I'd Be Happier Alone
I'd Be Happier Alone
Aimee-Rose Nightshade's Point Of View
There is a reason I am the Lone Vixen, I got this credential by serving only myself, And I have only one friend......... I had moved to Los Angeles, so When I arrived in Los Angeles, to the Apartment Block, I was allocated to, and the weather wasn't helping me much, it was raining a storm out there, I got into apartment number 16, then I saw someone Looking at me, can it be? No Way! This Dragon Friendship ring has led me to him...... can it be the one who gave me that ring back in our hometown we both moved out from? He looks to be 18, I am that Age anyway. I moved out of my Old home in Denver, from my stepmother's house, I could Not Stand her, she made my life hell as fuck, I Needed to get outta there! Living alone is my best choice, because, no stepmom to make my life hell, or no more of her fucking abuse. My apartment block number I was allocated was Apartment flat No. 16.
Ashley Purdy's Point Of View
I saw a new mover, moving in today, it looks Like a 18 Year old girl by the looks of things.... Red Glasses, Dark Hair, Brown eyes that looked more of a chocolate colour, she looks so familiar, mind you..... Then it hit me, The Dragon Friendship ring on her right middle ring finger, I gave it to her the day we became friends in Denver, Colorado. It was her, Aimee-Rose Nightshade! She moved to Los Angeles today, and I wonder what made her move in to my apartment block..... I need to ask her. Oh my god..., my poor best friend! she has bruises on her legs, neck and arms, must be her harsh living made by her stepmom, I knew of that already, every night back In Denver, she would show me these new wounds that her stepmom hit her with, You see, her mom hits and abuses my friend, and she is often left to cook for herself, and clean and fucking fend for herself every night as her stepmother drinks herself silly. Hey, She is approaching me, so I have to hug her, And calm her down, and make my old friend feel welcome to her new surroundings, and take her to where she needs to go, it is still school vacation, she'll be a senior this year, like me, so I better watch her back.
Aimee-Rose Nightshade's Point Of View
it is him! It's my old friend, Ashley Purdy! Man, I am glad he lives directly next door to me, as he lived in Apartment 15, he has already been here for a few good months, by looks of things, so I hug him, and he made me feel absolutely welcome to my surroundings. But having my only friend living here with me next door is a blessing because, now, I have someone watching my back, to avoid the bullying I would endure. He knows of my sexual Orientation as well, oh, so you know, I am Bisexual, and I would like no drama until I have settled in. I hope my bitchy stepmom doesn't come here to piss me off..... I felt a warm watery substance sliding down my cheek, I had not noticed that mentioning my fucking stepmom, got me crying, she made my life hell, and did I tell you that? My Tears got worse, so as the movers slid my boxes of belongings into the corridor, I slid down the wall of the appartment hall, and buried my face in my hands and cried in silence, causing My Friend, Ashley to notice and take pity and sympathy on me.....
Ashley Purdy's Point Of View
When I watched her as she hugged me in reunion, I noticed that she was crying, and I quickly reacted and wiped away her tears of sadness, and then out of the blue, she shyly smiles, so I gave her help to take in her moving boxes and helped her to unpack and settle in to her new home. When I helped to unpack, I noticed posters of Bon Jovi, W.A.S.P, Starship, Motley Crue, My Chemical Romance, Aerosmith, Evanescence and Guns "N" Roses, Those killer bands, I liked, and she likes them too. she had a PlayStation 2 and a few good action adventure games, like Sonic Heroes, Shadow The Hedgehog, Lego Star Wars, Lego Batman, Star Wars Episode 3 Revenge of The Sith, she had that as a movie, oh she has the entire Star wars Saga On DVD, And the animation, Star Wars: Clone Wars, and Star Wars: Rebels, and she had plenty of Japanese Cartoons and Manga books too! she even has hair dye with her, to top up her dark hair as well, eyeliner, mascara, and black lipstick, and her clothes are centred around the Victorian macabre gothic era, oh and for a gothic chick, whose my best friend, she also plays a violin, although hers is a semi-acoustic, She would play it to practice, she zoned out, and a flashback of her past starts her tears, the day her stepmom forced her to start going to violin lessons... Damn, she's so abused and unloved; I have a drummer who is single, but energetic as hell. If she is up for it, she can just access my apartment, if she feels lonely, I am there for her so, yeah, I am in a band with 4 other guys, she may open up to a violin player amongst my group of friends.
