Tairon's pov

Monday morning came by. And as I entered the school giggles were heard along with notification ringtones. My phone buzzed. I checked it and saw what caused my heart to skip a beat.

It was a photo of Evan and Aiden kissing.

I felt a bit betrayed, mostly I was mad at Evan and somehow at Aiden too even if I knew it wasn't his fault. Last Friday, I was too tired to fully understand what had happen and I just shrugged it off. But now, seeing how Evan was watching him with lustful eyes, I couldn't take it anymore. Aiden was mine. No one else's and surely it wasn't that fucking bastard was going to take him away from me.

I was more than jealous and it drove me crazy.

I went over to Evan at lunch and threw my punch at him making his nose bleed.

"Don't you dare come close to MY BOYFRIEND again, you fucking bastard!"

"Oh, you've seen the photo."he said with a grin.

I punched him again only to have him doing the same. Our fist fight stopped when some teachers arrived to hold us apart. I was going to get a detention. And there was one thing I didn't mind when I yelled at Evan. I let slip that Aiden was my boyfriend in front of the whole school. What have I done?! My teammates looked at me awkwardly and some people scrunched their nose in disgust. Man have I fucked up...

After my detention, there were still kids in the school. All of them were staring at me and gossiping about me as I walked to the parking lot. As I stepped outside I was greeted by all my teammates and some friends who seemed tense.

"Your boyfriend?"asked Adam one of the football players as they shoved  Aiden who was hidden behind them to the front never losing the grip they had on him.

I looked away.

"So what you're a fag now?"asked Kevin.

I said nothing. I wanted to run away but I was trapped as they were circling me.

"Answer!"

"No I'm not..."

"But you said he was your boyfriend!"said some of them.

"It was a mistake. I messed up words nothing more. He's not my boyfriend..."I said looking down, ashamed of myself.

"So if we show him how fags are treated here, you won't object?"asked Zachary, a supposed friend.

"Uh... No but you don't have to..."

"Yes we do! How can a guy love another guy? Oh my god, were you watching us shower after PE? That's so disgusting! It's a sin, you're a sin!"Adam said turning to Aiden.

I couldn't let that happen.

"Okay, guys... I want to show him too but I'm tired, couldn't that wait until tomorrow?"

"I don't think so. Tairon you used to beat up freaks even if you were tired before, what happened to you?"

"Nothing... It's just that I am really tired I think I might've catch a cold."

They didn't seem pleased with my answer but still they released Aiden who glared at me.

"Okay. Tomorrow then but you'll be the one to beat him first. If you don't we'll assume your a fag too."

I walked to the gates and ran as soon as I was out of sight. I didn't stop running until I was in my bedroom's bathroom, locked and safe.

What have I done? I just have lost my boyfriend! And worse, I have to beat him tomorrow or else the school will know! But I can't beat up Aiden, I love him too much for that!

So what? You prefer your appearance over your boyfriend? Do you really love him or are you just using him? A voice in my head said.

I'm an asshole...

I tried to call Aiden as the little circle near his name was green but no answer. I left voicemails. I typed "please answer me". He saw it but didn't reply. He was mad at me. I could understand why. I chose my fair-weather friends who were ready to beat a guy who loved another one over my boyfriend, him who has been changing my whole life since the day we met at a party.

So I got out. And ran to Chris's house. I  knocked on the door to reveal who I suppose was Chris.

"What do you want?"he asked.

"Hello, I'm Tairon I came to see Aiden."

"So it's​ you?! You totally crushed him! He thought he could trust you! You told that bunch of shitheads he wasn't your boyfriend only to save yourself! How can you do that?! He's always talking about you, saying how you make him happy and you dare do this to him?! You're a motherfucking monster and if you don't get out of my house right now I assure you you won't see another sunrise! You broke his heart, he can't stop crying because of you! I'm not sorry but you can't see him! Now go away!"he yelled.

I stared at him trying to sink in everything he said. As he made a step towards me, I backed away. I glanced a last time at Chris and saw Aiden behind him, cheeks tear-strained and eyes red and puffy. I couldn't see this. I couldn't see him after what I did. Chris was right. I was a monster.

But maybe I could change that. I had an idea.
