James

"Hey mate, missed you" I said as my little cousin Brad came into my open arms.
"Ye you too jems, although by about a fortnight we will be sick of the sight of each other" he joked, we both laughed. You see I'm really glad Brads here since he's the only one I can talk to about relationships, as you may know, I'm gay, but so is Brad, although he just hasn't found the right person for him. I've got tris and con but Brad understands me a lot better.
"C'mon, lets get back home, we can hang out with my friends later: Connor and Tristan, there great people, and Connors single" I said nudging his elbow whilst I got some of his bags as we walked to the car.
"Jems your gay too!" He said whining and clinging to my arm,for a 16 year old he sure whines a lot. Sometimes I doubt if he is only 7 years younger than me.
"I know, I have Tristan, he's my Bæ" I said acting camp,
"Don't" he said cringing " your awkward"
"You're jelly " I said acting camp again
" stoppp " he whined for the 3rd time in 2 minutes, gosh this kid whines a lot!
"Ok you big baby" I said chuckling, he giggled. I love his giggle, it's cute. We got in my car and he played some music, Taylor Swift 22 came on and Brad groaned whilst I fangirled.
"C'mon Bradley you know you want to!" I said shouting over the music

Bradley

"C'mon Bradley you know you want to!" He shouted over the music. I gave knowing James was right, I did want to,
"Yeahhhhhhh! We're happy free confused and lonely at the same time, it's miserable and magical oh Yeahhhhhhh, tonight's the night when we forget about the deadlines ....it's time!" I sang
"Yasssssss bwadley!!!"
"OH OH I DONT KNOW ABOUT YOU! BUT IM FEELIN 22! EVERYTHINGS GONNA BE ALRIGHT IF YOU KEEP ME NEXT TO YOUUUU" we both belted out "YOU DONT KNOW ABOUT ME! BUT I BET YOU WANT TOOOO! EVERYTHING WILL BE ALRIGHT IF WE JUST KEEP DANCING LIKE WE ARE 22 OHH 22 OHHHH". We both finished,
"It feels like one of those nights, this place to crowded, too many cool kids" I sang
"Like who's Taylor Swift anyway eww" James went camp again. We both died out laughing. We didn't stop until we reached the large home that James shares with his best friend and boyfriend.
"C'mon lets go meet them, Connors 18 so you have a great shot with him." I rolled my eyes. We got all of my bags out and I began to get nervous,
"James," I asked
"Ye what's up?" He said leaning on the boot to talk to me.
"What if they don't like me" I said insecurely biting my finger nails
"Listen, no one could not like you, your perfect, gorgeous,cute and kind" he said, taking my fingers out of my mouth and kissing my forehead. I'm very insecure if you couldn't already tell, I went through a self-harm phase, worst moments of my life, never gonna happen again. I nearly died, I just want someone to love me like James loves Tristan, he's always talking about him, how amazing he is. That's why Jems is my best friend, I can talk to him about any thing and my parents kicked my out since I was gay... James was there for me. He's the best, he's the only one who knows about my self harming and insecurity. We both grabbed some bags and walked up to the door, he unlocked the door and two guys appeared . A tall blonde that I recognised very well: Tristan. And someone else, he was stunning, slightly smaller than me,
"Hey babe, hey con" he said whilst giving Tristan a peck on the lips "this is Brad my cousin, and he's single" I rolled my eyes, like usual when he tells a guy I'm single, but this time I felt something, like my stomach had tied in a knot.
"H-hi guys" I stuttered. Oh shit, they are gonna think I'm a freak
"Hey Brad you ok?" Tristan asked, as I received a message from my mum
From:Mother
Hey whore, you know you can't run away for ever. I will go find you, kill you and kill myself if I have to, I can find you...
Mother
End of message
I quickly checked if I had my location turned on, phew I don't
"Yeah, he's fine, just a little tired right?" James said for me.
"Y-yeah er j-just -tired" I said, on the verge of tears. My eyes welling up...
"Here Brad I'll show you to your room." James said as he placed his left hand on my back, slowly guiding me upstairs. As soon as we got into my room. I burst out crying on James.
"Shh bradderz what's up?" He said trying to calm me down. I showed him my phone with shaking hands. His finger fits my fingerprint ID  so he opened it up and then saw the message.
"Ohh, baby. Shhhhh shhh it's fine, you have us now" James said cradling me.
"I'm s-sorry. I-I'm being a baby n-now" I said feeling stupid and embarrassed.
"Baby, don't say that you're not. Your grown up and mature for dealing with this. C'mon get some rest, it will help."He kissed my forehead then walked out of the room. I took my jeans and shirt off. Revealing the millions of scars along my arms, luckily they are fading quite quickly. I took off my necklasses and watch leaving me in just my boxers. 'I'm not actually that bad looking' I thought to myself. I shrugged and climbed into my bed. This might not be so bad after all...
