A/N- Hey :) I've reposted this chapter and am working on reworking most of them :) The end is all that's really changed. Read again if you'd like too :)


What happens behind closed doors is supposed to stay there. People weren't supposed to know that Mommy beats me. My once clean tan skin is riddled with dark marks. Black, purple, green and yellow, painting my skin with Mommy's love.

"It's all your fault, you stupid bastard child!" Mommy often yells while she pounds her bony fists on my flesh. "It's your fault Daddy left!"

"I'm-I'm sorry M-mommy!" I usually scream through my sobs. Going through this for five years doesn't make Mommy's abuse any less painful. Being sixteen doesn't make me more of a man.

"It's your fault, you stupid leftover!" There are tears in Mommy's sea blue eyes, eyes identical to mine. "Why did he take your better half?"

All I can do is apologize over and over again and feel glad somehow. Mommy wanted Roxas.

Roxas, my twin, was a carbon copy of Mommy- sea blue eyes, blonde hair, smart, responsible.

I look exactly like Daddy. My spiky brown hair is always a sloppy mess like Daddy's. I smile like Daddy. I laugh like Daddy. I cry like Daddy.

"You'll leave just like Daddy and Roxas!" Mommy screeches, landing another blow to my face. "You're a bad boy!"

"I'll b-be good M-mommy!" I always try to reason with her. I will always do as Mommy asks.

I get straight A's for Mommy.

I come home after school for Mommy.

I live for Mommy.

By the end of the night, the alcohol has always gotten to Mommy. I always make sure that I tuck her in her bed, nice and warm, safe and clean.

The phone always rings at eleven twenty six p.m. I always run to retrieve it before Mommy is disturbed. I always whisper a tentative, "Hello…?"

Riku always answers.

"Sora, you okay?" Riku's voice is drowned in worry.

"Yup! She's fast asleep and everything's clean." I inform him happily. I've been a good boy. Just for Mommy.

"Sora… do you think you could come by?" Riku has changed the script. This shouldn't happen. "I… I really need to talk to you Sora."

"I don't know… she may wake up and if-"

"Either you come here or I'm going to your house. It's your choice." Riku's voice is hard, no room for arguments.

"Fine… I'll go there" I murmur into the receiver. "Come get me?"

"Sure," He sounds happy, relieved. "I'll be there in a few." The line goes dead.

Riku's old pickup truck rolls up in front of my house a few minutes later.

I stand in the entryway, anxious thoughts plauging my brain. What if Mommy wakes up? What if-

"Sora?" Riku's clear eyes are full of concern as he rests a tentative hand on my cheek.

"Yes Riku?" I feel my cheeks begin to burn as I smile. Riku can always make me blush, regardless of the amount of time we've been together.

Riku grins back and holds my face in both hands gently. The older boy brings our faces close, capturing my lips in a sweet kiss. I fall into Riku, letting him wash away the world.

"Sora?!"

Damn.

I push Riku away quickly, eyes wide as I stare up at Mommy's rage twisted face. "M-mommy,"

"You stupid fag! You're just like your useless father!" Mommy screams, charging.

I freeze, instincts acting as I dart away from the knife wielding woman. Mommy swings the kitchen knife as she gives chase, an evil gleam in her eyes. A scream of pain bursts from my lips as Mommy impales the knife into my arm. Why Mommy!

Riku yells, coming up behind Mommy with the wooden baseball bat Mommy keeps beside the door.

Mommy never saw it coming.


Sora huddled on the black couch, face buried in Riku's shoulder. The other memebers of the room are silent as they absorb the tale they had been told.

"Sora," The brunette peeks out of his hiding place as the speaker. The man's raven hair frames his pale face and calculating blood red eyes. "What became of your mother?"

"S-she was admitted to the same metal institution that Daddy was sent to." Sora mumbles, forcing a smile. "At least Mommy finally got to be with Daddy again."

"Why did they seperate?"

"D-daddy had this old b-boyfriend I guess that came by the house..." Sora looked up at the man with unseeing eyes. "M-mommy flipped! You should have seen her Vincent. She was throwing things and screaming at D-daddy about being a fag and about how he'd infect Roxas and me!"

The blonde nestled in the lap of a large red head nodded.

"I see," Vincent's deep voice rumbles from his chest. "What happened with your Father?"

The blonde shutters, gripping the arm around his waist as it tightened. "That is my story to tell I think..."