Aimee-Rose Nightshade's Point Of View
"Aimee, is that you?" My Old friend exclaims and asks me, as I got into my new apartment, Ashley was standing there observing my Moving boxes being taken into the corridor, man they cluttered up the hall, that's for sure. I said to Ashley, with a soft tone of voice and showed him the friendship dragon ring he gave me, "Yes, Ashley, it is me.... I moved here.... I had it up to here with my stepmother, she was..... So damn pushy, but... I can fend for myself, by learning to cook and clean for myself now, so I decided, enough was enough, and decided to move to Los Angeles and beside your apartment too." Ashley Smiles and Replies. "Welcome to The Los Angeles Heights Apartment suite, you’re living next door, so, call me if you need me, oh, 4 Guys befriended me when I moved here, and so, you're very unsure about making friends after how your step Mom treated you badly?" I nodded and replied "Yes, At least I know I really can trust you..... Ashley..." with that, A Memory of the day my stepmother forced me to go to my violin lesson last year, when she shouted on me like a servant to come from my room.
"Aimee! Will you get your ass down here and get to your violin lesson, now!" My Stepmom called me as I was a piece of shite on her shoe, she forced me to go to violin practice twice a week, this was her idea of getting me into the music business, as a classical violinist, but she knew she was doing it for her own gains. I cried so hard, as I came down the stairs, with my violin, and went to my violin lesson that night, and I played Mozart that night, the violin tutor was kind and he suggested me to call the police. I came home to a drunk stepmother, watching TV, And I showed her what I learned, but she said I keep playing it wrong and she hurt me both emotionally and physically, sending me to my room with cuts, grazes and bruises, crying while playing my violin to soothe my sorrows.
I came back to Reality, and felt a salty crystalline substance roll down my cheek; it appears that when My Friend bought up my stepmom, I had not noticed I was crying. Ashley hears me break down into tears, and he hugged me. then across the hall, one of his friends saw me, the mover moving in to Ashley's side of the complex, and he winked at me, I shy away, because I was insecure about meeting new people, knowing how I was bought up, Shy and introverted.
Ashley Purdy's Point Of View
I noticed that when I spoke of Her stepmother, she was in tears, after a memory came back to her, Now I see why she is so quiet, and not willing to speak to anyone except from me.... she had problems when she lived with Jocelyn, Her Evil stepmother. I hug my poor best friend, and with that, Andy, a friend of mine waved me over and winked at my friend in my arms in broken sad sobs, but she shies away when he winked at her. his smile turned into a sad face, as he saw the tears in my friends eyes as she shied away from him, I have to tell him that she's shy, and was let down by her stepmom, that's why she moved here. She reminds me of myself, when everyone called me a faggot or Emo, or that, and beat me up; she might be a new target come the first day back at school. So I dry her tears, and.... out the blue, I asked Aimee.... "Hey Aimee, considering the amount of belongings you have, Can I help you to unpack and settle in? Then we can set up the TV and Watch Naruto Together, you and me?" Aimee Nodded and replies softly.... "If you don't mind, Ashley, I would like help to unpack, and sort my things in their right places, and of course I can either cook or Order Sushi. I love ramen and sushi." I replied "Sushi, huh? Naruto and Sushi are a great combination!" Aimee Smiles that I loved that Thought of Sharing an awesome Japanese themed Anime and Cuisine night, as her treat for me as thanks for helping her to unpack.... So I grabbed her moving boxes with her clothing, and Hung all her clothing on hangers, and put them in the pole in her wardrobe, and put her shoe collection on her wardrobe's shoe section, and her winter trousers in her wardrobe drawer, I see her vanity table, how gothic, a Dark Rose vanity table..... just her style, yup, definitely, so I gave her make-up and hair stuff, and she lays it all out neatly in lines, her lipsticks are black and crimson, her eye shadow is black or silver, Eye liner, she wears the same eye liner I do, also, she sorts her hairbrushes, hairpins and Necklaces in her collection on her necklace mannequins, how can she be a perfectionist? She lays it all out in a perfect neat setting. "Ashley, Can you sort my bed, please?" Aimee Asks me, and I was happier to oblige, and I put her Black Rose Duvet And Pillows on her bed, She approves of my bed settings, and also put her violin in her living room, And she puts the toy dogs on her bed as a finishing touch. And we move to her living area, She had a loveseat, and a recliner, so We sort