Chapter 18

   (I can't believe this story has just a few chapters left! I hope you guys will enjoy this)!

   Holden's POV:

   "I want you out of this house. Pack the things you need and go!" Dad said. "But Dad! I have nowhere to go! Please just let me stay!" I pleaded. "I'm sorry Holden. I can't have a gay son in my home." Dad said. I got up from the couch and went over to Mom. "Mom. Please. Convince him to let me stay. Please Mom. I beg you!" I cried out, bending down on my knees and hugging her legs. "Don't listen to him Rebecca! Ignore him!" Dad yelled. I started crying even more hugging her close. I felt two arms pull me back. "Don't make this harder for us Holden. Just do what I say." Dad said. I glanced up at my mother, who just looked away from me. I got up and shook my head. "Nice. You defend your soulmate instead of your own child. How dare you!" I yelled before running away to my room. I took out a duffel bag and threw the stuff I needed in there. I heard my door open. I looked at who it was. Lydia. She was crying. "Holden. Please don't leave me." Lydia cried. I went over to her and hugged her. "I'm so sorry that this has to happen." I said. "Why can't they just see that you're more happier than you've ever been? Doesn't a child's happiness matter to parents?" Lydia asked. I pulled away from the hug and kept my hands on her shoulders. "Please remember that no matter what happens, I will always be there for you. Even when I'm not here with you physically." I said. Lydia cried even more. "Holden. Don't leave." Lydia begged. I teared up hearing her cries and begging. I got up and zipped my duffel bag. "I'm sorry. Do you wanna walk with me to the door?" I asked. Lydia wiped away her tears and nodded. I grabbed her hand and we made our way downstairs. "Lydia get away from him!" Dad yelled. "Dad please! Let me just walk him to the door." Lydia said. "Rebecca please grab our daughter." Dad said. Mom remained standing there and looking away from our father, not moving an inch. "REBECCA!!!" Dad screamed, frightening Mom. She quickly rushed over and took Lydia's hand. "You are forbidden to see your sister! Lydia, if you ever see him again, I will never call you my daughter ever again." Dad said. "I would rather see my brother than to be called your daughter!" Lydia said. Dad widened his eyes at my sister and looked angry at her. I turned to look at Mom and Lydia. "Thanks for not defending me Mom. Goodbye Lydia. I love you." I said, crying out when looking at Lydia. I walked out of the house, trying to block out the sounds of Lydia's cries and screams and begs for me to come back.

   Forest's POV:

   Leela, Jack, and I were getting ready to leave the hospital when I saw Holden walk into the room. "Hi babe!" I exclaimed rushing over to him. I stopped seeing the tear streaks on his face. I noticed he was carrying a duffel bag. "Holden. What happened?" I asked. "Tucker outed me to my parents. My dad kicked me out and my mom didn't even do anything about it! I'm forbidden to see my sister! I can't ever see her again!" Holden sobbed. I grabbed him and hugged him close, having him sob on my shoulder. Jack and Leela looked down on the ground, feeling extremely guilty. "I have nowhere else to go. That was my only home." Holden cried. "You can stay at my house. I have a guest room in my house and my parents are very nice. They aren't homophobic or anything." Jack said. Holden smiled at him. "Thank you so much Jack." Holden said. "You're welcome. You're my friend. I won't leave my friends behind." Jack said. I smiled at him. "Leela, you got a good one." I said. Leela giggled. "I know I do." Leela said wrapping her arms around Jack. I felt really angry at Holden's parents. They were so nice to me. I guess they're actually terrible people.
