we found love in a hopeless place

Part 3

"Kurtis I've come to ask you... ask you to marry me."

Both Kurtis and Danny's jaws dropped. Bill gates wanted to marry him??

Danny cleared his throat. "Sorry Mr Gates but could you give kurtis and me a minute? We're kinda in the middle of something."

Bill gates blinked. "Kurtis?" He asked. "Is that what you want?"

Kurtis nodded, his mind racing. As cool and completely ethical Bill Gates was... he and Danny were having a moment.

Bill gates frowned but stepped back a few feet. "I'll be right over here if you need anything." He said, stepping out of frame.

Danny turned back to kurtis. "So..."

Kurtis gazed into his baby blue eyes. "Danny," He said, "I can't believe you...that you like me back,"

"Of course I like you, no, love you! You're, well, you." Danny said, smiling fondly.

Kurtis blushed and looked away, unable to hold his crushes eye any longer. His hands played with the hem of his Kurtistown shirt as he tried to find the words to say just how much he loved Danny.

He took a breath. "Danny—"

"—That will be quite enough." Bill Gates said.

Both Danny and Kurtis whipped around in surprise, having completely forgotten about mr gates.

"What do you mean, sir?" Kurtis asked.

Bill chuckled, shaking his head fondly. "Didn't you hear me earlier? I will be the one marrying Kurtis. Sorry, Danny boy, but you're too late!"

With a snap of his fingers men in suits surrounded Danny and Kurtis.

"Wait what the f—"

"—Danny!" Kurtis cried out, reaching for him. The men started hauling him towards the street where a black limousine was.

"Kurtis!" Danny struggled against the men, trying to get away, but his strength was exhausted after the run he'd been on. "Dang it, let me go! Kurtis! I'll find you, I promise!"

Their eyes met from across the way, forming a silent promise. They'd find each other, no matter what.

Kurtis squeezes his eyes tight as the door to the car slammed shut. Then there was nothing but silence.
