!Disclaimer!

I DO NOT OWN RENT! IT'S ALL JONATHON LARSONS! I'm just playing with the characters. This is mostly an AngelCollins Fic! Other characters will not show up until later chapters! Sorry the first chapter is kind of short, I just want to see if people like it before I write to much. Italics are thoughts.

CHAPTER 1:

My Only Hope

Angels POV:

"Get back here you damn fairy!" screamed my stepfather while my mother

cackled in the kitchen. Completely out of breath, I ran up the stairs

regretting ever leaving my fathers house. Wasn't it supposed to be the other

way around? Accepting mother and not-so-accepting father? I finally step

into my room and slam the door shut behind me. The lock clicks loudly as i

turn it quickly. My stuff flys everywhere as I push my bureau against my

door keeping me in and them out. Now a little bit about how I got into this

situation. When my mother was still living in Puerto Rico, she met a guy

names Juan Sulivan. They hit it off real fast until he found out she was

pregnant. From then on, until I was 10, it was just her and I. She didn't have

a problem with me until...until I came out. She made us move, claiming I

was just being stupid and that the atmosphere of the city we lived in was

getting to me. And now, here I am, in the U.S. I was pretty happy at first

because she finally met a guy who respected her and I. Even when I decided

to tell him in private that I was gay, he still treated me with complete

respect, even more respect than before I told him really. When I asked him

why, he said that he respected that I felt comfortable telling him and that it

must have taken a lot of guts to be myself in a town like where we were

living. I then told him how my mother made us move, and how even though

around him, she is understanding and caring and accepting, when he isn't

around, she yells, screams, and sometimes even hits me. She overheard our

little conversation and that was the end of it. She would have none of that.

She kicked him out the next day. Those were the days chica, those were the

days. The one good thing that came out of this brake up was, I still had a

father figure who loved me and now that he moved, if I needed to get away

from my mother, I could. Why did my mother have to marry a homophobic

bear with a bad fashion taste? Now I know why I missed Puerto Rico so

much. If I was having problems with my mother or her skanky animal she

called a boyfriend, I could just walk out of the house and hide in the depths

of the city. Here, I would have to jump, or so it seemed. This jump better not

kill me dammit. I look from my window to me closet as I made my plan. I ran

over to my closet quickly and I grabbed my oversized backpack off the door

handle. As I heard pounding on the door, I knew I had to be quick. I emptied

the contents onto my bed, knowing they were minimal because it wasn't

time for school to start yet. Running back to my closet, I grab enough

clothes to last me a few days, including some clothes for my natural pastime,

drag. My frilly pink skirt with my zebra striped tights, my lime green skirt

with my black top and two wigs. My black bobbed one (A/N: the sexy movie

wig!), and my curly blonde one (A/N: The 'Flawless' movie wig! yay!). I also

grab a box from the hidden top shelf of my closet. I throw it open, revealing

a wad of cash and my makeup bag. I throw both into my backpack and put

some change into my pocket, I'm going to need it for the bus I know I'm

bound to take. I take one last look around my room and grab special

notebook, my camera, and my diary. With one final glance around my room,

the clock blinks 11:30. I look on my bureau which is still holds the most

important thing. A beautiful pink and black frame with glitter and sequence

with a picture of my and mi mejor amiga, Mimi. Saying one last final

goodbye to my surroundings, I step slip out my bedroom window and into

the black abyss of night. It's my only hope.

A/N: YAY! I finally got a FanFic up! The next chapter, Angel gets to her fathers house and meets a certain someone (WEE! CAWOLINS!) PLEASE R&R! this is my first fic and I would really appreciate it!
