Todd's pov
It all started when me and Billy became bound by a secret. Billy's brother had tried to steal from the florist but I caught him. Billy tried to stop me from calling the police. Once I had the police on the line Billy took my phone and hung up then he had to explain.
"Billy, what are you doing?" I asked.
"Please don't tell the police Todd I can't let him go to prison." Billy replied with a shaky voice.
"Why not? Who is he Billy?"
"He's... He's my brother please don't call the police."
I had no idea Billy even had a brother he had never mentioned any family at all really.
"Since when did you have a brother?" I wonder. I'm quite confused.
"Since he was born. Don't tell any one. He's a heroin addict."
"Billy." I say with soft sympathetic eyes.
Billy starts telling me his life story. I feel really sorry for him. He had a homophobic father, I can't even imagine what that must have been like.
"When my dad got ill. I went to go see him to make peace. As soon as he saw me he flipped and kicked me out."
"Lee has got to understand that."
"He didn't know. Then dad died and Lee went off the rails."
I could see he was stugglimg so I got up and got us a cuppa to calm him down a bit. Also it gave him a bit of a break.
"He's been turning up for a while now demanding money." Billy mentioned with tears in his eyes.
"He then goes and blows it on the drugs then."
"Yeah. I've tried to get him to live at mine but he's not having it."
"Does he not need a professional?"
"I've rang around a few rehab places to see what they've got to offer bit they all say that he needs to want to come off drugs."

I take Billy to have a drink in the bistro. I hope this will calm him down and stop him from feeling really guilty over Lee.
"You didn't need me bending your ear. I'm sorry." Billy apologies even though he didn't need to.
"Hey come on we both know I dragged it out of ya."
"I can rely on you to keep this to yourself, right?"
"Ahh this is top gossip it's my duty to spread it."
Billy gives me a worried face and I laugh.
"Stop stressing. I can keep it zipped when I want." I laugh at him and he smiles back. He thanks me and then leaves to go see his boyfriend Sean. Oh I wish he wasng going out with Sean. He has been a good mate to me over the last few years and liking his boyfriend makes me fell really guilty.

Sorry this is really bad it's my first fan fiction and English has never really been my subject.
