New Home, New Love BoyxBoy

Piece 1

~~

                                                                “Matt? Matt?!” I hear Garth yelling on the phone. I don’t know when I called him, but apparently I did. He hears me crying and panics. “Im leaving my front door open, come right in.” He says, calmer. I squeak out an ‘alright’ and keep running. Eventually I get to his house. His parents aren’t home either and I can see him sitting on the porch, worried. I run up and into his arms without second thought, crying hard. He hugs me and sits me down. “What happened?” He says, trying calming me.

                                                                “A-Alan…h-he…”I gasp for breath. Between running and crying my eyes out I couldn’t exactly breathe so well. I hear Garth let out a low growl and mumble something about kicking Alan’s ass. I lean into him, forgetting everything and just crying. Eventually when I calm down he lets me vent. I tell him how in love I thought I was with Alan, and how well he had treated me. And what he had as a surprise when I came over tonight….

                                                                “I swear he won’t get away with hurting you.” He said, I could tell he was pissed off that I had let Alan hurt me like this. He seems to think for a moment. “How about I let you hear that song I had earlier? It’s not quite done but I’d do anything to help you cheer up…” I perk a bit at hearing this. I nod and he goes in to get his guitar. “Don’t laugh…” He says walking out with his Les Paul in hand. He takes a deep breath and starts strumming, his face turning a pale shade of pink.

Don’t make stupid choices

Hearing distant voices

You know you should listen to

Them when they say

That it’s okay

'cause I am here

With you dear

And right in here

 I know it’s clear

I know it’s true

That the only one

I love is you.

Ohh Matt

Don’t make me say it again

Ohh Matt

                                He stops strumming and looks away.

                                                “I-I still have to finish and edit it…but um…this is what I have so far….” His face was now a deep shade of red, I giggled. Perhaps he thought I was laughing at him? He stood up and moved to go inside, but I grabbed his wrist.

                                                “Y-you wrote that for me? So…I’m the guy who didn’t realize what he was doing?” Garth slowly nodded and looked at me.

                                                “Im sorry. I know you probably don’t want to hear a crappy love song after what just happened…”

                                                “No…”I smile happily and let out a small giggle. “A crappy love song is just what I needed.” I hug Garth tight, feeling his strong arms wrap around me and hold me tight. I know what you're thinking; I just broke up with Alan not even an hour ago and Im already sorta kinda moving on. But right now I just need someone who cares. Hell, Alan dumped me in TWO days! He USED me! And when he didn’t get his way he dumped me, harshly. I look up at Garth and he smiles.

                                                “How about we hang out after school tomorrow? I have a half day so I’ll come and pick you up?” I nod and smile.

                                                “That sounds great!” I say, happy that I might be able to take my mind off of tonight’s events.
