Date: Sat, 3 Jan 2009 21:17:28 -0800 (PST) From: Tyler McHary Subject: You Are The One chapter 3 If you are not allowed to read these types of stories, then please don't continue. As much as I would love for you to read the story, I don't want you to get into trouble. If you're reading this story expecting a lot of sex...sorry, wrong story. Don't get me wrong, I love stories with sex in them too but this one has a developed plot and storyline. ENJOY! :) My night with Andrew was amazing. Having him in my life is the most joy I've felt in a long while. With my parents gone Andrew has filled the void that they left. I don't know what I would do if he was taken away from me. I closed the door to my house and walked into the kitchen to start cleaning up the dishes, I turned the faucet on, then all of a sudden I heard the door bell ring. "Huh...that was fast...maybe Andrew forgot something." I thought as I walked towards the door. Standing there was the last person I wanted to see. "Oh hey Mark, what can I do for you?" Surprised that he was at my house. How did he know where I lived? "Hi Bryan, I just wanted to apologize for the way I acted last night. I was way out of line, I was wondering if we could talk?" He sounded so sincere, I led him into my living room and we both sat on the couch. "Yeah, I didn't mean to take it that far. I was just so angry but I can see that you are both happy and there's nothing that I can do to change that." "Wow, thank you Mark. That really means a lot, I'm pretty sure that Andrew would be happy to hear that you've come around. Listen, do you want anything to drink?" "Sure, can I get some water?" "Of course, I'll be right back." I headed to the kitchen to grab him the water. When I got back to the living room, Mark was standing. "Oh, are you leaving?" "Oh no, I've got some things to take care of." Then it happened in a flash, Mark sprayed with what I thought was pepper spray. "MARK?! WHAT THE FUCK?!" I started screaming, the pain was too much to bear. I was really scared, I tired running away but I tripped on the carpet and fell. I could hear Mark walking towards me but I couldn't get away on time. Then I felt the weight on my body. He was sitting on me pinning my arms down. "It's called revenge asshole. My boss saw the altercation, and decided to fire me. I have no job and you took Andrew away from me!" "You started it!" I started crying, what was he going to do to me? "I started it?" His tone was insanse. "I STARTED IT?" He screamed at me. "Bullshit Bryan, you did. If you had just left us alone none of this would have happened. I'm sorry about the headache." "What headache?" I was confused, then he took the lamp on the side table near the couch and hit me over the head with it. Everything went black. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Andrew: I pulled into my driveway and headed into the house. I quickly grabbed my bag from my room, and as I was walking down the stairs my parents stopped me. "Son, we need to talk." My dad said in a stern voice. "Um...sure dad. Can it wait? I gotta go to Bryan's house to do homework, he's helping me study." "That's what we need to talk about Andrew. I think it's best that you don't see him again." "WHAT?! Why?" I was getting angry, how could my dad tell me who I could see and couldn't. "Well, your mom and I heard from sources that you and Bryan are more than study buddies." "Fine, I admit that I'm gay. And yes, Bryan and I are together. You have to understand that I love him very much." I was getting really impatient and I Wanted to leave the house. "Ok, fair enough. Please son, sit down so we can talk." "I'm sorry dad but it has to wait." "Andrew Masterson Wright, you do what you are told! Sit down now!" "Ok." Was all I could muster. We sat down in the living room. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Back to Bryan: I slowly open my eyes, they're still burning from the spray that Mark gave me. I look around and I see that I'm back in my room, it was eerily quiet. I tried to get up, but I couldn't. I looked over at my arms and they were tied to the bed post as well as my legs. "What? Why am I naked? HELP!!! PLEASE!!! SOMEONE HELP..." I broke down again, why is this happening to me? "No one's here to listen to you." I looked over and it was Mark half naked. "Please Mark, let me go. I won't say anything to anyone. Just please don't hurt me." I pleaded my case, but Mark just wouldn't have it. "Nope, can't do that. I want to find out why Andrew is with you. Maybe he likes fucking you, and we've been friends for a long time and I think it's time to share." He was calm, but his voice was tinged with evil. "No, please Mark. Andrew and I haven't had sex yet, he really does love me. I'm not a fuck toy." "Really now? Mr. Bryan is a virgin huh? I'm gonna have a lot more fun than I thought!" "No! Don't touch me!" I was struggling to get free, I started to sound like a broken record but he just wouldn't listen. He took off his jeans and I can already see that he was hard, the boxer briefs came off next and to my surprise he was huge. "Mark! Reconsider what you're doing, like I said before I won't say anyth-" "SHUT UP! SHUT UP! SHUT UP! I'm so