"Christmas break"
It had been about a week and a half since the whole 'scandal' was released, Simon found himself check his phone trying to ignore his texts from everyone, the names he read made him throw his phone against the wall and just cry for hours. Finally after a couple of days he got out of bed and took a shower.
After about 10 minutes he finished and got dressed, he decided to come out of his room today was Christmas Eve then tomorrow was Christmas. Simon really didn't want to celebrate but he hadn't seen his mom or sister in 4 days, He at least owed them that even though he was going through hell.
His mom got up and went over to hug him "I'm so happy to see you out of bed" she says
he nods as he hugged back and breathes "Im sorry I've been ignoring everything and everyone for the last couple of days" he says knowing she went through worse with their dad.
She shakes her head "Please don't apologize, you just went through a breakup I get it they are hard" she says
He looks up at her and smiles "Okay, come on lets go watch some movies like we always do"
Linda nodded "Okay but I want you to eat something first" she told him
"Okay deal" he says calmly and walks to the kitchen and poured himself a bowl of cereal and starting to eat slowly then finished a couple minutes later, he walked over to the sink and washed it putting it onto the rack to dry.
His mom and Sara put on one of Simons favourites hopefully to make him feel better, Sara still hadn't figured out how to tell him that she knew who fired the video and that she slept with the guy who ruined his life and relationship.
Simon walks out he was tired and just wanted to lay down so he did, his mom pulled a blanket over then him they played the movie as he fell asleep in the first 5 minutes, he hadn't slept in the past 4 days and finally fell asleep without any thoughts of Wilhelm in his head.
a few hours went by and their mom and Sara watched movies while Simon slept, He finally woke up after about 3 almost 4 hours of being out and laid there watching the current movie that was on.
Linda looked over at him "You okay?" she asks
he nods and looked back at her as some tears fell the pain of Wilhelm being gone and not in his life anymore was finally hitting him
she leaned over hugging him "Its going to be okay I promise" she says "It gets better, but the healing process is different for everyone. It was first serious relationship"
he cried onto her shoulder for a couple of minutes then stopped he saw Sara staring him down "What?" he asks as he wiped the tears that had fallen on the sleeve of his hoodie
"We got letters in the mail today.." she says and handed him his it was from Hillerska
He breathes as he took it and then opened it slowly reading it as he then saw the words 'you will be a resident at Hillerska' and put the letter on the table "Your joking right, we can't afford that Sara"
She looked back and nods "Yes I know but August actually paid for everything, he helped us get two dorms at Hillerska" she says
"August? yeah like he would wanna help us"
Sara rolled her eyes at him "Simon I wouldn't lie to you" when she was literally lying to him at the moment about not knowing about the video when she did
"Okay, fine I believe you, when do we even move in?" he asks her
"We move in next Friday.." she says to him
Simon looks over to his mom "Are you okay with this?" he asks her
She nods "Yes I know you to will be responsible and safe and use protection, well at least you" she says to Simon she joked trying to get him to smile
He formed a smile on his face "I will I'm not thinking about any of that, and I'm not doing any of that" he says
Sara rolled her eyes playfully "Yes mom ill be safe and responsible and I'm not having sex!" she says lying
Simon looks at her "Then what explains the huge box of Condoms in your backpack?" he asks and laughs
"Why are you going through my bag?!" she asks and punches his arm lightly
"I was grabbing ur math textbook, I had forgotten mine" he giggles not caring who it was
Their mom had always taught them to be open about this stuff but glad they were being safe "Okay my little weirdos I'm going to start lunch"
they nod and Sara looks "Im surprised you don't have any" she says
"Well one I do have some, and two me and Wilhelm broke up so I don't need them." he says "Plus he always had them on hand" he smiles
she gaged "Okay conversation over" she says and walks to the kitchen
he giggles and smiles happy for the first time in the last 4 days, he got up walking to the kitchen to help his mom and Sara with lunch.
Mean while over at the castle Wilhelm had been sitting at his window all day just staring into the cold winter day, he heard a knock over at the door and breathes "Who is it?" he asks
"Erik.." he says through the door
He sighs he hated when his brother saw him sad he fixed himself then nods "Come in" he says
Erik opens the door then closed it behind him as Wilhelm continued looking outside as if a Simon would appear any second "My little brothers first heart break" he says and sits down on the other side of the window seat
Wilhelms head lifted and looks over at his brother sitting in front of him "I messed up big time" he says to him "Why does mom keep telling me to do these things?"
he looked back at him "She doesn't want to see you be happy with a boy she wants you to be happy with a.."
