The Heartbreak Hotel

𝙸

"WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU?!" He yells at me, and I feel all the confidence I once had fade.

We all jump up from the table, and Shane grabs my hand. Then, both him and Morgan jump in front of me, protecting me.

"Stay back." Shane whispers to me, and starts walking towards his dad as Morgan tries to follow.

"Both of you." Shane says sternly, and I'm taken aback slightly being that Shane never talks sternly.

"Keep him safe. And keep yourself safe." He says to Morgan, and she nods.

"WHAT ARE YOU WEARING? SHANE DAWSON TAKE THAT SHIRT OFF RIGHT NOW! I WILL NOT HAVE ANY OF THAT IN MY HOUSE!" He says, yelling at Shane for his Bi pride sweater.

"I'm a part of it." He says quietly, and his dad gives a disgusted look.

"YOUR JOKING RIGHT? THIS IS ALL SOME SICK INSIDE JOKE RIGHT? I ALWAYS KNEW YOU WERE ONE OF THEM!" His dad yells, and Shane stays silent.

"I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS! MY ONLY SON IS A DISGUSTING PIECE OF SHIT GAY! NO WONDER NO ONE LOVES YOU! YOUR USELESS!" He yells at Shane, and I resist the urge to rip out his throat for calling Shane names.

Teresa almost says something, but Shane tells her it's ok.

"I'm bi. Not gay. I like both boys and girls." Shane says, not raising his voice one smidge.

"WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE? YOUR STILL A FAG! I CAN'T WAIT TILL YOU ARE BURNING IN HELL, AND YOU REALIZE YOU SHOULD HAVE LISTENED TO ME!" His dad yells, and I ball my fists.

"DO I NEED TO TAKE YOU TO CHURCH AND BAPTIZE YOU? JUST TELL ME WHAT YOU NEED TO DO TO GET RID OF THIS GAY YOU'VE SOMEHOW GAINED OVER THE YEARS!" His dad screamed, utterly disgusted.

"I didn't "gain" it. I was born it." Shane says, rolling his eyes.

"NONSENSE! PURE BULLSHIT!" He says, and looks at me.

"OH! AND LET ME GUESS! THAT TWINK THAT YOU ALL ARE PROTECTING IS YOUR LOVER RIGHT?!" He asks, and Shane gives an angry look.

"Don't you ever fucking call him that again."  Shane says, and the surprised look on my face showed I had never seen him cuss like that, or talk that angrily.

"OH! SO IT'S TRUE? THAT'S YOUR BOYFRIEND?" His dad asks.

"Yes. That is my boyfriend. He's the most adventurous, intriguing, loving person ever. He's not usually a shy, quiet person. He's loud, and outgoing, and outspoken. He's everything I'm not and he makes me so, incredibly happy. So if you cared about me, you'd let us be." Shane says, blushing thinking about me.

His dad fakes a gag and walks closer to Morgan.

Morgan walks backwards, still protecting me.

He gives Morgan the most angry look and aggressively says, "MOVE!"

She stands still, with her hands folded over her chest, and rolls her eyes with a smirk, not showing any sign of fear.

"MORGAN! I FUCKING SAID MOVE."

"And I'm saying no. I'm not gonna let you hurt him. Sorry." She says shrugging, an annoyed look playing on her features.

"Can we wrap this up? I'm lowkey getting kinda bored so..." she says, grabbing me and leading me upstairs.

Before she could move more than a few steps, Shane's dad grabs and moves Morgan out of the way, so that he's right in front of me.

"STOP!" Teresa yells, coming over to me.
