_James POV_

In my life Ive always been surrounded by the finest and most luxurious things .

Anything i wished for was given to me at the snap of my fingers.

Anyone who looked at my lifestyle would think that I'm the most happiest man on earth .

If only they knew how broken my  life is and how much i envy their happiness.

                                             I grew up with neither one of my parents .No one ever knew the truth

of they died . The morning that my father was supposedly killed was a lie , when the man  that shot

the bullet at my father ,it didn't hit him it hit my mother . My mother had just arrived  that morning

at my fathers house to run away with him , but when she saw  the man ready to shoot my father she

jumped in front of him and took the bullet before it hit my father. My mother died in my fathers arms as

she fell back from the impact of the bullet's force. The man that murdered her shot himself  ,he was

too scared to face the consequences of his actions. My father went into deep depression , a few months

later he found out about me . My mother had left me in the care of her cousin ,Nick Carraway, I was

only a month old . My mother was waiting to tell my father that she beared him a child when the time

were right , but she never got the chance. My father raised me only till I turned one then he committed

suicide .He jumped off of the dock ,where he spent most of his time gazing at the green light , and

drowned.

                Now I'm at the age of twenty -one and I'm a billionaire . My father had written that i inherit

everything in his will . I'm living in the mansion that my father gave me  and i still host parties every

Saturday. Lots of people are always trying to talk to me  women trying to flirt in hopes that i marry

them , paparazzi always trying to get the inside scoop of my life , and business men always trying to

find out how  i gain so much fortune .

               I  bet you're wondering where I get all of my fortune from . I am a gangster, i participate in

the illegal business of bootlegging which means I smuggle alcoholic beverages .Such transportation is

forbidden by law , but it gets me the money I need .

              I guess you can say that I am a broken person  and I'm going to stay that way. I will

never  be a fool and fall in love .I wil never open my heart to anybody.
