Picture Perfect (TJ Bell/Craig Mabbitt Fluff)

-TJ's Point of View-

I was sitting in my bunk with my arms wrapped around my knees and my face buried inaide of them. It hurt so bad. It felt like nothing in thr world was going to make it better. So here I was screaming my stomach into my knees and crying so hard that I felt like I would fall apart. That's what I did when I was depressed. I would scream until my voice went raw and scratchy then continue to scream until either I had no voice left or the pain was gone. If I had no voice left I usually resorted to punching the wall, because I hated crying.

"Craig, go check on him.  You're the only one who can help him. The poor kid lost his mother in a car accident for fuck's sake and all you want to do is drink instead of going up to his bunk and cuddling him until he feels better!!" I heard Kevin yelling at Craig. I knew that it wouldn't help anything but that's what I wanted the most right now is for him to come wrap me in his loving arms and kiss my cheek and whisper something bullshity like it'll be alright, or at least it won't happen again. That's what made it really click in, I was clutching into myself and holding myself together. My mom was gone and I wasn't going to get her back.

That's when I heard the knock on my door. "Teej, are you okay?" I heard Craig's voice slur slightly. He wasn't that drunk I could tell that much by how straight he was walking and how his voice wasn't slurring too much. He was probably just buzzed enough to let loose and have fun with the boys instead of acting like he had a giant pole up his ass.

"Go away." I said harshly, but I really didn't want him to. I just hated when other people saw me cry. It made me feel weak compared to them. Something that I always hated. I had been raised my whole life to hide my emotion and fight back tears until I was alone and could vent to myself. I never talked to anybody about how depressed I could get and so I turned into this angry anti social person whenever I would cry because of it.

I heard his footsteps moving closer to my bunk as my curtain slid open and he climbed in with me. Damn, he was stubborn as hell.

"I know it hurts, and I'm not going to bullshit you and tell you it's all going to be okay,  because bottom line is, is that she was your supporter but she's not coming back. But I know where you're at. It's where I was at a few years ago when my dad just kind of left me, but you were there for me through that. So, no matter how much you scream for me to go away, I'm not leaving until you push me out." He said stubbornly. He wasn't ever one to sugar coat things and it was what I respected about him and loved.

"It just hurts so much."I said with a shaky gasp of air. He wrapped his arms around me and my world started spinning as I buried my head in his chest and just continued to sob. He rubbed my back and whispered soothing things into my ear until my hyperventilating finally came down and I looked up at him. 

"Hey Craig, can I try something?" I asked sheepishly. I have been wanting to do this for a long time I just didn't know how to approach it because I'm pretty sure that he's straight.

"What do you want to try?" He asked and I started preparing myself for getting rejected when I leaned up and pushed my lips against him.  I expected to be thrown down into my bunk, and pushed away while he called me a faggot. I expected him to reject the kiss and push me away and not talk to me unless he had to for a few months. What I didn't expect was when I felt his lips moving against mine while he used his tongue to explore my moutjh and damn he tasted good. He finally pulled back and looked into my eyes. I found it hard not to get lost in his beautiful stare.

"I love you Thomas Joseph Bell, I have for a long time." He said while a smile tugged on the corners of his mouth.

"I love you too, Craig Edward Mabbitt, I have for a long time now too. Since I first meet you actually." I admitted with a cheeky grin spreading across my face. I found love! Finally, I just needed a hopeless place to do it. I could feel my eyes getting heavy as a yawn escaped my lips. Craig just put me into the little spoon position and kissed my cheek.

"You should get some sleep." He said sweetly while he yawned too.

"Sleep with me? Cuddled up to me?" I asked and looked into his eyes as I kissed his cheek.

"Of course." He said as he pulled me closer. I closed my eyes and drifted off to a world where my mind had painted him picture perfect.
