{•°THE BEGINNING°•}Eddie Greystone had been sitting on a strong and sturdy branch of a tree in his front lawn, back leaned against the trunk and a fag lit between his lips, his big doe eyes watching as his stuck up neighbor's walked on the side walk, with friends, with they're lovers or with they're dogs.
It made him sick, absolutely disgusted that these people walked around like they've never done anything wrong in they're lives!
The teenage boys who walked together were all bullies, ganging up on him, beating him to a bloody pulp for the simple fact he was gay, even though most of them were always trying to convince him to give them a blowjob or fuck in the very nasty and unsanitary bathrooms.
The old couples who would take a walk, hand in hand, would always stop to stare at him before quickly scattering away when he caught them, whispering to one another about how much of a freak he was.
And the assholes who would take they're dogs on a walk would purposely let go of the dogs leash, letting it run him up a tree, there was one time one had managed to get a hold of his foot while he was trying to get up the tree, and when his parents asked what happened they had told them he provoked they're dog, leading him to be grounded after getting back from the hospital.
The only person to ever understand him was his little brother, Alex Greystone, a precious little small bean who got all As in his class, the little boy would always tell him how much he wants to be just like him, spearing him in the heart and filling him with so much love and emotions that usually ended up with him pulling Alex into a hug while sobbing about how much he loved him and how lucky he was to have him.
So when Eddie had heard screaming from his house, it was no surprise he had run in, screaming Alex's name.
Running into the living room, he watched with wide eyes as his father leaned over his mothers body, ripping open her stomach, grabbing a handful of her organs and stuffing them into his mouth.
Covering his mouth, Eddie quickly turned quietly and rushed down the hall, grabbing Alex, who had been heading down said hall, and quickly steering him into his room, locking his door and turning to the boy with a panicked look.
"Eddie what's happenening-" "dad is eating mom" he said, cutting him off, Alex opened and closed his mouth speechlessly.
"What?!" He asked loudly, Eddie quickly covered his mouth before dragging a hand through his hair, eyes quickly darting to the door in fear, "ok...ok...um, I want you to pack a bag" he said, Alex nodded, pulling a dark blue backpack from his closet, filling it with things he needed, clothes, bathroom materials, a book to read and his diary.
"Ready?" Eddie asked, Alex slipped on his tattered shoes before looking up at him, nodding his head, nodding back, Eddie quietly opened the door, looking around the hall before leading Alex into his room.
Eddie closed his door and locked it, pulling out a duffle bag, he filled it with his favorite clothes, a toothbrush and an art book.
Looking around, his eyes fell into his electric guitar, quickly grabbing it, he ran his hand over it before shoving it into Alex's hands, "hold that" he simply said, slipping a pocket knife into his pants, grabbing a wooden bat and grabbing the keys to his blood red 1967 Chevrolet Impala.
"First we need food" he whispered, Alex nodded, adjusting the straps on his shoulder before hugging the slightly heavy guitar to his chest.
Slipping out of the room, they quietly headed into the kitchen, Eddie immediately began to fill the duffle bag with canned food and water bottles, "we need to slip past them and out the front door" Eddie whispered, glancing at his parents who were stumbling around the living room while groaning, Alex nodded, gulping in fear.
Grabbing a glass cup, Eddie threw it near the hall, the loud crashing sound attracting the attention of his dead parents, watching them head towards it, he quickly encouraged Alex to cross towards the door, following behind while watching out for him.
Opening the door, Alex slipped out, Eddie quickly tried to exit through the door but a hand grabbed him by his hair, screaming, he quickly turned around, bashing his wooden bat in his dead mother's head, watching with wide fear full eyes as she dropped to the ground, blood leaking down the steps of the front door and getting all over his boots.
Quickly shutting the door, he heading towards his Impala and opening it and throwing his duffle bag into the backseat. Alex gently set his brothers beloved guitar in the trunk, setting his backpack in the backseats with the duffle bag and climbing into the passenger seat.
"You ok?" He asked Eddie, Eddie looked over to him, body quivering, but none the less he nodded, ignoring whatever fear he felt, Alex nodded slowly.
"Where are we going to go?" Alex asked, Eddie glanced at him and ruffled his curls, "wherever the road takes us" he said, pulling out of the driveway and driving off.
Eddie's only concern now was keeping his little brother alive, keeping him safe from whatever hell they were going through, but at the same time, he wanted Alex to have fun.
"You know what..." He suddenly spoke up, Alex glanced at him with a questioning look, interested in what he had to say, "what" he asked.
"We should take advantage of this shit" he said, Alex looked confused for a moment before a grin spread across his face, "what do you want to do first?" He asked, Alex glanced down in thought before quickly looking up, eyes lighting up.
"We should go to the mall!" He said, Eddie smiled, changing directions to the mall he used to go to for his clothes and CD's.
"We can grab some wicked clothes, I need more black nail polish, that expensive shampoo, conditioner and deodorants" he said, Alex nodded quickly.
"Then it's settled!" He said, speeding up and whipping around a corner that caused Alex to laugh loudly, Eddie's heart filling with love and joy at watching his brother have fun and the ability to actually show his emotions that he usually hid away because of the bullies at school.
"This is gonna be so much fun! I love you Ed's!" He said, Eddie sniffed, eye's filling up with tears, "I love you too bub" he whispered softly.
