"So do you want him to make it official?" Mikey asked as he sat on the seat across from me.

I shrugged my shoulders as I looked at the menu.

"I don't know. I mean Andy's really something else but in a good way. I'm just scared to kinda get out there again and into the whole "oh I have a boyfriend" kind of thing," I replied as looked at Mikey, his eyes crystal blue.

"Give it a chance Rye, he's a great guy with a big heart and he may be a massive flirt but you've seen how he's piped down In the last few weeks right?" Mikey asked.

I sighed.

"I know but it's only been a few weeks and I think I want to continue talking and going out with him before I make my final decision though even if we don't work out I'd like to keep his as a good friend of mine. He's like Brooklyn but I guess in a different way because after all, they are brothers," I said, chuckling at the last bit.

"I understand because I'm still talking to Harvey even though we've known each other for a while I'm just getting to know him again if that makes any sense but I understand that I really do," Mikey said as he smiled at me.

I returned that smile.

"I think this dinner with you was much needed," I giggled.

"Definitely was overdue but hey! Now we're here finally. How about a drink?" He asked.

I nodded as he flagged the waiter down to get us a drink and to order food.

Once we did that and had our drink in hand we just sat there talking, enjoying the view we had as this restaurant was very high class due to Mikey's job.

"It's crazy that you're a college student and have this much money," I said as I looked down at the city below.

"My parents really. I may be 20 but really I just want to go my own way really. I want to go out and live. The LGBT community is frowned upon at the places Mum and dad work at and I want someplace accepting and someplace that doesn't care who I date just as long as I'm happy," Mikey said as he took a sip of his drink he had.

I nodded my head, just taking in what he had said.

I mean I'm kinda in the same position but my parents are accepting and love me for me but I just live by myself because where they live doesn't accept me and when I brought him home there was this feeling of dread and a burden but eventually, I understood why I had that feeling.

He never treated me right or showed me that he cared. It was this endless cycle of dread, abuse and so many other things than on top of that my anxiety and depression which I'm still not fully recovered from.

It's crazy how only a year can change a person let alone MONTHS maybe even WEEKS but sometimes that's what life throws at you.

It throws one curveball then it hits you then the next and the next and it just keeps going until eventually you're at rock bottom very much like I am. After I broke up with him I never wanted to be in a relationship again, afraid someone might hurt me and take advantage of me as he did. I don't like bringing him up too often but when it does come up I sometimes talk about it and sometimes I have to tell the person I can't talk about it because it Triggers me. Mikey was the first to find about him and what he did then Brooklyn and now they're the only two who know but even I ever dated Andy and we lasted then I'd definitely tell him but I just have to find the confidence to do so but not yet.

Sitting here with Mikey relax me and finally getting to sit down and talk to my best friend over dinner tonight was great and having a good laugh with him and a few drink and eating. I couldn't ask for a better best friend.

"Thanks for the great night man, I really do appreciate it. It was much needed," I said as I hugged Mikey goodbye at my door.

"Of course man, any time. Just ask and I'll come to pick you up," he replied as he let go and walked off.

When I closed my door I got shivers down my spine.

I was never one to like being home alone after he entered my life and left so that's why I got biscuit but he wasn't here as he was at Robbie's house with the twins.

Now I was actually home alone in a two-story house that creeped me out. I wanted someone here so I went to reach for my phone but a knock on the door prevented me from doing so.

Who could it be? It was 10:30 at night so I didn't know who it could be. I was scared to even look at who it was but I did and luckily it was just a friendly face.

I opened the door.

"Hey Andy," I said.

"Sorry to come here late but do you mind I just yeah it's a long story and I'll explain tomorrow," Andy said.

"Yeah come in it's cold," I said rather quickly before shutting and locking the door after letting him in.

"You alright?" He asked as he took his coat off.

"Dandy," I replied.

Hi, how are ya?

So this was just a little filler chapter and what not to give you a little bit more insight on rye's character and what happened and why he doesn't go out into the dating field too often.

I really want to thank you guys so much for the support on this book already and I don't know when I'll publish this but I've only had this book published since the 3rd and it already had 3k reads which I think is insane so thank you so much for that and I appreciate it a lot.

I'll be busy the next few months but don't worry I'll get chapters out but other than that I have nothing else to say.

Oh, shout out to bluefovvs for I'm assuming helping my book blow up because she posted it on her conversation board so Credits to her for doing that even though she didn't have too I appreciate it a lot.
