I Have Tasted the Forbidden Fruit

Chapter 12: So Wrong but So Right

(Still Damien P.O.V)

Today I am meeting Samuel at the lake. It is late in the afternoon and all of our chores are done. Father is in town probably getting drunk and I would rather be gone when he gets home. Sometimes I can miss him and be out and other times I don't leave fast enough and he makes it home before I can leave. Since Samuel has came I am gone more often so I miss more beatings. I still get a few punches here and there but there in places where I can hide the bruises.

Samuel was already down at the lake when I made it. His back was to me so I decided to sneak up on him. I tip toed up behind him and put my hands on his eyes.

"Guess who!?" I said in ears. He laughed and turned his head to me. God his laugh was like angels softly playing violins. Beautiful and relaxing. He pulled me down between his knees. My back to his chest and his head resting on mine.

"Mmmmmm...the best person in the world?" he responded.

"But of course." I laughed and looked up. His face is now free of any bruises and cuts. There is a slight scar on his head but it's very faint. He said another scar on his body nothing to the ones he carries in his mind and heart. I've learned so much about his past. A past filled with torment and pain from people it is a wonder he can even take it.

Were so similar. Like we were cut from the cloth at birth. Handed a shitty deal in life. At least here he can escape it. My father doesn't mess with him thank goodness. I don't think I could handle my father hurting Samuel. It would kill me.

"What are you thinking about? Your in another world down there." he said to me. I might as well me honest. He can always tell when I am lying anyways.

"My father. How much it would kill me if he touched or hurt you. I am so happy he doesn't Samuel. I am happy that he ignores you even if that sounds horrible. I'm happy it's me and not you. That you can finally escape it all. That I can save you from him." I said. He just stared at me. He didn't say a word but what happened next surprised me even more.

He pulled my face up to his and placed his lips on mine. My heart was pounding so hard I thought it was going to fall out of my chest. I closed my eyes and kissed him back.

The kiss was slow and gentle. His hand was placed on my neck and mine on his face. Tears were falling from his eyes and from mine too.

I knew now he felt the same. We felt the same. We didn't understand these feelings for each other. These overwhelming feelings of want, need, and for me; love. I loved Samuel.

Whether it be wrong or right.
