we decided to leave the park about half an hour later, everyone wanting to get lunch somewhere together.

we started walking away from our spot, everyone still in light and cheery conversations, jacob and i silently walking hand in hand with them.

"is that that blind freak?"

"gross does he have a boyfriend? that's fucked up hes holding his hand."

i heard two guys say from not too far away, making quiet gagging noises, clearly not meaning for me to hear it.

no one else heard it though and kept walking, me and jacob seemed to be the only ones who heard it. i stopped walking, taking in what i'd just heard, shocked, while jacob tried to ignore it and keep walking.

he immediately noticed i stopped, making everyone else notice and look at me questioningly. then, we heard it again, but this time louder.

"hey!" one of them called, clearly wanting us to hear, getting all my friends attention as well.

"you're that blind freak, right? you a fag too?"

tears stung at my eyes as i closed them, taking a deep steady breath as my friends tried to pull me away and not listen.

"should have died years ago instead of becoming blind and and growing up gay. its disgusting!"

my friends finally were able to get my attention and pull me away from that park and those guys, not saying a word.

once we were far enough away from the park they stopped tugging me, turning to me, ready to give out any support i needed.

the tears that'd been welling up in my eyes finally decided to overflow, sobs suddenly wracking through my body. they all immediately rushed towards me, giving me a group hug for a few seconds.

"do you want to go home?" connor asked gently, setting his hand on my shoulder.

i nodded through tears, more falling down my face as he sh'd me and pulled me into a hug.

after he pulled back he moved to the side, letting jacob pull me into a hug.

"let's get you home."
