 "Je suis en colère," dit-elle également, "Et quand je ne suis pas en colère, je suis triste. Un jour, j'aurai la forte envie de combattre quelqu'un, n'importe qui. Le suivant, je pleurerai sans arrêt pendant des heures. Une minute je pleure sur les photos de quand nous étions enfants, et la suivante je complote la vengeance sur Dieu sait qui".
Leith a hurlé. Il comprenait exactement d'où elle venait parce qu'il le ressentait aussi. Si c'était pour sa mère et sa petite sœur, pour qui il avait besoin de rester fort et courageux, il était certain qu'il s'en serait pris à quelqu'un... Probablement son beau-père depuis qu'il était toujours là et la relation était déjà sous tension. Il se composait cependant, même lorsqu'il s'approchait de crier la maison vers le bas.
" Je sens le même Shaun qu'il était d'accord. "Maman a insisté pour que je reste à la maison après qu'elle m'ait dit les nouvelles..Bonne chose qu'elle a fait ou j'aurais mis une clé à travers un pare-brise au travail et c'est juste pour commencer" Leith savait que le père de Shaun était un bon gars, il a pris Leith sous son aile pendant un peu de temps, lui laissant son moment pour se lier avec un gars, une figure de père, qui n'était pas son beau-père. Mais même M. Jenkins avait ses limites et Leith était certain qu'il serait viré s'il allait détruire des voitures de clients, même compte tenu des circonstances extraordinaires.
"Et toi, Leith? Comment tenez-vous le coup?" Elle a demandé avec un léger clin d'œil de sa tête. "Je sais à quel point vous étiez proches."
Il a hurlé.. Un moment s'est passé où il a juste pensé... C'est un peu lamentable.
"Il y a tellement de choses que j'ai dû lui dire... Je... Je n'avais même pas réalisé et maintenant... C'est nul de savoir, je ne peux même pas lui dire merci... ou dire que je suis désolé pour toutes ces fois où je dois ennuyer la sale ouuta. Je me sens aussi un peu coupable trop tu sais?" La question était sur les lèvres de tout le monde... pourquoi elle?
"Ça n'aurait pas dû être elle... J'étais un tyran au lycée mais elle était toujours douce comme tarte, elle n'a rien fait pour mériter ça et j'ai fait tout un tas de trucs... Pas assez pour quelqu'un pour aller me tuer mais... Elle méritait tellement moins que tout le monde dans ce village de Dang."
Il aurait aimé dire qu'ils allaient attraper le tueur mais... Est-ce qu'ils le feraient?/autant de meurtres n'ont pas été résolus et Olivia était un tel mystère. Il ne voulait pas obtenir ses espoirs ou mentir à Shauna quand ils ne pouvaient vraiment pas dire...
"J'espère que la police les attrapera, celui qui a fait ça..."
Leith

Wait, you mean you didn't know Italian Spiderman was actually made in Australia? 

▾ Name: Leith
Leith Matteo Meyer
▾ Age:
19
▾ Gender:
Male
▾ Sexuality:
Homosexual
▾ Piercings, Tattoos, Scars:
Nope.

▾ Humble ▾ Indecisive ▾ Generous ▾ Unassertive ▾

▾ Personality:
Leith is a mommas boy at heart. A real sweetheart, he likes to help people out and most would say he's honestly the sweetest boy on earth. He's not without his shortcomings however. During his teenage years, Leith was disruptive in class and a bit of a troublemaker. His acting out was largely due to his conflicting feelings regarding his sexuality as he began to discover he wasn't attracted to girls. When he finally came out and learned to love himself a little more, he returned to the sweet boy he'd been before, heck, moreso even, he was now more humbled.
He's a bit of a prude in a way. Not that he's utterly virginal, but he absolutely can't stand foul language and can't help but cringe when someone swears, he himself never cusses. He generally keeps to himself but is also quick to offer a helping hand and be outgoing. He loves his friends dearly and he's a soft, old-school hopeless romantic at heart. His biggest issue is probably his indecision. Leith tries to please everyone and often fails to satisfy ANYONE by trying to keep everyone happy. He's easily manipulated because he tries to be a people pleaser. His relationship with his step-father is tense. He tends to have conflicting emotions regarding the men in his life and at times his rejection at the hands of his biological father rears its ugly head and threatens his relationships. 
▾ Hobbies & Interests:
Repairing engines. He doesn't care about fancy new models or luxury cars, he likes fixer-uppers. He likes reading comicbooks and watching low budget "awful" movies (the worse the movie, the better!). He's outdoorsy and sporty and would happily spend every weekend swimming in the creek or camping and singing round a campfire with friends.
▾ Likes & Dislikes:

- swearing

▾ Other:
He's left handed, bears a striking resemblance to his biological father, works in the local auto-repair garage. He was somewhat close to the victim (Olivia) because sometimes after school he would sit in Nicky's while his mom worked and she would help him with his homework and she was probably the second or third person he came out to (after his mom) because she had such a warm, kind temperament. He's been very unsettled by her gruesome and untimely death. 

