Faith closed his eyes as he sat at the park alone, he had his backpack next to him as he tried to clear his mind, it had been a few months since his parents had passed away and during that time Faith had done a lot, he had bought some tattoo's got his nipples pierced and discovered he was gay, one of the biggest changes was dropping out of university and getting a job as a cashier at a grocery store.
The teenager sighed quietly, his birthday was almost here and for the first time, he would be alone with no one who would know or care. Faith opened his backpack and slowly pulled out a camera, He thought to himself. The teenager pointed the camera to the dark Grey clouds, the sun was not visible because of it leaving faith feeling very relieved. After taking the photos Faith placed his camera away and brought out his book.
Faith looked at the black leather book that contained his thoughts, feelings and stories in a way it was sort of like a diary. Faith stood opened the book and began to write down
Ren, Hope & Despair
The story of a child who did not ask for birth, but was born anyway. A child that was raised by selfish & self centered adults, whose own siblings shunned him, an outcast. Ren never had anyone throughout his life he was alone and shunned, in order to survive Ren made his heart harder, colder and stronger. Ren stood in the shadows cold and alone always wanting the things he could never have. Throughout the years of watching in the shadows Ren's heart became frozen in ice, he had forgotten what it was to have emotions...to feel, although he smiled and appeared to be happy it was nothing, but an empty and shallow act. No one saw Ren or the pain he felt, the lifelessness in his eyes, no one saw anything.
One day Ren found a friend a fellow student named Hope. the two had hit things off splendidly, they bonded and although Ren had Hope his heart remained un-melted, The two boys became close and for the first time Ren had someone to speak to, someone who cared about him. The friendship between the two eventually blossomed into something much more. One day Hope confessed his love for Ren. Ren had found him self shocked and confessed to Hope, that he did not love him, and before he could explain Hope ran away. The next day Ren arrived to a school full of gossip, it was there he learned Hope had committed suicide by drowning himself in a lake. Hearing the news Ren wept in despair, his only friend, the only person who valued his existence had departed for the other side, death by broken heart.
Ren attended Hope's funeral to discover only Hope's parents were there, and that was only for a few minutes. Ren realized that Hope was like him in many ways, alone and unloved and just when he thought he had found love. His love rejected him. Ren despaired and wept endlessly, no one could understand his pain. One day the pain became too much. Ren borrowed one of his mother's kitchen knifes and walked to town where he purchased six roses. Ren went to the lake and pulled out the rose petals and held them in his hand, as the wind blew from behind him Ren opened his fist and watched the petals leave his hand and float with the wind until they eventually fell onto the water. Ren bent over and picked up the kitchen knife he borrowed from his mother's kitchen. "I am sorry Hope, if I was capable of love.... I would have picked you, you saved me, you gave me so much, now it's my turn I want to be with you forever, you died because I broke you're heart, let me break mine... so we can be together" Ren had spoken out hoping beyond all reason and logic that Hope could hear him. Closing his eyes Ren placed the knife over his heart, he felt the cold breeze of the wind blow against him and with one swift thrust agony was felt, within moments blood came from Ren's lips as he drifted forward off balance and fell into the lake. With one mighty effort Ren pulled out the knife from his chest and watched as the blood poured from his body and he sank to the bottom of the lake, as Ren sank to the bottom of the lake he watched his blood pollute the lake and after closing his eyes, Ren heard something a soft and gentle laughter when he opened his eyes, his vision was blurry everything was dark with the exception of a hand reaching out for him.
Seeing the hand had given Ren hope and with everything he had left he dropped the knife and reached out for that hand, reached out on that chance to be reunited with the only person in the world who knew and understood the real Ren. This is the story of a child who did not ask for birth, who was alone, but was given salvation by a glimmer of hope, and once hope was lost he despaired he was consumed by eternal darkness.
Written by Faith Porter.
The teenager closed the book and placed it in his bag, he thought about the story he had wrote and wondered how his parents would have reacted if they knew he was gay, he knew his parents were never the fan of the gays, but still faith wish he knew if it was something they could have eventually accepted.
Faith picked himself up, he picked up his bag and began to walk not noticing that his leather black book had fallen out of his bag and onto the grass, as he slowly walked Faith eventually made it out of the park and onto the pathway of the streets where he began to walk quietly. alone

