Brian P.O.V

There was so much pain that soared through my body. I felt so much for Aiden and it hurt to see my friend have his privacy greatly invaded and disrespected. Things like that boils rage within my fists and makes me wanna explode in fury.

Nathan is such a bully and a jerk. And I know it was him; only he could go so far to do something so heinous. How could he do something like that to Aiden. All because you wanna make him miserable?

I don't believe in "outing someone" because Aiden was certainly not ready and also given the fact that he is with James. It puts James in an odd situation because he's in the closet too. Now I'm scared that what happened will ruin their relationship, because Aiden is so happy with him.

I called him for like the hundredth time since it's been a two days since it happened. I would expect him to shut everything out because its hard to just move on from things like that so quickly. Even though he might be distant, I still need to be there for my friend because he was there for me.

"Hello?"

When I heard his voice on the phone there was a vibe of relief in my head. "Aiden I know your home so I'm on my way to talk to you friend. You need someone to talk to, okay."

There was silence on the other end until he sniffled and sighed heavily.

"OK" He said.

"Great cause I'm already outside friend." I hung up the phone and marched up to his home and stood on his welcome mat. I rang the door bell just in case he didn't wanna get up fast enough because I know he hates the sound of it.

I waited patiently and he finally opened up.

"Hey friend, I hope your okay?"

"Yeah I am." He lied without even caring and it hit one of my arteries; he then invited me inside.

He was wearing pajamas so that let me know he had no intention on leaving the house any time soon. His hair was messy although he looked well rested by the lack of shadow around his eyes.

The living room was calmly lit and my guess was he was down here for a while instead of his room. There were also three ice cream pint tubs on the coffee table and he had yet to eat the last one. It was almost like he going through heartbreak.

"Aiden where is James?" I sat down on the couch closest to him and by the looks of his face, his tongue grew numb.

"I...I don't know." He replied with dry throat.

"Have you talked to him about it. He needs to be here for you. He needs to see if you're okay and your not okay right now friend." I tried to make it sound not like a lecture but instead some true words coming from a friend.

It was necessary for me because sadly someone like Abby can't witness whats going on with Aiden. Hopefully someone like Greg or Kyle can speak to him soon after me because he needs support.

"We haven't talked and I'm not sure how soon we will." He groaned out.

"But Aiden what happened is not your fault. Your privacy was invaded and you shouldn't feel like guys like Nathan have power over you because they don't." I say with so much emotion I almost began to cry.

"But Brian...This was the one time I needed him the most. I-I needed him. I still need him but...he won't let himself." He began to cry as he fixed his sleeves and crossed his arms on his knees as he sat.

I had a feeling and I didn't like it so I got up and stood in front of Aiden. I pulled him off the couch and he gasped out of shock.

I let his right hand go but I held on to the left one because I knew it was this one. I pulled back his arm sleeve and I found what I was lookin for.
