where he was sitting but moments earlier. 'Shit...' he thought, 'I better clean that up incase dad comes in here…'
"Oh well…" Sora said to himself as he picked up the small blade, kicked some clothes on top of the blood stains to conceal them. Sora carried the blade to a jewelry box and stuck it inside, closing it again. For just a moment, he stood silent, staring at the pale box with a shimmering design on the top. There were two human sized fairies together; a man and a woman, and many smaller fairies were gathered near the two, watching. Sora struggled to peel his eyes away from it but eventually he left his bedside table and headed for his dresser to start getting changed.
A/N: I must say, please review and... do you think I should rewrite it? I don't know, my skills have greatly increased since last summer I just feel I could do so much better. Oh well, thank you for reading anyway.