Rosalie had found herself at Port Angeles again. The destination was soon becoming a favorite of hers. Jasper loathed the fact that she liked being so far away from the sleepy little town of Forks, but she adored it. The drive gave her a chance to enjoy a trip out in her M3 listening to the music blaring, and the shops were excellent. Not as good as the shops in Rochester that had all the top of the line looks, straight off the runway, but Port Angeles was a million times better than Forks.
Rosalie had went into a few stores and found nothing but a purse to buy. The purse was gorgeous, a faux leather studded Marc Jacobs that had called her name from the moment she came into the store. She had wandered around a few others, but nothing had caught her eye. It hadn't been long since she had been here and met Kelsey in a shoe store.
Rosalie had walked to her car and put her new purse in the trunk. She debated on going home, but decided Forks was too boring and decided to stick around the Port instead. Rosalie had grabbed a soft pretzel from one of the shops and wandered to the park while eating it. At the park was the same usual scene that could be found anywhere in the world: kids playing, dogs barking, adults gossiping, people running and a boy writing.
Rose finished the pretzel and decided to pick out something for Jasper. His wardrobe was becoming more and more " Forks like" and she hated it. Rose headed towards the stores when she happened to notice the boy stand up and a small black book fall where he was sitting. The boy hadn't seemed to notice so Rosalie quickly retrieved the book and ran after the guy. She walked caught up to him and gently pulled his sleeve.
" Uhm..Sorry but I think you dropped this."
Rosalie held the book out to him.

Faith walked slowly taking in the sights. the teenager folded his arms with his backpack over his shoulder, he wondered what he would do today, the teenager placed his hands in his pockets, he felt so empty, everything around him was different than it was from before his parents died, nothing would ever be the same for him.
Faith closed his eyes while he walked quietly and a soft sigh escaped his lips [I always liked being alone, but lately there are times when I can't stand it, when all I want to do is just cry and cry and cry....I miss my family.] he thought to himself the teenager continue to walk and as he opened his eyes he looked ahead of him, he could see a nice cafe on the other side of the street, the young male continued to walk on towards the cafe and stores until he heard a beautiful voice. Turning around Faith saw it was a girl, not just any girl but a supermodel.
Faith was gay, and knew if he was straight he would have been all over her, he looked down to his black book and looked shocked "whoa" he took the book back softly "that was careless of me, thank you miss....could i repay you with a coffee." Faith asked casually.

Rosalie smiled when the guy turned around glad that he wasn't some sort of crazy person who would end up being sprayed in the face with pepper spray. The guy in front of her looked normal, and friendly. He was cute, and muscular which helped with the "good guy" vibe she was getting from him. Rosalie was about to murmur a welcome and walk away but then he asked her to get coffee.
Rosalie instantly had an internal struggle and she could practically see her twin glaring in disapproval. On one hand he seemed very sweet and she had nothing else better to do than go back to lame Forks. The other side though resulted in her twin being furious about her running off with a guy who she didnt know. Then again, it was just coffee and what Jasper didn't know wouldn't hurt him. Rosalie smiled happily
" Sure, thanks. Although Im not from here so I couldn't recommend anywhere."
Rosalie glanced around for a coffee shop and then turned back to the guy stretching out her hand to him.
" Im Rosalie Hale by the way..."

(ooc// hope you don't mind me joining)
Shopping. It was one thing Edward certainly wasn't fond of, and one thing he wouldn't do out of his own free will. In fact Carlisle has insisted that he go shopping, as neither he nor Emmett were available it was left down to Edward, who had to go food shopping of all shopping. The very idea of it sent a sicking sensation crawling through his body, the one shop he loathed going in he had no choice in the matter why did they even need food none of them ate it. Yet Carlisle commented that it was simply to keep up appearances. Pulling up into the parking lot, beside the park, having driven past the mall to see that every spot had been taken, Edward had decided that here was about as close as he was going to get within rage. Edward cut the soft purr of the engine. Port Angeles, it wasn't a favorite of his but it was the closest place he could shop that didn't require a long drive with queuing traffic, th one thing he hated was driving slow, and that slow consisted of driving below 80mph. Climbing out of the car he shut the door and locked it.
Glancing around the wide open space the clouds had gathered and created a dull cover over the park, just past the park he saw the tall building indicating the mall was only across the park, with his jacket around his shoulders, he placed his hands in his pocket he thought about moving swiftly across the open space but noted he wasn't the only person in the park, considering the ominous looking skies, he was surprised that there was even anyone out at all. As he walked silently across the the park, as he grew closer a familiar scent greeted him, The blond, Rosalie he had seen her briefly at school, she seemed to recently be talking to Emmett on a day to day bases. None the less, he continue the boy she was with however he didn't know. Then again this was Port Angeles he didn't know everyone, he knew Port Angeles but that didn't mean that he knew everyone that lived there, he personally tried to avoid it at all costs.
As he drew closer, he was about to walk on past, but considering she and Emmett were close friends, he supposed he had better make the effort to be sociable, for he doubted it would be the last time he would ever see her. Moving closer, his feet barely making only sound he appeared behind her. "Hello" Edward greeted, to late realizing he should of really made the effort to make some form of noise he moved around her and came to stand beside both beings, their scents swan around him, yet he had hunted only the other night, so it affected him very little. However if it was Bella standing before him then it would be a different story, with his pale hands still placed within his pocket his gaze flickered to Rosalie he realized her perhaps owed he an apology for his rude behavior the other day, and the looks he had given her, as well as the others she had stood with. "I thought I should apologize for my rude behavior the other day." Edward stated, his tone was gentle and low, soft and calm, his whole appraised was clam and oddly relaxed.

