Chapter One: Because Of You

Her hands grew weak, and soon loosened her grip with his. Then, she closed her eyes, and drew her last breath, as the pulse machine formed a straight line on the screen. Meaning she was dead.

He sobbed quietly beside her, her body so limp and pale. Showing no life left.

As the sun rose and sunlight streamed into his room, 16 year old Matthew Williams awoke from the horrid memory. If only he had placed the air mask back onto her face, before it was too late.

One of Matt's best friends, Ineza Garcia, who would be 14 years old by now, died in the hospital at night, 12 hours after she had a sudden heart attack, and was immediatly sent to the emergancy room. There, at exactly the stroke of midnight, she drew her last breath, and died peacefully.

That, of course, was 2 years ago. From this very day. 3 years ago, a year before the heart attack, Matt's father, Andrew, died from a lung cancer that he had. Unfourtunatly, his fighting wasn't enough. He drew his last breath on Matt's 13th birthday. That was the most horrid birthday of his life.

Now, everything changed. Especially Matt's mother, Julianna, who had a new boyfriend, Kevin. She was now no longer a loving mother, who suffered through her husband's death. She was a heartless woman with the mind of a mindless teenager.

The last time Matt had contact with Jackie was when Inez died, and she came to comfort Matt as he sobbed. Ever since her transfer to a different school, they lost contact.

I will not make the same mistakes that you did
I will not let myself
Cause my heart so much misery
I will not break the way you did,
You fell so hard
I've learned the hard way
To never let it get that far

Matt got out of bed, got dressed, and stepped out into the hall to find the air smelling like smoke and liquor. The mess wasn't cleaned last night. That meant Kevin was still here.

Matt scowled under his breath. He went back in his room, woke up Obi gently, linked him to a leash, and began packing his backpack and suitcase. That was everything. He wore his backpack on his back, picked up the suitcase with one hand, and took the end of Obi's leash with the other.

"C'mon, Obi." Matt said, "We can't live here anymore. Wanna go back to Boston, boy?"

Obi perked up and looked at Matt gratefully.

"Okay, let's go." Matt said, petting the dog with his leashed hand. He then let Obi lead their way to the door. Julianna was sleeping on the sofa with Kevin. An ashtray overflowed with cigarettes. Countless glasses were stained with leftover liquor. Several bottles of numerous liquors were scattered all over the table and the area of the sofa.

"Don't expect me to miss you, mom." Matt frowned, and walked out of the townhouse, and onto the sidewalk. He was careful not to get too near to the road. Ever since that fateful night when Inez and Matt's father died, he could never be too careful.

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
Because of you
I am afraid

Matt continued down the streets of New York to the subway station, where he caught a subway train back to Boston. The ride wasn't too long.

Little did he know, that someone he knew, was watching over him, in the same bus. Unfourtunatly for Matt, her nose was in a book. But, she occasionally looked up to check up on Matt. Either way, Matt won't be able to see her, unless she let him.

I lose my way
And it's not too long before you point it out
I cannot cry
Because you know that's weakness in your eyes
I'm forced to fake
A smile, a laugh everyday of my life
My heart can't possibly break
When it wasn't even whole to start with

When the subway bus stopped at the station of Boston, Matt stepped out, and continued down the street to where his old barn was. Too bad it was broken down, after Matt and his family moved out.

Obi whined when he saw the barn replaced with a tall apartment building.

"Well," Matt frowned, "Looks like we can't go back. We'll have to see if we can stay at a hotel or something."

Matt continued down the sidewalk, as cars sped past him.

As Matt strolled through the streets, he came upon a hotel. He took a deep breath, and stepped in. As he walked through the welcoming doors, it just reminded him of the dreadful night, when he rushed through the emergancy room's doors, and held onto Inez's hand until she died.

I watched you die
I heard you cry every night in your sleep
I was so young
You should have known better than to lean on me
You never thought of anyone else
You just saw your pain
And now I cry in the middle of the night
For the same damn thing

Matt checked in the hotel, and realized that he can actually live here. The hotel was old, but it had strange rules. He payed the amount, and found his room easily.

Closely behind him, the same girl from the subway train that watched over Matt, continued to watch him. Even as he began to unpack, and then she followed him back outside, where he decided to take another walk.

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I try my hardest just to forget everything
Because of you
I don't know how to let anyone else in
Because of you
I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty
Because of you
I am afraid

Matt strolled through the streets with Obi, and then strolled upon Inez's house. Her parents still lived there, grieving over the loss of their dead daughter. They never put anything else away in her room.

"Maybe I should say hi." Matt said to Obi.

Obi just cocked his head and stared at Matt.

"Think I should?" Matt asked.

Obi shook his head.

Obi was right. Seeing their dead daughter's best friend is worst enough. Matt turned, and strolled back to the hotel, as the girl disappeared.

Because of you
Because of you
