Kyle

Today is our presentation and I dunno if I can even go to my first class. I walk very slowly to my locker because, I can't move my limbs due to the beating that I received from my father this morning. I'm still surprised that I'm still alive, with the damage that I recieved, all I have is painful bruises. I reached for my things as I see Dylan jog towards me, damn he's so hot. He just came by to greet and ask me about our report later on, after our small talk he told me that he'll see me later as he walk back to his friends. Both his friends and I look at him with confusion, he just frowned at his friends. "What?" He asked, they just continue on staring at him blankly. "We are friends now, he's cool. If you don't want him to be your friend fine but, don't ever complain about us being friends." I just smiled at his statement, damn he makes me shiver. With all the bad that happened to me, all I need is this kind of good.

I am making my way to my first class as I see Gavin and his friends. Damn, in my condition they will notice me before I can go to an alternative route. I was thinking so hard I never felt an arm wrapped around my shoulder. "Let's go?" It's Keithan, Gavin saw the both of us and he smirked at me. "Hey, Kyle got a boyfriend now but, what can he do?" He mocked both me and Keithan. "Gavin Ride right?" Keithan asked and Gavin look at him confused. "I guess you are the son of Mr. Ride, Vice president of Finance in Cirque Clothing Co." Gavin snickered. "What you gonna tell mommy and daddy to fire my dad?" Keithan just keep his cool. "That's where you're wrong Gavin." Keithan corrected him. "I am the CEO of Cirque Clothing Co., I built that company from my own money so, technically I own it." Gavin flinched in Keithan's statement. "I won't fire your dad though he's an asset it's just that he seemed so proud about how educated and civilized you are when we met in a party." Keithan continued. "I wonder how he will react when he heard from his boss how his son misbehave at school." Gavin can't even find his words as terror swallow him whole, I never knew Keithan can be this scary. "What do you want?" Gavin finally manage to say. "Leave me and my friends alone or I'll make you suffer living a hellish life." Keith threatened him, Gavin just froze and backed away together with his friends. "Wow, you're scary." I commented and Keithan smiled at me going back to his old  happy self and have me a hug and I tried to hide my hiss due to the pain from my bruises.

The day went on as normal, we did an excellent job in our report. We are the dream team, even our teacher ran out of things that may bring us down. As expected the three of us got an easy A plus but, Keithan doesn't seem to be happy about anything, something's off about him. Now we are hanging out during our free period here on my secret rooftop, now there's three of us who knows about this spot. It's like our little secret, I also made more sandwiches because the three of us will celebrate our victory. Dylan and I was eating like there's no tomorrow but, Keithan just sit there silently. "What's wrong Keith? I made the sandwiches that you really like." He just walk towards me and I thought he's gonna give me another hug but, in my horror he lifted my shirt revealing my severely bruised body. "So this is why you hissed." He scanned my body with no emotion on his face, I look at Dylan and I saw him clench his fist in anger. "Who did this to you?" Dylan asked and Keith crossed his arms. I just look down, hug my knees and stay silent. Dylan grab my shoulders carefully. "Kyle, it's okay you can tell Keith and I."  Dylan said. Keith sit beside me and wrapped his arm around me. "We are your friends, you can trust us." Keith said. I started crying and tell them everything. How it all started when my mom left us, how dad started drinking and hitting me after, how I can't leave my dad cause I'm all he's got. They just sit with me there as I cry there endlessly Keith pulled my head into his shoulder and Dylan just rub my back. We sat there for hours until we decided to go home.

I was gonna wave them goodbye but, both of them nodded at each other and in my actual horror Dylan lifted me bridal style as he locked me into his car. "Take care of Kyle while I make a report to the police." Keithan said and it terrified me, no my dad, they are going to make my dad go to jail. I screamed and hurt Dylan as he try to drive me away but, because my body is in so much pain I just stopped and watch, my vision gets blury as my consciousness fades away.

I woke up in a very unfamiliar place, it's comfortable though. I felt something cold touches my skin. I opened my eyes and saw Dylan, I remember what happened how he took me. Oh god dad, they're going to take my dad to jail. I tried to move but, I can't even lift a finger. Tears start to fall down my cheeks, yeah all I can do is cry about everything. "Kyle, you're awake, please don't cry." Dylan said as he caressed my cheek. "I trusted you, both of you." I said as my voice shakes due to my tears. He just hug me, he hold me like I'm everything. "We're just trying to help, we just want you safe." And I relaxed to his touch and to his words. "Ehem..." I flinch but, Dylan just sit still and hold me. "So he's your gay friend, more like a boyfriend to me." He commented and I just feel my face burn up. "Shut up Darius, I'm just comforting him. Do you know how traumatizing the situation is for him?" He really cares about me. "Sorry, that was so insensitive of me. Here's the soup that you ask for. How is he?" He inquired. "I'm fine now, thank you for your help." I manage to answer. "Dylan please, I wanna see my dad." I asked Dylan. "Kyle you can't right now, Keith said that your dad is still enraged. He said that he will kill you, just stay please, I promise when he's better we will see him okay?" Dylan pleaded like he pleaded for his life. "Okay." I said plainly. "Thank you, Dylan." He smiled at me and I hug him, he hug me back and right now it feels everything. "Awe guys I'm not mocking you but, this is making me cry. Bro you found your boy, and you're not even gay!" Darius is actually crying right now. "Darius stop being so dramatic, it's not healthy for Kyle he will get your over gayness, he's well off being cool, cute and shy." Dylan said absentmindedly I just blush. "Hmm you're having it bro you just called him cute." Dylan was stunned and Darius leave the room hopping. "Well, he's really something." I remarked. "Yeah." That's all he said.

We just sat in Dylan's room as we wait for Keithan to come. After a few more hours of waiting he came. He just went straight to me, and hold my arms. "I'm sorry we just had to do it, we can't let him hurt you more." He, look straight to my eyes. I noticed that he has a bruise and a cut at the corner of his lips, I hold his face up and inspect it he hissed when I touch he's injury. "Did dad do this?" I asked him. "I'm sorry I don't want you to be involved. Look at what happened to you." I told him as Dylan passed Keith the ice bag.

"So how's my dad, is he fine in jail?" I finally asked Keith. "No, I just asked the help of the police just in case. I brought him to the best rehabilitation center. We're gonna help your dad okay, we're gonna bring your real dad back. He will gonna get every help that he can okay?" He said and my tears started rolling again and this time, they are not dad ones. "Thank you." Was all manage to say, my dad is okay and he's going to be okay again. Keith hugged me and I hug him back, I felt another pair of arms around me, it's Dylan. "Thanks guys." with my words I felt their hugs grew tighter. "Oh God how lucky can you get, two boyfriends?" Darius step inside the room again being over dramatic. "First my hot brother, now a guy hotter than my brother!" Dylan looks annoyed, Keith is just in shock while I just found myself laughing. "Okay guys stay here I'm just gonna take care of this nuisance." Dylan said. "Hey!" Darius tried to protest but, he was dragged by Dylan out of his room. "Let me guess, that's his gay brother?" Keith asked still confused and I chuckled. "Yeah, he's definitely something." This is the best right now and I know that everything will become even better than this.
