but it's kind of cool that I have , squinted eyes, distinct body language, cute chubby. c:
and my style blows yours away , unique.
so over - all ,There's always been something interesting about the younger of Los Angeles' Ledbetter's face. It's certainly not like your average mug and it's hard to say you've ever seen anything like it. This unique look Zeus Ledbetter possesses makes it easy to recognize him. The seventeen year old holds many facial features that are distinct much like his prominent jaw. It's always had a sharp shape but after puberty the edges got even finer and to be able to run your fingers across the thick bone is quite the privilege. Along the young boy's jaw line is exactly where he happens to grow his facial hair. For some reason he's never been one to sprout a thick mass of hair over night like some lucky men. Like most - Zeus just picks up a standard stubble that covers his beautiful face which he'll shave nearly every morning but sometimes he'll leave some scruff. All Zeus' major features are decently proportioned unless you consider his nose. He finds it to be a bit odd looking and the size of his nostrils really just weirds him out. The thing altogether has expanded across his full face for the most part and Zeus can't say he likes it the least bit.
As for his lips they're usually chapped and picked over whenever you're in the mood for a close up view. They certainly aren't the biggest lips but the bottom is definitely dominant in comparison to the top; size wise. Still no matter what size they've seemed to attracted many kisses over the years. His scarlet stained lips have received lots of contact but Zeus isn't exactly interested in kissing girls these days. He suddenly has adapted a gut feeling that his lips are unwanted. It's not just their cracked fleshy surface that isn't appealing to those around him but what's wrong with his mouth. Zeus is a smoker and has unfortunately been rejected on several occasions. Not only that but the stains cigarettes have left on his already tweaked teeth isn't something Zeus is necessarily proud of. He's quite ashamed of how crooked his teeth are and the gap between his two front one just makes it appear as if his mouth belongs to a child. It's not as if Zeus can't afford the dentistry it's just that the thought of sitting in that chair for hours having no choice but to listen to the scraping against his ivories makes him more then uneasy. It's a common fear in both males and females and Zeus doesn't think he'll be getting over it anytime soon. However he is scheduled to get invisible braces this coming school year so he'll be enduring his fair share of embarrassment.
There's something about Zeus' eyes that get them to be considered semi-strange. Fr some reason they have a squint to them and really aren't that large. However the pupil takes up nearly the entire eyeball and the white that shows is sometimes impossible to see. They're like a puppy dog's eyes and are a different colors in most lights. When out in the sun they come off as a nectar colored hazel sprinkled with flecks of green and gold. But usually when indoors, where Zeus has been spending most of his time as of lately - his eyes appear a deep dark brown. It takes awhile to adjust to the peculiar shape of his eyes and there's been a lot of remarks about his excessive eyelid. He often hears jokes about how asian he looks and it's not as if Zeus minds but it can get somewhat annoying. Plus it only adds to his immense amounts of insecurities so it really isn't good for the young man to get bagged on about his eyes. Zeus' eyes aren't something that you would look at and call cute, they take more then an acquirred taste to appreciate. Still, Zeus could care less. He's gotten use to being called a chink and always has a witty comeback for everyone whos prepared to throw such harsh at his face. Usually the talking is done behind his back though so he's quite oblivious to it all, not like he could give a fuck anyways.
Like many boys Zeus has his hair cut at a normal length. His dark head of hair isn't very thick but it's not as if it's disturbingly thin either. Zeus has never let his hair grow too long although it usually ends up growing fairly fast and he's found himself getting spilt ends assinated on a monthly basis. He likes for his brown hair to look stylish and usually puts product in it everyday. It isn't as if he spends more then ten minutes on his hair and fifteen is his absolute mazimum. He's used a hair straightener and has had to admit to this fact in the past seeing that he had a burn on his perfectly sculpted cheek bone. Zeus isn't homosexual or anything but the way he fusses over his head of hair seems like he is at times. It's just that the guy is so involved with his appearance trying to make himself look somewhat acceptable for public. One of the first things a person recognizes about another is their hair at times and if Zeus runs into one of these people then he wants to please them. Zeus would like to be remembered as having good hair so he makes sure he does nearly everyday. It doesn't look bad when completely flat but with a bit of mouse he can do wonders with his wave. After all volume can never hurt a head of hair, now can it?
