"hey, babe!" brendon chirped happily from his position on the couch when dallon came in his apartment. he turned to face his boyfriend and smiled at him. "guess what? i have news for you," he said excitedly.

dallon smiled a small smile. "i have news for you too, b." he sat next to him and brendon smiled even wider. "let's say it at the same time, then," dallon nodded and took a deep breath. a nervous one.

"im finally s-"

"i cheated on-"

"you..."

"sober...you what?" brendon's face fell. dallon's heart sank. "that's awesome, brendon. im really proud of you," he smiled sadly as he watched tears form in the mentioned's eyes.

dallon hated to see brendon cry no matter what it was. he hated brendon being upset. he absolutely hated that when he was about to cry, he'd poke out his lower lip a little and then form a frown that eventually melted through his tears. he hated seeing that perfect face contort in pain when he cried, and then he'd cover his face or mouth with his hands to try to cover it up.

and he especially hated when brendon let a few tears slip down his soft skin without any emotion showing in his face at that moment.

that scared dallon.

"you cheated on me." he said this shortly and dallon could tell he was in a state of anger and sadness all at once. "who?" dallon didn't answer. "if you're going to cheat on me, i at least should know who it was, dallon."

"ryan."

"ryan?"

"yes."

brendon groaned and got up. he began to pace. "of course, brendon. you devote a good chunk of your time to a person you love and trust with your heart for him to only tear it in half. does he care about you? did he lie when he said "i love you" back? and to make things worse, he cheated on you with your ex," he thought aloud. he turned to dallon with hot tears running down his cheeks. "do you know how i feel about ryan?" dallon nodded.

"then why the hell would you do that? do you understand that he cheated on me too? does everyone hate me?" his voice raised in frustration.

"i don't hate you, i just made a stupid mistake."

"you say it like it was something small."

"it's the only time it's happened. Ive never cheated before this. i panicked when i realized what i did."

dallon stood up and walked over to brendon who backed away from him.

"do you expect me to get over it right away so we can make up and be okay forever now? do you think i can forgive that easily? ive been cheated on multiple times now! i can't just get over this shit!"

"i was drunk, brendon."

"like that makes it okay."

"it didn't mean a thing."

"and to think, i was going to ask you to move in with me and ive been daydreaming about being with you for the rest of my life," he was beginning to cry again.

"Please don't cry. I hate seeing you upset."

"well, if you don't like seeing me upset, why did you cheat on me?"

"i don't know. i wasn't in the right state of mind and it happened and i felt terribly guilty afterward," he went on with guilt dripping from his voice.

"fucking...you know what? i don't even care. i don't care that Ive been cheated on yet again by someone i thought i loved. how foolish of me," his tears were coming out quicker now. "im clearly an idiot for thinking i loved you. ryan? really?"

"brendon, I'm really sorry.."

"no "im sorry, baby. we can start over!" can fix this. i cannot believe you. i thought you were better. i though you were different," his voice cracked when he said the next thing. "do you even care?" dallon pulled him into him, letting their lips collide. brendon broke down then. he kissed back, but it was a strangely wet kiss because of his sobbing.

there the broken couple stood, kissing each other, and one sobbing into the other's mouth in an uncomfortable sort of way. yet, somehow, the spark when they first kissed was there again. brendon finally pulled away and buried his face in dallon's chest. his sobs didn't stop.

"you're such an ass-asshole, you know?" he said once he calmed down a bit, hiccupping in the middle of his sentence. dallon lifted his chin with his fingertips so he could see the boy he'd just broke. "i know. i really do. i am an asshole and i apologize for that," he sighed, sadness in his eyes.

brendon's own sadness contorted his face in way that he looked like he was about to cry again, but he stopped himself. he pulled himself away from dallon and wiped at his wet face.

"do me a favor, hon, and don't let me kiss you, cuddle you, hug you, or have sex with you until i trust you again?" he cooed to the other.

"you're not breaking up with me?"

Brendon laughed dryly. "of course I am. im giving you a second chance, dipshit," he ran his fingers through his hair, turning away from him. "starting tomorrow." dallon nodded in understanding.

"talk to you tomorrow. don't think about talking to me tonight. don't you dare," he turned back around. dallon nodded again, walking out of the apartment.

brendon sighed and sat on the couch, laying down instantly and groaning. "i need waffle therapy..."
