I barely slept last night because of my arm. The bedroom door opens. "Morning Andy, I made you some breakfast." I pull the blankets up because I only wear boxers. "You shouldn't have done that. I'm not a prince. I can make my own breakfast." Ashley laughs. "I was already awake so it's no big deal. I'll eat my breakfast here too, with you." I feel a bit uncomfortable. "Should I put some clothes on first?" He shakes his head. "It's no problem, just eat your breakfast okay?" I take a sip of my orange juice and eat the sandwiches he made for me. He eats a sandwich too.

I try to get dressed but I really can't put my shirt on. "Ashley, are you there?" I hear footsteps. "What is it?" He says. "I can't get my shirt on, can you help me?" "Sure Andy." He walks into the room with only wearing his boxers. I stare at his body. I try to keep my mouth shut. He is so sexy. I feel my head is starting to get red. "Do you have a fever? You look very red." That makes me blush even more. "No..No I...I. Nevermind." He helps me with my shirt. "Thanks Ashley." He walks to his own room again. He is so hot. His butt is so cute and his body, so sexy. I let myself fall down on the bed, still blushing like an idiot and thinking about him.

Ashley's POV

I hear Andy asking if I could help him dress up. I take a breath before I go in, only wearing boxers. I look at him standing there shirtless. He is so hot. Stay cool Ashley, stay cool. I grab his shirt and put it on him. I see him getting red. I ask him if he has a fever, but he can't even answer me without stuttering. I turn around and blush too. I breathe again as I leave his room.

Andy gets down. "Andy, I have to go home for a moment. Will you be okay?" He looks at me. It feels like his bright blue eyes look right through my soul. "Ofcourse I will be fine. Take care." I leave the house and go visit my mom.

"Mom, I'm home!" She walks to the living room. "Hey Ashley, how is Andy doing?" " He is doing great. I need to talk to you about something." My hands are shaking. It's time to come clean. "Don't panic okay? I don't know if you are going to like what I have to say." She pulls one eyebrow up. "Mom, I don't like Andy as a friend." She looks confused. "What do you mean? I thought you guys were really good friends?" I stay silent for a moment. "I think I want to have Andy as my boyfriend." She doesn't say anything. Suddenly she explodes. "You fag! You are just like your father. The asshole left me for a guy and know you tell me this? Leave Ashley, take your stuff. I really don't want to see you in a while!" She cries and is angry at the same time. She walks to the door and slams it behind her. I break out in tears.

I return to Andy's house with all my stuff. Which isn't a lot. Andy looks at me through the window. I walk inside and throw my bags on the ground. I start crying again. "Ash, what's the matter? Why did you bring all your stuff?" I can't even answer, I start crying more. He hugs me tight with his left arm. "Shhhhh, Ash it's okay. I'm here for you." We just stay there in silence hugging. It calms me down. We go sit on the couch.

"I told my mom...about us. She freaked out, called me a fag and said to leave the house for now." My voice breaks. Andy is still hugging me. "It's because of my father she hates gay people. He left her for another guy. So when I said I liked you she just broke." "Well it is very brave you told her. It is important you can be yourself at all times." I just nodd, fighting the tears. "You can stay here as long as you like." "Thanks Andy. That's really sweet of you. Can I sleep in your room tonight if you don't mind? I don't want to be alone right now." "Sure you can Ash." We put on our pajamas and lay together in his bed. I snuggle up to him and we fall asleep.
