Alexander Lewis is a lanky kid and miserable with his life. 5'8” tall, black hair, dark brown eyes, pale skin with short, greasy black hair. His sullen demeanor has gotten him mistaken for a goth on a rare occasion.
As to miserable, he's a bit clumsy. Lousy at sports and he find it impossible to talk regularly. A lifetime of bullying has left him scared when someone he doesn't know very well starts talking to him. He hates being scared, but the feeling overwhelms him. Sometimes he gets pissed off when it's happening, but even that doesn't help him speak up or do anything but cower and try to get away.
And as if his life isn't bad enough, well, his sister, Lily, is alright. She doesn't share any of his troubles, but his mother. Alicia. He's been growing more jealous of her for years. Not hateful, but she's beautiful, blond haired, blue eyed, shapely with E-cup breasts. She's always getting asked out on dates, going clubbing. She handles people and life easily and ever time it just reminds Alex of how much he sucks at everything she does with beauty and an easy grace.
She's smart enough, too. Competent. She's a district manager of the local copy-shops, a combination of real talent and looks ensuring her promotions, letting her make more than enough to have a house, raise her kids, pay for everything and have plenty of fun.
The remote is waiting for him on the front step of the house, in it's box. He frowns as he picks it up, walking to his room with his despondent slouch. “What the hell are you?” he asks.
