Chapter 18

JACKSON'S POV:

We were watching Stranger Things and Benny looked sad the whole time. He never looks sad while watching Stranger Things! So obviously something really bad happened.

I took the remote and paused the show.

"Benny can you p-please tell me what's wro-wrong?" I ask.

He sighs and looks down at his hands.

"Well, um...I might've told my homophobic dad that I'm gay." Benny says.

"Oh...h-how did he take it?"

Benny sighed and put his head in his hands.

"I kinda had to run upstairs and lock my door so he wouldn't kill me but then my mom had a talk with him. He's leaving the house and he said I'm not his son anymore I guess. Then my mom got mad at me for telling him and she slapped me in the face."

Wow...I don't even know what to say to that.

"Sorry. That's rea-really shitty." I say while he rests his head on my shoulder.

"I guess we're both kinda disowned now."
Benny says.

I sigh. "Guess so."

"WAIT!" I yell.

Benny shoots up. "What? What's wrong?"

"W-what if you lived here?"

"I can't live here! My mom's still at home! Also you live here and I can't just barge into your house! I'm fine where I am. Even though it may not be the happiest I'll be fine. You should just stop worrying. Everything's fine! I don't need to move in. You have this whole house to yourself why would you want me here? I-"

"Benny stop ra-rambling!" I said.

He sighs. "Sorry."

"L-listen I want you here! I would really r-really love you here! You're mom can take care of her-herself." I say.

I see Benny blush and I smile at that.

"So can you please mo-move in with me?"

Benny looks up at me with a smile on his face. "Ok, I will."

I smile and wrap in a huge hug.

"Jackson! I need to breath!" He shouts while squirming.

I laugh at his attempt to break free but finally I let go.

"Thanks." I say.

Benny raises his eyebrow. "For what? You're the one letting me move in here."

I sigh. "Yeah but...I ju-just...kinda don't like sta-staying alone."

Benny smiles and grabs my hand. "I love you, Jackie."

"L-love you too, Bunny."

"Bunny?"

"Well you ca-call my Jackie, so I'm giving you a nic-nickname."

"Why Bunny?" He asked.

"Bu-bunnies are cute, you're cute. It just makes sen-sense." I say while kissing his cheek.

I see Benny blush as he looks down at his hands.

"So...what do you wanna do now?" Benny asks.

"I don't know. Do you wa-want to watch more TV or do s-somet-thing else."

Benny gasps. "Oh! Can I paint your nails?"

I roll my eyes. "No."

"Jackie, please!"

"No."

"Pretty please!"

"No."

"Fine. I'm never kissing you again."

I sigh. "Ok, fine."

"Yay! Do you have any nail polish?" Benny asks with a cute smile on his face.

"Nope. W-we can go to the store and get so-some."

"Ok."

(At the store)

"What color do you want?" Benny asks.

"Um...ma-maybe black?"

Benny rolls his eyes.

"How about pink?"

I fake gag and laugh at his offended expression.

"I will never wear p-pink."

"Please!" Benny says.

"Nope."

"Pretty please!"

"Benny! I'm not wear-wearing pink!"

Benny sighs and gives me puppy dog eyes.
"Not even for me?"

"Ugh fine! Damn your cu-cuteness."

Benny laughs and picks up a pink nail polish.

"This is gonna be so cu-"

"Boys shouldn't wear pink. You're already gay don't make it worse by looking stupid."

Who the hell said that stupid ass shit?

I turn around along with Benny.

Benny's eyes widen.

"Dad?"
