I was born with type two diabetes and recently the doctors told me that I'd have to start taking insulin shot.

I've always been a healthy child, and my house was at its best, except for the diabetes part I had no choice in.

But it is what it is. I have it and now I have to deal with it.

Even though I've had diabetes for all my life, it's never been a topic I love to discuss because as soon as people know you're diabetic, they treat you and a whole different way which I hate.

It makes me feel weak since people give you extra attention and make you feel like you aren't able to do normal things which you are.

It's diabetes for Christ sake not cancer.

Anyways, back to the topic my insulin shots. I have to start taking them before or after my meals and I know it's going to sound weird but I hate needles.

And now I have to push one into me, every day.

"Babe you okay?" I hurt my boyfriend say after knocking on the bathroom door "mhmm yea"

"Okay..did you take your shot yet?" He said and it took me a little longer to answer "no"

"Can I come in?" He asked "sure" I was sat on the toilet with seat down. "Hi" Javon smiled "hey"

"You okay?" He asked sitting in front of me his back to the wall. "I don't want to take it" I said juggling the shot between my fingers. 

Javon placed his hands on mine which made me look at him "you can do it" he said "I..can...can you do it?"

Javon's eyes softened and he pecked my lips "if you want me too" "I do" Javon got on his knee and moved the strings from the whole of my ripped jeans.

I held his hand and he kissed mine "one..two..th-" Javon pressed the needle in and I squeaked in surprise.

"All done" he said "baby!" "Sorry I know this is the only way to do it" he said "you tricked me" I pouted.

"I love you" he said and got up giving me his hand "now come on pretty girl let's go eat" he helped me up and took me out of the bathroom and into the kitchen.

We sat down at the table with his family and started eating. Javon placed his free hand on my leg and squeezed it a little.

This was his way of reminding me he loved me. I smiled and squeezed his hand lightly.

I looked up at him and saw that both of us were smiling wildly.

I'm so lucky to have him as my boyfriend.