fucking sick of you trying to convince me not to do it. Nothing you say will stop me." He climed onto the bed, I was struggling again but to no avail. He spread my cheeks apart and I could feel the head of the penis next to my hole. There was no lube, he spit on his cock and angrily rammed all 8 inches into me. I screamed in pain, but he didn't care. "Oh my fuckin' God. You're so fuckin' tight. Andrew doesn't know what he's missing." Mark told me, all I could do at that time was just cry. He kept ramming into me like a piston in car. "OH FUCK! I'M GONNA CUM! AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!" He shot 9 volleys into me, I've never been so happy to hear that. Rumors were true, it took him only 5 minutes. I thought to myself that once he was done, he would leave. "Wow, I have to admit that that was a great fuck." He laughed as he was starting to put his clothes on. I was so angry that he took my virginity away from me. I wanted Andrew to do that because I knew that with him it was going to be with love. I was seething, I was getting irrational, I wanted him to know that he just fucked with the wrong person. "Well I'm glad you enjoyed it, because I didn't. The rumors are true, Mr. 5 minute wonder." "FUCK YOU BRYAN! FUCK YOU!!!!!" He got onto the bed again and started beating me. He started punching me in the ribs and the face. He just wouldn't stop, but I would be damn sure that if he does kill me I would be looking at his face so he would remember. I felt blood rushing down my face, the pain overwhelming. I started to slip in and out of consciousness, it felt like he was hurting me for over 10 minutes. He finally stopped, my breathing short and I could barely see, but I knew that Mark was finally gone. I heard his car start and he drove away. I layed on my bed in my own pool of blood, I didn't know how I was going to survive this. Andrew was supposed to be back, I can't die. I just can't... --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Andrew: "Dad, I know that you want me to marry a girl, have kids and live the life that you and mom want me to live, but it's not me. I'm finally happy with Bryan, he makes me want to be a better person. I've been such an asshole to him before I knew I loved him. Even back then it hurt knowing that I was doing that to him. If you guys taught me anything is that love has no boundaries. You have to understand that I'm never going to stop loving him and if you can't accept that then I have to leave." "Young man." My father started. "I'm very proud of you, you stood up for what you believe in and I've never seen you so passionate about anyone before. It will take some time for your mother and I to get used to it, but we love you no matter what. Understand this though, just because we're allowing you to see him that doesn't mean you are allowed to be in this house alone with him without our permission. Do I make myself clear?" "Yes dad. May I go to Bryan's to study now?" "Sure, be back home by 10 ok?" "Ok." I turned to go to the door. "Dad...thank you for understanding. You have no idea how much this means to me. You'll like Bryan, he's my everything." "Alright son, invite him to dinner some time. Get going." I opened the door to my car and decided to call Bryan. I dialed his number, but no answer. Maybe he's taking a nap or a shower. I was gone for a good hour, so I left him a message on his voicemail telling him that I was going to be there in 10 minutes. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bryan: I was still lying on my bed naked, and I still can't move. Mark has been gone for a half hour, and Andrew still wasn't here. I heard my cell ring, but I was so weak that I can't even form any words. Before I knew it, everything went black. Andrew: I got to Bryan's house but something felt weird. I got out of my car and I saw that his front door was open. I ran into his house and called out his name. Nothing. I looked around his house and saw that his lamp was shattered on the floor with blood. I screamed his name again and looked everywhere for him downstairs. I ran upstairs and Bryan's door to his room was open, I walked in and the sight I saw made me want to throw up. Bryan was tied to his bed naked, I ran to him and tried to wake him up. His face was bruised and bloodied, and I can hardly recognize him. "Oh my God Bryan, what happend to you? Who did this? I'm so sorry that I left you." I untied him and I clung to his almost lifeless body. I can barely hear him breathe. I got my phone out and quickly dialed 9-1-1. "9-1-1 emergency." "Please! You have to come to 45333 Gainesville Dr. my...my boyfriend was beaten and he's barely breathing. PLEASE! I can't lose him, he just came to me. Please!!!" I finally broke down, I couldn't stop the tears from flowing. Who would do this to him? "Alright sir, we have an ambulance going there right now. They'll be there in 5 minutes." "Ok." Was all that I could say. The paramedics came really quick and I escorted them upstairs to Bryan's room. My mind went through a panic, I thought to myself that I shouldn't have left but how was I supposed to know that this would have happend? They carried Bryan down the stairs in one