it out, and set up her decorative black roses and Black Dahlias on the windows, and I set up her TV And PS2, And I found her DVD And CD Racks, and Aimee puts her CDs away, and I Sorted out her DVDs and stacked her games next to her PS2 As well. She put her Rock Group Posters up in her room, and I finish her bathroom setting, she is all unpacked, and now, I said to her "We did it! You're all Set!" she says a shy Thank you, and she kept her end of the deal. She called up Wagamama, on the next block, and ordered Sushi for herself and A Curry vegetarian Ramen for me, my total favourite Japanese food, Curried veggie ramen. I Said to her "Thank you, Let me Pay for you, I want this first night of you moving in to be a special night." She replies to me. "I ordered enough for 3, invite one of your group over, And I wish to tell him why I am like this...." "Curious, are you? I am going to call up a violinist from my group of friends. You will like him, he's like you, he is quite shy, but when he gets to know you, He'll open up to you.... you will like the guy, I promise, Ok?" "Ok, Ashley, I trust you, call him..... I want him to experience a Japanese fun night in.... courtesy of myself...." Aimee Softly Replies, so I call Jinxx, a Close friend of mine, I even asked her to ready her violin, so that he can understand that I had another friend, who played violin as well. So as she practices violin in front of me, I hear the doorbell, and it was dinner, so, After the Guy left after I paid him, Jinxx came to Aimee's Door, and he is ushered in by me.
Jinxx's Point of View
it was so nice for My Friend, Ashley to invite me over to an unfamiliar new face's apartment for an unofficial housewarming for her, I understand that he told me about the new mover being a shy violin playing female, I respect that, she ordered a Japanese Dinner for 3, and he invited me over. I see a dark purple semi-acoustic violin on its stand. So I began to make an icebreaker. "Hey.... Ashley, may I ask who is that, who's living directly next door to you?" Then the female shyly smiles, and she replies "Aimee, My Name is Aimee-Rose Nightshade." and I introduced myself to her. "Aimee, I am very Pleased to meet you, I'm Jeremy Ferguson, but Ashley here calls Me Jinxx." She shyly and bravely told me her name..... Is she very shy or something? Though she feels a strong connection to me somehow. Ashley and I Discussed something, that made me gasp in shock, about how bad her life in Denver in the past was, with her stepmom. I was horrified, knowing I wanted to help poor Aimee, so as we ate and Watched Naruto with her, she ends up having a flashback....
Aimee-Rose Nightshade's Point of View
Ashley, Jinxx and I Watch Naruto, from Episode 1 as we ate our Japanese dinner, and man, Jinxx was enjoying his share of the Sushi I ordered for him, I am beginning to like him..... He seems to be a lot like me, shy, but open, but I am not so open though, as I was just a lonely girl looking for a life of happiness, no melodrama or trouble. Jinxx Asked me "What's wrong, you zoned out, Aimee, I see tears coming from your eyes...." I stood up, and said "I-I apologize, But, may I be excused?" So I went to my room, and fell to my knees, and began to cry softly on my bed, as another flashback came to me, this time, the time I had a guy named James Daniels, but he broke it off with me in the park just because I revealed That I was Bisexual, and beat me up, and left me to bleed, I lost that much blood, that I passed out and was rushed to hospital, by a Junior named Gerard Way, Who'll join us in California high after vacation, since he moved there to Sacramento.
I cried in front of my boyfriend, and he seemed so loving with me to begin with, he asked me "Aimee, what's wrong, sweetie? Why Are you Crying, sweetheart?" I looked up to him, and he dries my sad tears of hopelessness, and then I worked up the courage and then told him this: "Please do not judge me, my love, Promise me you won't give me any trouble when I tell you this...." He replies "Tell me anything, Aimee, I know what you will tell me is not going to be easy to tell me straight to my face...... what seems to bother you?" I squeaked at him timidly as I answered his question.... "I'm Bi, James, I am Bisexual, please do not judge..." He growled at me, and began to shout at me.... saying this "You can't be Bi! You have to be straight!" "But it is true, I am Bi, James" then James kicked me and punched me, hurt my ribs and a few ribs were bruised, and he went up to me and said to me "It's Over, Bi-Sexual Bitch freak, you and I, We're done, goodbye!" I was left to bleed, and cry curled up in the Park, why did he leave me, all I did tell him I was Bi...... Then a junior walked up to me and asked me "I won't judge, My Name's Gerard Way, I am going to get you to a hospital, my dear, Hang in there..... Aimee, is it?" I was being rescued by A Junior, how convenient!
