Once Upon A Life

Boyfriend

Pov Mitch

*ring*

"Arg...fucking school" I quietly mumbled under my breath as I started let my mind wander

So many people..all having hate for me except the select few..oh look..here comes Matt.

"Heyyy! If it isn't my lil' bro, Mitchie!! Looking good, baby boy" Matt said a little too excitedly.

Matt's tall, about 6'1. He has his hair shaggy and dyed a bright purple. He has these gorgeous bright blue eyes that light up every time he see's a friend. Today he's wearing his normal outfit, ripped skinny jeans and a tank top that matches his hair.

"Me? Look good? Haha, don't make me laugh. Now you're the good looking one!" I say looking him up and down.

Damn....he looks hot.

"Hmm..Mitchie's being flirty today" Jade said as she walked up to us and winked at me

"Well isn't he always? Like..look at that smile, and that blush of his. It's just screaming flirty and cute!" Matt spoke as he wrapped his one arm around my shoulder, looking down at me

"Matt!" I said playfully pushing him away "jerk.."

Matt just kinda chuckled..

"Matt, come walk me to class!" I yelled at him & started walking

"Okay, wait up!" He started running after Me to catch up to him

*after school*

"Hey, we goin to the old spot tonight?" Jade asked

"Sure, better invite the whole group tonight, though." I quietly said while running my hand through my messy hair

"I'll do it" quickly replied Matt while sending a text to the rest of the gang "great, lets head there now"

We started walking to our spot, the spot we always hung out at when we were kids. It was surrounded by a fence so no one really butted into our business. We got there after a while then hoped the fence and found the rest of our friends there.

"Hey, John! Hey, Hope!" I said to our friends

"Hey" they both said together then quickly giving the other a look.

"God....today was a bitch!" Matt complained walking over to me and ruffling my hair

"hell it was!" I agreed pulling out a pack of cigarettes and running my hand through my hair in attempt to fix it.

"Mitch..I thought you quit smoking..?" Jade quietly said barely being heard

"Eh, I missed it" I quickly said starting to climb up the old oak tree going higher then I have ever gone before. I sat down and lit a cigarette inhaling deeply. I eventually let my head drop into my hands and before I knew it, tears were streaming down my face.

Fuck....I can't cry..not now...not ever. Why are people like that to me? Why do they call me those things? Fag, bitch, gay, dense, fuck up, fat, ugly, and so..so much more

"...Mitch?" I heard someone saying my name & I quickly looked up at them almost falling off the tree, but they grabbed me before I fell....it was Matt.

"I.....thanks" I slowly said whipping at my eyes hoping he wouldn't notice

"There's no need to hide from me.." He quietly whispered to me as he wrapped his arms around me "everyone went home...please tell me what's wrong"

I just burst out crying, I started to cry into his shoulder, he just pulled me closer and held on to me.

"..I love you, Mitch. I do"

I slowly pulled away "w-what?"

"I love you." He repeated

"I love you too" I said not sure what to do

"Mitch, I'm gay. I love you." He said quivering, not sure how I'd react

"Matt, I'm bisexual. I love you too" I said looking into his eyes.

Those eyes....I love them. I love him. He's the one who's here for me when I need him...the others sometimes are..but always he is. I found myself slowly leaning closer to him. My eyes shut and our lips were connected. His hand was on my cheek running his thumb against it. I've never felt more at home. No.. He is my home. We pulled away after a minute..I didn't want it to end....but wait...what about Jade?

"Mitch.." He quietly said

"Mhmm?" I hummed as I did not trust my voice

"Will you be my boyfriend?"

My heart stopped. I was looking into these eyes of his seeing if he was serious..and he was. I wanted to say something but I couldn't my voice wouldn't work.

Eventually I stuttered "...yes."