of those stretchers where they would lift injured people off a mountain to another stretcher outside the house. There were neighbors watching in horror as Bryan's almost lifeless body was carried into the ambulance. I heard whispers going on between them, most of them were shocked that something had happend to this teenager. I told the paramedics that I was coming with them to the hospital, while on the way there I thought to myself that there was no way I could contact his parents. I've never met them nor did Bryan tell me a lot about them. They needed to know what happen so they can see their only son clinging to life. The ride to the hospital was nerve wracking because there was nothing that I could've done. I was looking at him and I started choking up again, Bryan did nothing to deserve this and as long as I'm alive I will find out who did this and make sure that he gets what he deserves. I was holding his hand but it wasn't the same. He didn't hold back and I thought to myself what I would do if he didn't pull through. I know I shouldn't think about that but any normal human being will think what would happen if their loved one didn't return to them. "Bryan..." I whispered. "Baby, if you can hear me...please squeeze my hand." Nothing, but I wouldn't let that stop me. "I'm with you now, no one is here to hurt you anymore. Give me a sign." Still nothing, I held his hand harder, wondering to myself who would do this to him. Looking at him was difficult and it made me think to the days of when I was with Mark shoving Bryan into his locker and seeing his face with hurt. But nothing can compare to the feelings I was experiencing right now. I've finally found someone who I truly care about and that it could easily be taken away from me was too much to handle. We finally got to the hospital and they paramedics quickly took Bryan into the E.R. I was instructed to stay in the waiting room while they took him to surgery, during that time I called Dana because she was the closest thing to family that Bryan had. "Dana...?" I was trying so hard to control my emotions "Yeah Andrew, what's up?" "You have to come to the hospital. Something bad happend." "WHAT?! Are you ok? Where's Bryan?" "He's...he's...in surgery right now." "WHAT THE FUCK? WHAT HAPPEND?!" The tone in her voice was filled with panic. "I went home to get my homework so Bryan and I could work on it, but my parents wanted to talk with me. I was gone for about an hour and when I got back to his house, his front door was opened and I called his phone and everything but there was no answer. I saw blood in the living room so I..." "Is he ok? Did he fall? "No, he didn't fall. I went upstairs to his room and I found him tied to his bed, he was naked. Face was battered up and bloodied." "OH MY GOD! I'M COMING DOWN THERE RIGHT NOW!" She practically screamed at me, a couple sitting by me heard Dana through the reciever and was shocked at how loud she was. I was going to tell them that she's normally like that but now wasn't the time to joke around. Dana showed up 20 minutes later and rushed towards me. I told her details of the date, the altercation with Mark and what I saw when I was at Bryan's and she couldn't believe what happend. Tears started forming in her eyes when I told her that he wasn't responsive and that I didn't know how long he would be in surgery. We sat waiting patiently for the surgeon to come out and tell us the news, all of a sudden Dana's eyes got huge. "I think I know who did it." "Who do you think Dana?" "Think about it, when you and Bry were at the haunted house you guys ran into Mark right?" "Yeah...wait...WHAT?!" I still wasn't following her, I thought back to the night when we were in line. "He was so mad when Bryan called him out. What I don't get is that how did he know where Bryan lived?" "He probably followed you guys home that night and then came back. I know it's a stretch, but honestly who else would want to hurt him? Nobody at our school could care less about you two, but Mark lost his best friend. Maybe he was getting back at him for taking you away from him." "I've known Mark for years and he's not the type who would do that much harm to another person. Yeah he can be an asshole, but..." Dana cut me off with her hand on my face. "I know Andrew that you guys have been together for a long time, but just think about it. You said that Mark was angry that he got called out for being a douche and maybe that was his breaking point. You have to find out if he really did it?" "How am I supposed to do that? What if it wasn't him? I would look like an asshole accusing Mark and he would stop talking to me." "Listen to yourself Andrew! My best friend, your boyfriend is in the hospital fighting for his life. It's up to us to figure out who did this, if it means hurting someone else in the process then so be it. If you're not going to do then I will." "No...you're right. I just don't know how I'm going to do it." "I think I've got a plan." With a scheming look on her face, Dana told me the plan on how to see if Mark did it. It was a pretty good idea, but the fact that I had to lie to him hurt. I've know him for such a long time and he's practically like my