After Peter had read the post he and Wesley laid down to take was supposed to be a nap since niether one slept while in the hospital. When the two woke up it was the next day. Wesley was snuggled on Peters chest and Peter was half off the bed. The two were only partially covered up and the pillows were on the verge of falling off. Peter woke up to realize he was drooling and Wesley woke up to realize he was on peter. Upon realizing it Wesley rolled over on to his pillow so that Peter could move. Peter wiped the drool from his mouth and rotated his body to face Wesley. Wesley was still tired so his face was puffy and his eyes were heavy. Peter laughed and leaned in for a kiss. the two's lips gently pressed together lifting both of their hearts to the sky in a second. When they released a permanent smile was plastered on his face.

"well someone enjoyed that didn't they." Peter said with a tired smirk.

" yes that and being with you." Wesley said turned cherry red in the cheeks.

Peter saw the blush and his eyes focused on him.

"Wes.....I love you."

"I-I love you too Pete."

the two did another kiss before Wesley realized Peters phone kept going off.

"Peter your phone is going off."

He looked at it to see it was twitter but that was normal he follows alot of people and everyone tweets about everyday. He closed his phone and rolled out of bed dragging Wesley down the stairs with him to breakfast. The two sat down as Peters mom set plates in front of them.

" so how was last night?"

" What do you mean?"

"Nothing haha I saw you yesterday, I assume laid down to take a nap? "

"yeah but it ended up us sleeping till just a couple of minutes ago."

"Well I mean that was expected you guy didn't sleep in the hospital, By the way are you two okay?"

" Yeah never better." Wesley said slowly chewing his food.

" yeah, we're good just getting over injuries once more."

Peters dad sat down and ate the plate of food that was awaiting him. breakfast was silent as everyone ate. Peter stole glances at Wesley blushed at the sight of him.

"So, How has your morning been boys?" Peters dad said finishing off his plate.

" It's been good we've only been awake for a few minutes but-"

Wesley was cut off by the constant buzzes of his phone. Annoyed, he opened his phone to see a bunch of notifications. He then cleared them and closed his phone. he returned to his plate and finished the food on it. Wesley got up and took his and Peters plates which were both empty and put them in the dishwasher. Peters mom smiled and told them to go and have fun around the house. Wesleys phone began buzzing again but he decided to ignore it till they got to the room. with each step Wesley grew more and more annoyed at the constant notifications. He blasted into the room and immediately got his phone out.

"Peter.....is your phone going crazy as well?"

"yes, it has been ever since we woke up and you told me."

"Do you know what it is?"

"no I thought you might, well I did until you looked annoyed at breakfast.

" Yeah it kept going off but I'll open it to see if we have the same.

Peter and Wesley both opened their phones to see notifications from all Social media. Wesley immediately ran to the computer and went to the post he had made on Peters account. On that post were tons and tons of comments.

"Peter, You need to see this." Wesley said in an astounding tone.

Peter nervously walked over to the computer and saw all the comments. He immediately thought the worst about them.

"Oh no not this again."

" No, Peter, look they're positive."

" You are totally right the world is changing and the people have to change with it. After reading this post I went through the past posts and videos that had you two in it. You guys have changed the way I saw gays and now I understand that you did not deserve it."

" People can be so judgmental, they need to understand that not everyone is the same. Thank you for shedding the light on a lost subject."

The two continued to read all the comments that people were leaving. Each was better than the last. Peter checked twitter to see that people had retweeted the post over and over again. 200,000 times to be exact.

super excited, Peter called his parents upstairs to see what they did. when he yelled down the stairs his parents looked at each other nervously.

"what on earth could he need? "

" I don't know but it sounds urgent should we actually go up there."

"I guess, I mean he wouldn't yell to us if he didn't need us."

His parents got up and made their way to the stairs. they walked up each step as Peter read more and more of what people had to say. they stepped into the room to see Peter rapidly reading and Wesley on the computer.

"did you boys need us or something?"

" Yeah look."

Wesley got up and had Peters mom sit down, his dad leaned beside her. The two read the post quickly, very concerned about their safety once more.

"boys why did you post this you only made things worse."

"but we didn't, read the comments."

Peters parents hesitantly scrolled down reading random comments.

"I am so glad that you decided to tell your story, not many people are that brave to tell others of their struggle. thank you for teaching people that being who they are, is the best part about us."

" Wesley, I thank you. I am gay as well and up till now I've had to hide who I was. You have taught me that being gay isn't wrong. you have taught me that gay isn't a choice and no matter what people say it's apart of you not an attention grabber."

" Woah, you guys did this?"

"yes and so much more. The post is blowing up on twitter.....People are resonating with it, some are even converted from haters to supporters."

"I don't get it, what does this mean?"

"Change."
