000 ~ a biography
Benjamin and Mika were only seventeen when they decided that they were ready to spend their entire lives together. It was after graduating from high school that the young couple made the choice to get married young, and remain in each others arms for all of eternity. They were both going to New York for college and they decided to do it right before moving in with one another. The couple married soon after the decision was made, during the summer before their first year of post secondary education. They made one another happy and that was what mattered to them, despite any qualms anyone might have had about the sudden union. They were in love, that was their only excuse. Despite their rushed nuptials, the young couple didn't bother rapidly maturing, they lived their lives as though they were fresh out of high school, going to university. They didn't settle down immediately, start a family. In fact, it was nearly 5 years after they were wed that Mika informed her husband that they were going to be parents and while he wasn't exactly ready he set out to spend the next few months mentally preparing himself, as well as making any necessary preparations that weren't considered emotional ones. At this point in their lives, Mika and Benjamin had left their small apartment in New York City to live overseas in a small, but perfect house in Shrewsbury, England. On the 10th of September, 1991 after what might have been considered a rather long labor, Mika and Benjamin welcomed their newborn son in to the world. They had spent weeks before his birth trying to choose a name for him, when they had finally decided their decision had stuck. He was Seth Osiris Deluca. He was their baby. Their soon-to-be pride and joy.
Life before the age of 5 was easy. He didn't have to do much aside from the basic baby/toddler things. He had to learn to use the potty, a piece of cake. He needed to learn his ABCs and his 123s. Another piece of cake. He didn't show any problems in reading or writing, basic 2+2 math, anything that his parents tried to teach him simple stuck and he remembered it perfectly. He took after his father like that, he was an easy learner. The knowledge went in and never came back out again, it was difficult to explain to anyone who wasn't Benjamin. He understood the way his son's brain functioned, even if he couldn't explain it with any real meaning aside from the fact that he was just... a smart child. It wasn't really until his parents told him that they were going to bring another baby into the family that the rebellion really began. Though his parents had been convinced that their baby boy would be happy with this, they were nothing but wrong. He set out to find a way to convince them that they didn't need another child, that he was their baby and that he would always be their baby. It was too late, and while Seth was unhappily awaiting the arrival of his sibling, his parents continued to hope that eventually he would understand that it was too late, and his sibling was already coming. He didn't understand. No one had bothered to explain it to him. He continued to boycott the whole idea of his parents bringing another baby home, he would cross his arms over his chest, stomp around, cry, pout, absolutely nothing worked. It wasn't until his parents came home the day after the birth of their daughter that he truly accepted his fate. He was forever to be cast off into the world of unknown children that his friends at the play park were always talking about. For nearly three months after the birth of his little sister, Seth chose to remain silent. Not one single word left his mouth when he was in the company of others.
Of course, What he didn't expect was to find his baby sister intriguing. She giggled at everything, cried whenever she felt like it, she was pink and squishy. It didn't take much longer than the three months of the silent treatment for him to get used to having her around. He didn't vow to protect her like most big brothers would have but he was still very interested in how she functioned, what she did and why she did it. Within some time, he came to the conclusion that she wasn't a bad thing and continued on with his life as he had before the terror of being replaced hit.
Growing up, Seth had always been what one might consider a loner. He and the other kids in his neighborhood didn't necessarily get along with one another. They all had clashing interests as well as clashing personalities. His peers were more interested in being menaces, dirtying up their clothes while chasing girls through the streets and school yard. They preferred mindless video games and tv drama over their education or reading a book. Seth opted to remain inside, rather than joining them in their adventures. It was a concern that he wasn't making friends, his parents worried constantly that he might be lonely, that the other children might not have wanted to play with him rather than having it the other way around. He eventually told them otherwise. He didn't want to play with them, he was happier inside where it was warm, and where he could just sit around. He wasn't the most active of children. By the time he was 14 his entire childhood had passed before he could even notice. It wasn't until then that he made the choice to pull himself away from his quiet, difficult personality only to adopt one that was more accepting of others, more friendly and much more welcoming of new and exciting experiences. He became the person people wanted him to be, friendly, playful but still kept up with his studies. It wasn't long after his change that he discovered a few things about being social. One: People weren't quite as bad as they came across as and secondly: There was a lot of trouble on group of 14 year old boys could get into without ever getting caught. Drugs, alcohol, everything that they could think of. At first, he was weary, he wasn't sure that he was ready to go so deep into socialization but once he had put the facts out in front of him, he realized it wasn't such a bad idea. Or, rather, he had convinced himself that it was a good idea.
Less than a year after Seth's first attempt at being a normal teenager, his father and mother announced to their children that they were leaving England to, much to their childrens dismay, moving to the United States of America. Key West to be exact. A career opportunity, that's what they called it. His father had been offered a job at a small, personal clinic in Florida and he was beyond thrilled to accept the position. Within the month, the family had packed up everything they owned and left their home in Shrewsbury for a new one in the warm weather. New friends to make, new classes to take, new adventures to be had. This was going to be interesting.
