*Ryan's POV*

Gosh I hate school so much. And today Brayden isn't going to be there. I wake up to my alarm and go get ready. I walk back into our room to get dressed and I see Brayden huddled in the fetus position. He is so adorable that sometimes I can't take it. After getting dressed I ate breakfast quickly and then walked back into our room and whisper into Brayden's ear that I was going to school. I kissed his forehead and walked out of the house.

I walked into school and joined my group of friends. I said hello to everyone and they all greeted me as well. After a few seconds Mitch asked where Brayden was. I told him about the fight Brayden was in and then Mitch started to verbally attack me.

"Why weren't you there to help him?"

"I wasn't there when they were fighting." I say to him.

"Why aren't you at home taking care of him?"

"Because I have to come here. Or else I'd be home with him right now." I said to him.

"Why didn't you-"

I cut him off. "Mitch lay off. Can you knock it off? Or are you always like this?"

Mitch rolls his eyes at me. I walk to math all by myself. I walk in the room and take my seat. We didn't do much today. We worked on a poster and completed a few problems but we didn't do much. After first period the rest of the day went by fast. When school ended I went to Dunkin Donuts and got some donuts and coffee for Brayden.

I return home and see Brayden is watching tv and doing some of his AP work. I sit the donuts on the table and take the coffee to him.

"Hey babe!" He says to me.

I hand the coffee to him and kiss him.

"How was your day?" I say to him jokingly.

"I bet it was better than yours." he grinned and laughed.

"I'm sure it was. I hate that place so much." I say to him.

"What happened today? Anything good?" He asks me.

"Yeah. Mitch and I got in a fight. Pfft. Surprise surprise."

"What about now?" He says to me.

"Hey. It wasn't my fault. I was just trying to protect myself and you."

"Ryan. What did he say then?" He said to me.

"He started going off about how I didn't protect you and how I didn't stay home today to look after you. Honestly he was just being ridiculous." I roll my eyes.

"Mitch is our friend but what's his problem lately? Have you noticed anything Ryan?" Brayden asked me.

"Brayden, I notice a lot but I just don't say anything because we are friends with him."

"I don't know. He was weird the other day when me and you came out. He just sat there in silence and now he is fighting with you." Brayden says to me.

"I don't know. He could just be... I honestly don't know."

"Let's not let it bother us." Brayden says.

"That's fine with me."

We start talking about other things and then we ate some donuts. The rest of the night went smoothly until we heard the door ring.

I sit there and think to myself. Who the heck is here at 7:30 at night? I open the door and see Brayden's little brother. I tell him to come in. He gives me a hug and then runs to Brayden.

"Brayden!" He yells.

He gives Brayden a hug and starts crying.

"What? What's wrong?" Brayden asks him.

"Mom and Dad have been fighting a lot since you've left..."

"Oh..." He says to him.

"Brayden please come back. I miss you a lot."

"I can't and I won't. They don't approve of me and Ryan's relationship. I just can't go back and you have to understand that.." Brayden says looking his brother deep in the eyes.

Brayden's little brother is sobbing at this point trying to catch his breath.

He says to Brayden, "O-O-Ok-Okay. I und-under-stand."

Brayden is starting to tear up too.

Brayden's brother hugs Brayden and tell him that he loves him and misses him.

Brayden tells his little brother to stay for a little bit. We started watching the Lego movie. Brayden's brother was always into Legos his whole life. We sit the for about an hour and a half and then Brayden says to his brother that he was going to have to drive him home in about 5 minutes. His brother watches the remainder of the movie and then they both leave. After about 10 minutes Brayden returns home.

"Hey." I hug him because he had been crying again.

He gently weeps in my arms.

"It's alright. It's alright. Don't worry about it." I kiss his forehead. He was obviously tired too so I took him to bed. We laid in bed for 20 minutes before we were both asleep. Brayden slept in my arms and I slept basically hugging him.