Zeus is basically average everything. He weighs a normal weight of one hundred and fifty three pounds. However his weight fluxtuates between one fifty five - one fifty and sometimes will even increase to one sixty. His matabolism is certainly strange some days but he's basically always in the one fifty-five range. Plus it's not as if the guy weighs himself a lot. Just when ever he feels a big change in his lifestyle he'll hop on the scale but these instant urges to step on a scale don't occur more then once a month it seems. As for Zeus' height he's not the tallest guy on campus. His body isn't too long but it does strech out to be the size of the average young man. At the age of seventeen he's certain he's stopped growing and reached his full five feet and nine and a half inches. Even though it would be nice to be a bit taller he's good with the height he is. AFter all what really matters is the fact that he's taller then most of the females he comes across. He likes the shorties but the tall girls are quite appealing to him as well. Still if the girl is five foor nine chances are he won't even attempt to go after them. Amazonians aren't his thing.
Fashion was never really Zeus' thing until he started actually caring about impressing people. Though it may seem like he's able to achieve such a fantastic look effortlessly, it's taken him a bit of time to get to where he's at today. As a young boy, Zeus would throw on anything his mother purchased him. Through his middle school years he thought it'd be acceptable for him to go through the phase that every other kid his age was going through and pick out his own outfits while shopping. They all turned out to be simple quicksilver shit. By the time Zeus had matured at the age of fourteen he found the best thing to wear to make a woman notice you was a button up blouse. Those one that isn't too casual yet isn't exactly formal either. This may sound impossible but the boy's got it down. Such a shirt works well with anything from slacks to shorts. Shoes are something that make it all tie together. When going to a fancy party and wearing such an outfit loafers seem to fit. But when he's just showing up to school any old thing will go good. As long as it's not a pair of flip flops the guy manages to pull it all off. The only reason why Zeus has any fashion sense is thanks to his friends who gave him the best tip ever - if you wanna get laid, you gotta look good and mature. Wearing such an outfit allows this to be possible for Mister Zeus Zepplin Ledbetter.

blunt[/size] because, he speaks his mind.
sensitive[/size] because, he has more emotions then your average man.[/ul]
but basically, I'm ,
blunt .
As crazy as it may sound; some scientists believe and have " apparently " proven studies on how children are bond to develop the same personality traits from their mother and father genetically. It's certainly an odd thought and could obviously be argued in among the science community or anyone who's up for a good debate but between the Ledbetter's family of three it's apparent that everyone with in the walls of the lovely estate they live with in - all have certainly share one gene. Sadly, it's not a trait many particularly find attractive but to this family none could care about whatever your opinion on the matter may be. Since the womb, Zeus Zeppelin Ledbetter has grown into a strapping young lad and over time has grown into one blunt mother fucker. Whether you're interested in hearing what he has to say or not; chances are your ears will not be pleased. Many find the seventeen year old's blunt nature to be just plain rude but at leas he isn't lying through his teeth like most do around here. If there's something Zeus dislikes about you it will be the first thing from his lips. He's fearless when it comes to his words and often gets caught up saying some stupid shit and because of this he's turned off many a friend but does Zeus mind ? Certainly not. He's content with being lonesome but are the people around him ready to hear what he really has to say about them? Zeus doesn't hide anything from you and won't even try to cover up his tracks of shit talking. Don't like it - fuck off.
insecure .
