Hate Me

Norman, more commonly known as Nero, was adopted when he was twelve into a loving home... until his new brother, Sloan, came into the picture. Now he tries to avoid the mental abuse inflicted by Sloan by cutting, escaping into the world of endorphins and senselessness.

Of the few that actually talk to him, there is Kale, the stargazing son of a well-known mob boss that many people fear.The only things he had left to his name after he left his family were the gas station he managed and the observatory.

On the other hand, there's Amy, the hot-tempered protector who has enough home problems as it is.

And then there's her brother, Ryan who Nero just can't seem to understand. Ryan's friends make fun of Nero and ridicule him to no end. Ryan never apologizes for his friends or himself, but he never takes part in the fights and he always tries to pick up the pieces that his friends leave behind.

What is really on Ryan's mind?
