Like I do

"Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage"

Matthew Gray

"Ryan, what the hell are you doing?! Where are you taking me?" I asked as he covered my eyes so I couldn't see anything.

"It's a surprise! Calm down, you actually should feel sorry for me! Cause you're damn tall and I am the one who needs to keep my arms up so you won't see anything!" Ryan yelled playfully and guided me towards,

I had no idea where.

"Oh you sad little boy" I grinned cheekily in that moment, but karma got right back at me since I almost tripped.

"Oops.." Ryan giggled innocent and I bet he was smirking now.

The little bastard.

I was glad that Ryan and I made up yesterday. He was my best friend after all, I would be nothing without him and nobody could ever replace the little bubbly boy. He was one of the people who made me happier than ever.

Everything slowly seemed to fall in its place lately. I had my friends and my mom next to me, my medicines did their work for my bipolar disorder and Justin was..

I don't know what we were.

"It's that I can't see right now or else I would have loved to take revenge at you for that" I laughed soft at my silly best friend.

The curiosity inside of me was killing me, because I actually hated surprises and I had no idea what was going on right now. But I trusted Ryan so I just hoped that it was worth it.

Not long after that, he stopped walking and made me stand still.

"Okay, we are here" Ryan said as he pulled his hands away.

The lights made me squint my eyes a bit as I tried to get used to it. Eventually I could see everything clear and saw the familiar hallways, but this time they were decorated with led lights, small flowers and colored garlands. I looked at it with widened eyes as I admired how beautiful it looked around here. People suddenly gathered around me which made me wonder what was happening here.

"Why are we in school?" I slightly frowned in confusion.

But then,
I saw him..

My eyes widened at Justin.

Who stood in a dark blue tux right in front of me.

And the only thing I could do was gape with an open mouth at how freaking gorgeous he was.

He styled his hair back in the way he used to do that, his green forest eyes matched with the suit and made them come out brighter. The soft comfortable smile lingered on those sweet cherry lips of his, which finished the whole picture.

I couldn't believe that this boy was almost mine.

My heart beat went by like a train as I watched him. All the air got sucked out of my lungs. He got me all star struck, frozen to the ground and nervous due to my hands that were visibly shaking.

This surprise might get interesting.

"Matz.." He spoke up, walked closer towards me and took my shaky hands in his.

The warmth of his hands consumed my entire body and caused me tingly goosebumps.

"J-Jus.. W-what is all this?" I whispered soft, still confused.

"Here.." He pushed a small piece of paper in my hands.

When I looked at it, I saw that it was a drawing of Justin and I. We were cuddling each other tightly, there were also a couple of hearts around it and I was honestly in shock at how beautiful the drawing was made.

"Wow.." I whispered.

Then my eyes fell on something he wrote above the drawing.

"Three words.. Eight letters.. Say it, and I'm yours.." I read out loud.

My heart skipped a bit as I slowly looked up at Justin, locking my gray eyes to his green ones.

Did this mean what I thought it meant?

Everyone was still gathered around us, practically cheering for us and I felt overwhelmed by it.

But all of it was in a really good way.

"At first we didn't like each other and we weren't under the best circumstances.." Justin laughed soft which made me smile at the memory. "But once I got to know you.. I realized that I needed someone like you in my life. You brought me the comfort, joy and happiness that I needed these last seven months. This might be early for you, we're not even boyfriends, but I want you to know. I need you to know. Ever since our first kiss five months ago; I love how your messy hair is so messy on top of you head, that it actually looks really good. I love how your inhuman gray eyes lighten up when you laugh with that unforgettable smile of yours. I love how you make me feel like I'm on top of the world. But the most important thing.. I love you Matthew Gray" He breathed out and watched me with his hopeful eyes.

He loves me, Justin loves me.

Me...

Those sweet words brought love to my heart, something that only one person could a while ago. Never in a million years would I've thought that Justin would be the one for me, but we found one another and he was that little light source that helped me towards the end of my dark depressed tunnel. The boy gave me strength and courage to live my life.

He showed me how it felt to be loved again.

A soft voice in my head caught my attention, and it wasn't just a voice; it sounded like Rain.
'It's okay Matthew, be happy for once. You deserve it. Justin's a good guy now. Go get your boy'.

Tears were slowly forming into my eyes, but none of them were from sadness,

They were from love.

"Matty.. It's okay.. You don't have to say it back or be my boyfriend. I get it, you're not ready yet and- and-"

But I already interrupted him before he could finish that sentence.

"I wanna be your boyfriend" I walked up to him, cupped his cheeks and softly kissed his lips long.

"And I love you too Justin McCall"
