the truth beneath our stars (henpat)

0.7

henry drove to the police station, it was midnight at that time and he felt a mixture of relief and anger. he wasnt as honest as he sounded.

when he walked inside, the police walked up to him.
"so, who did it?" the police looked at eachother and looked back at henry.
"henry bowers, you are under arrest for harassment aswell as 3 other offenses. anything you say and do will be used against you in court."
henry looked at patrick in disbelief.
"it wasn't me! let me fucking go!" henry tried to kick off the officers but eventually stopped.

patrick was at loss of words. he didnt think henry would ever do that, he was the one worried about his career anyways. when he went back home, he broke down. victor was there to comfort him, something was off about him.

he went to go visit henry a week after.
"hey henry.."
henry looked at patrick.
"hey."
"i know it wasnt you.." patrick said, putting his hand up to the glass.
"i know, i wish they could believe that."
henry put his hand on the glass.
"i want them to release you. i missed you."

when i got home a surprise was awaiting me.
"victor? why are you at my house.?"
he was sitting on the couch, my little brother was sitting next to him.
"oh, hey patrick. i heard henry went to jail. i feel terrible for you.."
"oh quit the fucking acting..i know you falsely accused him."
"what..i would never do that!"
i rolled my eyes at him.
"you can stop pretending now victor, it wont fix anything."
he got up.
"fine, i did accuse him. and i recorded the tape."
i was shocked. i felt like i wanted to punch him.
"why?"
"god patrick, your so naive. ever since we were little you had gotten all the attention, you had good parents and a great life. when we met i was over the moon to have my first friend, but it turned into jealousy. i wanted you to finally get what you've deserved all those years ago. i uploaded the tape online so you could suffer." he said, walking up to me.
"fuck you victor.." i punched him and quickly our fight turned bloody, my brother was watching us the whole time.
"stop it patrick! don't hurt each other!" avery yelled, crying as he did so.
i was on top of victor, punching him with all my strength. he stopped hitting me so i got up. i called the police to let them know what happened and they immediately got to my house.
"we got into a bit of a fight. he took the video and uploaded it, he was also the one that accused henry." they put victor in handcuffs and drove off with him, i drove behind them with my little brother.

"well henry bowers, you are now released." henry ran over to patrick and gave him a tight hug.
"hey patrick, thanks for getting me out."
"its no big deal, and everyone is forgetting about the sex tape." henry looked at patrick.

"actually..i've agreed its best that we forget about- us. its best for my career to forget about you, people will never remember that happened. my lawyer told the press that it wasn't me in the video, im so sorry patrick.." henry walked away and left, his secretary and new assistant walking behind him.
patrick had no idea what just happened. henry was full of shit saying that he loved him and would never leave him. he would never change, patrick envied him.
