He couldn't take it anymore. He had to tell him. He was his first and, in his eyes, only friend. If he waited any longer, it might be too late.

"Hey Matty!"

He turned his head to find Mike washington running towards him with a smile. He sighed. That's the smile he fell in love with.

"Hey Miller. What's up?"

"Nothing much. As you would say, I am just chilling."

Mike chuckled. He thought it was funny how the Decker was trying to grasp urban slang. He never completly got the hang of it, but Mike thought that Matt's attempts were actually kind of cute.

"Hope you don't mind if I hang with you for a while. I got nothing better to do."

"Why me? Why not Pg or Ken?"

"Well, don't tell anyone I told you this, but out of all my friends, your my favorite."

A bright shade if pink showed itself on Matt's cheeks. Mike preferred him over all the rest?

"I thought you would have made Junior your favorite."

"She was my favorite... Until you came around."

'Don't take it the wrong way. Don't take it the wrong way. Don't take it the wrong way.' Matt thought.

"Yo Matt, Can I ask you something?"

Matt nodded.

"Out of all the places to chill, why the Helipad?"

Matt turned his gaze from the guy before him to the massive city of Steelport. He shrugged.

"I like the view."

"Yeah. It's pretty great. Thank god the Saints own it now right?"

Matt nodded. Matt became a Saint after his ordeal with Boston, the Saints leader. He was going to offer some badass discounts, but thought that if he became a Saint than he would have garunteed protection from Killbane and everyone else. To his surprise, the red head agreed. However, when the Saints weren't exactly fond of him at first. The rediculed him, they pushed him around and would always play keep away with his cellphone. He remember how he met the young Washington.

A group of Saint grunts were taunting him and emotionally pushing things to far. His ego seemed big, but in reality he had self esteem so low the ground would look at it and say 'Damn!'. Matt couldn't take it. He fell to his knees and cried, making the grunts taunt him more. As he cried he heard one of the grunts yell out in pain. When he looked up he saw saw the grunt on the floor with a stone sitting right next to him. When he got up another flew right by, almost hitting him again. They all looked to find Mike Washington with a few more stones in his hand.

"Leave him alone you assholes!"

He threw another one, hitting a different grunt this time. The three ran off. Mike walked to the teared up Decker and held out his hand. Matt took it and stood up. He wiped the tears from his face.

"Sorry about those guys. I guess the Saints aren't quite used to you yet."

"No, they're just being playful."

Mike chuckled at Matts sarcasim.

"Anyway, don't worry about 'em. They're just jealous that a kid could do more that they ever can."

Mike held out his hand.

"The name's Mike Washington."

Matt took his hand.

"Pleasure to meet. Thank you for helping me."

"No problem."

Mike smiled. A small blush showed on Matts face. He had a great smile. As time went on, they started hanging out more and more. Before he knew it, Matt had fallen for Mike. He never thought he would love a person of the same sex, but he did. And he would do anything and everything for him. Even if it costed him his life.
