"There's something 'bout you that makes my skies blue!"

Simon's P.O.V.

"Please Josh, I really do care about you. I went against all of my friends. I left my girlfriend. I'd give up anything for you. Anything. Just please tell me what's going on." I asked as I grabbed his cheek and wiped away the tears.

I kissed him on the lips, but this time it was different then before. It was harsh, passionate, full of love. I pulled away to see his beautiful green eyes. They were full of sorrow, but joy. Full of worry, but full of safety.

"I didn't move here, because it was easier for my mum or because she got a better job offer. I moved here, I moved here...." He said before he started to panic.

I grabbed his head and pulled him into my chest holding him as close as humanly possible.

"Shh, you're okay." I said as he calmed down and he looked up at me.

His eyes were a gray color this time. But this time he seemed open.

"My dad was different. He wasn't like the others. He could see color. My mum and I, well we all tried to keep it a secret. It was something I had to keep my whole entire life. Then one day I met this boy, Cal, people called him Lux. He was the dreamiest boy I had seen. I fell for him and all of his tricks right away. I went too fast. I thought he loved me, I thought...... I thought I could trust him. What I didn't know, was that I couldn't. That's why it took me so long to trust you. Anyway, I decided to tell Cal about my dad, so that I could finally open up, that was a humongous mistake. My father ended up being taken away. My mum and I waited hours upon hours upon hours to see him walk home. The worst part is when you see the news and you see that your dad was killed for being a color. Then when I met you I started to see all of these colors and now, what if I get murdered and taken away from my mum. Simon I can't do that to her. I love you, I truly do, but that's what happened to him. Exactly. I can't, I can't lose my mom, I can't..... I can't lose you Simon." He said as all of that just came all at once I didn't know how to react.

I didn't know what to say.

"Come here." Was all I could say as I held him in the alleyway.

After a little while we got up and I walked him home. He was a complete and utter mess. All I could do was be there for him. Nothing more, nothing less.

"What happened?" His mum said as she ran to the door.

"I'm so sorry-"

"It's not Simon's fault mum, don't blame him. It's the jerks at school. You saved me Simon." He said looking up at me.

I realized that all of the colors stayed. No matter what. I could see everything. I could see that the walls of Josh's house were a beige color. I could tell that Josh's mums outfit was all blue.

"I want to say that I'm sorry, Josh told me about your husband, his dad. I could never imagine what that was like. I can't imagine it at all. But the thing is, is that I'm not that Cal guy. I'm a completely different person. I didn't leave him today. I stayed right by his side, because I love him. I know we aren't suppose to love, but this boy makes my world go crazy. I'm starting to see color, he makes my skies blue. It's all so beautiful and I know this might be worrisome but I've never felt this way towards anyone." I said as she looked at Josh and then at me.

She slowly walked over to me and hugged me.

"Thank you." She whispered as I just hugged her tighter.

"Thank you too." I whispered back.

"I trust you and all, but I think Josh has gone through enough for today, anyway you still have school and I wouldn't want your parents to worry about you. Thank you so much." She said as I nodded and said goodbye to Josh and left their house.

As I walked down the street I looked at all of the beautiful colors. I looked up to the sky, god is the world a beautiful place. If only the world was filled with beautiful people. People like Josh.
