High school love story (Boyxboy)

Chapter 3

The next few days went as followed; I would walk up to school and would be immediately be joined by Allen and Eli or Elizabeth. Then they would walk with me to my locker and then to class they acted like my guard dogs. I never understood why until the friday of that week. I was getting my stuff just about to go home when she came up to me. She would be ashley and she had her dog kevin on a close leash. Ashley said words that were so hurtful it felt like she ripped my heart right out my chest but to be honest with you i think the most hurtful thing she said to me was "Devon will love you, you wanna know why? because he's straight and not only that he's mine. Thats right he loves me!".Then kevin hit me. He hit me several times and he kept hitting me until he stopped i'm not sure when or why he stopped because at that point i blacked out.
the next thing i know i'm waking up on my bed. Except it wasn't my bed. I then started freaking out having a major panic attack. "wow there calm down it's gonna be fine" Devon said. wait why is devon talking to me? is this heaven? oh god im dead!!!!!! "where am I" I asked to whoever. "Your at my house silly" elizabeth answered. I carefully sat up and opened my eyes to see elizabeth,allen, and devon all staring at me. Slowly I begin to remember the events leading up to this and i could help myself. I started crying like a big baby. Then two arms quickly wrapped themselves around me and rocking me whispering to how it will be okay in my ear. As soon as i heard his voice I knew it was him it had to be but i look up just in case and sure enough there was Devon looking down at with those soft brown chocolate eyes and that big smile of his. Then remembering what ashly said i scrambled out of his arms and started to cry again. He quickly walked over to me asked what was wrong. " ashly she said that you would never love me because you were straight and that you love her and she right because you are and you do." "Baby don't listen to her she's just mad and jealous because i broke up with her and i told her i was gay." I pinched myself because this had to be dream. Its was just too good to be true, i'll just close my eyes and i'll wake up and this whole thing will be a dream. Oh my god it's true because here i am staring at devon who still happens to be gay. a cell phone went off and it turned out to be my mom calling "honey are you okay?" my mom said in a frantic voice "yes mom i'm just at a friends house" "okay hun you need to be home soon dinner's almost ready goodbye" my mom said and hung up "um can when of you drive me home?" I asked "sure " devon replied.
The car ride was very awkward and i was quiet because neither of us knew what to talk about. i mean when the love of your life comes out as gay to you what are you supposed to say to him. Oh hi so now that you're gay do you like me? do you want to go out or kiss or something? Oh thank god this car ride is over I swear I was going to have a panic attack. "Hey carter I know this isn't a very romantic place to ask you... But do you wanna go out with me sometime like to the movies or go get coffee?" AHHHHH! What!!! OH MY GOD? IS THIS EVEN REAL LIFE!! "Of course I..... Yeah sure" I had to stop mid sentence there and try and play it off cool. Devon just chuckled and gave me his phone so I could give him my number. I then quickly got out of his car because I was about to start screaming in delight and I was crazy blushing. "Oh hello sweetheart, I forgot to mention that your aunt Ruth is here and staying for dinner" mom called as I walked in. I thought to myself why couldn't I just have 5 minutes of pure happiness.
Dinner was a complete disaster. This time it wasn't even my fault. My aunt would not stop bragging about how her son just got into medical school, and how her daughter just got engaged to a handsome young lawyer, who just knows so many other male lawyers and doctors. My parents since only having me who was an average kid, I mean don't get me wrong I'm a straight A student and all I just don't have a plan in life right now. I mean it took me 16 years to even get asked out! Also if you wondering my sister is in college she's actually going to Stanford it's just my parents don't know that because they kinda lost contact with her before she got her acceptance letter. So after a while I kinda tune out and started daydreaming about how me and devons date will go, and are second and third, and what would happen to us when the fact of college came around and how we deal with it. "So what are your plans for the future carter?" My aunt carefully asked me " huh? Oh I'm not sure yet I was thinking about the medical field." Totally not what I wanted to do with my life. What I really want to be was a creator with music, art, and writing. 
Something I never told my parents was how much I wanted to just create things. I actually have a couple stories and movies I made won contests. I just have always loved the thought that maybe I could create something helpful to the world. I want to write stories that people can read and get lost in them and also help them through tough times. I want write and sing and play songs that take people to a different place and make them just feel loved. I want to draw and paint things that when people look at them the know that there was a time in place when that's what their feelings looked like. I want to make movies that make people laugh and and cry and seem so realistic that it feels like they're going through the story with them feelings every emotion that the main character is feeling. But how I got to the place I am right now is another story for another day. Now let's get back to the one about love.
"Medical? What type are you thinking to going into? Surgical perhaps?" My abut pressed. "Well yes I've helped out in a few hospitals and they say I have the nack for it, and my science teacher thinks I'm a natural for the medical field." All lies but my parents seem to go along with it "yes, all of carter's teachers seem to just adore him!" My mom says I way of yes my kid is just that great. "Well if you'll excuse I must be heading out to return to my studies, mom, dad, aunt Ruth would you like me to take your plates in and I'll be sure to wash them after I study I have a very big test tomorrow." They all nodded their head yes. So I quickly gathered up their plates "that's my boy always such a gentleman" I heard my mom bragg as I walk into the kitchen. I really hope my parents know I was lying when I said I was going to study and wash the dishes because I quickly ran up to my room and put my headphones in and turned up my music to tune out my aunt and mom argue about whose kid is better my mom would surely win if she knew what my sister was doing right now. God I really miss here I have to plan on seeing her sometime soon thankfully my parents to send me to go see her every so often.
