Born To Be Somebody

Chapter 1

"When you were born the angels rejoiced and cheered that they struck a special, God decided to send you one of his gifts and leave the future in your hands."

Bright lights, gasping for air, crying, and strange cloudy things.
Where am I?
What are these things?
Why am I so cold?

Someone cleans me up and puts me in a soft bundle, and hands me to someone.
I stop crying, they feel familiar, when she starts talking I know. Mom, I love her so much. I was in there for so long and now I'm with her, it was nice being with my mommy. But I was ripped away, they took me while she cried and tried to grab me. I was shaken and almost fell, I didn't like it. I screamed and cried and tried to reach her, but I couldn't.

- 10 Years old-
I don't remember much about my childhood except what Mr. George tells me. He says that my mom didn't want me, and that I was a mistake. That I'm better off staying with him rather than going off to find her. I go to school now, I'm in 4th grade I love it so much, I don't have any friends because the big girls with the pretty clothes call me "dirty Mouse". Mr. George says that school is a privilege. Even when those girls aren't very nice, I would still rather go, than stay with Mr. George at "home". The only reason I love going to school is because during lunch I go to see Mrs. Matthews the choir teacher. She caught me standing outside of her classroom one morning listening to her play beautiful music, at first she was startled but then she asked me if I wanted to learn how to play like her. She said I could come during lunch and she'd teach me, so every time I come and see her, she tells me that I have so much poten-chul or something like that, though I don't really know what it means yet, I'm sure it's nice.

Tuesday Morning

"MOUSE!! Get down here right now!" Mr. George's voice booms through the cracked walls. I try to cower deeper into the corner. He's really scary when he's mad. When I hear the thumps of boots, I try to run out of the room as quick as I can. Being too late, he grabs my hair forcefully causing a yelp to escape from my mouth. He threw me onto the floor then pinned me down by his boot. "What's this that I hear about you going to the choir room during lunch, I thought I told you that you were prohibited from engaging in any and ALL activities. Going to school is privilege enough, yet you choose to disobey me and sneak off to join the fucking choir. HOW DARE YOU!" When I wouldn't stop squirming he pushes his boot deeper into my torso. "I'm s-sorry Mr. Georg-ge. P-please you're hurting m-me." I plead him to get off of me and let me go but instead of yelling at me he removes his foot, I don't dare move. "Mouse how do you expect me to just let this slide," He chuckles and pulls on his hair. "I'm sorry Mr. Geo-" A strong kick barreled toward me, aiming straight for my ribs and knocking into them with brutal force. "You will face severe consequences!" He spits as he tugs me by my arm and throws me into the closet, locking the door, I was left in darkness. Clothing falls carelessly over my aching body. That week I didn't go to school, I was left there for days without food/water with nothing more than a sliver of light to prepare myself for when he got home.

Sunday Night

I awoke from my sleep to a loud crashing noise coming from outside of the door, startled I began to call out. "Mr. George? Mr. George, is that you?" A small whisper told me to shut up before the door shook and there stood a strange man covered in black. I tried to hide myself under the clothing racks but he saw me. Reaching out, he tried to get me to come to him. " Get away from me, I don't know you. Please leave me alone." I didn't have the strength to run away so I just sat there looking at him with tear-stained cheeks and red-rimmed eyes. "Listen honey, you have to be quiet or you'll wake him. I promise I'm not going to hurt you, trust me." And from the look in his eyes I decided to trust him. He gently used his hands to dust the clothes off of me so he could get me out, when we heard a creak down the hall. His eyes widened and he looked at me as if begging me to come to him, so I began to push myself off the floor but became too weak to stand, falling in his direction. I knew that if I didn't get to this man I'd be in trouble. All of a sudden the clash of a vase was heard from Mr. George's room, the man scooped me up and held me in his arms throwing a jacket over me. He hurriedly ran towards the door, every step he took I could feel in my heart. Footsteps could be heard slowly treading the hallway, and when we reached the door there it was quiet. Then as the man pushed open the door, "Don't think I won't find you Mouse, you're worthless. Your mother didn't want you so what makes you think he will. You'll be back!" Mr. George said eerily. The man ran with me in his arms to a car and I cried not only because I was hurt but because he was right.

A/N So hey guys this is a nice cliffhanger here huh. This is my new story I developed this idea when I heard a song called Born To Be Somebody by Justin and yes I like young Justin Bieber fight me, it was catchy and cute. Anyways so I thought about a whole plot line I could do for a story based on this song title. However sorry Beliebers this story does NOT include JB. Soz, from now on I will try my hardest to update this story every 2 weeks, if that wait is just too long and you'll lose interest, then don't add this story I could care less. However those of you that do I appreciate you doing so and I love you.

Later Gaytors <3 (yes I did intend on writing it in that way)
