Something Personal

"I don't know...I guess I want to write something-" That changes the world?" Danny sneered a bit and shook his head, "No, not that exactly but maybe just write something that tells the story I want to tell" Sam took this in for a moment, her eyes wandering to the stoned street, "So what is the story you want to tell?" Danny shrugged, "That we'll have to discover"

Danny Douglas lives in Brakcen's Peak, a quiet little neighborhood in a rather peaceful suburb. He does his best to be the ideal child for his ever distant mother but often times finds himself questioning why his father ran away. He struggles with relationships and forming them, because of the social quirks he was bullied for most of his life and found himself steering away from social interactions altogether, that was until he met Seth and Randle. The two boys welcomed him in with open arms, and a hierarchy was quickly formed. Randle the rich, wise and timid, Danny being the lapdog and used for most of Seth's schemes, and Seth, the all mighty who was not afraid to give either a good beating for disobeying him. Although Danny feels he should leave he can't bring himself to do it feeling as though he'd end up alone again so he complies with their wishes and helps Seth wherever he can from using poetry to pick up girls, to helping Seth in threatening other people, to robbing, to homework and even giving out money to Seth. Danny had grown accustomed to this way in life, being up and down, boring then exciting that was at least until he met Samantha and he found himself drifting from his friends and having to decide between what he felt responsible for and what he wanted
