Summary: Alley's life changes the day she turns 4. What happens when she must live on her own, but first she has to get out of the refugee.

Unhumble Beginning.

When two people fall in love there are certain things that should happen, but sometimes those things don't happen, making it harder for the people who are in Love.

Ashley Mardock sat a the table with her family. She was 18 years old, old enough to be in love and definitely old enough to be married. She had long dark hair that a the moment was braided to the side draping over her shoulder. She looked very elegant. He parents had tried to keep her sheltered and bring her up as a proper young women. Her grandmother on the other hand enjoyed shattering the sheltered ness. This annoyed her parents, but they couldn't do much about it. Ashley always enjoyed her outings with her Grandmother. In fact it was on one of those outings that she had meet Mike Trinity. They were sixteen at the time. The feel in love and well that's that…not.

Mike wasn't rich but he was sweet and he treated her the way she wanted to be treated. He liked her for her personality not her money. Ashley was introduced to his family and he to hers but the both didn't have warm welcomes. It didn't matter to them though. Each time she went with her Grandmother they found a place to meet up. Of course her Grandmother was look out but that wasn't the case and a particular outing that Ashley took on her own. One that had almost gotten her grounded as was for sure to get her kicked out but she didn't really care. She was too happy to care really. She had just turned 18 about a month ago and on the night of her birthday she snuck out of the house. Well by and by she became pregnant with Mike's child. When she found out she went straight to her Grandmother who was happy but also apprehensive do to what Ashley's parents would think.

Ashley sat there at the table waiting for the right moment to tell her parents the news. She was scared out of her mind but her grandmother would stand beside her no matter what. Her grandmother gave her a nod and a smile. This was her cue. She took a deep breath and let it out.

"Mother, Father, I have something to tell you…."

Meanwhile Mike Trinity paced back and forth down the street he had lived on most of his life. He'd just been kicked out of his house for getting the one he loved with all his heart pregnant. He's parents were furious because they didn't like the girl except for her money and they weren't married. Well at lest not yet that was. He didn't have the money but when he did they'd be married. It was alright with him to be kicked out though. He'd already looked for a place for them to live. He hoped against all hope that Ashley's parents would kick her out. He head up to her house and sat outside. It sound like her family was about to have dinner.

Twenty minuets later he could her yelling within. Another five minuets passed and Ashley and her grandmother emerged.

"Mother what are you doing?"

"I'm taking my granddaughter home with me!"

"You have no granddaughter."

"Yes I do!" She pushed the door shut.

"Come Ash let's go home." Mike walked up and took Ashley's hand mumbling "sorry."

"Well hello Mike."

"Hello Madame Mardock."

"How many times must I ask you? Please call me Tru." "Sorry Ma'am." They reached Tru's house and walked in.

Some months later Ashley gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. She and Mike named their child after Ashley's grandmother. Tru Mardock was thrilled to have this little precious angel named after her.

Tru Alley Trinity was born on a dark cold night. Her mother and father were living separately at the time. Immediately after she was born her mother had to get ready for work. Tru looked after her great granddaughter for the first six months of her live. She loved this little girl. Alley was a sickly little girl those first six months too but always in the loving care of her great grandmother. Her great grandmother took to calling her Alley so as not to get confused. Alley's mom did the same it made it easier when they were all together.
