"Dad! I'm home," Damien called out, coming inside. He had Patton with him. A month ago, right after Damien had slept over at Patton's, Damien's dad wanted to meet the boy. So, tonight, Patton was over for dinner.

His dad came out with a small smile. "Hello," he said, shaking Patton's hand. "I'm Janus's dad, Caligula Stamos. Pleasure to meet you," he said, humming.

Patton smiled. "Hi, sir," he giggled. "I'm Patton. Patton Heart."

Damien hummed. "Dad," he said. "Please don't call me Janus, I don't like it and you know that." He offered his dad a small glare, but Caligula had only chuckled.

"Right," he hummed softly. "I forgot, Damien. Anyways, your mom should be home soon, ok?"

The boy nodded and pulled Patton to his room, closing his door. Damien sighed and plopped on his bed, tossing his bag aside. "Cmon, sit," he chuckled.

Patton gently sat his own bag down and sat by Damien, playing with his hands. "So," he giggled. "Your name is Janice?"

Damien groaned and gave him a look. "Janus," he emphasized. "Like the two-faced Roman god, y'know?" He propped himself up on his elbow. "My full name is Janus Damien Stamos. I prefer my middle name," he chuckled.

"Why?" Patton asked. "I think Janus is an awesome name!"

De bit his lip. "Because it does sound like Janice. I used to get teased about it a lot, so I started going by Damien instead," he shrugged. "What about you? What's your middle name?"

Patton blushed. "Ah it's uh...Lucy," he chuckled. "Patton Lucy Heart. Lucy was my dad's sister's name. She died when he was little. So they named me after her. Where'd your name come from?"

"Tradition," Damien hummed. "Janus is a Roman god. Caligula was a Roman emperor. My grandfather's name was Julius. Wanna know the funny thing?" When Patton nodded, Damien continued. "Stamos is a Greek last name," he chuckled softly.

The other giggled and looked at him, smiling happily. "Oh gosh," Patton hummed, watching him from above. "That's amazing, I don't know where mine came from."

Damien shrugged and sat up. "I dunno," he said, smiling gently. "But I really like it. It's adorable, Pat." He watched the other blush and smiled a bit bigger, Damien reached over, brushing the hair from Patton's face to behind his ear.

Patton blushed more and smiled softly. "Hi," he whispered, now just a few inches from Damien's face.

"Hi," Damien said softly. He leaned down and connected their lips, and both boys felt fireworks. They pulled back for a mere second before kissing again, Damien pulling Patton into his lap.

After a bit, the door opened. "Bo-" Caligula started, seeing them. His eyes hardened as they both jumped away from one another. Caligula grabbed Patton and dragged him out, Damien screaming at him.

"No!" Caligula screamed. "No son of mine with be a fucking faggot!" He threw Patton on the ground and pulled out his flask and lighter, lighting the lighter instantly. Damien grabbed Patton, the alcohol getting dumped on him instead.

Loud screams were heard as the lighter dropped onto Damien's face, and he jumped up and ran to the kitchen to get water on himself. Patton followed and grabbed a bowl, throwing water on Damien as tears streamed down his face.

Caligula stood there, watching his son burn. "No son of mine will be a faggot," he mumbled, grabbing his phone. In a scared voice, he dialed 911, acting as if Damien had been playing with the items.

The ambulance came and both Caligula and Patton got to ride with Damien, getting to the hospital. Patton kept trying to tell police that Caligula had done it, but the older man had too much sway since he was a military man.

Patton felt helpless as he watched Janus get wheeled to the OR, and he had to stay with the man who had done this to his best friend.
