TW: hey before we start I'd like to say there will be homophobia and abuse in the chapter- also I can reclaim the f slur
~ Ashley's POV ~
"Sal.. I've liked you for a long time. Once you started dating Travis i've been really jealous.. I'm sorry for acting like this, i'm trying to move on" I tried my best to hold back my tears.
Sal paused for a minute before saying something.
"It's okay Ash, thank you for telling me. You're a really good person and you'll meet someone way better than me, trust me" Sal chuckled softly.
"Don't say that.." I smiled and laughed a bit, I was really lucky to meet someone like him.
"I'll see you tomorrow at school, okay?"
"Okay.. Goodnight, Sal"
"Night, Ash!" Sal said before hanging up the phone.
I took a deep breath before laying back on my bed and looking up at my ceiling. I felt way better than before, I think I might actually be able to move on from him.
~ Travis's POV ~
I sat on Sally's bed while he called Ash, listening to some of their conversation.
"Is everything okay..?" I asked, Ash seemed really upset today.
"Yeah, don't worry we figured everything out"
I smiled softly. "That's good"
I haven't been home for almost two weeks, I was too scared to go back. If my father finds out that I got a boyfriend I'll be dead, LITERALLY. I intentionally broke my phone so I wouldn't have to deal with that whole mess.
"Let's get some rest, it's already pretty late" Sal yawned and climbed into bed next to me, pulling the covers over both of us and turning off the lights. He wrapped his arms around my waist, holding me close to him which caused me to blush.
"Goodnight Trav.. I love you"
"I love you too" I smiled softly, wishing this could last forever.
~ Time Skip ~
I woke up to the alarm clock going off, I groaned and quickly turned the damned thing off. I rolled over, noticing that Sal was already out of bed. I yawned and got up, putting on the clothes I usually wear. I walked out to the kitchen, seeing Sal and Henry.
"Good morning Travis, I've already told Sal this but I have to go on another business trip. I'll be back by next week" Henry said, sipping on his coffee.
I nodded and walked over to the kitchen table. Henry was fine with me staying for awhile, especially once I told him what's happening at home. Sal walked over to me and sat next to me, giving me a cup of coffee. I smiled and thanked him before quickly eating the eggs Henry made.
It was like any other day at school, like always I barley payed attention and just daydreamed half the time. I was in my 6th period, learning about history. Just a few more classes and I'll finally be able to go home. All of a sudden a teacher walked into my classroom.
"Travis Phelps, we have someone waiting for you in the main office."
I looked over at the teacher, confused. I got up from my seat and slowly walked to the main office, wondering who it could be. I was a bit nervous.
Once I arrived to the office my heart dropped. I couldn't believe it. It was my dad, also known as Kenneth Phelps.
'Oh fuck.. I'm in deep shit' I thought to myself, he already looked really pissed off.
"We need to go home right now. You can get you're stuff tomorrow." My dad said sternly, he harshly grabbed me by my shoulder, basically dragging me out of the school.
"D-dad..! Wait!" I was panicking.
Once we were out the school, Kenneth turned around, bitch slapping me. "WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOURE DOING?"
I held my cheek, it was stinging pretty badly. Kenneth took a deep breath before saying something.
"You're in huge trouble boy, get in the goddamn car"
I obliged, quickly getting in the car. Knowing that this will not end good.
We arrived at my house. I looked at the god forsaken building, remembering everything that happened here. My dad didn't say anything to me the whole car ride, I just know he's saving everything for when we go inside. Once I walked inside the house my mother came rushing over to me, pulling me into a tight hug.
"Travis thank god you're alright!!!"
I hugged my mom back, feeling a bit bad that I left her all alone with him.
Kenneth walked through the door, glaring down at me.
"Dear, can you give me and Travis some alone time?"
My mom nodded before getting up.
"Let's talk later, okay Trav?"
I looked up at her, nodding. Trying not to cry. She quickly left the room, leaving just me and Kenneth alone together.
"Travis, where the hell have you been?"
I gulped, looking down at the floor. "I needed some time away from here, i stayed at my friends house for a bit.."
Kenneth harshly grabbed my chin, forcing me to look up at him. "Where's your phone?? We've been trying to reach you for weeks!!"
"I-It broke.." I was fucking terrified.
Kenneth let go of me, "Who did you stay with?"
"M-my friend.. Sallyface..."
"So you were hanging out with a bunch of homos, eh? Don't think I haven't heard about those kids, he hangs out with that faggot, Todd!"
I glared at Kenneth. "Don't say that about Todd!" I yelled at him.
Kenneth frowned, before grabbing me by my collar and punching me harshly in my face. "IM NOT GOING TO LET MY SON BE A FUCKIN FAGGOT, DONT YOU WANT GOD TO LOVE YOU??"
My nose started bleeding. "Dad i-im not gay! Please stop!!" I started crying.
Kenneth threw me to the ground, towering over me. "You're NEVER gonna see that boy again, you here me?? You will be helping me at the church until you're FIXED, you will not be attending school for a very long time. You're mother will homeschool you until you learn what's right, GO TO YOUR FUCKING ROOM AND DON'T COME OUT UNTIL YOU'RE TOLD TO DO SO"
I quickly got up and ran to my room, shutting the door behind me. I started bawling. I can't fucking believe it, my life is being ruined by my parents ONCE AGAIN. I can't just leave Sal, he's the only thing keeping me alive!! I need Sal, I miss him so bad. I punched my wall, leaving a hole in it. I'm a dumbass, I should've never done this.
I'm sorry, Sallyface...
