Pain.

There is no more pain, all the pain that has been living inside of me for 18 years is all of a sudden gone. I finally feel like I can breathe fresh air through my lungs for the first time ever, a calming spirit has taken over my body and I feel incredibly strong.

For the first time in my life I know what I am, I know who my family are, I know who I am and most importantly I have the love of my life back.

Still laying in bed next to him, only moments after waking up, a black kind of string connecting us to each other by our fingers and I haven't even noticed that we have an audience, all I know is that I can't take my eyes away from his.

"I feel complete right now next to you Freddie."

He smirks at me.

"If only we were alone right now, you'd be even more complete."

I immediately get embarrassed, I hit his arm wanting him to stop it.

"Freddie! We are not alone so you can't say that!"

Everyone sitting around us erupts into laughter and I can't help but hide my face behind my hands, feeling secretly happy that the Freddie I fell in love with hasn't changed.

"Yes I can, I'm your boyfriend, I can say what I want no matter who our 'audience' is."

Hearing him say that just makes me want the bed to roll up and eat me as I'm sneaking glances at him through my fingers, I can't help but admire how gorgeous he is.

I then feel a hit on my arm, I turn to look and it's Tal.

"Leto, don't ever do that again, you hear me? You scared the shit out of me!"

I can't help but smile at my best friend, not able to say anything back.

"Oh no, don't smile like that, you got me going all mushy."

Freddie then sits up abruptly next to me.

"Where's Cairo?"

His brother responds to him, looking rather awkward.

"He is with Jay, he seems to have grown attached to him, they've been acting especially sketchy lately."

Freddie then smiles, knowingly.

"Enzo, what you and probably everyone else in this room doesn't know is that Cairo has a thing for Jay and I'm pretty sure Jay hasn't the foggiest."

I then sit up against the headboard, I look down at the string connecting me to Freddie and I smile to myself.

"So what now?"

Everyone around the room just gives me empty expressions, like they know they should say something but don't know what to say, I close my eyes, feeling like I must do something.
