I Love You Benja (merome)

Chapter 3: accept it?

Jerome's P.O.V

I hear the the rushing of the water from the shower suddenly stop which means that Mitch was done. I suddenly feel a pair of arms reach around me. I could smell the familiar scent of maple syrup and I instantly know it is Mitch. "Hey Mitch". Mitch just replies with a "hey dood". I turn around and notice that Mitch is just in boxers. I see his six pack and once he notices that I am looking at him he puts a smirk on his face. "So Mitch I was wondering if I could tell my parents about us." "sure I don't care I'll tell my parents later."

(P= parents, J=Jerome)

J-hey guys just letting you know that me and Mitch are dating and I am very happy with him. I hope you can accept us.

P- That is great Jerome and we support whatever decision you make. Just a secret between us Mitch told us his love for you in grade school when he moved away. He said his love for you would be everlasting he just didn't know how to tell you.

J-I didn't know he liked me then.

P-Well we have to go so bye love you Jerome.

J-Ok bye guys love you.

I notice that Mitch ha left the room and had went to the living room. I leave him alone because he seems to be thinking about something. I just take a little nap.

Mitch's P.O.V

I don't know if I told you guys but I used to cut my arms because I was afraid of Jerome not loving me. As I think about me cutting I can almost feel the sharp razor against my skin ripping it apart. I can almost feel the warm sticky substance of blood dripping down my arms and the stinging pain of water hitting my wound before wrapping it up. After Jerome said he would be my boyfriend I vowed to not cut again. I threw away my razor before I got in the shower and I must say that it feels as if a chain has been lifted from me chest. But now that I have Jerome I just realized that is all I need in my life to be happy.