It's never a good thing coming across a person with little confidence because it seems as if all they ever do is complain. In a girl it may come off as quite annoying but nothing's really worse then a pretty boy bitching about his looks every five minutes. Sadly one of the Blair Academy's most attractive happens to have quite the problem when it comes to accepting the obvious fact that he's handsome. At first it may come off as an act but over time you will surely see the the one thing Zeus Zeppelin Ledbetter hates most in this world is his looks. Society can - of course, be blamed for this corrupt body image of this young Ledbetter. It's completely molded the idea of everyone in Los Angeles needs to be attractive. Compared to what the boy sees surrounding him Zeus does not match the city's standards. Everywhere he goes for some strange reason all Zeus sees is pretty people and all that runs through his head when he encounters these bronzed babes is how horrible he must look next to them. There's never been a time in Zeus' life where he's felt completely comfortable with his looks after all - how could he be? His skin isn't half as smooth as most, the boy's got a set of the world's squintiest eyes out there, then there's that preposterous nose of his, and follow his face all the way through you'll not only see one hell of a of a crooked smile with some tweaked teeth but you'll also get a glimpse of his distorted jaw that happens to be far too prominent for his liking. As if Zeus couldn't find his face unattractive enough there's also the rest of his body he finds vulgar as well. Clearly - there's a screw loose in the boy's brain when he's so very worried about his build that he stops to squeeze his pudgy stomach at nearly every opportunity the boy gets. Of course, the city of angels has put an image in his head that even males now must be thin. Still Zeus does nothing for his face nor body not really seeing the point. After all chances are he wouldn't even make progress since it doesn't feel as if he's ever improved since day one in his sight. It's seriously one sad story having to watch someone so pretty pick himself apart but it happens. This side of Zeus can be quite painful to listen to him rant and rave about his insecurities. The boy has no idea how to take a compliment so it's best if people just not praise him for his outer beauty since the poor thing's apparently blind and visions are clouded beyond belief.
depressed .
Depression is a common thing for most American teenagers todays. This world is full of cruel things and such a young being who really is still in the process of developing and being forced into the midst of all these awful things can really fuck a person up. Zeus' depression unfortunately took a turn for the worse last December. That happened to be the coldest month he'd ever experienced. The winter's harsh winds hit the poor sixteen year old hard and seemed to linger even once the sky had cleared up. Zeus had had to suffer through shit like most people in Los Angeles that attend the same high school. Sure, the kid exaggerates nearly everything like most he's surrounded by but that's typical of every seventeen year old. At the moment Zeus has been stable for several months but that's only because he's forced to swallow several pills every twenty-four hours. It's not as if he has a problem taking his anti-depressants because they really have caused a smile on his chapped lips. It also helps now that life's been looking up for the Ledbetter. After all he's not locking himself indoors anymore for many months at a time but his attitude isn't completely healthy at this point. The guy's gone completely anti-social limiting himself to very few people. He feels as if he expands this number a melt down is sure to follow but you'd think at this point young Zeusy would be use to the things so he'd welcome them. Somehow this is not the case and Zeus goes on with his life the best that he can and finds happiness in the little things and usually the opposite for anything outside his new and improved comfort zone.
independent .
Independence isn't something someone should be given free range with their entire childhood but little Zeus Ledbetter basically got to do whatever he pleased as a boy. Both his parents worked full time and still do but the kid needed to be watched at one point. This never seemed to be seen as an issue in the Ledbetter's eyes and they considered their slacking Spanish house keeping nanny to be able to to do the job. Of course that only ended badly but at that point in the game Zeus had already received enough freedom already and his mother and father couldn't take it away completely. Since neither had any time to actually monitor the young boy's behavior he gained free range once more. This eventually led to him picking up three nasty habits. Smoking both cigarettes and loads of weed daily and clearing his head with a drink here and there. Zeus basically has very few rules and the ones he is suppose to follow like no smoking indoors don't cause him any consequences unless you count the five minute conversation he must endure from his mother, Petunia. It's only recently that Zeus has really milked this entire independence thing for all it's worth. Not only has he always been allowed to spend as much as his heart desires on a credit card but the boy has the ability to go off on his own with mommy and daddy's money. Even if he is seventeen parents in Los Angeles apparently see no reason to seek control over their children now-a-days. It's a bit ridiculous seeing that the boy spent his entire time away breaking laws and hearts while taking advantage of vulnerable females. For a seventeen year old anywhere else Zeus' behavior would never be considered acceptable by any reasonable adult. Highlighting his independence as of lately, Zeus has pulled away from many people and learned to live life all by his lonesome. Although he has one exception Lauren Piner's a must in this young love child's world but for the most part Zeus is content with sectioning himself off from everyone else.
mature .
