Life is a Long Road

Chapter 1

    I open my eyes, glaring at the morning sun as it comes in through my window. I groan out-loud, sitting up slowly. "Wake up Brooklyn." My mother says, opening my door. "I'm up Mom." I say annoyed, Learn to knock Mom. I get up fully, glaring at her as she stands there."Brooklyn why don't you change your hair for school? You know, since your new to your school?" My mom says, looking at me sympathetically. 

"Okay, Sure." I say, stretching as she leaves the room. She let's me choose what I look like, She worry's for my mental health more then I do. It's a Saturday Morning, So I can go to the store for hair stuff. "Hey Mom, Dad, I'm going to the store for hair stuff." I say, grabbing a sweater, putting it and my shoes on, then leaving. 

    I have a card, so I don't need to ask for money to use. I start walking to Fred Meyer, It's closest and they have dye, and a hair cutting place, so Why not. My hair is to my shoulders, but I'm getting it cut, Heck that. I get the sides shaved, and get it dyed blue. I pay and leave. Satisfied with my look, Not super satisfied in the rest of it. 

    I get home, seeing my Mom smile warmly at me, while my dad just nods sympathetically. I go to my room, putting my card away while flopping onto my bed. I look over, to see my window open. Confused, I sit up and close it. "Hey kid." Someone says, I turn around, looking at a monster before me. 

    "Who are you?" I ask, looking up at this monster's tall figure. "I'm your hormone monster, Cameron." He says, smiling widely. "B-but, Shouldn't I have a f-female hormone Monstress?" I ask, confused but kinda relieved. "And you really believe your supposed to be female?" He asks, laughing at me casually.

    "Well. I guess I never mentally thought I was truly a female. But I don't know what that means." I say honestly, rubbing the back of my neck. "Well, I'll teach you and take you through puberty with help." Cameron says, smiling happily. I smile back, "So what's this mean?" I ask, frowning. "Well, for starters your a male trapped in a in a female body, Your transgender." He says, Not being fazed. "Do I tell my parents??" I say, panicking.

    "Probably. Whenever your ready." He says, sitting on my bed. I nod, kinda understanding. "Your name is Blake, Okay?" He says, stretching. I nod again. Not gonna argue, plus sounds good to me. "But doesn't puberty start when that starts?" I ask, thinking I know the answer. He shakes his head, rolling his eyes. 

    "No, but yes. Not in this case, I had to start for you before you got it. We can get hormone blockers. And you'll need a binder." He says, sighing heavily. I nod, I've wanted a binder, I knew what that was beforehand. "Do you think I could get those things?" I ask, admiring him. "Yes. I'm gonna make you confident enough to actually tell them. But what day do you want to?" He asks, standing up and pacing. 

    "Tomorrow. Tomorrow is Sunday, So if it's before my first day we can change my name in the roster maybe? If they accept it, I mean." I say, sighing. He nods, sitting down and sighing. I sit next to him. "Will I be depressed?" I ask, flopping backward. "Yes, You'll probably be alot more depressed then others, It's not my fault. I know we will fight sometimes, but don't worry. You'll grow strongly." He says, chuckling happily.

    I smile at him, "Okay. Thanks." I say, laughing and sitting up. "I kinda feel confident right now." I say happily. He nods, "Go for it Blake." He says grinning. I stand up, leaving my room and going into the living room. "Mom, Dad. Let's talk." I say, sitting down. They nod, looking at me as I smile. "Mom, Dad, I'm Transgender. I am a boy. My name is Blake, and I feel I should tell you now." I say, feeling stress come off my chest. I smile, trying to figure their reactions out, sitting there.

    "Are you sure honey?" My mom asks, I nod. "Yes." I say, kinds annoyed. My dad sighs heavily. "It's the son we always wanted, right Hun?" Dad says, smiling gently at me. I hug him, and he hugs back. Mom hugs me and dad. "We will try our best Blake." Mom says, making me smile and giggle with them.

    I pull away, waving and going to my room. "They took that well." I say, hugging Cameron. He chuckles. "Yea, I knew that wouldn't go so bad." He says, laughing. "Thanks Cameron. I wanna go to bed or some shit." I say, laughing. He nods, disappearing to somewhere. I change into pajamas. 

    Feeling myself want to cry over my body. 'Already?' I ask myself. I hold myself and curl up in my closet. It's big enough for me to hide in. 'Why do I want to kill myself?' I ask myself, groaning inwardly. I can feel Cameron sighing in the back of my mind. I see this cat monster, grinning devilishly at me from infront of my closet. 

    I sigh, feeling empty. "Who are you?" I say boredly. He chuckles darkly, "I'm Fang. I'm from the depression division." He says, grinning at me. I stare up at him boredly. I can hear Cameron in the back of me, trying to turn me from Fang. I jump on his back. "Where we goin?" I ask, yawning. 

   He laughs, leaving my room. "We're going to the drug store. We're gonna get what you need." He says, making me nod, understanding. I just snuggle into his back as we land infront of the store. I notice he got my card, so He can pay if needed. We go inside, I look around, realizing I don't know what we are getting. 

    "What are we getting Fang?" I ask, yawning again. "Razor blades, Your gonna get into a habit that is bad but feels amazing." He says, pointing at the box of blades. I grab them, going and paying for them and leaving with Fang fastly. "Welp, can't hurt to try." I say, sighing.
