Fighting for Love

On stage

Wesley

We arrived at the set, and was immediately swept into a crowd of makeup and hair people

We were forced into chairs and what looks like simple foundation. However Peter had people just picking him apart. They whispered to each other, I chuckled with my hand over my mouth.

Peter stuck his tongue out at me while they worked on his hair. It was soon that we were shoved backstage where Yvonne and Dennis were waiting.

We ran and hugged. Peter did the same.

" you guys ready?"

" yes....... I think so." I said projecting fake confidence.

" you'll be okay...... it's your turn to win."

" yeah......Yeah you're right. It's our turn."

" Wesley, Peter you're up."

They walked us to the door way and told us to wait till our name is called.

" alright everyone these guests are pretty famous for their out of the blue activism and have collected a huge fan base in a little less than a month. Please welcome to the show Wesley and Peteerrrrr."

We began to walk. My heart was in my throat.

The cheering and clapping was deafening. The lights hit me and everything changed. I was happy and ready to go. I smiled and waved at the people. Peter and I were thrilled. Our lives were different. The host got up and hugged us both before she sat back down. We joined her behind the table.

She was in the center. We were on the right side, more hosts were on the left.

" Wesley Peter I just have to start with the tremendous back story. It took some time but his father cleared it up."

"Ya how on earth did you survive all that?"

" ha I understand it's confusing. At the time we were both depressed, not wanting to do anything but hide. "

" that's understandable but how did you overcome?"

" it was hard but we had to understand that things are the way they are because of fear of change."

" fear of change?"

" it's basically a traditionalist. They want things to stay the same because it worked. But that's the thing it did work but the key word is did. Times have changed like technology and civilization, which shows that change is inevitable. It can't be stopped."

" I completely agree..... is that what sparked your sudden activism."

" yes and no. We wanted to tell people that you can't stop the cycle of change coming but we also wanted people to respect the decisions of others. Anyone who is different in some way is looked at as an enemy even though they are of the same flesh and blood. And here's the thing no one is different they are only better at things than others." Peter said with force in his voice.

" you two basically launched a campaign to change the worlds views on gays and stuff like that without think of the repercussions it may have. Is that right?"
