His words sounded toxic in the air.
"What... what did you just say?" Jacob whispered, his eye widened and his hand automatically stopped ruffling his hair.
"He'd... do things I don't like to me... and he's rape me and beat me....." Troye continued.
Jacob felt so sick. He felt like he was going to vomit. He just simply cannot imagine someone forcing this little innocent boy to do something he doesn't like. With his big eyes and an even bigger heart, why would anyone want to spread this vulnerable delicate boy apart?
And Jacob, Jacob feels so helpless. He doesn't know how to help this broken boy, to mend his soul. So he just wrapped Troye closer to him and he can't help it, he cried too.
After that day, Troye seemed to be lighter, like his burden was being lifted away and away from him.
And Jacob was patient. He didn't try to pry anything else about Mark that Troye doesn't want to talk about. But they both know that Jacob will be there if Troye was ready to spill whatever was bothering him to Jacob.
Jacob thought that Troye needed a break, as well as himself, so they decided to do something fun. They decided to go to Disneyworld with Jacob's friends, since Justin won two tickets and is going to expire the next month.
Now all six of them are cramped inside Tyler's car, which only had five seats. Luckily Troye and Rose were thin so they can be squeezed together and share a seat.
During the car ride everyone was in a high mood. It's not everyday you get to go to Disneyworld. The radio was blasted on full volume which was currently playing thank u, next.
"THANK U, NEXT, CUZ I'M SO FUCKING GRATEFUL FOR MY EX..." they all sang on the top of their voice, and laughing like mad.
(Sorry I also really love Ariana Grande as well as Troye. Honestly so love their "dance to this" collab❤️)
They finally arrived Disneyworld and boy was it beautiful in its Christmas decorations. There was a huge gingerbread house and an even huger Christmas Tree. The Main Street was decorated with gold and silver ornaments and there was a stall selling Mickey-themed candy canes.
They each got one and went to the Disneyland rides. They joked and laughed and gossiped when they were lining up for the rides, and took so many selfies together.
Finally, after eating dinner, they decided to go to Main Street to shop for souvenirs. Jacob's friends were talking and laughing loud and singing Christmas songs while Troye followed behind, smiling at them. Jacob lagged behind to walk with Troye.
"So how are you enjoying today?" Jacob asked.
Troye smiled. "Today was honestly the best day of my life. Christmas is my favorite holiday, and I'm glad that I could well... spend it with you," Troye blushed at the end of the sentence.
Jacob broke out a grin. They walked in silence for a few minutes, each absorbed in their own thoughts but pleased with their companion.
They soon arrived Main Street and Jacob's friends went in one of the shops. Jacob was about to go in too, but he suddenly realized that Troye wasn't beside him. He looked around the crowd and finally spot him looking in awe at the snowflakes that were beginning to shower down. Jacob went over to Troye.
"You've never seen snow before?" Jacob asked.
Troye shook his head, his curls bouncing on his face.
"You know, people taste the snowflakes when it snows," Jacob said, while sticking his tongue out. "Huus like att." (just like that)
Troye giggled then followed, and ran around Main Street trying to catch the largest snowflake. And Jacob could only hitch his breath by how adorable Troye was and how precious he was to this world.
They both ran around Main Street like fools and laughing crazily. Soon they both stopped, under one of the dim lamplight. The snow was starting to pile up and it was starting to get cold.
Jacob looked at Troye to see him smiling at him, his eyes shining like stars, now looking away, his breath still uneven from all the running and his cheeks flushed from the cold. Looking at Troye, nothing else mattered. Only he does. Only he mattered.
Troye was rubbing his hands and blowing at them, so Jacob gently took his hand into his and tried to warm it, while Troye blushed.
Then, they locked eyes and time stopped. And all of a sudden, Troye's eyes flickered on Jacob's lips and then Jacob was leaning down, down, down to meet his lips.
Jacob swore that it was like literal fireworks bursting and heaven. His lips were cold and tasted a bit like melted snowflakes. Jacob was still holding on to Troye's cold hand, but now his other was holding his cheek. And Troye's other hand sneaked to Jacob's waist.
It was perfect, and Jacob wouldn't have it any other way. In the kiss, Jacob put all his love for Troye in it, so that Troye can feel the warmth in all the cold.
Soon, they parted, and Troye fell into Jacob's hug, biting his lip and his face redder than ever but with a smile that could light up the whole street. Jacob could not believe that he actually kissed Troye, the one that he loved so much, and he was feeling extremely giddy and lightheaded.
They soon parted from the hug, and although Troye was looking down, Jacob could tell that he really liked the kiss.
And while they're heading back into the shop where Jacob's friends are at, Jacob sneakily slipped his hand into Troye's.
