Day 10

*Adam thinks, days 9-137? What happened there? He continues to read, hoping to find out.*

Day 138

Tommy's Diary

He's coming back! Finally, life's been hell while he was gone. I couldn't stand another day without seeing him. Too bad he's only here for a week or two. God my life sucks. Maybe I should just die after he leaves. I don't think I could handle the pain any more. Where did I go wrong and fall in love? It seems like such a stupid thing to do now.

*Adam remembers what those days were. It was for the rest of the school year and some of June where he left for that music school he'd been accepted to.

"Tommy said he'd be fine dammit," Adam yelled at no one and then continued reading.*

Tommy's Day

"Tommy!" he heard his mother yell.

He looked in the mirror one last time and sped down the stairs. Standing there was the angel he'd called his boyfriend for the first time in months. Tommy was thrilled that Adam was there but was unsure if he'd felt the same way, so he stood a couple of feet away looking down at this shoes.

"Tommy?" Adam asked like he was unsure.

Tommy looked up to see Adam staring intently at him. He closed the few feet between them and was engulfed in a hug.

"Adam," I sighed.

Finally my Adam was home.

"I missed you," he said.

"I missed you too," I said and looked up at his clear blue eyes.

"I love you," he said, wiping my bangs out of my eyes and tucking them behind my ear.

"I love you too," I said, "so much."

"Boys, I hate to get in the way, but shouldn't you get going?" my mom asked gently.

"Go where?" I asked.

"Somewhere special," he said and took my hand.

"Bye mom!" I yelled out the door as Adam dragged me to his car.

"Get in," he said, stepping in to the driver's seat.

I got in and was embraced with a smell I had missed. Adam's scent devoured my senses.

"Where are we going?" I asked again.

"You'll see," he promised and we drove off.

Adam's Day

"Tommy!" she yelled.

He ran down the stairs in record speed but when he saw me, he came to a halt and looked down at his shoes.

"Tommy?" I asked, unsure of why he'd stopped. Was I not the person he'd expected?

He looked up and stared at me and the closed the gap between us.

"Adam," he sighed.

I was finally home with my baby.

"I missed you," I said.

"I missed you too," he said, looking up at me.

"I love you," I said, wiping his bangs out of his eyes and tucking them behind his ear.

"I love you too," he said, "so much."

"Boys, I hate to get in the way, but shouldn't you get going?" his mom asked gently.

Oh that's right, we had somewhere to go.

"Go where?" he asked.

"Somewhere special," I said and took his hand.

"Bye mom!" he yelled out the door as I dragged him to my car.

"Get in," I said, stepping in to the driver's seat.

"Where are we going?" he asked again.

"You'll see," I promised and we drove off.

Adam's Diary

God I love him. I am so glad we are going to see each other again today. I couldn't ask for anything more. I love you Tommy and I'm coming.

*Adam froze. The day had been almost perfect. But something bad was going to happen and he didn't need to read any further to know that. This wasn't going to be an easy one to read, he thought as he turned to the next page that was stained with tears.*