Zeus Ledbetter's certainly not anything near what he is renown for doing during his past. Not at all. Since these days the unproper ways Zeus the Moose possessed have surely faded. In some people's eyes it's all for the better but to most they like the vulgar cynical act he played for most of his life. However - he's been through a lot and learned that how he was getting by is not any way to live a life. He's still uneasy on what way happens to be best or if such a thing is possible but for the most part he looks at things on the brighter side. This pinch of positivity has caused Zeus to grow out of all his old phases. Yes, he still smokes pot and participates in some leisure activities but for the most part he's grown up into a beautiful young man. He's much nicer now and can at least tolerate most. Zeus has learned how to handle most conversations and even if he burst out crying a lot this is only a result of his depression which springs up at random times. Zeus' secret to maturing ever so speedy was just five months away from the world. He spent the time with in his parents house in his old bedroom that he's yet to move out of. Still it helped the boy a lot to ditch nearly everyone he spoke to. Although his social skills are now severely lacking there isn't a day that Zeus will ever regret getting rid of these unpleasant people. Growing out of old friends is something everyone does and well - it really can help a person. Hence Zeus Ledbetter's achievements !
classy .
Being someone involved in such an important family in today's world Zeus Ledbetter has had no choice but to behave at his best whenever out in public. Of course he has never been one to necessarily follow these instructions but he's gotten through most days without embarrassing his family's name. Most children around these parts fuck up once or twice so if Zeus' name happens to get itself mentioned among the many adults the Ledbetter family is in touch with the adults can spit one of their children's names out as well and completely throw the others under the bus with out a single care. However - Zeus tries his hardest to remain classy. It isn't very difficult seeing that he was placed into many summer camps where he was basically forced into learning manners. The camp was for those rich stuck up children and Zeus fit right in during those days. Even if the seventeen year old participated in such courses so very long ago he's never forgotten a single rule to how to look good at a dinner party which is basically all that matters in his mother and fathers eyes.
hopeless romantic .
Never once while peaking through out half of high school did Zeus Ledbetter ever even consider the idea of love. The word always made him sick to his stomach and he could never stand looking at all the long term relationships his fellow peers were throwing themselves into. Secretly, Zeus would usually laugh his ass off whenever he heard them mutter those stern " i love you's ". Not a once did Zeus understand until he entered his first real relationship at the beginning of his junior year. It involved a girl and he actually spoke such sugary words to the beloved blonde. Of course that ended and it's only been recently that Zeus Ledbetter's grown a soft spot in his blackened heart. It's true - the boy's fallen " in love " yet again. Only this time it feels realer then ever. He's suffered stomach fulls of butterflies on more then one occasion along with a constantly flushed face, frequently using mushy gushy language, an increased pulse, and strange desires to pick up a pen and put down a poem. It's certainly been a strange experience for the boy considering this time around it isn't just purely a physical attraction. Zeus Ledbetter is prepared to do anything for his girlfriend in the past. He claims that they makes up his life and he even spends hours upon hours planning out special events for the two. He's seen enough romantic movies to know how to put a smile on the girl's face. No matter how cheesy they may seem in the end he can make even just a plain old snuggle fest a date. Seeing that Zeus has put so much effort into changing he's developed some amazing skills he never knew he would have. It's quite cute considering the past him. The flirty comment every other sentence is still a part of him but their usually only directed at his girlfriend. ( For the most part. ) Still the boy's ready to do anything for his girl and if he ever has a different girlfriend his new found respect for women will definitely be shining through wherever he goes and whatever happens to happen.[/blockquote]

the love life , zeus isn't too keen about what he's had to deal with in past relationships. breaking up tears him up ever since he learned what love was his senior year of high school. he hates getting involved seriously with anyone and is usually the one who waits around until he's humilliated and dumped. during zeus' time spent in canada he tried playing the field but found himself a special girl who unfortunately over dosed on him and had to be taken away to a rehabilitation facility to recover and by the time she got out she had changed far too much for zeus' likings and the spark wasn't there. he still feels as if he lost her as a person the night she ODed and considering that was a little less then four months ago Zeus is still quite heart-brokened.
