My name is Sollux Captor, and I just moved away from everything keeping me from falling apart.

I used to live in Florida with my two friends, Aradia and Feferi. I had a pretty easy-going life living with my brother Mituna until my dad came back. He made both of us move here, and it hasn't been the same since he burst into that door saying, "Hey douchewads, we're moving to New York!"

I shivered at the memory. I had never wanted him to come back. Ever. I shouldn't have gotten my hopes up, Mituna had said that eventually he would find us and make our life hell again. I should have listened.

I got out of bed, stretching. I walked over to my light, turning it on. I looked around, this was probably the cleanest my room would ever be. I had a flat screen with all the latest consoles, and two beanbag chairs facing it. I also had a supercomputer with a ton of wires connecting to it. That was my coding computer. I grabbed my laptop, deciding to check if any of my chums messaged me.

I sighed, getting up and tip-toeing down the stairs to the kitchen. I quickly grabbed a pop-tart before dashing back up stairs as quietly as possible and shutting my door. I took a bite, hearing my stomach growl.

This is something I don't want to get used to...
