[QUOTE="VLAD the Destroyer, post: 7823165, member: 6803188"] Charlie had been up since dawn. Out in the woods like he was most mornings. It got him away from the house and his parents. He relished the peace and quite. He took a deep breath and raised the rifle to his shoulder pointing it towards the buck he had been tracking for the past half hour. He holds the breath just about to take the shot when the animal looks up and then bolts into the trees. Charlie curses, lowering the rifle. He sighs and then glances at his watch and curses again. He was going to be late. The boy turns, shoulders the weapon, and jogs towards home. He didn't even know why he bothered attending New Falls High anymore. He had turned 18 last month and wasn't required to go anymore. He knew he wasn't going to go to college. Not that he couldn't get in he just couldn't leave his family. But he still went, not wanting to admit that to himself just yet. Charlie broke out of the woods and jogged past his Pa's workshop. He could see the soft glow of a light on through the slightly ajar doors but didn't hear anything coming from inside. That meant his Pa was either still asleep or down in the bunker. Charlie walked into the main house and hung the rifle on a rack with several other guns in the mud room. He pushed his way into the kitchen and smiled. His mom was actually in there making some food. "Hey Ma, sleep well?" Dorothy looked at her son as if just noticing him. "Yes, Balthazar sang to me all night." "That's nice, Ma." Charlie smiled weakly to his mom. "I almost had dinner, but it got away. I'll pick something up from the store on my way home from school." Charlie grabbed some toast threw some eggs and bacon on it, wrapped it in a napkin and shoved it in his bag. "I gotta run going to be late for school. Try to remind Pa he's supposed to patch the Johnson's roof this afternoon. He forgot last week and they're getting really mad. If he forgets again they're probably going to find someone else." Charlie sighed knowing that his Mom would forget and his Dad would lose another job. Charlie was going to have to find time to do it himself on top of his real job. He ran out the door knowing he was going to miss his first class but had to many other things to worry about to care. [/QUOTE]