& the good and the bad, Everyone always thinks that those with money must lead the best kind of life and they couldn't be more wrong. The case really is the people who have made bank are the ones who are forever fucked. In America money seems to have a curse and those born into it are always going to have a spell bound to their souls. Or at least that's how Zeus Ledbetter likes to look at things. Even if he's never been the most positive person it seems as if money can only buy you one thing and that's trouble.
In the beginning the boy's life started off completely fine like most of ours do. Being born into a family with money he of course had several more privileges then the average joe but he still was like any normal child. He played with action figures and was often spoiled with many toys and video games as a toddler. He still possessed his innocence as a young boy and somehow managed to be content with out certain things in his life which is surprising for a Ledbetter. Zeus was born and raised in the same house he still lives in today but wasn't allowed into half of the rooms until he reached the age of five in fear that his parents would lose him. The thing was neither his mother nor father paid the slightest bit of attention to him so chances are they wouldn't have noticed if he ventured off into these forbidden rooms. Some of the Ledbetter's restrictions for their only son were always a bit odd but he certainly could never be considered sheltered. Instead of getting to know his mom or dad as a boy Zeus got to get attached to his nanny that his parents hired. Another unnecessary accessory that his childhood had to contain. Most of his parents rich friends had hired their own for their children so Zeus' mother wanted to be like everyone else and when Zeus turned six years old he met Ms. Selena Guerro - a nineteen year old baby sitter for who son who would also get paid to live in their house and pick up after herself and Zeus each and every day.
Selena Guerro became a big part of Zeus' life as he entered grade school. He was forced to take classes on how to be polite which Zeus just thought was ridiculous. The boy was super smart and had such a high IQ in his early years. He could go on and on about the stupidest things so most of the time nobody really caught on. The truth of the matter was even though Zeus had tons of friends at the age of six books were his closet pals. Ms. Guerro noticed his interest in books and since she was like a second mother that year for Christmas she purchased him some classics from the Goosebumps series. Unlike most six year olds Zeus finished the collection when he was seven years old. He grew closer and closer to his nanny each and every day. He cared about her tons until he had a nightmare while his parents were away on a ski trip. Zeus had completely forgotten about their absence and went running to their bedroom to plead for them to let him into bed with them. Zeus couldn't believe his eyes when he saw Selena with another man on top of her, both completely stripped of both their clothes. The scene was shocking but justified by explaining to Zeus that this was just a game that the adults were playing. Nothing was mentioned of the matter again until Zeus found out what it really was when he was eleven years old. Zeus had become quite the deviant and figured out how easy it was to black mail people. So Selena became his first big victim in some sick game the boy liked to play. Mind you he was just shy of sixth grade at the time when he basically threatened Selena of losing her job if she didn't sleep with him. The kid was obviously demented but he had had a crush on the house keeper for the longest time.
After losing his virginity at the age of eleven his and Selena's relationship progressed into something more. The two were at it like jack rabbits for quite sometime to the point where Selena would be begging the little boy for something more. Zeus was sure it was love but turns out she was still doing it for her job. The little bitch ended up ruining everything in the end though. With her shrill screams one day in the laundry room, the two were trying something new when Mrs. Ledbetter walked in on her son who was still just a child fornicating with a woman that was in her mid twenties. Zeus' mom nearly had a heart attack and pried her boy right off the immigrant whore. She ripped him off so hard her ended up flying back wards and hitting his head on a wooden shelf and splitting it into. Stitches were required. That wasn't the end of the rough housing from his parents.
Like every important family the Ledbetters had their secrets. They obviously didn't want news to get out about their son though he had already informed most of his friends at school. He was the one who got all the guys his age craving for something which made all the girls want to impress them by going all the way. Because Zeus had gotten in on some older ass he became instantly popular with the ladies when he hit middle school. His parents had planned to keep an eye on him but instead they just let him wander off and have continued to allow him to do as he pleases to this very day. Of course he's at a boarding school now but that doesn't make things much different on account that the kid kind of just does as he pleases while away anyways. The guy's a trouble maker always has been always will be. He settles things with his fists or harsh words. Don't even try to get in a fight with him because you'll lose. His high school career so far has been damaged by measly fights and of course getting caught throwing the most killer parties. His grades somehow manage to stay in the A range, it really is something that's truly unbelievable.
