~Danny's P.O.V~
I quickly jumped up from the bed and looked around. "W-what makes you think my dad did anything to me?" I said with a laugh, trying to make it sound like it was the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard.
"Well lets see; You've have nightmares, a lot. You are always frantic about a man hurting you, and last night you said something like~ "No Dad, stop that hurts." Or at least on that concept." Gage stated.
I froze, did I really? "Well, my dad didn't do a damn thing to me so, lets drop it okay?"
"Danny just tell me the truth." Gage pleaded.
I turned towards him with a blank expression. "I did, if you didn't believe me its not my problem." I growled.
"Danny, why can't you open up to anyone?" Gage mumbled.
"What?" I hissed back.
"Why are you so closed off?" He yelled getting off the bed and standing next to me. "Why can't you just talk to someone?" He put his hands on my shoulders.
As quickly as the fell upon my shoulders and shoved them off. "I don't talk to people because its not of there business!" I yelled in his face. "If I wanted to "open up'' if I wanted to ''talk about it'' don't you think I would have already? I know you're question now, "did my mom know that my dad hit me?" Well guess what? She did! And she was set on him being a changed man! But he wasn't! He hit me to see my tears! The stupid sadistic bastard did it to see me cry? He didn't think there was anything wrong with that! He just, I hate him!" I yelled.
"So... He did hit you?"
I face palmed my self and pinched the bridge of my nose in annoyance.
"I let it slip." I cursed under my breath. I turned to Gage with a death glare that I've mastered over the years. I could tell he was intimidated when his eyes grew wide and he took a safe step back away from me. "Tell a soul and I will personally kick your ass till you can't sit right." I hissed.
With fear in his eyes Gage slowly nodded his head up and down. I sat down on the edge of the bed and let out a small laugh.
"You think I'm a freak now right?" I shook my head and placed it in my palms. "The kid who's dad beat him half to death and is now living with screwed up dreams and panic attacks. It's fine if you don't talk to me anymore. I'd understand." I murmured.
I felt the bed dip under me, but I refused to look. What really made me feel uncomfortable is the fact that he didn't say anything. He really did think I was a freak didn't he...
"Um, I-I think I'm going to go back to my room..." He mumbled under his breath.
I swear, a piece of me just shattered into pieces. I bit my lip, fighting back tears. "I understand." I said through a horsed voice.
Without another word, Gage got up and walked away, quietly closing the door after him. Right when I heard the click I broke down.
Why? Why was I so different? What did I do to deserve this? I didn't mean to be hit! It wasn't under my control! Why didn't he understand? And to make it worse...
He actually made me care for him.
He kissed me...
He hugged me...
He made me feel... Safe under the cloud of fear.
I felt comfortable around him. I actually like being in his embrace... Now, now he rejected me because of my past...
It was Dads fault! I could have kept him as a friend... Or maybe we were more... I don't know, but now I'll never find out!
Why does he think I'm a freak? What did I do? Sure I have a short temper, and I can be a huge dick sometimes. But that doesn't make me a completely bad person...
Does it?
I can't remember the last time anyone had made my heart flutter like he did. How he gave me the butterflies in my stomach. How me annoyed me, but I wanted him to keep doing it. I don't know what this feeling is! But when he wanted to go, I felt light headed... Alone all over again. I... I miss him already...
But, maybe this is for the better... I mean, were both men, so it's not normal to acted all lovey dovey with each other... But still I liked him...
A lot...

A/N: I'm sorry I haven't updated and this is a short chapter. I've just been kinds sick lately and I have a scope coming up next week so I will probably try to get in the next chapter by then. But I'm so sorry if I don't... I know this one is short, but I needed to start a little drama! He he, so stupid Gage rejected him for being abused...
Perhaps, perhaps not..:3
