20 Years Later (Paultryk)

~1~

*No ones POV*

A quiet morning in the orphanage, most kids were asleep while others play quietly with each other. One kid the age of 6 sat lonely in the corner of the room watching the other kids play. His brows were bushy and his hair messy from just waking up, he sat hugging his knees with his head buried between them. Footsteps could be heard coming near him, he shook but kept quiet as someone sat down next to him. He looked up to see a boy smiling softly at him, his chocolate brown hair waved off into bird like wings. He seemed to be a few inches taller than the short bushy brow kid.

"Hi! Im Patryck but you can just call me Pat. What about you?" The bird boy asked.

"...i um.. im.. Paul" Brow boy replied.

"Its nice to meet you Paul!" Pat looks around and then returns his gaze to Paul. "No friends..?"

Paul looks at the ground a frown on his face and he nods yes.

"Oh.. well i can be your friend!"

Paul looks at Pat shocked "r.. really...?"

"Yeah! Id love to be your friend, you seem like a cool person. Your always quiet and calm unlike most of these kids, and plus i like you!"

Pink tints Paul's cheeks and ears. He smiles slightly giggling "Thanks.. i.. i like you too" (Btw to clear this up, Paul and Pat have seen each other around before but never talked)

Pat smiles and giggles "Lets go play, i don't want you to be alone in this corner with nothing to do."

"Ok"

Paul and Pat stand up, Pat grabs Paul's hand and drags him off to play.

*Timskip to a few weeks later*

"Ow.."

Pat places a bandage over a cut on Pauls cheek and kisses it "better?"

"Mhm" Paul blushes and smiles, hugging pat. "Thanks Pat"

Pat smiles and Paul pulls away from the hug. "Oh! Stay here, ill be back" Paul nods and Pat takes off.

Paul stands there rocking back and fourth waiting for pat when he sees pat running back to him holding a black marker.

"Paul! Gimme your hand" pat says.

Paul listens to pat and holds out his hand to him and pat draws a black ring around Paul's ring finger. "Done!"

Paul looks at pat confused and pat draws the same thing on his ring finger. "Now we're married!

Paul flushes all shades of red and looks at pat shocked. Pat smiles cutely and all Paul could do was smile back. A loud booming voice came from the management desk where people file papers to adopt someone. There sat Tord at the desk shuffling through papers and shoving some into the drawers. Tord stood.

"Alright everyone!" He said. "Get into your bunks, its time for everyone to head off to bed" Tord saluted like he did often and some kids saluted back including Paul and Pat. Tord sat back down.

"We should head to bed, i promise we'll play tomorrow" Pat says and Paul nods.

Paul and pat head to their bunks which were recently moved so they could be bunk buddies, pat on the top bunk and Paul on the bottom one. Even though some nights they would sleep with one another for comfort.

Paul and Pat laid in bed, pat already heading off to sleep while Paul lays there staring at the black ring pat drew. Paul smiles and sighs "We'll always be together..". Paul shut his eyes drifting off to sleep when he heard pat say "Together forever" and they both fall asleep.

*Time skip to the neck morning & Paul's POV*

I wake up and look to my side where id see pat waiting for me to wake, but he was not there. I frown and get out of bed climbing up my bunk thinking pat maybe slept in and once i get to the top i don't see him. "Where is he?"

I climb down and walk around the orphanage hoping to find pat but no luck, I head over to the desk where Tord sits hoping he may know where pat is.

"Uh mister Tord?"

He looks down at me "hmm?"

"Have you seen Pat? He promised to play with me today."

Tords face turns to worry "oh.. uh he.. he isn't here."

"Aw.. when will he be back? Pats been gone forever.. i really miss him" i frown.

"Paul he.. he's not coming back..."

I look up at Tord tears forming in my eyes "wh... what do you m.. mean he's not coming back...?".

"He got adopted paul.. and you didnt" Tord frowns.

"Why did he get adopted and i didnt..?"

Tord looks away and sighs sadly "Because no one wanted you Paul"

I stare at tord tears already running down my cheeks "why..?"

"B.. because-" i cut tord off and scream.

"I WANT PAT!!"

Tord stares at me "i know paul.. im sorry.." he offers a hug but i decline.

"NO! I WANT PAT AND ONLY PAT!!" I run off and back to my bunk and cry.

Tord sighs and goes back to doing his work and i stare at the drawn on ring on my hand "Together forever... but i just got left behind"
And there i sat. Alone once more.

(This was crappy but i hoped you enjoy. Do you feel the feels? cause i do ;))
