Laurens, Do Not Throw Away Your Shot

4~How Could I Do This!?

(Johns POV)

*ring ring ring*

"Hello?"

"John, I need to talk to you"

"Henry? What do you want?"

"Well, what I need you to do is very simple. Come home—"

"No"

"Or I'll hurt, maybe even kill your boyfriend..."

"W-what? No, you can't!"

"Yes I can, so do what I ask and he lives to fight another day"

"F-fine"

"Okay, great. I'll see you tomorrow, any later and there will be consequences"

"...."

*click*

I pressed end call with my hands trembling. I was now sobbing uncontrollably, why!? Why would he do this!?

Alex, my love, my life, my everything, my husband—..... My son....

My son!

What am I going to do, what am I going to say? I can't just leave without explanation, but I can't tell him either.

No, no, no!

"Babe, are you okay?" Alex asked, putting a hand on my shoulder.

I jumped, startled by his touch.

"I-i'm fine" I stuttered, trying not to choke on my words.

Alex nodded and entered Philips bedroom where he was currently napping.

"Is daddy okay?" Philip asked Alex

Oh, I guess he's not napping...

"I'm not sure" Alex muttered

*ding*

I got a text

Henry: Good news, I have your appointments already set up!

Me: What appointments???

Henry: Straight therapy of course, no son of mine will be a fag.

Of course, that's why he wants me home. Well little did he know, I was legally married to a man. A man that I loved more than anything. I had a kid, a job, a house. He should be proud of me. If he can't handle me being gay than he shouldn't be my father... I wish he wasn't my father.

While Alexander was taking a shower and Philip was eating lunch, I went into our bedroom and started packing. I packed all of my clothes except one of my hoodies, mostly became it was in the dirty laundry and I didn't feel like fishing it out. I packed my other personal items and was done. I pushed the suitcase under the bed. I would leave at nightfall...

I started to cry again because I pictured how Alex would react, how would Philip react?

I would just be another person in his life who left him. He would think it was his fault, he would never understand why!

I sobbed even harder but tried to keep it down so Alex wouldn't hear.

*Time Skip*

After putting Philip to bed I crawled in bed with Alex, I twirled his hair between my fingers and waited for his breaths to become steady.

"Goodbye my love" I whispered before writing a note for Philip to find later. I hid the note under his mattress.

Then I left...

I pulled out my phone and purchased a plane ticket to South Carolina.

There's no turning back now...

I walked to the airport and waited till morning.

I miss Alex...

Oh god, tomorrow my life is going to be horrible the minute I get to South Carolina, I'm going to get seduced by a stranger that I'm going to hate. Well good luck bitch, I'm gay as hell.

Wait... I have an idea!
