Disclaimer: Sally green...oh sally green thanks for writing Half bad I'm not sure what i would so without it.
I'm lying face down on my bed. Well, I guess it's not mine. It's Gabriel and mine's. Though I prefer outside, it's not too bad just lying here with him. I feel Gabriel move.
"Remind me again...We are both black witches right..we prefer the outside...so why are we lying inside."
Gabriel smiles. "So people think we are sort of normal."
I smile. Gabriel is so handsome. And he's my best friend. And, I suppose l, my boyfriend. Gabriel starts to trace the scars on my back. I tense up.
"Does it not.." I look away from his eyes. "Does it not repulse you?"
Gabriel shakes his head and moves his hand to make me look at him in his eyes. "No, but I am repulsed by the monsters that did this to you. You were so little. Aww! Little Nathan must be so cute!"
I smile. "Little Nathan would hate you. He hated everyone."
Gabriel grabs his heart. "No one could hate me! "He says dramatically.
"I didn't realise..." I trail off. He nudges me, beckoning me to continue. I really really like him. He always trusts me and listens. "I didn't realise it at the time but...everyone that was cruel to me when I was a child... They didn't even bother to get to know me. I mean, I'm not that bad right?" I know I sound pathetic but I can help it.
Gabriel kisses me. "They didn't bother to get to know you. They don't know you. But I do. You are my half-code and basically my life. I wouldn't give up on you, Nathan. You're not bad. Okay maybe half-bad but to me...you're all good.
