WHEN I'M WITH YOU

WHEN I'M WITH YOU: PART 5

I strolled into his room where he was putting on a jumper lazily and turning on his ps3. "Hi Jake" I muttered. He turned round and gawped at me.
"The fuck happened to your face Eddie?" he asked sounding concerned.
"Just these boys who go to my school, it doesn't matter it's over now."
"You sure?"
"Yeah."
"They give you any trouble you just tell me okay" he said getting all serious and shit.
"Yeah whatever Jake" I said, raising my eyebrows and walking out his room.

I threw on some clothes and then headed for the bus stop. I wasn't going to tell my mum or Jake where I was going because, well I didn't want too. Haha. I don't feel like my mum deserves to see him. Even if i'm completely wrong and she's not cheating on my dad she's still acting like a slob around the house. No wonder I hate being there. Theres one reason why I hate bus' with a passion. That's old people. Some are quite nice, most of us have a sweet old gran who we love so much. But I mean the perverted ones, like the guy who came and sat next to me. He was all wrinkled, with yellow teeth, grey hair (I could see his scalp through it) and was wearing a old tracksuit which smelt like sweat.

"Hello there young man" he leaned really close to me.
"Hi" I replied bluntly, looking around the bus for help, but just my luck, there was none, no one was facing our way.
"Where are you going, or coming from?" he asked.
"I'm going to visit my dad, not that it's any of your bussiness" I snapped. The creepy chuckled.
"Nice weekend?" he carried on, I didn't speak that time, just nodded.
"What did you do?" the old guy asked, god this guy seriously couldn't a hint, it was obvious I didn't want to talk to him!
"Spent time with my boyfriend" I firmly stated, hoping that mentioning Kai would scare him off.
"Ah! What's up with you, your looking pretty roughed up" he nodded towards my bruised face.
"Yeah, it was these boys" I said, glaring at him.
"Yeah, refused to suck their dicks or something? Or did you suck their dicks and they gave you a rough time? Bet you love sucking dick don't you pretty ?" he sneered, placing his hand on my thigh and started rubbing my leg.
"Get off!" I yelped and shook him off, I got up to walk to the front of the bus as there were more people there.

The old guy grabbed my wrist causing me to wince in pain, "Your too stunning for your own good" he snarled before pushing me away. What the fuck. I swear I'm surrounded by complete creeps. I saw the tall white building and pressed the button letting the driver know to stop at the nearest bus shelter. As the bus pulled away and I went to cross the road the old man looked at the window and licked his lips at me. Whatever, freak. I treaded lightly into the office where the woman smiled at me, I was a regular early monday morning visitor. "Hi Eddie, let me just contact Annie" she said, nodding me to take a seat. Annie was dad's nurse and was always here when I was, we had grown close while dad had been ill. About five minutes later she arrived.

I didn't really need to be directed to where dad was, I knew my way well enough. Seeing him lying there broke my heart over and over again. Wires sticking out of him connected to a machine, like he was an i-pod on charge or something. "Dad" I whispered, taking hold of his hand. I turned round and smiled through tears at Annie who nodded and left me alone with him. He was warming up and I had a feeling it wouldn't be long until he woke up. But this was probally false hope. My dad's hands reminded me of Kai's, due to the fact they were so big but gentle. "I hope you wake up soon dad, we really need you back home, I need you, I have so much to tell you, I have someone I really really want you to meet, I know you'll love him, because I love him dad!" I sobbed into his arm. I tried to pick up his scent, he used to smell like wood (he made furniture) and his aftershave. But now he smelt like disinfection spray and other medicines. I missed him so much...

"Hey you left pretty early" Kai said when I went to his house later that evening. I looked up at him, he was so gorgeous, standing there in just his underwear. "How you feeling?" he asked, lifting me up and carrying me up the stairs.
"Still a little sore" I said calmly. I ran over and leaped on his bed causing Kai to chuckle. As I settled down a load rumble came from my stomach, it shocked both me and Kai.
"Wow someones hungry, lets go back downstairs and get a bite to eat" he chuckled again.
"No!" I said maybe a bit too loudly, causing Kai to look at me weird, "I'm not hungry honest, I ate before I came here" I lied, and started pulling him on top of me.