Over the course of Zeus' high school career the boy has participated in some pretty fucked up events. Not a single day goes by that the new and improved version of Zeus Ledbetter doesn't regret this. So in terms of making sure things change for the kid he's rid himself of all his old interests. Sleeping around's something he's grown out of and he's become rather reserved in terms of the people he talks to.
and recently .
Once Zeus graduated from the Blair Academy in 2004, Zeus decided he had had enough of Los Angeles. He had ended his high school career on a very dull note, heart broken and what not as he packed his bags. His parents as in Zeus' mother, was quite worried about her son when he told her his plans to pack up and start a new life. There wasn't much she could do since he was an adult and it brought much shame on the family when he confessed he had no desire what-so-ever to continue his education. Instead of heading off to the most elite schools like most of Zeus' class; the boy took a loan out on his parents and moved up to Canada under one condition - he would be forced to send several packages to his mother and father each year and call his mommy at least once a week. Zeus came to Canada with big hopes. He had plans to open up a bakery and he spent most of his time and money into opening up a small shop in Quebec even though Zeus wasn't very experienced with french he devoted himself to the books along side of his new facsination with pasteries. The one catch to Zeus' cake house was the fact that he his tasty treats had something baked into them so you'd get baked. The under ground secret of the store made business boom in your stoner communities and the shopsoon expanded into a kind of coffe hut that also had live music once a week and the young boy had reeled in success by the time he was just nineteen years old.
Still very young, Zeus didn't plan on anything too serious happening to him seeing that he had turned into a major pot head at the time but things did begin to change when some local girl broke out her acoustic guitar and played a set at his hit shop on saturday evening. Zeus became infatuated with the girl while she sang on stage and of course behaved his best when introduced to her afterwards. Her name was Chatter which was ironic since she was so very small and shy outside of the coffe and cake house. The girl was just a year older then Zeus and the two soon started to see one another. A few dates turned into a relationship and even though neither one was interested in getting too close they ended up falling head over heels in love. After a year of being together Zeus and his Chatter box had become the best of friends who rarely ever fought. Things seemed to be going well for the couple until Chatter's career as a musician took off. She started to become popular through out the country and gained a lot more of attention. This of course lead to a wild night life for the couple who would be spotted at nearly every party even on the week nights. As if the alcohol wasn't bad enough for the love birds bodies they began getting into other drugs besides just marijuana. Zeus never saw weed as anything harmful and since his opinion on smoking wasn't anything but open Zeus tried his first joint that was laced with something heavier on his twentith birthday. This was when him and Chatter tripped major balls for the first time ever. After that they both developed an addiction for that wack crack. Zeus' wasn't half as bad as Chatter's which was why on his twenty-first birthday she over-dosed and not him. Zeus had asked the girl to marry him the same day which only made things worse. Zeus was hysterical during his high as he tried to help his beloved.
Fortunately Chatter was revived but Zeus was forced to send her to rehab for three and a half months. During the time alone Zeus cleaned himself up and sadly when Chatter was released she relasped and their engagement was called off this june. That was when Zeus broke down. He was still coming off of all the drugs and detoxing the cold turkey cut way and decided it'd be best for him to move back him with his parents. The only way he was allowed back into their house was if he went to school so Zeus is starting college off with one of the country's most prestige school's, UCLA and he's decided to major in journalism looking to someday make it as a news anchor. For now the boy's yet to contact any old friends and is just waiting around LA for people to recognize him if they please Zeus really doesn't see the point in wasting his time on the people of his past unless they're going to make an effort as well and for now - the twenty-one year old plans on just living a life whatever way he wants.

