Tucker

He couldn't take it anymore, the lying, the sneaking out at night. He trusted his parents, and they trusted him. It broke his heart to lie to them, not just every so often but every day.

He remembered one time when he got back home after one in the mooring. His parents were furious, his parents were worried for him, but worst of all his parents were disappointed. They were disappointed in him, and they were disappointed in his excuses. After all how do you loose track of time when you were supposed to be home by eight, how could you have not seen the time go bye. Especially when you were hurt and said that you were fine.

There was another time, or rather a time when he broke his arm. Their was no getting that past his parents. Though it was obvious that they didn't believe him when he said he fell out of a tree. After all he was the 'weak techno-geek', why would he be in a tree.

His parents worried for him. It was obvious that they were concerned. They did tell him at least twice that he could tell them anything. That they loved him, no matter what. That they would help him, with any problem.

Perhaps, perhaps,…. perhaps that was why. That and so, so, so much more. Just so much more. Yes, that and so much more was why he did it. He told his parents Danny's biggest secret. That was why he gave up… because of all that, and so much more.

He just couldn't take it anymore.
