My Love, My Larry ( Les Twins Fanfiction)

Breaking point

"Isaiah, I'm going to give you a chance to explain yourself" I said while closing the bedroom door behind me. He sat quietly on the edge of the bed. I waited for a response, but there was none. "Isaiah..." I repeated, slightly more annoyed. All I could hear was his heavy breathing. "Isaiah! I'm not playing with you, start talking!" I raised my voice. "What? What do you want me to say?!" he fired back. "Tell me why you did what you did" "Because I'm stressed, okay?" "And what exactly is stressing you out so much that its made you turn to drugs?" I asked, crossing my arms. He took a deep breath. "This! All of this bullshit! I can't take it anymore, its not easy living this way!" He shouted. "And you think drugs are gonna help you with that? They're NOT some type of "quick problem solver" "Yes...No...I don't know. I just thought it would help me relax. I know it was wrong of me to do, but I didn't think I had any other option"  He said, looking ashamed. "You could've talked to me about it, I'm always here for you" I reassured him. He nodded with his head still faced down. "You've worked so hard in school and the basketball team, and I don't want to see that slip away from you, just for some weed" He raised his head, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to disappoint you or anything" "Just make sure this never happens again"

"Izzy, is what you said yesterday true?" he asked. "What?" I tried thinking back to what I said. "You told Jay that the only reason why you're still here and putting up all of this, is for me? I don't wanna hold you back" his voice cracked. I noticed tears falling from his eyes. I sat down next to him on the side of the bed and held his face in my hands. His eyes were filled with pain. I gently wiped away his tears and kissed him on the cheek. "You're not holding me back, and I don't want you think that. I'm always here for you. I've got your back, just like you've got mine" Isaiah was always a tough and strong person, but I guess this was his breaking point. I held him tightly in my arms, "I love you, never forget that" I spoke softly. "I love you too" he replied.