- - - - - -Knowingly saying goodbye to someone was never an easy task. Especially when those last words were spoken to those you truly did love. Zeus Zeppelin Ledbetter found this to be one of the most challenging things he had ever done. It wasn't as if he had ever had a way with words. He'd never consider himself poetic and knew this letter to Lauren Piner would have to be flaw free if he expected a call back from her ever. Rubbing his chapped lips together that still quivered, Zeus smoothed the crumpled paper. It had taken several hours filled with temper tantrums and nearly all his weed to get what he wanted out in the open. Grunting, still unsatisfied, Zeus knew he had to be missing something. That uneasy feeling had been haunting him since Pinebetter had met tragedy and the seventeen year old male blamed it on being Laurenless. He didn't understand what else it could be but he needed to move on. After crying seventy-five percent of his bodily fluids from his frail figure, Zeus figured it was time to cry some more and proof read his letter to his beloved ex-girlfriend. Clearing his throat, Zeus turned the volume on his ipod, that was blaring Explosion's in the Sky's soothing instrumental melodies into his ear, down a notch or two before he started.
" Dear Lauren Piner,
- - - - - -Good morning sunshine, I know that you're most likely not in the mood to read this let alone hear anything that scum like me has to say, especially so early on in the day. Still, I feel it necessary to put some sort of closure on this thing; not only that but it seems like I have so much to tell you. I'd like to start by saying I love you. Yesterday when you claimed I didn't care about us, you really have no idea how guilty that comment made me feel. Don't think that this letter's the souvenir from some sort of guilt trip though. Think of what I've written as just the things I want you to know. People never have the time to listen anymore so I thought I'd inform you on my feelings, problems, etc., through these bland few pages. I really hope you at least give them a chance and take in what I'm about to tell you... "
- - - - - -Taking a brief pause, Zeus rolled his pretty honey coloured eyes that were stained with a mixture of warm hues. The blood vessels bulged as he tried his hardest to focus on the words scribbled in red ink in front of him. His tummy was already feeling unusually upset and as he went on reading he grew more and more disgusted with himself. All of this trouble was his own fault for fucking up. If he hadn't of been so stupid and been so nice to Avery Darling. It wasn't like she was always kind with him so why did he have to handle the girl with extra care. Still no matter what way Zeus looked at it, he was thankful for not have done something completely serious with Avery. At the same time the boy understood why Lauren had gotten so upset. She wasn't use to hearing about boys cheating on her, not only that but boys that claimed to be in love with her. Gritting his teeth, Zeus knew he'd have to suck it up but his body was weaker then it had ever been as he tried to continue on with reading out loud. That was when he quenched his throat with a sip of Smart Water as he went back to reading the apology.
- - - - - -" I guess there's no way to get around it so there's no reason to hold it back anymore. I'm sorry. I'm sorry I'm so fucking stupid, that I do the dumbest things possible. I'm sorry I hurt you and that now both of us will constantly be reminded of how big of a douche bag I am. You have no idea how horrible I feel about all this bullshit. I never meant to make you upset and it's clear that I was not thinking. None of this makes up for kissing another girl and there's no excuse in the world that would make this sort of thing sound the slightest bit acceptable.
- - - - - -You should know that I'm paying for it dearly. As if being with out you wasn't painful enough I can't get you out of my head. I don't know what to do about everything. I'm going fucking insane thinking about how I'm suppose to go on with out you... I haven't stopped crying since we became nothing. The thought of you hating me won't go away and all I do is sob. This is worse then everything that happened between me and any other girlfriend. I can't get over what I'm losing because I've never owned anything so precious to me. I really never got why a girl like you would show the slightest bit of interest in some sleaze bag boy such as myself but now that this once in a lifetime opportunity has passed I'm pretty broken up about it. There's no way that I'm ever going to be happy with myself ever again. I'm far too disgusted with myself to even deliver this letter to you and force you to interact with me one last time. "
- - - - - -After a lot more sapped up sorrow and a decent sized amount of bashing on his own behalf Zeus had moved himself to the point of tears. For someone who had yet to sleep and smoked the rest of his weed yet still couldn't get high this was expected. Plus, Zeus had sort of turned into a baby at the age of seventeen. He had never been one to cry as a kid but now all those bottled up emotions were getting to the kid. He had no idea how to handle himself anymore so instead of actually trying to he'd just cry. Swallowing the lump in his throat Zeus didn't know if he wanted to go on. There was only a page or so left so he licked the tips of his index and middle fingers to help turn the white paper. Coughing before he went on Zeus' mouth was not satisfied by this non-stop reading so to make the letter last a little longer Zeus hooked himself up with a cigarette before he went on. Making sure he had a cup of some sorts to keep the ashes from going everywhere Zeus sighed softly as he breathed in the harsh toxins. His empty stomach took in the cruel chemicals as he went on re-reading everything he had wrote. Frowning at the the next paragraph he hated how many times he had to mention he loved the girl. It sounded absolutely pathetic but he really wanted her to know that she meant a lot to him.
