Him

"Now they're both like this."

"Why your Mom did that? She has always been on your side." Justice asks while cleaning the cuts. I'm crying like a baby because of the pain and the situation.

"I don't know. She probably just drank too much." Marcus answers and shrugs his shoulders.

All the time Marcus sat next to me and held my hand. Sometimes he left small kisses in my face or on my hand. I love this boy.

"So you are together now?" Justisce asks and points at our connected hands. "Yeah." Marcus smiles. "Cute."

"What's with your hand?" Marcus asks and points at my broken hand. "It hurts." I sobb. "You have to go to the doctor. Maybe it got worse." She says worried.

"But what about the other bruises. What if he asks questions?" Marcus asks worried. "Just say he had a fight with some other guy. But you really have to go there."

"Okay I'll take him tomorrow." Marcus sights. "Should I stay a bit longer or should I leave?" She asks.

Marcus looks over to me who is still silently crying. "I don't know. I think it's okay." He smiles lightly over to me.

Between my sobs I force a smile and squeeze his hand. "I'll go get some painkillers." Marcus smiles and leaves the room.

"Does it hurt so much?" She strokes my cheek. I shake my head. "Why are you crying then?" She asks again.

„N-now they're b-both like this."I sobb. „She was just drunk. She won't be like him too." She tries to comfort me. Weakly I nodd.

Marcus comes back and locks the door. "Here these should help." He gives me two pills and a glass of water.

Justice helps me to sit up and drink. "I'll leave now. If you need me just call me." Justice says and climbes out of the window.

"Let's sleep. Tomorrow is school." Marcus suggest and goes over to his bed.

Marcus' p.o.v
I change quickly and fall asleep soon. In the middle of the night a faint voice wakes me up.

"What?" I whisper. "Can I sleep with you?" Martinus asks quiet. I make some space and lift up my cover.

Martinus cuddles close to my chest and huggs my waist. "Does it still hurt?" I ask. He shakes his head. "How should we act in school?" He asks.

"I- I don't know." I anwser. "We shouldn't act diffrent. No kissing or touching." I add. He nodds. "I'll just hang out with Justice and you will with-" he stops talking. "I'll break up with her." I say.

"Why?" He asks. "Because I love someone else. Someone better. Someone more hot and sexy and beautiful and cute." I smile.

He blushes and looks down. "I love you" I whisper and kiss his head. He turns his head up again and looks into my eyes.

"I love you too." He smiles and kisses my lips. We cuddle close to eachother and fall asleep.

In the morning my annoying alarm wakes me up. Martinus is still sleeping in my arms. That's unusual. Usually he wakes up earlier and wakes me up with water.

I have to smile when I look at him. His calm face and his mouth is slightly open. His hands and his legs are wrapped around me.

„Tinus wake up." I whisper softly and shake his shoulder. "Five more minutes please." He sais and places his head on my chest again.

Okay, shaking doesn't work. Then something else. Softly I press my lips on his. I didn't expect him to kiss back but he did.

"Morning sleepy." I chuckle. "Morning cutie." He answers. I have to smile of his answer. "Get up we have to go to school." He sais and already got up. Wow kissing worked really good.

Slowly I get up too and walk to the closet. I take ripped jeans and a Levi's hoodie for me and change. I'm still shirtless when two arms get wrapped around my waist from behind.

"What are you doing babe?" I ask and enjoy his touch. "I don't know. I just wanted to touch your abs." He answers and kisses my neck. I turn around and look into his shiny eyes.

"I. Love. You." I say and peck his lips between each word. "I love you more." He sais and kisses my collarbone. His hand is again on my belly.

I slowly go under his shirt with my hand and lift it over his head. I haven't seen him shirtless since a few months. He got thin. Really thin. When Justice was here he always had his back to me or it was too dark.

I stroke over his rips and kiss his neck. I can see every bone. I decide to ask him about it later. "We should get dressed now. We have school." I say after some minutes. "Marcus?" Martinus asks. He sounds scared.

"Yes?" "What if they're now both like this? And beat us up?" He asks and tears fall down his cheeks. "Hey. Don't even think about this. She was just drunk yesterday. I'll protect you." I whipe away his tears.

He nodds and hugs me again. We dress and pack our stuff together. We walk downstairs and are just about to open the door when our Mom yells something:

"Where do you think you're going?"  "To school." I anwser with cockiness in my voice. "You are not going to school anymore. Back to your room right now! And don't talk like this with your mother ever again." Dad yells behind us.

Both of us don't move one step. "Now!" He lifts hand ready to hit Martinus. Before Dad can hit him I take his hand and pull him upstairs into our room.
