Simon's p.o.v
I was in the bed torturing myself. Not the physical torture like whips and chains, but emotional. I sat there watching an old video on my camera crying. Crying turned to quiet sobbing in the matter of minutes. Therefore I didn't hear the door open and close, and I didn't feel the dip in the bed by me. I was startled by the soft hand on my shoulder. Surprised, I looked up to see none other than Raphael Santiago. It was bad enough that he saw me sobbing, but even worse since I am in love with him. I looked back down when he started speaking.
"I am so sorry about the others' behavior. They are just envious of you, and are a little sore about you and the shadow hunters."
By that point, I was too sad and tired to get mad. Instead of saying slurs, I start to tell him why I was sad.
"Do you know what day it is?" I ask.
"No" he said.
"It's June 17th. Father's Day." I say miserably
He just looked at me with eyes full of sympathy and something else.
"My father died when I was young. Cancer." Raphael inhaled sharply as I gave out a bitter laugh. "He had a heart attack and died." A single tear rolled down my face." His name was Levi. He was actually the one who made me a musician. He taught me to play the piano and all the different notes and scales. He also drove my mom to drinking." I said
Raphael had moved his hand to my cheek and wiped my tears. I then show the video of me and my dad to him and stayed silent. ( watch video above and get the idea.) I couldn't stop the tears as they poured down my face. Raphael pulled me into him close, and surrounded me with his loving embrace.
