Disclaimer: I`m not a genius. I don`t own RENT. But I do own this nice glass of ice water. Bleh. I`m trying to be healthy. I deserve some kind of reward. I`m giving up sweets. I don`t eat meat, you`d think I`d be REALLY healthy.
**********PLEASE READ!*******************
Rue is 12. She was in the orphanage for 7 years. She had to be placed there after her mother ran in front of a car when she found out that both she and her daughter had AIDS. No one could find her dad. She was only 4. She was adopted a few times, but each adoption ended in disaster. Mimi and Roger a re a lil OOC, but wouldn`t they be? This about 5 years later. They aged, and became parents (Kinda...). I AM NOT Rue! My real name is Anna, Rue is a nickname of mine. (Long story. Don`t ask) I couldn`t think of a name for her, so she became Ruelie Angelise Davis.
Some parts are COMPLETELY off subject! General`s Matt sins....it`s what Rue is writing. It was in italics, but I was typing on WordPad and it wasn`t saved..
Mark and Rue both sat at the kitchen table. Mark was fiddling with his camera, Rue was writing.
Rue groaned. " I can`t get this worded...oops, that wasn`t supposed to be said out loud."
Mark laughed. "It`s OK."
"MARRRRKKKYYYYYYY!!!" Destany whined from the living room. "My home work is hard! Number 12 is IMPOSSIBLE."
Mark started to get up.
"The answer is 4." Rue yelled.
Destany huffed. "Thanks."
Rue rolled her eyes. "Your welcome."
*****************
The General pointed Matt toward a a room no larger than a storage closet.
"What`s this?" Matt asked shakily.
"My sins." The General said solemnly referring to the tens of boxes piled up.
*****************
"Past tense, Ruelie, past tense." Rue mumbled to herself.
"Talking to yourself isn`t healthy, Ruelie, It isn`t healthy. " Mark mimicked her.
"Hey! I`m the only one that call me by my real name."
"What do you have against your name?" Mark rolled his eyes.
Rue made a face. "I don`t know. I just like Rue better."
"RUEEE! Why are all of these note books full? Who`s Matt? Is he your BOYYYYFRIEEENNDDD?!" Destany yelled, taunting.
Rue ran into the living room and ripped the book away from Destany. " He`s a fictional character. Hasn`t anyone taught you to stay out of other peoples` stuff?!"
"Probably not, Maureen still goes through my stuff and she`s 25." Mark rolled his eyes.
"What`s this?" Destany held up a bottle of pills. "Are you on DRRRUUUGGGSSS?"
Rue rolled her eyes. "It`s AZT."
"What`s ZBG?"
"AZT. Keeps people with AIDS alive." Rue took the bottle from her.
"OHHHHH, you have AIDS?" Destany asked.
"Yeah." Rue turned to go back to writing.
She sat back down and no sooner than she wrote 2 words, her beeper went off. "Crap."
Mark smirked. "AZT break?"
Rue nodded, but bent down to finish her sentence. Mark stood up and got her glass of water. Rue took her medicine and went back to writing.
"Your sins?" Matt asked, wide-eyed and terrified.
"My sins." The General nodded.
Matt noticed that each box was labeled. Angie, Margot, Bella, Izzie...
Mark`s phone rang. "Jeez, I wonder if I`ll ever get anything done!"
"I second that." Rue smiled and went back to writing.
"Ahuh...Ok...I`ll tell them...yes, she took her AZT...yes, her homework's done...no, neither one of them broke anything...how old do you think I am? 5?...Ok...I love you, too Rog...weirdo...see you in a minute...hang up...I`m not having this conversation...shut up...bye, Roger...No, I don`t want to talk to Maureen...GOODBYEE!"
Rue laughed hysterically. "You have the weirdest phone conversations I`ve ever heard!"
Mark laughed. "I know, get your stuff together. Roger is coming to get you. Mimi and Maureen ended up drunk, Destany is staying at your house tonight."
"Oh, wonderful." Rue rolled her eyes. "I`m so glad I have my own room, WITH A LOCK ON THE DOOR"
"I HEARD THAT!" Destany whined.
"You were supposed to!" Rue countered. "Oh, and while you stay with us, touch my notebooks, you DIE."
"Liar" Destany walked into the kitchen.
"Oh yeah? I`ll bleed on you, you`ll get AIDS,and die a painful death. MWAHAHAHA" Rue smiled.
Destany hid behind Mark. "MARKY! She`s gonna kill me."
"If she does, you`ll probably deserve it!"
"Way to show favoritism, Marky" Destany glared.
"I don`t have a favorite, you irritate me. Rue doesn`t." Mark rolled his eyes.
"Woo-hoo! I`m Marky`s favorite." Rue laughed.
Mark rolled his eyes. "I`m sooo glad I`m not your parent. I don`t think I could take being around you two all day, everyday."
"Not necessarily everyday, our parents get tired of us: they send us here!" Destany smiled.
"LET ME IN!!!" someone yelled.
"Thank God, Roger`s here." Mark sighed.
Roger opened the door before Mark could walk halfway there. "MARKY! I MISSED YOU!"
Mark rolled his eyes. "You can have you little monsters back."
Roger shook his head. "Only the mini-monster is mine."
"Hey!" Rue yelled, realizing he was commenting on her height. "I`m not that short. This is as tall as I`m gonna get!"
Mark laughed. "Bohemian midget!"
"I`m not a midget! Midget`s are 4`7 and below. I am 4`10 THANK YOU VERY MUCH!" Rue laughed and picked up her bag.
Roger and Mark were laughing. Destany rolled her eyes and picked up her bag. "You guys are weird."
"Thank you." Rue smiled.
"Bye!" Roger laughed.
"BYE MARKY!" Destany and Rue said in unison.
