*mentions of suicide and suicidal thoughts

"Either you are homophobic or you are a human - you cannot be both."

I'm back. It's been a week. I know.
Boris brought me to a bay a few days back. We didn't have any blankets on us. So we sat on the sandy shore and stared at the ocean. The waves were beautiful and the sun reflected perfectly off the side of Boris's face he'd brush the curls behind his ears and look at me. He came up with a nickname to give me. "Potter." He said I looked like Harry Potter from the movies, Classic Boris. He learned the nickname in ASL quickly and proceeded to call me the name. I like it if I had to be honest. I'd stare up at the sky above us. A beautiful mix of Pink and orange in the sky, the sun was setting. "I wonder if this is what mom wanted." I'd sign to Boris slowly. He'd pause for a moment seeing my sad face and reply "I'm sure she wanted this for you, Potter. For you to be happy." He'd sign back. I smile. "Beautiful" I would sign, looking at his face. He'd nudge my shoulder with his. He'd place one of his hands on mine. I'd turn my hand over and intertwine both our fingers smiling. The waves of the bay getting the brim of my shoes wet. Boris picked up a perfectly round stone by his side and tossed it into the water. It sunk almost immediately and he smiled, I laughed. My face slowly turning to a frown before I turned to Boris, who was staring out at the sunset. That was almost gone. I tightened my grip on his hand and he turned to look at me. "Are you alright? Mentally? You never seem to want to talk about mental health." I signed. Watching his smile slowly fade from his face. "I don't know sometimes, Potter... I don't give a crap at all about my dead mother. My father is just... terrible. But I always remind myself that one day I'm going to grow up and get married to you. Have a family and live the life I want. I'm just scared about the passing time. We're kids Potter. We should be playing video games on a cool summer night. Not dealing with a drunk abusive father or a dead mother." He signed in reply. I could see him tearing up. "Listen Boris. We'll be out of here in no time. We won't have to sneak out anymore. We WILL have the life we both wanted. Suicide is not the answer now. It was before, it isn't now. Your fifteen. Going onto sixteen before we know it." I signed while trying to smile. Wiping off the tears off of Boris's pale skin with my sleeve. He also tried to smile.
At this point I believed the sun was gone. It was dark. We both realized it and stood up. Once we were done wiping the sand off of our pants, I hugged Boris. Who hugged back without hesitation. I kissed his lips... he kissed back as well. Once I pulled away I felt him scoop me up in his arms. I laughed a bit. " thank you Boris. Today was great, like all the days have been with you." I signed, Boris smiled his beautiful smile I love seeing. "Now let me pay for the food next time." I jokingly signed. I saw him laugh "good one. But that's my job." He signed in reply. I smiled and rolled my eyes.

"Let's get home." I said.


"Sure thing, Potter"

((OML how was that!!! I loved writing this chapter. The music put me in the mood. This took so long. It's kinda sad, I almost shed a tear writing this. The music makes you emotional. If you aren't listening to it while your reading what are you doinG?
Note: *i don't know how to do Boris's Bad English that well so he's gonna be good at English in this.
*Also I put 'signed' instead of 'said' or 'told' because Theo's deaf and I don't wanna confuse myself
Anyways... what's your favorite book? Mines The Goldfinch >:) yass))
