I feel trapped, suffocated in a bird's cage. Why was I born into this family?.. I shouldn't even exist to begin with it..  Eyes staring at me from every direction, whispers, crying. It's driving me insane!

October 1st, my birthday..And the day of my mother's funeral...Which is today of course. Is this a happy birthday gift from you, mom? She laid there in her white coffin filled with a mixture of red, white, & black roses. Why did you leave? Why did you leave me on this messed up earth..No..

Why did you bring me to this earth, instead? I guess I won't know the answer anymore since you aren't here anymore.

"Act sad." Father demands whispering to my ear. I couldn't feel anything. My emotions couldn't come out, was I still shocked?

I stared at her, she peacefully laid there without a thought or a worry to cross her mind anymore. No more glass bottles to be thrown at her, bloody punches or slaps...She was gone & happy.

"Excuse me." A blonde lady appeared behind me greeting us nicely.

"Hello!" Father responds kindly.

"I'm Anna, Emily friend." Aka my mother friend.

"I'm so sorry that this happened. She was a wonderful person full of kindness." She begins to weep. I rolled my eyes, bullshit.

She began to slightly push both her breasts together with her  arm as she weep. It was enough to catch my father attention..He licked his lips.

"Shh, it's alright." He pats her back, and rubs it.

"Emily was a wonderful wife to have. Perhaps we can speak more about it in the back." He smiles and guides her to the back of the church.

He glanced back, demanding me to head to the car. Before I could go, someone launches a hug behind me.

"Luna, I'm so sorry."

"Eve?" I mumble. I turn around to find my best friend sobbing her life away. Her mascara slides down her cheeks.

"W-Why aren't you crying." She hits her head on my shoulder.

"I don't know." I stood there, emotionless.

"Where is August?" My other best friend.

"He's crying in the bathroom." I sigh.

I grabbed Eve hand, and began walking to the male's restroom.

"Wait, we can't enter there." Eve pulls my arm back.

"Who's stopping us?" I open the restroom door & pulled Eve inside.

"August?" I whisper. I heard whimpers and gasping. We turn the corner to find August on the floor crying his eyes out.

"August!" Both of us shout at him.

"I have to pee." He whines and points at the urinal. I look over at Eve, she looked back at me.

"I'm not helping him." She let's go of my hand, dashing out the restroom.

"Get up, August." I brush my hair back with my hand.

"She was so pretty." He whispers, staring at the ground. I stood quiet.

"Help me up." He mumbles, reaching his small hand out to mine. I grabbed it and pulled him up.

"Damn, heavy as hell boi." I mumble, he laughs.

"Wait for me outside, I have to piss." I nod, and began walking to the restroom exit.

"Luna?" August calls out.

"Yes?" I respond.

"Tell Eve to wait for me at the car."

"Okay." I respond back again, reaching for the door knob.

This didn't feel like a door knob.. It felt like a someone dick. I immediately let go and yanked my head to turn . My eyes came into contacted with a man chest.

Fine chest in fact...I slowly guided my eyes from his chest to his face. I was speechless. His cheeks were red as a tomato, I couldn't say the same for mine.. I bet mine were glowing.

"I-I'm sorry." I stutter, slowly moving back.

"Wait, watch out."

I somehow tripped on AIR, and fell back on to a wall. He then fell on top of me with his right hand holding himself on the wall.

"Omg, this is awkward." He mumbles.

WELL NO SHIT.

I could hear his breathing. It was calming..His scent was magnificent. I'm not sure if it's my strawberry shampoo mixing in with his scent, but it smelled like heaven.

"Are you-"

"Excuse me." I cut him off, and slid under his arm. Then literally sonic blast my ass out from there. My ears, it felt like it was burning.

I need air.

I walked out to the front of the church to find Evelyn, I need to tell her. I spotted her playing with a stray cat on the side walk, it was a little dark brown cat.

"Eve." I ran to her, screaming. She turned around, confused.

"I saw someone." I squeal.

"So? We see people everyday." She turns her attention back to the stray.

"NO, not that." I slapped her back.

"Ow, what then?"

"A handsome guy." I felt my cheeks blushing.

"No way who?" Eve giggles.

"Eve, are you ready to go?" I felt a large shadow hover over behind me. My stomach felt butterflies..I didn't want to turn around, but my body turn around anyways.

It was him..The bathroom guy.

"It was hi-" I get cut off by Eve.

"Oh! Meet my uncle, Luna." Eve smiles and points to him.

"His name is Valentine."

"UNCLE?" I gasp.