- - - - - -" You've been a part of my life for awhile now and I'm really grateful to have gained the courage to talk to you freshmen year in the library or else I never would have had a second chance. This last time around has truly been one of the best times of my life. Being with you makes me happy and I'm not sure how much smiling I'll be doing once you leave my life Lauren. You're kind of already not a part of it but I still feel close to you. I really don't want our friendship to fade like the last time but that's really up to you. Please don't stay in my life because you pity me either - be my friend because you really like me or love me or whatever. Just, please, don't feel bad for me because I'm pouring my heart out to you. I don't want that and I know you don't either. At this point I really hope you still have feelings for me Lauren Piner and I hope you still care about me because honestly, you're the only person I like here in Los Angeles. And not just like either but that doesn't really matter.
- - - - - -By now you know about my plans to get away and of course you're a major reason in all that because I know this is not going to ever heal completely so I really just need to get my mind off these sort of things. I plan on going down to San Diego for awhile because LA just isn't for me right now. I hate looking at those who surround me and always feeling shitty about myself. I'm in need of some serious cheering up right now which is why I'm getting away. I'm pretty sure you need to clear your head too which is why I'm going to fly you out to Australia - whenever you want to. I'll even pay for a friend of yours to go too if you'd like. Just you'll need to text me at my new number 619-440-4959. Or contact me somehow. This won't be me making up for anything it'll just be a gift since I know you've been craving that coral reef. Plus it'll be worth it if you write me a postcard saying how happy you are.
- - - - - -Only now that I'm leaving this feels so official but I want you to open up that thick skull of yours and possibly remember that the third time's a charm! I know you're a non-believer when it comes to those sort of things but I think I'd be willing to continue our relationship if you wanted. I know you don't and you have bigger and better fish to go off and catch and I really want you to end up with the right guy but if you're still up for the below average bloke of a boyfriend text me about that too. I'm not sure a relationship is what either of us needs right now but by the time school starts I've decided I'm not going to tolerate fucking up so very much so if you're up for waiting and if I still mean anything to you I hope you can be patient. If not then that's cool. We'll both get what we wanted seeing that I've always been the one to say how much more you deserve. I really don't think I'm the guy for you but I know that what I feel for you is stronger then anything I've ever felt. It makes me sick for the most part and I know either way it's going to hurt but I'd like it if you kept an open mind. You're my best friend and no matter what I want things to stay that way. I promise to keep in touch with you and update you on every little thing while I'm away. I love you and I'll never forget about you.
- - - - - - - - - - - - -Sincerely ,
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Zeus Ledbetter.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -P.S. i love you and when i get back to la,
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -i'll bring you back something special."
- - - - - -Releasing a heavy sigh it looked like the time had come to deliver the letter. Zeus had boarded up his BMW and even kissed his mother goodbye. All that was left to do was eat breakfast and gather up Hermes and little Lauren. Then he'd be on his way to meet his ex-girlfriend a little earlier then what he was expected but Zeus could careless once he had filled up on oatmeal and a banana. Getting into his vehicle Zeus hoped he wouldn't get lost on his drive down to the southern tip of California. It wasn't long before Zeus showed up with Hermes and his note to the girl in his hands he made it up to her residence at the Blair Academy's dormitory. He waltzed right into her home with out he knocking and traveled straight to her bedroom where he set the cat down on her bed. Zeus did everything he could to avoid the small talk and seeing Lauren for the first time with in the last week or so really hurt his heart. She looked her best in her natural state with out make up and he skin glowing as he leaned in for a small kiss on the top of her head. The familiar smell of the girl would soon be gone and Zeus was surprised he was able to save himself from crying as before he exited the apartment feeling nothing but insecure and unwanted as he headed back down to his car.
