Chapter Seventeen

"It's not fair!"

"Shh," I kiss the top of my lover's soft head. He's been like this for hours and I don't know what to do to fix it.

What do you say after your boyfriend's dad wants both of you dead?

I'm sorry?

He isn't worth our time?

"He got to cheat on mom and break both our hearts! Now suddenly I'm the bad guy for being in love?!" Teddy balls both his hands into tiny fists.

While it's nice hearing about how much he loves me I'd give anything for his father to accept us, except leave Teddy. I'm not leaving after it took so long to get him. I thought our troubles would go away once we got together. Now I have Jason's threats and whatever Teddy's dad may do. He won't act on his feelings...right?

"Teddy, don't worry about it okay." I pull him into a hug but he pushes me away in frustration.

"No it won't! My own dad wants me dead!"

"I'm sure he didn't mean it."

"You don't know my father." He scoffs. "He means what he says, oh except all the times he said he loved mom and I. Yeah he didn't mean that."

Teddy pushes out of the kitchen and collapse onto the couch. Bear, who was already on the couch, cuddles next to him. I watch as Teddy loving pets the dog.

I join the two.

"What's wrong about two guys being together? Tell me Brian. Why can I love a woman and be unhappy but as soon as I'm happy with another man it's so bad? No one else cares! Just him."

I wipe the tear falling down his cheek off with my thumb. "I don't know." My own eyes grow watery. I know what he feels, I've felt with my parents hating me. It makes you feel like you were a mistake and that you shouldn't even be alive. I don't want Teddy feeling the pain I felt. He deserves to be happy.

We deserve to happy.

"So you think you can just get away with it?"

I freeze at the angered voice.

This was coming. I knew it was. And i was planning, waiting for it. But now that its here I'm not ready for it.

"Go away." I don't turn to look at Jason, instead I continue walking.

Where am I walking to again?

When did I even get here?

Where am I?!

"I don't think so." He hisses, and suddenly a hand is gripping my wrist tightly. I struggle to pull away from him, knowing I'm much too weak to actually get away.

"Let me tell you a little story." Jason slams me into one of the brick walls of a building. He pins me against it, leaving me defenseless. "Once there was two boys who loved each other very much."

I gran in pain as he pushes me harder against the cold wall.

Maybe if I just screamed, someone...someone would have to come save me!

I open my mouth and let out a loud scream.

Jason smirks. "No one is coming Brian, no one is going to save your weak ass."

I feel a warm sticky tear run down my cheek. I'm not crying for myself, I'm crying for what's going to happen to Teddy after Jason kills me. I know he's going to, maybe then he's going to kill Teddy too. Jason is crazy, he wouldn't be doing this if he wasn't.

"Now be a good boy and let me finish."

I remain silent.

"Those two boys were living perfectly, nothing could come between them. However," his grip on my wrists tighten, "one day this little fucker showed up. The whole town thought he was just so great, and how it was so sad that he had been alone for so long. Poor Brian! He's been all alone! He's so cute too! We all love Brian."

I feel Jason's hands shaking around my wrists.

"I-I'm sorry." I mumble softly, feeling guilty as fuck.

He rolls his eyes. "Then they found out Brian liked Teddy. Suddenly everyone was like 'Aw, Teddy and Brian! So cute!' 'Why is Teddy with that gross Jason, he's a bastard.' 'He doesn't deserve to be happy. He's a bad guy.'" An angry tear rolls down his cheek.

"Jason, I-"

He cuts me off by punching me square in the jaw. I hiss in pain and clutch my throbbing cheek. With ease he throws me onto the ground. I'm too dizzy to stand up and face him so I stay down.

"Please don't hurt him." I whimper as he kicks me in the gut. I can't take much more and I need to save Teddy. Even if that means I die.

"Oh I'm not going to hurt Teddy."

I sigh in relief, however as soon as I see the crazed gleam in his eyes my heart begins to pound again.

"It won't hurt at all. I'll make it nice a quick."

"No!" Shakily, I get to my feet. I wipe off the blood from the cut on my forehead. "You don't touch him."

"What are you going to do about it?" He smirks evilly, like one of the villains in a Disney movie.

"S-stop you." I knew my chances against Jason are slim but like I said before, I'd die for Teddy's safety.

Before I can realize what is happening Jason's fist is flying towards my face. Once again I'm lying on the concrete, a metallic smell overwhelms my nose. Jason stands over me. "Good luck trying to save him when you're dead." I make out something long and metal sliding out of his pocket.

A gun.

"P-please." I bite down on my lip as he cocks it and presses the cool gun to my forehead. I hear the click of trigger and everything goes dark.

I wake up in a cold sweat.

It was a dream.

Oh thank god!

I roll over to wrap my arm around Teddy, only something is terribly wrong.

He's gone.
