Mike's pov
I walked into the court room, the cuffs diging into my wrist. I saw Tony and sat on my side. My cuffs were removed and I took his hand.
"I love you." He whispered.
"I love you, too." I replied. The judge hit that hammer thing on the wood.

"Gerard threatened me. He found out about my boyfriend. And where I work, I'll get fired if I date the same sex. So, I keep it a secret. I don't want to get fired because I have to pay my brother rent. I didn't want to do it."
"So someone blackmailed you?"
"Yes, your honour."
"Is your boyfriend here?" she asked. He stood. "You've been here before."
"To get my name and gender changed." He answered. He got swore in and stood beside me.
I took his hand and he smiled at me. I slipped my hand around his waist and pulled him close.
~~
"Not guilty." the judge said. "You're free to go."
"Thank you." I replied. I wrapped my arms around Tony and kissed him. He kissed back. "So, what happened while I was gone?" I asked as we walked out.
"Nothing much. But I lost my pills. I can't find them. Remember the night we talked?" I nodded. "Well, I fell asleep. Then when I went to take them, I couldn't find them."
"Itll be okay, Tony turtle. I promise." I said as we went to his house. He smiled and nodded. He kissed my cheek.
