Paul was now getting out of the car, finally returning from the shops. He pulled in the driveway, and noticed something on the porch. He parked and got out of the car, as he got out he had a better view of what the object was, it was a box? He stepped closer and saw that it had a letter, he picked it up and read it.
"Dear paul, fuck off. I know what you did, don't try to deny it. I would think you were better than to do something like this.. Never would I have imagined it would end this way.. But guess things happen. I put all your shit in this box, don't bother coming in MY house. and don't try to come and find me. Love John
Paul was shocked, his mouth slightly opened, his eyes wide. He couldn't believe what he had just read. What could John have been talkin about?? Paul has never done anything to ruin their relationship, He loved John.. with all his heart. He didn't know what all this was about, but he knew for sure he needed to get to the bottom of this. He couldn't lose john.. He couldn't
Paul waited all night by the door, He knew john wasn't home at this hour. He was off at work. So he waited.. He needed to talk to john, he needed to know what happened. Finally after hours passed, John's car pulled up into the driveway, paul stood up, dusting his pants off, cautiously walking towards the car, he stood by the door, he peered in, seeing john looking the opposite dirrection. Paul tapped on the glass, this caused john to snap his head in paul's direction, his face showed of no emotion.
John pushed the door opened, the door hitting against paul in the process. John didn't say anything but closed the car door, and walked towards the house. He didn't even glance at paul. He took out his keys, and tried to open the door. But a hand was placed on his, he froze. He looked up and stared at paul. "......I told you to leave." his eyes were filled with pain and anger.
Paul has stumbled back a bit, but continued to walk towards john. "John please.. I don't know what this is about, please ..belive me.. Please.." John just laughed dryly, "Yeah.. im sure you don't..." He rolled his eyes, and rubbed the tears from his face. "You know ... I am so stupid... So stupid to actually think you would ever truly love me... I should have seen it from day one, the way you looked at her.. the way you loved to be around her... You could never look at me.. the way you looked at ... Linda"
Paul froze, he gasped softly. "John what is this about? What the hell are you on about??" John finally had it, he snapped. "THAT IS IT! YOU ACT LIKE YOU DIDN'T DO ANYTHING! I KNOW YOU DID, I KNOW YOU CHEATED ON ME PAUL, DON'T ACT FUCKIN STUPID!" John's face had now gone red, he was fuming, tears still streaming down his face.
Again paul stood there frozen... John had stopped talking, breathing heavely. Nobody said a word, both quiet. John just breathed out once again, "Guess that answers it then.." He turned around and continued to walk towards the door. Before he stepped in the house he heard 4 little words, barely audiable from the man behind him. "I....I didn't do it.."
John stopped and turned around, "Dont you lie to me ....I know you did.. I- I saw you guys together! At the shops paul, i saw you kiss her!" Paul shook his head, "It wasn't like that, it was on the cheek , john please! I didn't cheat, there is nothing going on between me and linda please belelive me!" John shook his head, "I- I cant paul.. Why should I.... I know you always loved linda... I was always a side character to your guys' story.. and dont even deny it.. I cant belive you paul.. I can't."
Paul couldn't believe what he was hearing, He would never in his life cheat on john, he loved him more than anything. That day at the shops was just a day out, he was helping linda he had recenlty found out she was sick, he took her out to help her get some worries off her chest.
Paul couldn't take in any longer, "..She's sick..." was all that came from his mouth, John looked confused, but said nothing, "Linda.. She has cancer.. " John looked taken back, he froze and didn't know what to say.. "That day.. She told me about it, she looked so scared.. so worried. I coulnd't and wouldn't let her feel that way.. John the look in her eyes, she .. she doesn't have much time left. I took her out that day to help her, help distract her for a bit, to be happy.. Y'know.. ....I would never cheat Johnny.. Ever."
The two people were now silent once again, paul soon realized john was not going to say a word, so he let out a shaky sigh his eyes welling up with tears as well, he turned around and started to walk away
He was getting further away from the house when suddenly he heard footsteps running towards him, "PAUL! PAUL WAIT!" Paul turned around and saw john running towards him
Paul stopped and waited for john. John finally got about 6 feet away from paul, he didn't look up at him though ands stared at the ground, trying to catch his breath. Until finally, he spoke.. "Is it true... Is that the truth.. ?" Paul nodded slowly letting a tear slide down his cheek, "Its all true johnny.. I would never hurt you.."
Not even a second had passed since paul had stopped talking until John swiftly connected his lips with paul's. He brought him close, his hand caressing his cheek ever so softly, his other taking hold of paul's hand. Their lips moved softly and slowly against each others, holding one another close, feeling safe at last. So there they stood, on the sidewalk, Their tear stained faces, soft breathing, and a beautiful glow from the moon.
John was the first to pull back, he placed his forehead against paul's, and looked into his eyes, "Im so sorry paulie... Im so stupid.. and im sorry, please forgive me luv.." Paul smiled softly, "It's fine johnny... I know you were just worried... But listen please.. If you ever feel bad about something, or unsure of my love for you.. never forget.. I love you and only you.. You're the only one i want by my side when i fall asleep.. the only face i wanna see when i awake.. You're the only one for me... My johnny.. My love." With that John had tears in his eyes once again, as they brought each other close for another sweet and tender kiss. All was forgiven, and from that day forward john never had a doubt that paul truly loved him. And he knew.. one day.. He would marry this man.
