Love Changes Everything

Chapter One

As Aaron leaned in to kiss his boyfriend before leaving for a smoke, he couldn't help but gaze into those big brown eyes and wonder how he has become so lucky. It's only been a few months since his life was in turmoil, what with the struggling to accept his sexuality, that night in the woolpack when he practically knocked Jackson into next week and the court case where he finally admitted to himself and his family he was gay. Now here he is happy with the person that made him realise who he was, even if it had been in dire circumstances. Aaron leaned in for one final flirty kiss and with a look that said it all turned away to head for the door of bar west, slyly looking back at the sexy builder he called his boyfriend.

Outside, whilst having a smoke, he spotted mickey pulling up outside a club and all those feelings of hatred and rage swept through his body once again, this is where Aaron thought to himself he would get his revenge, where micky would pay for what he did to Clyde.. has Aaron stood across the street waiting for mickey to disappear, Jackson realised Aaron was taking some time so decided he would go out and look for him, when Jackson exited the bar he couldn't see his lover and began to panic, as he rang Aarons mobile he could hear the rave song that was his ringtone play so knew he must be close by, as his eyes scanned the street frantically he spotted Aaron in a shop doorway angrily staring at someone or something and as he followed Aarons gaze he realised there was trouble brewing.

Jackson ran across the road and confronted his lover,

'What do you think you are doing?' Jackson asked angrily

'Thinking of what I can do to that dickhead who killed my dog!' Aaron replied sharply and with such hatred in his voice.

'if you do anything stupid we are through and I mean it this time Aaron, I'm sick of your tough man act and your constant attempt to do people over who have wronged you, you always spoil things when its going well, can you not just accept what's happened has happened and for a reason?'

'You want me to forget that, that bastard killed my dog and is getting away with it?'

Jackson looked at Aaron and saw the upset and guilt in his eyes, as he knew Aaron blamed himself for what happened, but in true Aaron style sorted out his problem with his fists.

'Yeah I do, come back inside and we can still have a great night?' Jackson begged his lover

As Jackson waited for Aaron to look at him and come back inside with him he realised that wasn't going be the case and turned away with a 'pppffft'

Aaron looked and asked him where he was going?

Jackson replied,

'I told you it was over if you did anything stupid and your clearly not going to listen so Aaron it's over and I'm going'

And with that Jackson turned on his heels and walked away as much as it broke his heart.

As Aaron stood transfixed with a glare that could kill directed at mickey, he realised what it was he was jeopardising and looked around to find Jackson…..He was gone!

With him nowhere in sight Aaron rang him to find out where he was… no answer!

Aaron kept ringing and ringing until Jackson eventually answered with an abrupt 'what'

'Where are you?' Aaron asked meekly

'On my way home Aaron! As I said before, it's over between us!'

'But I don't want it to be over Jackson, we have a good thing going and i need you!' Aaron replied with the clear sound of upset in his voice.

' a good thing going, a good thing going, tell me how what we have is good all we do is argue, usually over you being hot headed, there just seems to be a lot of giving and no receiving in this relationship Aaron and it isn't coming from you. Your clearly uneasy when where out in public and you never show me any affection, I don't think I could be in a relationship where I receive nothing in return for my clear devotion towards you, I told you I loved you and I meant it and I don't even get anything in return'

With that said the line went silent.

'Aaron are you there? This is what I mean, every time I'm honest with you, you clam up and hide in your shell'

'I... I... I... do want to say to you how I feel Jackson, honest I do but… but…! Where are you come and pick me up and we can talk'
