Drew's Point Of View

I stared up at the cieling, watching the sun come up. Ryan had his arms around my waist and was fsat asleep. I loved the way the sky rippled as the sun came up further and further till it turned a bright blue. I let myself yawn and I gently closed my eyes. I felt his arms tighten around me and he buried his face in my neck. I let out a little laugh and I felt eyes on me. I opened them and stared at him, while he stared back. 

Max stood in the door way just looking down at me. He blinked a few times but we never broke eye contact. I saw so many mixed emotions in his eyes but they didn't phase me. Hurt flashed across mine and he looked down. "What?" I whispered. He looked back at me and pointed behind me. Ryan's eyes were glued to him, glare on his face. I caressed his cheek and he grabbed my hand and stared into my eyes. 

I can't stand how he could take me down so fast. I lent in and we shared a long kiss before I heard a grunt. "Remember what we talking about last night? Ryan." I stared at Ryan with a huge question mark on my face. He sat up and pulled his shirt on. "He knows how to find you mom." I felt my back tense and I stepped out of bed and waited for Ryan to follow. We followed Max down stairs till he pulled out his laptop. 

"Phone." I handed him my iPhone and he plugged it into his computer. After a while he pulled up my phone records and all the times and dates. "The call you recieved was dialed from 135 Alemed Street." He handed me my phone back and I just stared at it blank faced. "That's where I used to live." Max and Ryan both stared at me in shock. "I have to go lie down." I heard Ryan follow me up the stairs. "Alone." I said. He retreated back and I walked into my room closing the door behind me. 

I held everything in me and I grabbed a pair of jeans and threw them on. I put on my shirt that I first wore here, blood stained along with my old house key. "If I came like this, I'm leaving like this." I climbed out of the window and stared at the ground. I really couldn't figure out how I would get down there. I walked along the house and jumped off the side closest to the ground. I made a run for it down the street. 

I need to get there, I need to find her. I turned down a few streets then ran across the park and the school. Nothing was going to stop me, nothing was going to destroy me. I saw my street come up and my father's truck parked outside. I ran up to the house and stopped right before it. I snuck a peak. No sign of anyone. I walked around to the side of the house and looked through a window, it was the window to my room. My mother was lying on the floor knocked out, there was  chain on her leg. 

I slid open the window and jumped in, she instantly opened her eyes. When she saw me tears ran down her face and she started to whimper. "Shhh. I'm going to save you." She shook her head no and pointed at her ankle. "He has the key." She whispered back to me. I stood up and pondered for a minute. After much debating I pulled out my phone and texted Ryan and Max. 

I opened the door and walked down the hall, my dad was sitting at the kitchen table. "Hey asshole." I said. He looked towards me suprised, but that all disappeared when hate took over. 

Ryan's Point Of View

I sat down staring up at his room, I felt myself tense up for some reason. I walked up to the room and knocked on the door. "Babe, let me in." I begged. He didn't answer, I turned the door knob and opened the door, no one was in there. I ran down stairs and saw Max sitting on the kitchen table. "Have you seen Drew?" Max's face tensed up and his phone lit up. I felt my vibrate in my pocket and I pulled it out. 

-Guys, I need back up. At my house, moms tied up in my room, going to confront my dad. 

I ran straight for the front door not even bothering to close it. I ran into my car and I saw Max jump in. "What are you doing?" I asked. He just stared at me and held up his phone, he sent the text to him too. I put the car in drive and sped down to the street. "Just turn here and its the house that looks like it was made of pure wood." I drove up to the house and parked behind the truck that was there. 

We both stepped out and walked up to the front door. I opened it a crack and looked in, empty. Max pushed it open and he followed behind me as we crept in. I heard a scream come from the back room. I ran all the way back there and pushed the door open. Drew was cut up pretty bad and his mom had his dad in a choke hold. Drew stood up and yanked the key off of his dad's neck. 

He pick up the knife off the floor that had his blood all over it and I saw an empty shell of him. "This is for mom." He jabbed the knife into his shoulder and unlocked his mom. She ran towards him and knelt down. I ran over to him and picked him up, Drew's dad was standing infront of the door, his shoulder bleeding out and knife in the other hand. "You can't have my family." He said. 

Max jumped infront of him and fought him for the knife. I saw Drew start to close his eyes. "No babe, stay awake. Please for me?" He stared into my eyes as long as he could. "I love you." He breathed out then nothing. His eyes closed and his breathing slowed to almost nothing. I felt my world stop right infront of me. I hadn't even noticed I wailed in pain till the entire room stopped and everyone's eyes were on me. 

Drew's mom rushed to the phone on the floor and dialed 911. Everything happened so fast, Max took the knife from Drew's dad who was in shock and stabbed him in the side. He went down and Max run up beside me. "No, No, No." He kept saying over and over. I pulled him close into my chest and kept talking to him. "Stay with me please, don't leave me like this. Please, I love you too. I need you." His breathing hitched but everytime I spoke to him he breathed. 

I heard the sound of sirens and I lifted him up and walked out of the front door. The paramedics surrounded us instantly and took him from me. They set him in the ambulence and began work on him. The police ran into the house and called for another paramedic for Drew's dad. I ran up to the ambulence and they had him awake and talking. "I'm fine, please just let me see him." I jumped into the truck and Drew stared at me with so much love in his eyes. 

"I wouldn't of made it without you." He whispered. The Paramedics wiped off his cuts and closed a few with stiches. "Why did you guys take him to the hospital?" I asked. The paramedic smiled at me. "We pretty much have a hospital in the back of this truck. He was out but it was from the pain, when it stopped his body reacted by waking up again." I smiled and nuzzled my head in his neck. He winced back but kissed my cheek. 

His mom walked up to us and she gave him a huge hug. "I love you so much, thank you." She whispered. She couldn't stop crying. "I'm so sorry for everything that I put you through, that he put you through." He shrugged and pulled her into another hug. She looked back at me and pulled me into a hug. Thank you boys. 

Drew's Point of View

I looked over my head and saw Max staring at us. My heart went out to him with pleading eyes but he walked away and took off down the street. I stood up and walked after him, ignoring my mom and Ryan's attempts at calling me.

What do you guys think? Max & Drew? or Ryan and Drew?

I know whats going to happen, but what do you guys think?

I'll give you a sneek peak. 

I finally stopped him making him stare into my eyes. His were full of tears, full of sorrow, full of rejection. "I already know." He whispered out. I pulled him down into a deep kiss. He froze. "I love you not him. Your everything I want, I need, and you the one I will fight for." He pulled me up and kissed me hard. I couldn't help feeling like this is how it is suppose to be, how it will always be. 

And who won him? ;)