Faith looked at rosalie, he had this feeling she was worried about something, the teenager smiled reassuringly and "well how about the coffee shop across the street, im not really from around here myself. I am from seattle, but im just passing through town on my way to Forks. He spoke with a smile, Faith watch Rosalie look around, and stretch out her hand to his, faith took her hand and heard the girl introduce herself as Rosalie hale. "It's a pleasure to meet you Miss Hale, my name is Faith Porter." he spoke with a smile on his face.
Faith looked past Rosalie and noticed someone stalking closer, he had felt strange about the guy [wow he is cute....interesting,but cute.] he thought to himself as Edward drew closer. He looked at Edward and could see he was reluctant about something the reluctance was clear on his face he looked constipated. The guy spoke saying hello to the blond lady Rosalie Hale, for a few moments he wondered if they knew each other or were dating.
Faith smiled and kept his mouth shut watching Edward examining Edward's posture, The teenage human could see the newcomer's hands were in his pockets, he appologise and faith raised an eyebrow the voice of the guy was gentle and low, it was calm. [He doesn't mean it....or at the very least he is forcing himself to do it....I can feel it....his body posture is also giving things away, his hands in his pockets, his facial expression the constant look of constipation.] Faith raised an eyebrow and looked from Edward to Rosalie, he did not know Rosalie, but he felt a little worried that things could get ugly if not handled right Faith placed his hand out to Edward "I take it you guys know each other...Well Mr stranger, My name is Faith porter, if you would like to join us for coffee your more than welcome to....that's if it's alright by you miss Hale" faith spoke with a smile taking a moment to consider her feelings

Rosalie had smiled a little when the guy said he was on his way to Forks. She hadn't met many people from the little town so someone else from there was a nice treat. Rosalie wondered if he would be going to school there, it would be nice to meet someone else who was new and going through what she and Jasper had to deal with. He looked like he might be older, but appearances couldn't be trusted, she use to be able to get into most of the 21 or older clubs in Rochester with just a smile.
" Yea sounds good. Im actually from Forks too. Not originally...my brother and I just moved but we're there now. Are you going to school there?"
Rosalie had shaken his hand and made a mental note to remember his name, Rose wasn't too bad at remembering names and she liked Faith..it was different..beautiful. Rosalie was about to comment on his name when someone spoke right behind her. Rosalie jumped a little and felt her heart skip a beat. It was one of those moments where you feel completely sure of your surroundings and then something jumps out from behind a door..total surprise. Rosalie was even more surprised to see the boy that she had seen in the Forks parking lot now in front of her.
He was handsome, completely unfairly handsome..for a boy. She had just gotten over the surprise of him being there when he had apologized. Rosalie wasn't sure about what he was referring to, she had only barely glimpsed at him and although he seemed unfriendly he wasn't mean. Then again she had lived in Rochester all her life, friendliness wasn't exactly on the top of the cities list.
" No problem. Really.."
She smiled at Edward and then when Faith asked Edward to join them if it was ok with her Rosalie nodded a little.
" Actually we haven't been properly introduced...we just saw each other at school one day. And no...I don't mind at all.."
Rosalie noticed the way his eyes were the same color as Jasper's, and the way his skin looked pale. The first thing that came into her mind was one blood chilling word: vampire. Rosalie didn't want to jump to conclusions but there was one way of knowing..he would feel like ice. Rosalie extended her hand to the stranger
" Im Rosalie Hale "

