Dreams are bizarre some are scary some end with happy endings Joey knew the nightmares all too well the blonde headed woman beat him until black in blue the beatings wasn't the worst part in fact it was the least bit of his problems his mother didn't care for her actions when he got asked what happened the excuses was useless people wonder a few probably knew but the point is no one asked Joey wasn't taught about fairytales being true and if they were they was grim he feared when he is with Shane he will just wake up from a crazy messed up dream nothing seems real if it's a dream it's vivid. Joey often thought what if Shane was all in his head? That's when he woke up crying "Shhh shhh" Shane said trying too calm the half asleep boy from crying unaware of what happened Joey sat up rubbing his eyes wiping his tears away Shane looked at him as confusion and concern filled his face ''Whats wrong?'' Shane asked bringing the younger boy closer too him Joey looked up at Shane ''Just a bad dream' Shane kissed the top of the Green eyed boys head ''It will be okay'' Shane said confidently Joey nodded in agreemeant but did not really mean it he was having crazy thoughts what if he loses the boy he loves Joey was lost in his thoughts and didnt even realize Shane was talking '' Would you ever want too?'' Shane asked Joey looked at Shane ''What sorry'' Joey said ''Are you really okay?'' Shane asked Joey smiled once again Shane knew something was up but just let it side well at least for just this one time.

''Fuck, what do you mean?'' Shane screamed on the phone at his mother freaking out by what she had just said Joey came in the kitchen too see his boyfriend almost in tears tension was clearly in the room ''What do you mean?'' Shane asked again still freaking out he then noticed Joey had walked in the room and tried staying calm '' I will call you back'' Shane says as he hangs up setting the phone setting it on the counter "What was that about?" Joey asked concerned Shane just stood there as if he was paralyzed he was in a state of shock but time was beginning too catch up with him he realised what his mother just said was true his grandmother was very ill and in the hospital but he wasn't able too be with her his facial expression was plain but a single tear ran down his cheek more was daring too fall down "Grandma" Shane said that's when all the tears started streaming down his face Joey walked over too placing him into a tight hug "what happened?" He asked looking at Shane by now Shane was crying really hard his cheeks was flushed and his eyes was glassy Shane walked over too the couch and sat down Joey followed "she's in the hospital my mom called they don't know if she will make it" Shane started sobbing and it hit Joey Shanes grandma was a amazing woman but he also know Shane and his grandma was really close she was always full of life Joey pulled Shane closer too try and calm him down and started stroking his hair "I love you" Joey told Shane "I love you too" Shane said but the words was muffled because Shanes face was in Joey shirt, Joey could feel the hot wet tears threatening too fall from his own eyes but he needed too stay strong for Shane Joey started remembering things from a few Christmases ago
--------------Flashback-------------------
It was a chill morning it never snows in California only on rare occasions Joey got dressed up in a blue jacket and a pair of blue skinny jeans and put a beanie over top his head his mother already left the night before saying she wouldn't be back for a few days Shane had invited him over too spend Christmas with himself,mom,Grandma and dad, Joey gladly accepted as soon as he got over too Shanes house someone opened the door it was a red headed lady he realised that was Teresa Shanes mom she gave the boy a smile and hollered for Shane inviting Joey in "Shane!" She yelled The Red headed boy came out of the kitchen with flour all over his clothes and he smelled of pastries but so did the house it was a mix of every sweet thing in the world "Hey Joey! Come help we are making cookies" Shane said grabbing Joeys hand dragging him in the kitchen Joey couldn't protest not that he wanted too so he just laughed and followed the boy as they reached the kitchen Shanes Grandma smiled and handed him a mixing bowl he then started making a dough, while he wasn't paying attention Shane poured a bag of flour over Joey s head Shames grandma cheered him on laughing ever since that day even Joey got close too Shanes grandmother.
--------------current time------------
Joey realised Shane has fallen asleep on him then he let his own tears fall he can only imagine the pain Shane is going through Joey picks up the older boy and carries him too their room laying him on the bed ever so gently shanes instantly grabs a pillow hugging on too it he looks as if he's deeply asleep trying too block out the world not that Joey can blame him Joey kisses the top of Shanes head and covers him up. He looked so peacefully hopefully he was dreaming something better in his head because the outside world was being so cruel too the boy that would give up everything just too save someone he had a heart of gold Joey knew that everyone knew that so why was this happening too him?
