Again, if you're straight and not into this stuff, I suggest you start asking yourself some questions. Um, if you're under 18 and living at home with your parents, I suggest you erase your history list and make sure to get rid of cookies, lol. Um...the first scene in this chapter is kind of violent, but is important because it shows why the main character was suicidal. It shouldn't be viewed by those with a weak heart or have nightmares easily, but past that scene is all good. So, enjoy! Giving In Part 2 by dark I decided to tell him what happened. Something I haven't told anyone. Even the cops don't really know what happened. "It was about half a year or so. I lived with my mom in Arizona." I began. "I was with Jake." "He..." I started to stammer, wondering how Eric would react. "He was my boyfriend." I stopped there and looked at his face. He looked a little shocked I think, and a bit lost in thought, but was still listening so I continued. "One day, we were at his house. His parents were supposed to be out of town. We were alone in his living room, kind of making out, when..." I stopped there, trying to gather myself. "They came home early and walked in on us. His mom just stood there silent and in shock, but his father...he went crazy. He started to scream that he will not have a faggot for a son. He took a bat that was standing against the wall and hit Jake across the head with it." I had to stop there for a minute, trying not to cry out, replaying the scene in my head. "I knew he was still alive, God knows how or why, but his dad knew too and started beating him with the bat. I tried to stop him, I really did. I jumped on his dad and I tried to take the bat away, but he threw me to the ground and when I stood up, he hit me with it. He hit me in the stomach. I fell halfway across the floor. I later found out he broke three of my ribs and temporarily paralyzed me, so all I could do was watch as this huge man beat my boyfriend to death. He...he never got up. He never got up at all. He wouldn't get up" I was sobbing when I was done. I couldn't stop, the movie was in my head and I couldn't get it out. I couldn't get it out! I sort of cried myself to sleep. The last thing I remember was Eric holding me close and trying to calm me down some. When I woke up in the morning, he was still there, watching me I guess. But he must have fallen asleep at some point in the night. He was lying next to me. I smiled, maybe the first time I've done that in a long time. Maybe this guy wouldn't abandon me. Maybe I've found a friend. And then I fell asleep. For the first time in a long time the nightmares weren't there. To be continued.... Okay, sorry that it was so short. Thank you so much for all the e-mails. I will have a new chapter out soon I hope. I had to get the whole thing cleared up of why he was so sad. I'm sorry for all the criers out there who felt for the story. But I promise, it gets a bit more up-beat. Some more secrets, will be revealed and all that. Plus some more drama, so sit tight. Hope to hear from you. Nightwolf69_19@yahoo.com
