Blind love

Chapter 2

Our parents were in the dining room talking and laughing. I was in the kitchen trying to calm Charlie down. This wasn't going to be easy. We slowly walked into the dining room hand in hand.
"Can we talk to you guys, it's kinda important." I said slowly as we sat down. They probably already knew by the way we walked in, but we had to get it off of our chests.
I can feel Charlie squeezing my hand urging me to wait but I couldn't we already came this far we have to tell them now.
"We're gay. And we've been together for almost a year now." I said. My parents weren't surprised nor mad they acted as if they had already known. Charlie's parents however didn't take it that well they immediately start screaming and yelling at him.
"You're going to hell. All of you. And you" she says as she points to my mom "you knew i know you did." She points to Charlie and says "don't bother coming home you aren't welcome at our house we didn't raise you like this. Stupid boy, I hope this is all worth it cause you're going to hell for it." And with that they stormed out. My parents came over to me and Charlie comforting us and all I could think about was Charlie and where he would go.
"Where is Charlie going to go?" I say starting to get even more worried.
Charlie looks up at me with so much pain in his eyes that I couldn't help but cry. I walk over to him holding him in my arms. I look to my parents silently pleading them to let him stay. They caught on pretty quick and gave a quick nod telling me it was okay.
"Hey, hey baby look at me." I say taking his face in my hands. "You can stay here as long as you need I promise you I will never let them hurt you again. Okay?"
"Okay." He says so quietly I almost didn't hear him. I take him back into my arms holding him and protecting him from the world.
