Till My Heart Stops

Chapter 1

Chapter 1
Third person P.O.V.

Blaine Milligan limped towards his front door, his whole body on fire. The bullies from school had found him. After school they beat him up worse than they regularly do.They had thrown tons of kicks and punches at the boy for a solid 20 minutes leaving Blaine unable to move at all. Blaine knew that he had to get up and get home. Blaine knew he was going to be late if he didn’t,and then his dad would get angry and Blaine didn’t think that he could take another beating today.But the bullies had messed him up pretty bad today because what should have been a ten minute walk took him nearly 2 hours.

When he had reached the door,he could already hear his dad from inside.There was smashing and Blaine  knew that his dad was drunk yet again.But this also had meant that his mom wasn’t home and she was working late so his dad was free to hurt him anyway he wants. He had never done it when Blaine’s mom was around. When his mother was around he was a good dad but once she was gone all his anger had taken over.

Blaine had slowly pushed the door open and the smashing of plates had stopped immediately.He closed the door very quietly in hope that his dad wouldn’t notice him,but of course he was all out of luck.His dad turned to him,his face red with anger.

“Where have you been boy??!!”
“I-I” Blaine stammered but his dad had interrupted him.
“Save it!!” His dad yelled grabbing his shirt and slamming him to the ground.

The breath was knocked out of Blaine,and before he could even think about pleading for him to stop,his dad had a hold of his shirt again and he was slammed up against the wall.He whimpered out in pain,pretty sure that his ribs were broken.

“Quiet you worthless piece of shit!!” his dad instructed,punching him right square in his jaw. Blaine collapsed to the ground,his breathing was quick and short.”Get up to your room,I don’t want to see you again for the rest of the night. Now!!!”

Blaine nodded frantically ,and escaped his dad’s grasp before running up to his room.He slammed the door and slid down it,ignoring the pain in his chest.What did he ever do to deserve this shit? Why couldn’t his dad just love him?

Because you’re gay

You’re a waste of space

You’re a failure of a son

Blaine sighed sadly,and wiped away his tears with his sleeve.He stood up,and walked over to his drawer.He pulled it open,the first thing he saw was a photo of him when he was four years old,sitting on his dad’s lap with a huge grin on his face.Nobody had ever seen that smile anymore,he didn’t smile,at least not anymore.There was nothing to smile for.

He put the picture back and reached for what was under it, his song book. He went over to the corner of his room “the writing corner” as he calls it. Blaine opened it and he started writing anything that came to his mind and put it into a small song.

And I've lost who I am, and I can't understand.
Why my heart is so broken, rejecting your love, without, love gone wrong, lifeless words carry on.
But I know, all I know, is that the end's beginning.
Who I am from the start, take me home to my heart.
Let me go and I will run, I will not be silent.
All this time spent in vain, wasted years, wasted gain.
All is lost, hope remains, and this war's not over.
There's a light, there's the sun, taking all shattered ones.
To the place we belong, and his love will conquer all. [x2]

Yesterday I died, tomorrow's bleeding.
Fall into your sunlight.

After a few hours of endless crying and writing Blaine just changed into his pajamas and fell fast asleep.