brother, but I need to know. Besides, he's one french fry short of a happy meal so I know it would be easy to dupe him into telling me the truth. As we were concocting our plan, the surgeon came in. "Are you both Bryan's relatives?" He asked. "No, I'm his boyfriend and this is his best friend. Bryan's parents are away on business and he has no other immediate family near by. Is he going to be ok?" "Yes, surprisingly he wasn't hurt that bad. He has a minor cut on his head, a few bruised ribs and swelling on the face. No bones were broken to my surprise because of the condition he was brought in to me. We gave him a few stiches and drained some fluid but all in all he should recover just fine. Although we did see that he was raped, and the perpertrator left some of his semenal fluids inside of Bryan. We took a sample and gave it to the police lab to see if he is in the system." "Wow...Andrew...our boy is going to be ok." "Slow down missy, just because he didn't need extensive surgery doesn't mean he won't stay at the hospital for a long time. Because of his injuries he's going to need a lot of care." "Fair enough." Dana quipped. "Can we see him?" "I don't think it's a good idea at the moment. He needs his rest, you two are more than welcome to come back tomorrow to see him." "Alright." Dana then turned to me and gave me a look that it was time to put OPERATION: TRUTH to commence. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dana and I both visited Bryan the next day, he looked a lot better than he did when I saw him. I was so relieved that he was doing well, but the sad part was that he still wasn't awake. I don't know why...maybe it was all the drugs and pain medication that kept him sedated. Dana and I promised Bryan that we will find out who did this and if it was Mark that he would pay for what he did, we cut our visit short because we needed to plan our "attack". Dana suggested that we do it the old fashioned way and wire myself with a tape recorder to tape my conversation with Mark, it was a good plan but I was still skeptical. The following school day I had the wire on me at all times, and I thought that lunch time was the perfect time to talk to him. I found Mark in line in the cafeteria, I turned on the recorder and I asked him to have lunch with me for old times sake. We found a table far away from people and we started talking. "I'm surprised that you want to have lunch with me Andy." "I know, but with Bryan out of the picture I can do whatever I want." "I heard...how's he doing by the way?" "Still in the hospital, to be completely honest and you can't tell anyone this but I want to thank the person who put him there." "Really? Why is that?" Mark asked, I think I got him! "It's because I never knew how much work it took to be in a relationship with him. Always so fuckin' needy. So I'm happy he's out of my life." "Can I tell you something?" THIS IS IT! "Come on Mark, we're best friends. You can tell me anything." "Alright...I did it." BINGO! "You did what?" "I put him there. I was so tired of him, and the fact that he had the nerve to end a 12 year friendship. I wasn't having any of it. I'm glad you finally came to your senses Andy. I beat the crap out of him and fucked him for the both of us. He won't be standing in our way anymore." I was trying so hard to not to beat the living crap out of him but I had to think about the future with Bryan. I don't think him seeing me in prison was a part of it. "Thank you for that Mark. Listen, I gotta get goin'...I have some homework I need to finish because of the weekend." And with that I left. I found Dana outside again eating in the cold weather. I told her the good news and we decided to skip school to let the police know. We got to the station and we were trying to find anyone who would listen to us. Finally, the detective that was at Bryan's house was there to greet us. "What can I do for you two?" "Well, I found out who committed the crime against Bryan!" I said, pulling the tape recorder out of my pocket. "How were you able to do that?" "Well, both Dana and I had a hunch on who would've want to hurt him. We went with our gut feeling and today at school I got him to speak." I played the recorded conversation with Mark and the detective's eyes got big. All of a sudden he got out of his chair and told us that he was going to take care of everything and that we should go back to school. Both Dana and I had huge smiles on our faces and we were glad that this chapter was coming to a close. We got back just in time for 6th period...I had the same class with Mark...it's going to be really weird and sad at the same time. I don't know what the police are going to do to him. As soon as I finished my thoughts, two men in uniforms burst into the class room and demanded where Mark Catalano is. Mark got up and started running towards the door, but the two officers grabbed him and quickly handcuffed him. Mark was staring at me, and I couldn't look. Even though that we've been friends forever, he did something totally unexcusible. He yelled to me that I was a traitor and that I betrayed a friendship, that was really hard to hear but I knew in my heart that it was the right thing to do. Seeing him being arrested lifted all the burden off of me, I couldn't wait to see Bryan again to tell him the good news! