Chapter One- life as I Know it..
April 16th, 2008
It was raining outside, I love the rain. Its one of the most beautiful things that exist in the world, yet it's so simple. The rain sheds everything, my tears and even my pain. My life, as I know it, is a complete and utter living nightmare. I'm a "walking disaster." apparently, as my parents put it. Everyone I know hates me, probably wants me dead even. Its like a weight, getting heavier with each step I take until the weight crushes me. I'm beginning to get the that crushing point. I'm a outcast at my school and I've never really had an actual boyfriend before. I'm insecure about everything on my body, so maybe I am a disaster at least I haven't killed anyone. I've never fell in love, I could not even describe it to you because its never happened to me. My parents absolutely hate me, this I'm sure of, my mom could care less about me and my dad's never around and when he is, hes drunk and usually can't walk. He hits me and my mom, and when he doesn't hit me, my mom. Like a chain reaction, except I'm the only one who ever gets back up. No where I go feels like home except when I'm lost in my music or gaming. Writing music is everything to me and the only thing that makes me wake up in the morning. Maybe just maybe, I won't wake up this time.

"Cairie! Get your ass down here now!" I heard my mom's angry voice scream from downstairs, I couldn't help the heavy sigh that burst through my lips. I closed my journal quickly and made my way down before she started throwing things and destroying the house, knowing I would be the one having to clean it.
"What did I do wrong this time mom?" I sighed again, anticipating what she had to say, and knowing it was not going to be fun.
"Do you even know how to do anything right! I pay for you to go to this school, not that I even have to-"
"Hate to break it to you, but its illegal if you dont." I shrugged as she moved to grab the frying pan, like I knew she would, and quickly moved aside to avoid it.
"Whatever. I'm not gonna stand here and wait for a beating mom. I'm sick of your bullshit and the way you treat me. I can't get away from you so I'm just gonna leave." I turned toward the front door and took one begruding step,
"Where you going to go, ha. You don't have any friends, you're a worthless piece of shit. You can't do anything right, you're good for nothing and you'll never change the world. You'll never be like your father."
"I'm worthless, huh? Hey mom, have you taken a look in the mirror? Cause the only one I'm seeing thats worthless is you. What have you done today, mom? Sit on your ass and eat yourself to death. I can already tell you, he's not coming home. He's probably out screwing his secretary and definately NOT you. I don't know why you let him treat you like that, oh that's right because you're a piece of shit too! Next time you want to talk, make sure you've got your own shit straight first." I left her teary eyed and gaping. I had enough of her, she was the only who made me this way, its not my fault. She puts herself in these situations, not me. I'm just the bystander affected by it all. I couldn't even cry from what she said to me, well at least not yet. Maybe someday, I'll be happy but that day....its not today.
I walked around the for hours and eventually stopped at the place I come to whenever I want to escape from reality. I remember the wish I made last night, it's stupid to think I could ever escape from reality but hey I could dream can't I? Well, the place is like a little island of forest surrounded by suburbia. It was quaint and pretty. There was a small river running through it and the trees were like walls protecting the river. There were a couple ways to enter, but the one I always used was a well walked path leading in and the river eventually became a basin by the path with a drop off, creating a small yet barely there waterfall. There was cement block that I always sit on right by the water fall that you could see all houses and the trees surrounding you. It was my haven and heaven wrapped into one. It was where I came to think and pray. That place meant everything to me, granted it was extremely small but it was still mine and the only place that felt like home. Further down the river, the river thinned and was just barely running over the rocks. It was totally different than upstream because the river bed was completely cover with small shining rocks. it was very beautiful and just completely heaven. It was so quiet when I came there and I couldn't help but just listen to the flowing water and wind around me. This is where I let everything out. Sometimes the tears come and sometimes the don't. Today my tears decided to show themselves. Did she honestly think I'm worthless..of course she did. Iuckily I had my song journal with me and I locked my other journal up. Music just flowed out of me, so as I sat there crying to my hearts content, I came up with an amazing song.
It was about ten when I decided to come back home, I found my mom on the floor, drunk, passed out and there was blood on the floor. Great, she started cutting again. I helped her up and dragged her as best as I could to the bathroom to clean her up. Even she didn't deserve this. After I cleaned her and the kitchen up and got her in bed, I went up to my room. Clicking on the Tv as I turned my PS2 on, seeing the familiar green and blue lights I relaxed on my bed and got comfortable. The screen lit up and showed the man I could possibly love, who of course wasn't real...how pathetic I know...I sighed happily. Why would someone so beautiful not be real, oh of course! Because reality hates us fangirls. Something felt different but I tossed the feeling aside and began to play. I started a new game for some reason yesterday and now was playing it again. Besaid of course! For some reason, I was falling asleep while playing and I don't remember anything else.

"Ugh...." I groaned, the sun was really bright this morning and I wasn't about to let it win. While did my comforter feel like sand? I slowly opened my eyes..
"No...it can't be! I'm-I'm in Besaid! My wish-it came true?" I whispered in awe. It's more beautiful than the game could ever portray. I pulled myself up quickly and checked my clothes..still clad in my very revealing white tank top with Hollister written across it in pale pink and the seagull was gray and rolled up navy short shorts. They were just as bad as Yuna's black ones in X-2. My black fuzzy slippers were no where to be found and my hair was wet. Why weren't my clothes was the question. That's right! I was facing upside down and the water was only touching my hair. It looked even darker now, if that was even possible because my hair is a dark chocolate brown. I think its brings out my eyes..but thats just because of the contrast. I'm not pretty.
Well, I knew my way around Besaid well enough I should be able to get to the village just fine. I made my way up the structure by the cave and was walking by the first waterfall.
"Fiends.." I realized, but it was too late. Two coyotes were closing in.... 'RUN!!' I screamed in my head and did just that. I kept looking back to see them chasing me, until I ran into something rock hard.
"Ugh...." I fell back and then heard his voice...
"Woah! Hey! are you ok?" I looked up to see his beautiful blue eyes..clear as water on Besaid's beach. But before I could say anything, he was already rushing to my aid to defeat the fiends chasing me..
I knew he was strong but not that strong. Wow, hes so much more...HOT than the game! Holy-
"Hey, uh, are you ok?" I shook my head and realized I was staring and..he was staring right back! I forgot I what I was wearing so I had to look down again and blushed..something very revealing. He wasn't staring at me, just my clothes. I was still splayed out on the ground, no shoes-nothing. Suddenly, he stuck his hand out in front of me and helped me up. I was so short compared to him.
"Tidus...." I whispered softly as I looked into his eyes, which were full of determination, he drew his sword. He made it look so effortless as if it was so easy. He pushed me behind him gently as he lept into battle.
Well, theres the first chapter I hope you guys liked it! I'll probably update the next one tomorrow :) stay tuned!
