James's POV:
I woke up alone and cold to my alarm clock. I looked to my side and saw Juliet looking at me. I got out of bed, forgetting about my hands that bled through the bandages. I groaned and carefully pealed of the bandages. I got into the shower and felt my body relax. Is Mikey mad at me? I washed my body off and then got out of the shower. I grabbed more bandages and wrapped up my hands. I put on Mikey's black sweatshirt that I took from him. I put on my black skinny jeans and my glasses. I put on my black converse and grabbed my backpack. I left my room and left Juliet outside. I hope she's okay alone. I left the house and started my walk to school.
When I walked in I felt like prey. Everybody looked at me and I tried to ignore it while I walked to my locker. I grabbed my stuff and watched as Mikey entered the school. I couldn't help but feel safe. He looked at me quickly and then kept walking away. I was stunned and was pushed into my locker.
"Is he done with you already?" Jason snickered. I wanted to cry. He was right. "That was the shirt he was wearing when he kissed me." He laughed and hit me once in the gut.
"Leave him alone!" I heard Adelaide's voice yell out. I heard Jason's mechanical laugh and then felt him punch me in face. I fell down to the floor and he kicked me in the gut before walking away. "Are you okay?" She asked and grabbed my burnt hand and I yelped and got up on my own.
"Yeah I'm fine, don't worry about me." I mumbled and grabbed my stuff the walked to English. As soon as I walked into the class the bell rang. I walked to my desk and then heard Adelaide walk in and sit next to me.
"What happened to your hands and why didn't Mikey help you?" She asked and I just shrugged. "Did you guys break up?" I shrugged again and she seemed to understand. I jumped hearing the bell go off and quickly made it to my math class. I managed to get there without anybody hurting me. Adelaide walked in while talking to a couple of girls. I grabbed the book Maze Runner and started reading it. I read through all of my classes and lunch and then got ready to go home. As soon as I walked out of my class, I was slammed against a wall.
"Long time no see." I heard Hunters voice. "How are you?" He asked punching me in the stomach. I yelped quietly and he laughed at me. "Pathetic." He spat and the put it hand around my neck. He finally let me go once I felt dizzy and I fell to the ground. And topped it off with another kick to the stomach. I waited a few minutes to get off of the ground and the started my walk home.
I pulled out my phone and texted Mikey. What did I do? I'm really sorry. I pressed send and slipped my phone back into my pocket. When I got home, the house was empty. I let Juliet inside and we walked up to my room. I took off the sweatshirt and looked in the mirror. The purple bruises were already forming around my neck and on my stomach. I never want you to look in the mirror and see anything less than perfection I heard Mikey's voice in my head.
"Then why did you leave?!" I yelled and fell to the ground and started crying. I heard my phone buzz and I grabbed it from the bed. You didn't do anything but I can't talk to you anymore. I'm sorry James. I felt my eyes start to water and I did the one thing I knew that I could.
I walked to my bag and grabbed my blade. I locked the bathroom door and got to work. I didn't want to die yet. I just wanted to feel. I cleaned up and went back to my room. I looked at the time and decided to take Juliet on a walk. I grabbed her leash and we left the house.
It was about a five minute walk and had started snowing. We walked around on a snowy trail and Juliet seemed very happy with the snow. I couldn't help but think about Mikey. But he doesn't want me anymore.
I didn't realize I had started to cry until I felt my tears freeze on my face. I didn't bother wiping them off because nobody was stupid enough to be walking at night while it's snowing. We walked for a while, watching as the snow made a blanket on the ground. We walked back to the house and it was still empty. I pulled off my clothes and cuddled up into my cold bed. Juliet laid down against me and I wrapped my arm around her and fell asleep.
Mikey's POV:
I woke up on my own and got into the shower. I couldn't help but think about James. He is just the best thing that ever happened to me. I washed myself and got out. I put on my green hoodie and a pair of black jeans. I put on my backpack and walked downstairs to see my dad.
"Good morning. Where's mom?" I asked quietly. He glared at me and told me that she was at work. "Okay." I grabbed some left over pancakes and warmed them up.
"Mikey. I need to talk to you." My dad said and I nodded and walked over to him. "If you continue to see or talk to James, it will tear this family apart, I can't have a gay son." He said with a straight face. I nodded, feeling a lump in my throat. It was hard to breathe and I didn't want to argue. "Good, now eat and get to school. I listened and sat down and ate quickly. I can't not talk to James. He is my whole life. I finished my food and practically ran out of the house and to my car.
I made my way to the school and as soon as I walked in I saw James and he smiled weakly at me, but I immediately turned the corner. I went to English and sat in my spot and then tuned out until the end of the day.
When I walked out of my last class, I saw Jason walking up to me and I tried to get away from him, but he grabbed my arm.
"I'm going to make him pay for taking you away from me. I will make him beg me to let him die." Jason said and laughed evilly and walked away from me.
"Jason! What are you going to do to him?" I asked after getting his attention. He smirked at me,
"Don't act like you care Mikey, but it's worse then anything that he has ever gotten." He laughed before leaving the school. What is he going to do to my baby? I can't let him hurt him more. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw James laying on the floor. I can't help him. I quickly left, not wanting to see him hurting anymore.
I drove home and walked in and started making myself dinner, knowing that nobody will be home to cook. I ate the food and then checked my phone. What did I do? I'm really sorry. I stared at the text for a minute before responding. You didn't do anything but I can't talk to you anymore. I'm sorry James. I pressed send and watched a movie in my room. When the movie ended, I felt myself getting tired and got ready for bed. I fell asleep wondering what Jason would do to James.
