PALE ONES

January 17th, 2005

Rhory had been home for five days now and he hasn't seen his father until today, rhorys father was a rugged French man with thick black hair and an even thicker accent.

He was surprised to see his dad when he walked downstairs that morning.

The two of them hadn't had any sort of relationship after rhory's mom left them. Before she did, they got along fine, they eat dinner and go on drives. The teenage boy felt his father blamed him for the leaving of his mother, but rhory knew the real reason.

Many times when his father was out and rhory and his mom were left home alone, he experienced one too many of her mental breakdowns, he knew she was mentally ill, he didnt think it was that bad.

In the end she went on a spiral and left in the middle of the night with nothing but the clothes on her back, a packet of cigs and a bottle of vodka, the two never hearing from her again.

shirtless and in his pajamas, rhory felt exposed in a way "hey pa" he said as he walked into the kitchen, crossing his arms to cover his bare chest "Rhory" his dad said as he read the newspaper, already in his police uniform.

The man looked at his son as Rhory walked past him "you reek of weed" he said and Rhory froze "I was at Macy's last night, I hadn't changed yet" he lied as he put bread in the toaster "mhm, keep lying to me and see where that's gets ya" he said as he dropped his coffee mug in the sink.

He looked over at the boy with a disgusted look on his face before turning and leaving the kitchen, a few moments later the front door slammed shut, causing rhory too flinch as he leaned forward against the counter, his breathing becoming ragged.

January 18th, 2005

Rhory stared at himself in the mirror as he was getting ready for the day, his eyebags had gotten worse.

Today was his first day back at school since he left and he was dreading it.

Macy would be there in about thirty minutes and Rhory was still partially high, which he decided wasn't a bad thing at all.

He grabbed a sweater and jeans from his closet and brought them with him to the bathroom, he turned on the shower and got in after un dressing, allowing the steaming water to run on his back.

After he was dressed and his teeth were brushed he walked downstairs to feed ladybug "hey lady" he said as he picked her up from the couch and walked her over to her cat dish.

After he filled it up he heard a car horn outside so he put his shoes on and walked out the door, his bag in hand.

He walked out the door and waved to Macy, who looked really happy

"What's up" Rhory said as he got in her beat up white car "I'm so freaking happy your coming back to school" she said as she pulled out of the driveway "okay so, there's this new girl named Bella, she's chief swans daughter" Macy said as Rhory just nodded his head along with her "and she's already been sucked into the 'I'm so popular group' so she's already a lost cause" She said in a funny voice, Macy continued to rant on as Rhory admired her with a smile.

"The Cullens are still as hot as ever" she said as she glanced at Rhory "yeah? How's Alice?" He said with a smirk and Macy blushed, she's had a crush on the pixie girl for years now.

"she seems good" rhory raised a brow at the girl "seems?" He asked and Macy nodded her head "you haven't even talked to her yet have you" he laughed and Macy whined "it's so hard to find the time, she's Always with her family" Rhory laughed at the girl and shook his head "coward" he said, the smaller girl hitting him in the shoulder, breaking out into a smile.

"Shut up your distracting me" she said with a laugh. Rhory grinned and leaned his head against the window with a content sigh.

Pulling into forks highschool made rhory groan "I seriously don't want to be here right now" the pink haired girl rolled her eyes at the boy and hopped out of her car.

Rhory opened the door and pulled himself out of the vehicle with a sigh, Macy walked around the car and wrapped her arm around Rhory, the two getting stares and whispers as they walked towards the building, both of them not noticing as they were in their own little world.

The two looked over at the Cullens as they walked by, the family conversing in their usual spot, Macy gave them a big smile and a wave while Rhory just laughed at the girl "your so weird" he said as he looked back at the Cullen siblings.

He'd always known who the Cullen siblings were from Carlisle, he's never talked to any of them, and Carlisle has mentioned a few of their names, though he couldn't remember any of them. He's also heard a few story's about their lives from Carlisle, smiling at the memory of the two sitting at the diner and talking.

Before he looked away rhory looked at the blonde boy, he looked like the same blonde boy from rhorys blackouts.

He looked said boy up and down and then he looked into his eyes, The boy was looking back at him and once he noticed rhory was looking at him he quickly looked away, causing rhory to bite his cheek "their cute" he said, looking away, Macy smiled at him as she looked his arm with her own "the cutest" she replied.

Each passing hour rhory spent in classroom after classroom, the more he was itching for a cigarette, and when lunch came, he couldn't be happier.

He met up with Macy at the schools front doors, the girls perked up at the sight of him, running up to Rhory and pulling him outside and around the building towards the picnic tables, sitting on top of the one next to the 'no smoking!' Sign.

Rhory pushed his hair out of his face as he watched Macy roll a joint, her tongue sticking out between her lips in concentration.

When she was done she held it up with a grin "ta-da!" she yelled out, causing Rhory to laugh.

She took out her bright pink lighter that had the words 'SUCK ONE' written on it with sparkly nail polish, lighting the joint, bringing it up to her lips and inhaling the smoke.

Passing the joint too Rhory, Macy laid down in the table and rested her head on rhorys lap.

As he was smoking he tilted his head back, exhaling a cloud of smoke.

He felt Macy looking up at him "why are you staring at me" he asked her "are you doing okay?" She asked him, making the boy pause before answering, "of course I am, why?" He felt the girl shrug "I'm just asking" the two went quiet as they passed the joint back and forth, macy throwing it away after the last puff. The air around them was cold and foggy, and when the bell rang, rhory felt relived, standing up after macy lifted herself off him "bye mace" he mumbled before walking towards the building.

There was one thing about rhory was that he hated when people asked about his feelings and emotions, he hated speaking about the way he felt, how his brain operated, i mean, he hated knowing about the thoughts in his brain, why would he let other people in?

Rhorys next class was french, which he knew would be fairly easy.

When he walked in there was barely any one in the classroom, so he made his way towards the back and sat at an empty two person table, dropping his bag on the floor he sighed, closing his eyes.

While seated, rhorys leg began to shake and without realizing he began to pick at his nails. When he realized he tucked his hands under his thighs took a deep breath, he contemplated leaving, going to sit in the schools library until the last bell rang, then meeting up with macy at her car like they always do.

Before he could decide, his body all of a sudden felt calm, a pleasant feeling taking over for the anxiousness. After waiting a moment to see if it was just a flunk in his emotions, he removed his hands from beneath his legs and opted for leaning back into the chair, his arms crossed and eyes closed as he hung his head downwards.

As he was sitting their, breathing in and out, his ears picked up someones foot prints, when the smell of coffee entered his senses, he opened his eyes and lifted his head.

It was the blonde boy, he smelled of coffee.