I came back to reality again, as Jinxx knocked on my bedroom door, and I called to himsoftly and sadly, "Come on in...... It’s open, Jinxx...." Jinxx was really worried for me, and I could Tell, he had the look of worry in those eyes of his, he is so caring, and he bought in my violin, along with his, and asked me "Why did you go in here, man, you've been crying, what's up?" I replied in barely a whisper, "I had another flash from my past..... That gave me the chance to ask you..... To keep a secret from your other friends, that Ashley knows, and you should know..... I had a guy in the past, but he left me...." Jinxx was open and kind and asked me to continue.... "Please continue, Aimee, I will not judge you..... Why did he dump you?" Tears began to fall again, and Jinxx pulls me in to hug me gently, and my mind says 'Tell him your sexual orientation, it's the only way he'll understand why James Daniels left You, Aimee, It's now or Never...' And I decided it was a great time to tell Jinxx my sexual orientation, As I prepare to tell him, he brings out his violin and begins to play and to soothe my broken heart, and if I tell all to him, I hope He understands. I look up at Jinxx, he wipes my tears away, and I Reveal to him.... "Jinxx, My Friend, The Reason James Daniels Left me, was because...... I told him, I am Bisexual, I'm Bi, Jinxx, and can you forgive me for crying in front of you?" Jinxx just Smiled, and hugged me in understanding, and replied "I do not judge people, I understand..... you've cried for years over this, and you're opening up to me.... hush......" so he hugs me, then he left my room and told Ashley everything, and He respected my decision on being Bi, Unlike someone I used to know..... 'Damn! I just Quoted a Lyric from a song by Gotye, "Somebody That I used to Know" What was I Thinking?' I thought, and Ashley came in and said to me "Aimee that was a bold move, telling your sexual orientation to Jinxx, I thought it was good for you to tell your story to Jinxx, and Open up, and you did so, what a breakthrough! Want to come back through and Watch Naruto with us and finish your Sushi?" I nodded, It was fair, that Jinxx and Ashley comforted me, so I came back to watch Naruto with them, only time will now tell, how I will cope with school in 1 weeks’ time.....
Jinxx's Point Of View
Poor Aimee, She's quite a character, she had this flashback of when her ex dumped her after she told him she was Bi, And I feel sorry for her, when I healed her heart both with advice and my violin, and she told me that to get it off her chest, she rejoined our Naruto night, and I guess everything will be ok, now that she has both me and Ashley to confide in, when she needs to talk to us..... she is opening up to someone like me, and she is a pretty girl, emotional, but pretty, despite how bad her life in the past was. then I heard my mom call. "Jeremy! Come and shower, it's bedtime!" I yelled "Mom! I am at Ashley's Best friend's New apartment, I will be there in about 5 minutes!" So My Mom comes for me.... and she said "Oh, A New mover! Welcome to The Los Angeles Heights Apartment Block. I'm Jeremy's mother." My mom made her feel welcome, I told my mother "That's Aimee-Rose Nightshade, Mom, but she is very shy, you can tell she hid away behind Ashley, she is kinda introverted but, she'll make friends soon, I was helping her to settle in so Ashley had invited me to welcome her, so yes, she spoke to me." My Mom Smiled and Said "That's a beautiful name for a young woman like her..... Well, tommorow, is the final day of summer break, so come home and shower, and I'll arrange for you to head to the mall with Ashley And Aimee." So I Said goodbye and thank you to Aimee for my dinner, and went back home, Ashley then smiles, and went back next door, as he needed to shower too. And Aimee did the same, she showered, put on her PJ's and went to her bed, and she shyly smiles and drifts off into an uneasy sleep, knowing her move in today stressed her out, but she isn't that stressed at all, as Ashley helped her to unpack.
