I was in the locker room with Torin and I removed my shirt exposing my toned, and muscular chest, my long stab wound that was almost done healing and the newly formed burn mark. Torin's eyes widened when he saw my chest. Honestly, I didnt know if it was because of the long stab wound or because I was muscular. I mean Im not that muscular, but I do have quite a bit of muscle on me.

I narrowed my eyes looking at Torin. "What? Stop staring at me." I said feeling self conscious and hurried up and put my shirt on.

"What happened to your chest?" Torin asked me in a small voice.

"I... I got stabbed." I said I already had my gym shorts on.

Torin looked up at me his big chocolate brown eyes worried. "How did it happen?" He asked.

I stared off into the distance slightly thinking about the night I had gotten stabbed. Not even Emily Rose had asked that question. As I tried thinking about what happened to me there was like a wall that was blocking me from the answer. I gave up when my head started to hurt. I shrugged look back at Torin. "I honestly, forget." I told him.

Torin looked disappointed, but he didnt push me. I liked that about Torin. Torin knew when to mind his own business. I also liked that he was gay and told you how he felt about you or someone else. He always told the truth even when it was blunt. He was medium sized maybe 5'10, skinny as a rail with a little bit of muscle, kind of pasty skin toned, big chocolate brown eyes that always looked sad, and short spiked blond hair. His face was pimple free and for a guy he always smelled good. Ok, look Im not gay or bisexual or anything, but if I was I would totally date him. He was such a nice guy. I mean he liked me, but then again Im guessing the only reason he likes me is because he cant have me.

"Come on, Torin buddy..." I smiled and helped him up off the bench and held his hand out to the gym. I honestly didnt care if I looked gay.

"Honey, people are going to think your gay." Torin whispered softly to me.

I looked at him. "I dont care and we both know Im not. I like Emily Rose." I said.

Torin nodded. "I know that. I know she likes you too." He said looking at me.

"I... She's very special to me." I said and I dropped Torin's hand.

Torin smiled. "I know fine ass, but dont you think she would get mad if she saw us holding hands?" He asked me again.

I shook my head. "No, I dont think so.... She might be very protective of me towards girls, but I dont think she would mind with you because your her best friend." I said and started to stretch.

"You care about her dont you?" He asked me again and I turned to look at him.

"I... I dont know. I mean she did save my life after all." I shrugged.

"Did she? Tell me what happened?"

"I got stabbed, I passed out, and I guess she found me in an ally. She took me home and fixed me up." I shrugged and looked down in thought, trying to think if I could remember anything more. I looked up again. "Yea, thats pretty much it." I said to him.

"Hmm... Interesting." Torin said scratching the end of his chin.

That was when I saw Emily Rose and I smiled big. She was the only one I could ever truely smile for. She came up to me and interlocked our fingers together. "Hey." She smiled looking up at me.
