benji**

It's been five years since my best friend and first love had to leave. I remember the day like it was yesterday.

"Hey you cheated benji that isn't fair!" He shouted and threw the controller on the white ruffled sheets beneath us.
"Jeez Jorge chill it's only a game" I said with a laugh.

He pouted and flopped on his back with his arms crossed. It was my 14th birthday and Jorge had stayed over after my party had ended and everyone went home.

I laughed at his childish actions and laid down next to him.
He's was my first boyfriend but know one knew. Know one could know. We both knew how homophobic my dad was but we were still together non the less.

He turned to face me and I opened my arms and pulled him into a hug.

A crash came from outside my room and my dad burst through the door. I shot up from our hug and made sure Jorge was behind me. I heard his breathing quicken but I knew I couldn't do anything about it with my dad here.

"What the hell is this! What are you, gay? Huh? Well Benjamin? ANSWER ME!" He was obviously drunk. The pungent smell of cheap vodka followed him everywhere he went.

"Leave him alone Mike!" My mum followed after him and pushed him back.

I left them to fighting and looked over at Jorge. His cheeks were stained with his tears and he was breathing quickly. I shushed him and helped him calm down. I grabbed his things and climbed out the window with him. We ran and skidded down the wet roof tiles and onto the garden.

I turned Jorge around and took both his hands into mine.

"Go ok? I love you..."

We both sobbed and he kissed me.
"I love you too Benjamin" he whispered and kissed me again.
This was my first ever kiss. I kissed him back while the sound of my dads shouts became louder and louder. He bolted through the back door and ran towards us. I looked at Jorge and pushed him back. I gave him another kiss and pushed him further. He nodded and blew me a kiss before running out of the garden.

My dads footsteps got louder and louder but I stood there, crying. Everything went quiet. My dads footsteps seemed to of slowed down and the only thing I could hear were my breaths. It seemed like time just stopped. You could hear a pin drop. I knew my dad was running towards me, it was just all in slow motion. Dream like, maybe. All foggy and cramped.

Once everything snapped back into reality, I turned around and everything went black.

All I know is that I woke up in the hospital a day later. My dad had gone to jail and would get released in five weeks.

I told Jorge to go, run, get away from this life and start a knew one.

He said yes but aslong as we still kept in touch. He told his mum he was getting bullied and they moved 5 hours away from Madrid where we were, and all the way to Barcelona.

We still keep in touch, but it's not the same. I'm heading off to Amsterdam for college soon and I know that I'd be more alone then ever. The worst part about it is that my dad is coming with me. He abused me more since that day so I'm lucky he bought an apartment instead of staying in my dorm with me.

I think about Jorge everyday. I wonder what he looks like now. I mean, he can't be much hotter than he was back then...

I sighed and carried on packing my bags.

Im heading to Amsterdam in 1 day so I need to be prepared.

I sat down on my bed. I thought about texting Jorge, but it's much later where he is and he needed to sleep. He's not going to a college, his parents have loads of money, so he doesn't need to worry.

I sigh to myself and lie down in my bed before drifting off to sleep.

**jorge**

I'm lying in my bed, thinking about Benji. It's been 5 years since the day I had to leave him. When I left, I guess we just broke off. I still talk to him though. He's my best friend through anything and all I long to do is hug him and kiss him but the reality is, is that it's not that easy. I learned that the hard way.

He texts me every night but recently he's stopped. I know it's because he's packing to go to Amsterdam for college, but I missed talking to him.

I also know that his dad is going with him. His mum didn't seem to mind about his dad. To be honest, why would she? She'd do anything to get rid of him, benji tells me that every night.

I just can't stand the fact that Benjis going to be alone in Amsterdam with him, so I decided to pack up, and go to Amsterdam with him as a surprise. My parents know and have given me lots of money on my card and I've been packing for the last couple nights.

Benji sets off for Amsterdam tomorrow so I've said bye to all my family tonight since I might not see them because of my early flight. I get all my suitcases and prop them up near the door, I write my family a note saying I loved them and I will keep in touch, then I sat down on the couch and drifted off to sleep.