As he approached it was clear he had just intervened during the exchange, although he had no plan to linger around any longer then necessary, a simple apology then leave that was all it would take, at least that way, he would of moved back into Emmett's good books, whom constantly talked about the blond, although always out of ear shot of a certain someone of course. Usually Emmett would whine to him about how he wished to see the girl before him again. Of course things weren't that easy. As he apologized to the female, thoughts caught his attention. Frowning softly he ignored it as best as he could, well this would certainly be..intresting. Ironically many at Forks believed him to be gay, he could understand why of course, never socializing, always rejecting the many girls that had approached him over the past few weeks, just because a man, wasn't interested in a female at the current time, did that mean he was automatically homosexual?
Ignoring the most part of it, he focused his attention upon the female and his apology, although it was evident in her expression she had no general idea who he was. None the less, he had startled her that was clear by the racing of her heart and her sudden short shallow breaths. "I apologize for startling you also, that wasn't my intention." He stated I take it you guys know each other...Well Mr stranger, My name is Faith porter, if you would like to join us for coffee your more than welcome to....that's if it's alright by you miss Hale The boy suddenly spoke, tuning his gaze to wards the boy before him, Edward inclined his head, he was perhaps too formal, to old fashioned. The fact the boys thoughts only confirmed what others had said was a different matter. Did he really appear, constipated? the simple thought of this almost made him laugh, although he restrained himself all that slipped past, was the sudden crooked smile that crept onto his lips, tilting the corner of his thin, perfect lips. "She and I have only briefly exchanged glances, but I was rude in my response." He explained to the boy, his tone gentle and his expression calm.
Returning his attention back to the blond female, whom as he looked to her properly was attractive, certainly there was no doubt about that, but that was as far as his judgment would go. Her thoughts, however were that of a typical female, one of the many whom had approached him, he was certainly used to such attention, and thoughts, so much so that his simply managed to ignore the many thoughts that echoed in her mind. When she had clearly accepted his apology, he nodded briefly, acknowledging it. Actually we haven't been properly introduced...we just saw each other at school one day. And no...I don't mind at all.. Rosalie replied in response to the invitation to go for a drink to which Edward was left with the option to decline, which seemed the most sensible, yet however her next thoughts caught him by utter surprise. Vampire. Was the thought that echoed the loudest in her mind, did she know? He froze for a moment his jaw suddenly tensed, as did his posture. He couldn't decline now, it would make it too obvious and probably only make her possible suspicions confirmed?
Looking to her, as she extended her hand. He knew then her intentions, glad to have of once listened to Carlisle advice, he withdrew a hand. Gloved. Extending it without hesitation he accepted the girls hand and nodded, his eyes however met her and searched them, for any further clue as to what she may already know. On the plus side, perhaps accepting the invitation to go for a drink he could indeed uncover as to what exactly she knew. "It's a pleasure to meet you, I have heard much about you from my brother actually. I'm Edward Cullen, Emmett is my brother." He admitted before he then nodded and released Rose's hand and shook the boy, Faith's after. "It's nice to meet you also." Edward stated before he shook his hand and pulled it back. "As for your offer, I think I may well just take you up, upon that." He stated as he flashed another tight lipped crooked smile, although he was far from relaxed, if the girl knew something, anything he could well mean that they would once again have to move. Just when he and his family had settled down, and had even begun to create a life.

Faith looked at rosalie, and Edward and watched them both he kept quiet and let them speak, knowing it was not his place to have a say, he had decided on answering rosalie's question later about his reason for heading to forks. The teenager, however, found Edward Cullen to be very cute. Faith's heart skipped a beat when he saw Edward's crooked smile.
Faith found himself blushing slightly [wow what a cute smile it's so charming.] Faith thought to himself, he at rosalie and was thankful that she did not mind edward joining them, he wanted to look at Edward and bask in his beauty for a little longer. Faith smiled looking at Edward and shaking his hand, he was so suprised at how cold Edward's touch was. he wondered if Edward had bad blood circulation. "well that's excellent, I will go get a table set up for us...my treat." he spoke softly.
The teenager crossed the street and went into the cafe asking the sales lady to bring out some coffee & cakes and to give him the bill when it was brought out. Faith walked outside and sat at the table he placed his bag beside his chair. and waited for Edward & rosalie to join him. Faith wondered if Edward was gay, he had to admit the guy was pretty cute and loved his smile.

