Sugar & Spice

Part two: I'll go slow, just for you Al

Now I may have spent the rest of my life growing up on the outside part of the city but I have seen and heard wrongest things. So hearing noises like his is something completely different, not that I dislike it anyways. Especially if it's from Al.

"That's okay Alphonse, I didn't mind it at all. It is how you are, comes with the package. But if anything, that was pretty bold of you," I said to him as I offered a smile.

"Yeah well, I mean I guess I’m so comfortable because it’s just who I am; not just with that but you know, the way I dress, my style, everything," he responded to me as his facial expression changed a bit.

"I guess somewhere along the way I developed this philosophy; what's the point of going through life pretending you don't like what you like or feel how you feel. For people, people suck! Like sure some jerks might be rude, they might judge you and mock you, tease you, but if they treat someone like that just for the way you dress or what, you like the music you listen to any of that then what good are they? What good would be holding back just to appease people who could be so fickle and cruel. At least if you live boldly and proudly, you know that people who love you; love you for you, not some act you put on because you fear rejection or judgement, so man, I just live my life."

I couldn't bring myself to say anything as Alphonse spoke out about his thoughts and opinions. And to be honest, I don't blame him; I understand what he's saying. What point is thereby pretending to be happy or be someone else just by making someone else happy. Someone who could never understand.

"When I was young I was so concerned with people judging me for liking pretty colours, the music I listen to, being in the nerd shit. Then one day it just hit me; I just figure loving myself will always be more valuable than the hollow love of people who only love parts of me, the convenient stuff," he explained while bringing his rant to a close. His words were so moving to me that it made me move closer to him and hold his free hand which took him by surprise.

(I'm going to be honest with everyone here, I really can't remember why this chapter is short. I mean there may have been a reason but I really don't recall anything, I guess I was held back in updating😅)
