Two weeks

Thats how long it has been since Ryan asked Troy if they could take a little break. He said he needed time to clear his head.

Two weeks

Was the last time Troy had eaten a proper meal. Also how long its been since his basket ball game hasn't sucked.

Troy and Ryan had been going out for about three months. They had told everyone, and they were happy together.

Or so Troy thought.

Flashback

''Hey, Troy''

''Oh, hey'' And he kissed Ryan on the cheek and then realized that he looked a little odd '' You OK?''

''Not really'' He said, sitting down.

'Oh no' ''Really? About what?''

''I was wondering if we could take a break for a short while?'' He asked, looking at his hands.

''Oh, um, sure, If thats what you want''

''Thanks Troy'' And Ryan left the room.

That was Two weeks ago.

End flashback

And since that day, Ryan had barley looked in Troy's direction. Since that day, Troy could care less what he looked like. His hair was always a real mess, his clothes were baggy and wrinkled. And at any given moment he looked like he was going to puke and/or cry.

But the worst was that in those two weeks Ryan looked the same as always. Troy just knew that he was losing hin and if he was going to stop that he would need a brilliant plan. While the rest of the class took notes on the evils of cell phones (Darbus's class) he was scheming. By the end of class he knew exactly what he was going to do. As soon as the bell rang Ryan walked out and Troy, a moment later, followed behind him. Ryan walked to his locker, put a few things in, then started heading to the auditorium, for some after school,alone, practice. He was in an empty hallway when Troy pulled him in to an empty class room and pushed him against a door.

''Whaa...'' Ryan started

''Shh... I'm sorry, after this you can smack me, hurt me, spit on me, hell you could even kill me. But if I'm going to lose you I need to do this, so please don't stop me'' And before Ryan could respond, Troy threw his arms around ryans neck and kissed him.

Ryan didn't move for a few seconds, but then he brought his arms around Troy's waist and kissed him back. When the broke apart, Ryan was the first to speak.

''Troy,your not going to lose me'' He said, smiling.

''Then why did you ask for a break?''

''Because things were really great and I was afraid of the backlash. But havent you heard that expresion. If you love something''

''Let it do, if it comes back to you''

''Its yours, and if it doesn't''

''Then it was never yours to begin with'' Troy finished ''Love?''

''Yes, love. I love you, and it killed me to see you so sad for the past two weeks''

''I love you, too'' Troy smiled, and it looked happier than he had it the past two weeks. He threw his arms around Ryan's neck again and hugged him tight.

''Hey, Troy?'' Ryan asked, with his head in the crook of Troys shoulder.

''Yea''

''Just to let you know, you really stink''

''HEY!!!!''