"With a girl" he says before he could finish "I can't control that I wanna be with a boy and not a girl.. I wanna be with Simon maybe we won't last forever but maybe one day ill be with a girl" he tells him
He nods "I understand that Wilhelm, but she doesn't I will always be your biggest supporter"
Wilhelm smiled and nods "I know and I love you for that" he says "Do you think he'll forgive me?" he asks
Erik thought for a second "You know its gonna be hard to win him back as a boyfriend you do realize that?"
he breathes "Yes I do" he says and look over at his stuff "Even if I can get my friend back" he says
"I don't think you two were ever friends you rushed right into it" he says referring to the sex tape
"Oh shut up it only happened twice" he says
"You had sex twice?" he asks this was brand new news to him
"Yes twice and that's it I'm done talking about my sex life with you now" he giggles and got up
"Are you two being safe?" he asks as he went to go help him pack his stuff
"Yessss we have a pack of protection okay? please stop acting like a parent"
"Someone has to" he says honestly their parents really didn't teach Wilhelm about anything he needed to know in life besides royalty
"And I thank you for that and if I ever need you for this stuff I will call for help"
"So when did the second time happen?" he giggles teasing him
"Oh shut up already! and it happened the night after we did it the first time"
"you don't waste time" he laughs
he threw a shirt at him "shut up!"
he stopped laughing after a while and helped him finish packing "Why are you packing a week early?" he asks
"I just wanna get it done now so that way in a week when I'm worrying about seeing him again I don't forget anything I need" he says
"You have nothing to worry about brother, you gonna be just fine" he says
"I don't know.. I just wish you could have met him that one weekend but.."
Erik had gotten in a car crash but survived and was hospitalized for a while
"I know.. I'm sorry but hey at least I'm still alive huh?"
He smiles and nods "Yeah" he says "I know theres another parents day sometime before summer
"Ill meet this Simon hopefully you need to make your move but, you need to apologize. Try talking to him slip him a note asking to talk after class or something.." he says and looks over
He nods "Yes I know and I also know he's going to be mad, but ill let you know how it goes"
*1 Week later the night before move in day for residents came around*
Wilhelm was packed up and was about to go shower and he heard a knock at the door "Yes?" he asks as he pulled a shirt back on as the door opened and it was his mother
"We need to talk about your arrival back at Hillerska" she says
Erik popped his head in and looks over at Wilhelm "Just go with it" he mouths over to him and then left
He watched Erik for a second and looks back to his mom and nods "Yeah what about tomorrow?" he asks
She looks "You and Simon should stay away from each other its for the best" she says
He breathes "For the last time we are broken up, trust me it's over between us" he says "Okay?" he asks
"Okay" she says and walks to the door opening it then left as Erik walked back in leaning against the wall
"See how easy that was?" he asks smiling
He nods "She's never believed me that easily" he tells him
"I know which is why I told you just play along with it, try avoiding touching or anything with him in public okay?"
"Okay" he says "Im gonna go shower goodnight"
"Goodnight brother" he says and then walks to his own room
Back at Simons house...........
Simon finished up packing the last of his things, he was nervous for tomorrow but knew he would be okay, he looks up as he heard his mom come in "Hi" he says
she smiled "Hi, I'm gonna miss you two you better come visit" she giggles
"don't worry I'll come visit as much as I can" he says and put his bags near his door
she nods "You sure your gonna be okay at this school with Wilhelm and everything?" she asks
He nods "Yes I will be fine Mom plus this is the happiest Sara's been about something in a long time" he says
"You know your one good little brother" she says and smiles I'm proud of how far you've come" she tells him
"I know" he says and nods "Thank you mom" he says "Im gonna head to bed I'm really tired"
*The next day*
Wilhelm and Erik had woken up early and he said by to his parents, he and Erik got into the car, it was just like old times when they first went to hillerska.
Back at Simons his mom started driving both Sara and Simon there as they finally got there saying their goodbyes to their mom they both went up to their dorms and Simon had trouble finding his.. he finally saw the hall and then looked down it seeing the boy he was avoiding. He quickly walked to his room which was unlocked thankfully he saw someone with Wilhelm assuming it was a bodyguard.