▾ Biography:
The end-product of a teenage pregnancy ... Leith had a pretty decent childhood though, his mother Jessica, done a good job and she was heavily supported by Leith's maternal-grandparents.
His father (who was from an Italian family, hence Leith's half-Italian heritage) didn't stick around and this rejection at the hands of his father has always lingered with Leith.
Leith was about 12 when he began to think he was different and by 14 he was 100% sure he was gay and that made him miserable.
He was troublesome in school even though he was quite popular in his class and well liked by his peers. His mom didn't know what to do. Teachers said he was clever but kept causing disruptions and didn't do his homework. He fought with his step-dad and was disagreeable, so much unlike the sweet, quiet child Jessica had once known.
Things got a lot better when Leith finally confided in his that he was gay and was scared she'd kick him out and reject him like his father did, afraid his friends would turn on him and his life would be ruined. She accepted him and supported him although it wasn't always easy on her, especially in a small, religious town. Regardless, Jess put on a brave face because deep down, even though she didn't mean to get pregnant at 17, she was happy with her life, her family, and she loved Leith to death.
After coming out things began to look a lot better for Leith. He lost some friends in school, but surprisingly, he had a few supporters and homophobic bullying didn't really harm him. While he studied, he became an apprentice mechanic at the local auto-repair shop and thoroughly enjoyed it. Jess wanted him to go to college, she'd had a chance and lost it and didn't want it to happen to her son, but he seemed content Dixie fixing cars. It was his own real serious interest he didn't have any huge ambitions. She urged him to consider college, perhaps he'd like engineering. In the end, he was awarded a sports scholarship, but he could defer it for a couple of years.

Nope.

▾ Homely ▾ Sometimes Strict ▾ Loving ▾ Smothering ▾

▾ Personality:
Jess tries to be Super-Mom, and for the most part, she doesnt' do half bad, but she's certainly not perfect. She's not as mature as other mums, at least, she wasn't when Leith was young, but now she's older and wiser but sometimes she still finds herself out of her depth. She relies a lot on her husband for support, advice and insight. Sometimes she can be a bit of a soft touch, particularly with Leith because they have a unique bond. She loves her family and her home and is very house-proud. Sometimes she can be a bit bratty to the neighbours, they are roughly the same age, except instead of having teenagers and young adult kids, their kids are just starting school (in the 2-10 age range), she feels she has a lot to prove because she's still trapped in the 80's when people looked down on girls getting pregnant at a young age, or having kids with different fathers.

▾ Biography:


Jessica was a pretty, popular young girl. She was the cheerleader with the hot (Italian) quarterback boyfriend and the whole world ahead of her was gleaming with promise. She was going to get a cheerleading scholarship and go to a fancy city university and everything would be just dandy ... Until she found herself pregnant at 17 ... She had her first child, a boy, Leith, when she turned 18.
Jessica found it hard to bond with Leith at first, but her mother and father were supportive, they insisted she stick it out and be proud and raise Leith to the best of her ability. Leith's father stuck around for about 8 months before abandoning them and disappearing to another state or europe or WHO KNOWS WHERE, never even sending a card or a penny of support. This made Jess furious, but it also made her very protective of her little boy.
Although they had a rocky start, Jess became an utterly devoted mother and gave Leith the very best life she could, with the help of her own parents. When Leith turned 5, she was able to work again, taking part-time hours while he was in school. She developed a bit of a social life and some independence. When Leith was 7, Jess's father took a stroke and eventually had to be taken into residential care. Her mother left to go to the next town over to stay close to her father and the title of the house was turned over to her. With a part time job and a busy young son and now a house to do up all of her own, Jess found herself very busy indeed.
Eventually, waitressing at the Nickys restuarant she'd worked in since Leith was 5, a regular, a solicitor from the city, finally worked up the courage to ask her on a date. For the first time since she was a teenager, Jess was getting dolled up and going out on dates. Leaving Leith with a child minder on date night, she enjoyed the attention and the brief feeling that she wasn't all alone. Robert was successful, hardworking and kind and he didn't even mind that Jess had a child.
After a few months of courting, Jess introduced him to Leith and the couple began considering moving in together, if he could find a way to work closer to Dixie. SUCCESS!!! and so Leith got a new "dad", although he didn't really take to him much, after spending his entire childhood with only Jess, he was standoffish and distrustful of suddenly having a father figure. Regardless, Step-Dad Robert tried his best.
When Jess found herself pregnant once again, she feared she'd be left alone with the child again and asked Robert where he stood with this "family" she had. Fortunately she got a much deserved happy ending and they got married very quickly and then Jess's daughter, April was born. Jess left her job in the diner to raise April and become a full time house wife, her husband could comfortably support them, especially since they didn't have a mortgage to worry about. Now, Leith is a man (though he's still her baby) and her daughter is quickly growing up too, Jess happily maintains her home, keeping kids and husband happy and instead of work, she gets involved in various community projects and parent groups. Although he is long in the past, she still painfully remembers Leith's father, since he looks so strikingly similar to him.