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- I got to the hospital and to my surprise Bryan was awake. I was happy to see that a lot of the swelling go down. He flashed his amazing smile and I walked into his room. "Drew-Bear...you came..." He was holding back tears. I was trying really hard not to cry myself, it was comforting to hear his voice again. "Of course honey, you know that I'll always be by your side. I have some good news! The cops took Mark away, he won't be a problem to us anymore." "How...how did you know that it was Mark?" "Well, he wasn't smart. He didn't know how strong our love for each other was and so I lied to him and told him that I Was happy that you were in the hospital and he just spilled the beans there with my recorder on." "Ooh, sneaky! Sit next to me please." He patted the empty spot next to him and I was actually scared to be near him. The past 24 hours was emotionally draining, I never want to leave his side but I knew that if I kept constant watch on him, he would never heal correctly. "Babe...I promise that I'll always be with you. I won't be overbearing, but this was too much for me. So..." I've been thinking about this ever since I first kissed him. I know that I want to be with him for the rest of my life and I know that we're too young to get married and stuff but I wanted to show him my commitment to him. So I bought a promise ring and I was going to give it to him halloween night but it wasn't the right time. Funny how being in a hospital is the right time. I took the ring out and it has both of our names engraved on the inside, am I moving too fast? Maybe, but I know in our hearts we are forever. "Oh my god...Andrew..." "Before you say anything, it's not what you think. I mean it's practice for the real thing, but this ring is a promise. A promise that I'm yours and only yours, that I will try to be everything you want me to be." "Drew. I don't know what to say. I mean it's not the most romantic place to give this to me, but I guess it'll do." I was so happy that his humor was back. I stayed at the hospital for a few hours, Bryan even helped me with my homework. We talked and talked, the nurse came by to check his stats and gave us a smile. We were holding hands while watching t.v. I asked the staff if I could spend the night with him and they said that it was ok. Those hours that I missed with him, I'm trying to make up. I can't think what my life would be like if I haven't had met him. I do thank Mark for picking on him, as fucked up as that sounds it's true. I never really noticed him, I knew of him but he was a mere blip on my radar. "Drew? What are you thinking about?" "You. If it wasn't for Mark, we wouldn't be where we are right now." "True. I'm glad that we've found each other. Thank you for the ring, I feel horrible that I don't have anything for you." "Don't worry about it babe, the fact that you're alive is more than enough for me." "I know...wait! I do have something for you!" "What is it?" He opened his mouth and I heard the most angelic voice ever. He sang to me again, this time it was 'I Surrender' by Celine Dion. "There's so much life I've left to live And this fire's burning still When I watch you look at me I think I could find the will To stand for every dream And forsake the solid ground And give up this fear within Of what would happen if they ever knew I'm in love with you 'Cause I'd surrender everything To feel the chance to live again I reach to you I know you can feel it too We'd make it through A thousand dreams I still believe I'd make you give them all to me I'd hold you in my arms and never let go I surrender." With that I held him close to me and kissed him on the forehead. What I have with him is very special and I've never felt this way about anyone before. I know now that this is something I can't fuck up. He's my Bryan and I'm his Drew-bear. The same nurse came in and was crying because she heard him sing, Bryan blushed and told her that that's how he felt about me. She cried some more and I kindly asked her if there was anything that we could do. Nurse Katelyn told us that Bryan will be discharged tomorrow and that he gets to go home. We looked at each other and smiled, I told him that I'll bring some of my things from home so I can look after him till he gets better. He agreed and the tough part was to see if my parents would let me. I called my father and told him the story and surprisingly he agreed, he told me that because I'm taking care of him and he knows that he needs my help that I can 'live' with him till he gets better. I thanked him profusely and told him that I was going to swing by the house to get some things. I told Bryan and told me that he doesn't need a babysitter at the hospital and that I could go home and get my rest because I was going to be with him and pampering his 'sweet ass' as he put it. I agreed and kissed him again on the forehead, telling him good night and that I'd see him tomorrow. Alright readers! That was chapter 3! I am so sorry that it took me this long to bust this out.
