"Why are you crying?" Their voice is laced with worry. You take in all of it. Every detail of their face, their body. You smile sadly. "I missed you," You reply with tears in your eyes. You missed them so much. Their laugh, their jokes, the small gestures. You missed simply being in their presence. So, every time you close your eyes, it was an escape. "So did I," You smile at how genuine they sound. They open their arms and cock their head to the side. You don't hesitate, not in the slightest. Their arms wrap around your waist and their scent engulfs your senses. In this moment, in an embrace with them, you feel safe. You forget all about your insecurities, you forget about how things are at home, you forget about your grades, and you simply exist with him. In this moment, you couldn't care less that everything in your life is slowly falling apart because their arms are wrapped around you and this is where you'd rather be than anywhere else in the world.

Before I knew it my shirt was torn away from my torso and tossed on the floor, Charlie's doing the same. Our kiss intensified and I felt him groan against my lips. I swear to god, this boy is making out with me like his life depends on it! And that's when reality punched me in the gut... the words 'this boy' kept running through my head over and over again until it got through the thick fog of vodlka and whatever else was in those stupid drinks. I, Ace Loughty, was kissing a guy. A fucking guy. A fucking straight guy named Charlie Simmons who of course had to be one of the most popular dickheads in Meadow Ridge High. I am so unbelievably fucked. ----- 17 year old Ace Loughty was never one longing to be in the spotlight. In fact, he craved the exact opposite: being left alone. When Ace was 13, the tragic death of his younger sister Eleanor caused him to rapidly gain popularity and pitiful looks. He hated the attention. All of a sudden everyone wanted to be friends with the dead girls brother, they'd promise Ace he would never be alone that they would always be there for him, which he of course knew was untrue, they're all just hungry for attention. Sometime later the school moved onto other drama and gossip, things started to die down and people finally left Ace alone. He moved on with his life, convincing himself he was over Eleanor's death and as quick as the whole thing started, he returned to being lonely, weird, quiet nobody Ace. Just how he liked it. That is until 4 years later when he found himself sprawled out on a bed. With Charlie Simmons hovering over him. Charlie Simmons who was kissing Ace like he would die if he ever dared to stop. Which was all too true. Without kissing Ace, Charlie was as good as dead. *WARNING*: This story will contain themes of severe depression, suicide, abuse and somewhat graphic depiction of self harm.
