END ME

25

Henry's POV

I stood up, not bothering to put my shirt on. "Stay here ok? I'll go see who it is.." Patrick nodded and slowly got off the floor and curled up in my bed. Awh. I walked down the hall and to the front door. I opened it and to my surprise it was Patrick's mom. "Uh hello?" She smiled "henry! You look tired, I hope I didn't wake you... I just decided to stop by to see if Patrick was around? He was supposed to come home last night..." I thought about it for a second. "He didn't come home?" I threw on a worried look. "Oh... well I haven't seen him all day.. I hope he's ok. Have you checked belch Huggins or victor criss' house?" She shook her head "no I haven't... could you give me their addresses?" I grinned a little and grabbed a pen and paper, writing down the addresses. As soon as she left I locked the front door. Something about her just doesn't seem right... ever since she got here. I don't trust that hoe one bit. After she left I walked back into my room, Patrick was cuddled up under my blanket, he opened his eyes slightly. "Who was it? And can you turn off the light it's too bright.." I flipped the switch next to me "it was your mom... she said you we're supposed to be home last night..." he sat up quickly "oh god what did you tell her?" I grinned a little and stood in front of the bed. "I told her I haven't seen you since last night and gave her two random addresses and told her that's where belch and Vic live..." he laughed "oh my god I fucking love you..." I also laughed as I got out my phone. I looked at my notifications and my heart dropped. "Patrick...." he rubbed his eyes and looked up "hmm?" I started panicking.. "s..." I took a deep breathe as my heart sped up. "Some kids from school saw the Tik tok with us.. literally everyone is reposting it... oh fuck, this is so embarrassing.." he frowned a little. "Why is it so embarrassing?" I let out a shaky breath, can my heart just work normally???

"Patrick that Tik tok was so cringey are you kidding me? Now practically everyone we know has seen it.." he just seemed to get even sadder. "I didn't think it was that cringey..." I scoffed "dude are you fucking serious? Most of the people in this town are homophobic... we can't have people just showing this around... what do we do? Everyone's gonna think we're fucking weird..."

Patrick's POV

I started going from sad to angry. "You're worried if people think we're weird?! Henry... we literally torture kids for fun! Everyone already knows we're weird... and who gives a fuck about all the ignorant, homophobic bitches in town... we never gave a fuck about them before! You-... you're being such a douche right now you realize that right? You never worried about people knowing we're gay until now... who are you so worried about seeing this?" He turned away from me. "No one it's just embarrassing.... that app is for kids.." I huffed "don't turn your back to me.. and literally everyone else in our class has it... why are you getting so upset over something as stupid and harmless as a Tik tok? You should be happy it went viral, the chance of that happening to us is low.." he turned around "I never even wanted the stupid Tik tok posted anyway! I told you not to post it but you did anyway!" My sensitive ass started tearing up from both anger and sadness. "Stop saying it's cringey and stupid! I re-..really like it.. I think it's cute and I'm sorry.. I posted it on accident I meant to click save..." he groaned "why are you crying? Baby there's no reason for you to be crying..." I glared and laid back down, covering myself with the blanket so he couldn't see me. "Why am I crying? You're freaking out over a cute video of us and you're saying it's cringey and basically telling me you don't want anyone knowing about us which is just-.." I took a deep breath to keep my tears from spilling over. My voice was a little shaky so I tried clearing my throat. "You just seem ashamed of us... you should be proud.. I... I am.. I don't care who knows because I love you and you love me and that should be enough... it shouldn't matter what others think.. I should be enough..." I felt the bed sink down as he moved to where he was laying next to me.. I felt his hand slide under the blanket. He slowly rubbed my arm. "Patrick... I'm sorry it seems like I'm ashamed of us... I just... I already have enough homophobia at home... I just don't want to have to face it everywhere else I go..." I didn't say anything, not gonna lie henry apologizing is rare so I wanted to take advantage of this moment. I scooted a little further away.

"Princess.." as soon as he spoke that word into the silence my stomach filled with butterflies. "Please don't be upset... I get why you're so angry with me and.. I'm really.. g-genuinely sorry just please don't ignore me.. that hurts worse than any homophobic shit anyone could do or say to me..." I sighed a little and scooted back and turned around so we were facing each other. It felt nice to have his muscular arms wrapped around me. He moved the blanket away from my face and looked at me. "My poor baby... I didn't mean to make you cry.." he gently used his thumb to wipe my tears from my face. I smiled a little and grabbed his hand, holding it close to me. "I love you..." Henry smiled back "I love you too.." I smirked "I love you more." Henry laughed "ok well I love you most.." I rolled my eyes and shook my head "no way bowers... I definitely love you most.. we both know it.." he scoffed jokingly. "Patrick... stop denying the fact that I love you most..." I ripped the blanket off of my body and climbed on top of him. "Let me win.." he looked me up and down. "And If I don't?..." my hands travelled from his chest to his wrists. "If you don't let me win then you'll regret it..." he twisted his wrists away from my grip and grabbed onto my waist. "Don't forget I can turn you into a whimpering, whining mess within minutes..." I suddenly felt in superior (in a sexy way nOt a bad way). "F-..." I laid back down with a whimper. "Fine.. you win..." Henry looked pleased.
