Song for this chapter: Bleeding love by Leona Lewis
Alex POV
It's us against the world
So I fell in love with you. That's what you wanted right? And you know what? You're the best boyfriend I could ever have. The best ever and I love you with all my heart. So I'm glad you didn't give up on me because if you had I would, by now, be further into that dark metaphorical pit you saved me from. I'm so happy even just being in the same room as you makes a warm feeling spread through me from my head to toe. Except our 'friends' have been giving us a lot of grief. Saying it's not right. I know it's tough for you when they call you a pervert, especially after the hell you went through with your uncle, but they just won't listen when I tell them it's what I want; that it's what we both want. They say it's not normal. Falling in love is a perfectly normal thing to do in life. Just because we're both boys they think us being in love is abnormal. Shows how naïve they are.
They don't understand. They don't get it. Nothing can separate us; nothing at all. We'll be together forever. Two hearts beating as one; one soul in two bodies. I'd take a bullet for you; but if you took one for me I would have to kill myself because I can't live without you. So this is what true love feels like. It's scary, but at the same time totally amazing.
But you're breaking Clive. You're starting to wonder if there is any point in carrying on with this life. Let me tell you there is; but I know it's hard; so hard. Please just remember that I love you with all my heart and soul and that my love is definitely something worth living for. Nobody is accepting us for who we are. Even my own flesh and blood is against us. You've even seen it in Owen's eyes. I've seen it in his mind. They're saying it's weird because I'm younger than you. It isn't. Besides every single one of them know that it's an innocent relationship. Please Clive let go of them. If they were really our friends they would be happy for us. I find it hard to Clive. You've lost friends; I've lost my brother.
You make it better for me Clive. As soon as I'm in your arms everything is right again. I'm so glad I have you. As soon as your lips are against mine I'm at peace inside and the outside world melts away. Okay so maybe it's not completely innocent, but there's nothing wrong with kissing right? Especially when it's with the one you love. However they would think it's wrong, heck if Jake was being a good brother at the moment he would probably knock your lights out for kissing me but he doesn't seem to care now. Clive I'm so glad I finally realised that you're the one for me; because, quite simply, I love you.
I'm sure they'll come around. They can't keep this up forever because at the end of the day it's our lives and our choices and it has nothing to do with them. Besides we have to live with them 24/7 everyone will have to accept us soon it really can't go on like this. What they're doing is so unfair; I think they're trying to drive us apart. Maybe they think that if they be so horrible for so long one of us will crack and back down and then split us up and then they'll be happy because that was their goal all along. We won't give them that satisfaction though. We will stick together no matter what, through thick and through thin our love for each other will hold us together. We're not going to give up this fight. For now it's us against the world, my love. It's us against the world.
Drop a line if you like, I would love some ConCrit.
