EMAIL me if you have anything u wanna say! soul_catcher2000@yahoo.co.uk Chapter one Funny, how u always seem to be obsessed with one person at any one time in life and that person means so much to u that some days u can't bear the thought of them not being there. He was always there. Saturday morning I woke up, today I thought is gonna be a great day. I felt good for the first time in ages. I had no idea why, but I wasn't gonna complain. I bounced through the entire morning process of waking up, coming back to life and coming back to reality. I always woke up and fantasised about Ryan, I'd dream he was there smiling at me, he had the most beautiful smile, so adorable. He'd put his arms around my waist as he pulled me to him, he always seemed too good for me. I wanted him, lord knows I did, but I felt so worthless comparing myself to him. Truth was I was jealous of him, his good looks, his adorable personality, his warmth, I could go on for ages about how great he was. But I knew I loved him and also I was attracted to him, but I never thought that I'd have a chance with him. He had everything, money, friends, girls, popularity everything. But he always made me feel special. I laughed too myself, most guys my age would probably fantasise about having sex with a girl, most gay guys my age would probably fantasise about having sex with a guy, I fantasised about having a guy hug and kiss me! Ryan, was my best friend, he always told me that I was his best friend and it made me feel good. Knowing that I was his, and he was mine. maybe just as best friends, but still it was special. Today the only thing I had planned was revision, I had exams coming up soon and I wanted to get as much work done as possible to make up for my laziness in class. The only thing I had to look forward to was a visit from Ryan. We were gonna go watch a movie together and I couldn't wait. The day dragged on and passed, until it came to 3:00. There was a knock at the door and I rushed to open it, Ryan stood there with his deep blue eyes, his blonde golden-like hair, and of course the adorable smile, he had a little dimple in his chin when he smiled it was so goddamn cute. "Hey Oz, u just gonna stand there like a dork? The movie starts in like 5 minutes! Lets move." "Hi. Ok, let's go." I said. We said goodbye to my mum and left, the cinema was about 5 minutes away from my house so we walked. Whilst we were walking I had to keep reminding myself not to reach out for his hand, I always wanted to hold his hand, I felt so weird. Watching the movie, I couldn't help but stare at Ryan, wearing a denim jacket, white T-shirt and denim jeans. his blonde hair contrasted with his white top, and his eyes reflected the light off the movie screen. He looked so god-like. He had his adorable smile on and he turned me on so much.Then he turned and looked at me. His smile faded for a second and he looked at me peculiarly. "Hmm. u ok doofus?" "What? Me? Yeah, yeah I'm ok. hehe" I laughed nervously. Ryan laughed, punched me in the shoulder. "Been a year and You're still just as weird!" he joked, putting his around me. That surprised me a little, I felt so special there in the cinema, watching a movie with one of the most beautiful guys in the whole world and he had his arm around me. I thought about how much I had missed him the past year, he'd gone too see his aunt in the states and stayed with her for a year. Seemed like a lot longer than that, we had talked almost every day on the phone and I always tried to cheer him up. His aunt was ill, and she was old. She'd been slowly dehydrating and Ryan was afraid she was gonna die soon. He'd gone into depression, she meant that much to him. I wondered if he was still taking medication, it wasn't anything strong, in fact it was the same medicine I had taken during exam time, mild anti depressants. I couldn't help but stare at his angelic face and wonder if he was better now. I hoped he was but if he wasn't I would look after him and get him through the hard times just like he does for me. The movie was over before I even realised it had begun, and Ryan got up and blinked, he slowly took my hand and walked out, with me in tow. I couldn't believe he was holding my hand in public! I mean he had no idea I was gay so he probably felt secure, but it was then I decided that I was gonna tell him. We got pizza and hung out with some old friends, before deciding to get home. I asked him to stay over and he agreed. He said he just wanted to get some stuff from home. We both went our ways and I waited for him at home. Sitting at home, I couldn't stop thinking that I should tell him, that he deserved to know, but I was scared. I didn't want him to think that I was a loser that's what gays were losers. Yeah I know I'm gay but I have trouble accepting it, but can you blame me? After reading and hearing about all the stuff that happened to other gays, I was just a little scared of being gay. But its not like I had a choice, so I live with it and try to be happy. Well, it was almost 19:00 and Ryan still hadn't got here so I decided to call for pizza. About 20 minutes later a knock came at the door, I assumed it'd be the pizza guy, but it was Ryan. He was covered in mud and dirt; he looked up at me and smiled. I couldn't help but laugh. "Been enjoying yourself?" I asked, laughing at him. He smiled and began explaining how he tried to help push some guy's car out of a small ditch and there was lots of mud, and well, he got dirty. He pulled off his shirt and I tried not to stare, but I couldn't help it, he's so beautiful. He wasn't muscular but his body was firm and well defined, and his skin had a perfectly tanned, silky soft texture, I used to jerk off thinking about it all the time and I knew every detail of it. Man did I need help! He trudged up the stairs and headed to the shower. My mind instantly went back to being troubled. I tried to push the thought out of my mind, but I was weird like that. I had decided on telling Ryan without even thinking about it, and now that I had thought about I was scared but that didn't mean I was gonna go back on my decision. This was something I had to do, and I realised that right there. An hour later Ryan came up to my bedroom, I was lying on my bed thinking about how to tell him. He smiled at me with that goddamn cute smile. His blonde hair was damp and he had changed into his nightclothes. But I was distracted with my thoughts, I was ready to chicken out but I couldn't. I kept contemplating it in my head. Then Ryan switched the TV on and asked me if there was something wrong. "You ok? You've been phasing out a lot recently," he said looking concerned. I wanted to kiss him, but pushed that thought right out of my head. "Um. Yeah. Ryan I wanted to tell you something, would you come sit here a minute?" I asked looking a little troubled. I guess he noticed that, he switched the TV off and came and sat down slowly next to me. I was sure he gave me a look that said: "Weirdo! This guy really has issues" But I told myself I was being paranoid. "Yeah? What's up oz?" he asked trying not to look scared I think. I took a deep breath. "Umm. Ryan, I'm umm. I mean I think I am. I'm uh." I stammered and he looked at me weirdly, like I was a freak or something. "You're a what? What is it? Are you messing me around?" He asked looking half amused and half-concerned. "No Ryan I'm serious," I said. A look of realisation came across his face, he begun to smile then he said "You think that you're in love with my cousin right? That's what it is, isn't it? Billy told me that u said you were in love with her! You want me to hook you up with her?" he laughed out loud. "Why didn't u just say so? You don't have to be afraid of that" he laughed and punched me in the shoulder. "Ryan, I'm gay."
