Author's Notes: I love Mihael Keehl. Ooops, sorry Mello, did I just get you killed? ROFLMAO. But seriously, I feel so inspired right now, I'm writing these babies like crazy. I also wrote another HSM fic, so check out my profile and read it if you want. I think it's pretty good, but tell me your opinion in a review. NE way, enjoy the chapter.

Prologue

He had loved Troy from the very moment that he had laid eyes on the boy when they were but I kindergarten. Well, not really when he had laid eyes on him but close. It was when Troy had saved him, more than likely out of pity but that part doesn't matter now anyway.

It was during a game of smear the queer, ironically enough that the Golden Boy of East High had saved him.

The captain of the two teams, being Troy and his best friend Chad, were picking players to be on their group and Ryan didn't bother to hold his breath while waiting for his name to be picked. It was given that little blonde boy Evans, will be one of the lasts one in the crop to be chosen, along side the kid who ate glue during art class and the boy who was always wheezing even with his inhaler hanging around his neck.

But amazingly enough, right after Troy and Chad figured out who got to pick first by paying a game of rock paper scissors, Troy won and turned to Ryan to give him a lopsided grin.

Ryan still remembers that day when Troy held out his hand for Ryan to accept. A symbol of things to come, a start of something new.

Ryan still remembers the words Troy said to him then. And Ryan still remembers the feeling of actually being wanted. The feeling that someone liked him.

Ryan remembers. And he treasures that memory, clinging to it as if for dear life. Because he knows that that would be all he had of Troy. A memory from so long ago that the brunette probably doesn't even remember anymore.

But the words still echo inside Ryan's head, it stills brings a smile to his face, and hope in his heart.

"I pick Ryan."

To be continued…

A/N: 'Tis the prologue ye just read. If thou be kindest, I plead to thee, leave a comment. Okay.. yes, I am crazy. Well, this is not the sequel to Once Upon a Time, that one I still have to type up. But this is sort of like a spin-off from it. For some reason, I'm just really into that whole love reunited thing and I really am a big fan of TRYAN. So, tell me what you think, and I'll tell you I love you. WE all win! By the way, did anyone catch my little Mello joke? Just curious. Ignore the crazy person.
