My Golden Eye Boy {Goldric}

I Dont Want To Leave You.

Hunter's POV

I was sat at the kitchen table alone, again at 4 in the morning. I hadn't been able to sleep for two days now, I've been up thinking about how Edric was most likely leaving in a couple of months when he turns 18. I had told him already that I wished he wouldn't go, but every time he says that he needs to get away from him mother. I understand, and I would go with him if it weren't for finally having a family here, mabey I can try again to convince him to stay, mabey we can get a small house together and move in together for our last year of school. Or mabey he will just leave and ill be alone again.

I sighed as a I took a sip of my water, "Couldn't sleep again?" I turned my head to see Edric standing there in the frame of the door smiling. "Yea." I said as he made his way to the chair across from me, he sat down and looked at me with worry in his eyes, "Are you ok Hunter?" I shook my head no and then looked at my glass of water that was sitting in on the table in front of me as to avoid eye contact with my boyfriend. "Do you want to talk about it?" I looked up and said, "Do you really have to leave once you turn 18?"

He sighed as he stood up and walked over to me, "You know the answer. I'm sorry." I stood up so that I was in front of him, "But why? Am I not worth staying for?" Edric looked hurt, I really didn't want him to feel bad but this is how I felt and I needed to let him know before its to late.

"Hunter, why would you say that?" He looked at me in disbelief, "Yea, kinda. I mean am I not enough of a reason to stay?" He looked down at his feet and then back up at me, "I love you to the moon and back, you know that. Its just complicated." I laughed a bit because I was getting frustrated with him, "How's it complicated? Its really that complicated to choose leaving over just staying with your boyfriend?"

"If I stay anywhere here then I'm still near my family and even though I love my sisters and dad, the memories are still here of a broken family and a life I never liked. So its not like I want to leave you, I swear I don't, but I have to for my own sanity." I looked at him with tears in my eyes that I didn't even know I had coming down my face at the moment. "Oh, Hunter please don't cry. This is just something I have to do, its not like we're breaking up or anything, and plus if  your ever ready to leave this place, you can come live with me and we can live the life we always wanted together."

I smiled slightly at hearing that, "I guess, maybe eventually I will be ready but right now I'm just enjoying having the family I never had." Ed smiled and said, "I understand. I will be waiting for you when your ready, until then we can talk on the phone and I can come visit you whenever you want or you can come visit me to." I smiled again at the factor that I wouldn't completely be losing my boyfriend, just things would be changing significantly but that's ok. "Ok, that sounds like a plan." Edric then kissed me on the cheek and said, "I love you." "I love you to." I said back.

"Are you ready to go back to bed now? I bet your tired." He held his hand out for me to take, "Yea, lets go." We both walked back to our room {They are still at Alador's house at this point} and fell asleep instantly knowing that we had a plan now and I was ok with it.

{Authors Note: I know its been a while, but I'm finally getting or trying to get back to how I used to feel before all my medical problems came up, so I'm trying to write more and all that. I also decided that I would be doing a youtube video soon where I read this fan fiction out loud, yea I've decided to be super cringe and do that but purely for my own entertainment but if y'all get a laugh out of it then I accomplished something lol. Anyways as always thank you for reading and I hope you have an amazing rest of your day.