When Edward mentioned that he and Emmett were brothers and that he had heard a lot about her from Emmett Rosalie's cheeks went red. She had only met Emmett briefly but he had left an impression that had stayed with her. He was handsomely gorgeous and Rosalie couldn't stop thinking about him. The thought of a vampire never surfaced with Emmett, she couldn't see him as one of them, or maybe she was seeing what she wanted to see.
Rosalie waited for his hand to shake hers and was surprised when he had a glove on. Smart, he was very smart. She silently made a note to tell Jasper about the little secret of a glove for his hands...just in case. They had already figured out hats were the way to go in sunlight and long coats, but the gloves seemed like a light bulb that they had missed.
Rosalie smiled at Faith when he mentioned that he would get them a seat and she followed behind him. She was smugly happy that Edward had decided to join them and she wondered if he would eat anything. She knew it wasn't the best test because vampires could eat normal food it just wasn't something they liked. Still if Edward just sat there and refused then it was one more chalk on the side of vampire.
Rosalie didn't want to believe thats what he was, but what other option was there? She wasn't stupid she could see the signs that her own brother displayed but she couldnt help thinking...if Edward is a vampire, what about Emmett? She couldn't remember him eating at lunch but then again neither had she. She hadn't touched him...although she had wanted to. She had noticed that his eyes were a golden color, but that could be common..couldn't it?
" Ok, thanks"

Of course the boys heart beside Rosalie skipped several beats, and continued to pound frantically within the boy, Faith's chest. He frowned lightly although it was clear that Faith was beyond straight. None the less it didn't effect him all that much, he would take each step as it came and would if needs be, and if it came to it turn him down gently in the most gentlemanly fashion he could managed in such a awkward situation. The boy's thoughts echoed in his head, and Harry did his best to block them out, yes. Defiantly not straight. None the less after shaking the boys hand, and after the obvious permission from the female, Rosalie, it was settled that Edward was indeed going to join them well that's excellent, I will go get a table set up for us...my treat. Faith spoke, and Edward nodded his thanks and flashed another half smile in response, the boy was polite, he'd give him that much, so Edward simply owed it back to him to be just as polite.
As Faith went ahead, he followed soon after, although could feel the eyes of Rosalie studying him intently, how much did she really know? The whole aim of this little meeting was to find out just that, perhaps it was just a small coincidence and the girl was somewhat obsessed with vampires? It was possible after all, But it was better safe than sorry. With his goals set he crossed the small street with ease, and fluid motions, opening the door he held it open for Rosalie before he followed suit and followed both Rosalie and Faith to their table. Glancing around there were barely anyone there, if the girl had any suspicions, about vampires, he reluctantly decided he would have to at least have a coffee and a sip or two, that way he could hopefully get away with it without causing offense, he would take the coffee to go, and casually dump it into one of the many bins, that no no one would be any wiser.
Taking his seat, in the middle of the two, Edward removed the gloves from his hand and placed them onto the table, his hands were pale, long and elegant. He just hoped Rosalie wasn't all that observant. "So tell me, Faith and Rose. Are either of you from around here?" he questioned making gentle conversation his tone was soft and smooth, the door opened as another customer bustled in a light breeze stirred the cafe, causing his hair to flutter slightly, yet with that breeze the mingle of scents filled the air and surrounded him, he frowned and tensed a fraction. Yet another reason why he disliked cafe's and schools, there were to many scents, although he had his thirst under control he couldn't stop his natural instinct. Releasing a low breath, he waited for the reply of the two of them, glancing between them.

Faith sat at the table he looked at the two curiously and smiled, [wow Edward sure has an interesting style it is really good on him, i am actually a little curious about him.] he thought to himself. Faith looked as the two finally finally joined him. The teenager was surprised that the Edward chose to sat in the middle [Hmm interesting seating choice...nah I'm being paranoid OMG BROWNIES] Faith excited as the counter girl brought brownies and coffee, the teenager looked as the plate of brownies were lowered in the center of the table along with three smaller plates, one each in front of him and the others.along with forks were placed on the table.
The teenager took out his wallet and paid, he licked his lips [now brownies I'm going to be sitting right here and ill be going like this...nom nom nom...and if you get eaten its your own fault] The teenager Picked a brownie and started noming down on it, he loved brownies. The teenager ate quietly despite his enthusiasm for the brownies. he looked up and heard Edward asked a question. Faith swallowed the bite of his brownie his throat feeling a little stuffed "well I am from Seattle actually....Im on my way to Forks though" Faith spoke softly.
the teenager sighed as he thought about his family [mom and dad are buried there....and i have the house they willed me...i guess I will be alright..it just sucks having no family out there...to be so alone] the boy suppressed a sigh and decided to put on a cheerful facade. Faith looked at Edward he seemed to get nervous [how odd he seems to be inches from a melt down...wait i know this...i read it from the net when i was doing a case study....this is Ochlophobia the phobia of crowds....I wonder if rosalie has picked up on it] Faith placed his hand on Edwards he felt the ice cold touch and felt his heart skip a beat.
he didn't think about the touch at all, the only thing on his mind was helping edward. "Come on Edward it's ok...your not in a crowd of people, it's just Rosalie & I that are with you...just the three of us, see it's alright.." He spoke reassuringly watching Edward.
