One look was all it took.

Alan's P.O.V.

I ended up going home earlier than expected because Austin's dad had important people going to the house. I showed up to the house & Thank god....my step dad was no where in sight. I went to Aaron's room because I was bored.

"Hmm, you're here earlier than usual." Aaron spoke, sitting up from his bed.

"Uh yea...I'm bored. Hey Tino!" I spoke, waving to Tino, who was laying down on the floor.

"Hey, ginger!" He yelled back. I rolled my eyes & sat down next to Aaron.

"What's wrong? Did you two break up or something?" Aaron asked, looking serious.

"No, why?"

"Because you don't usually come home until , well....the next day or 10 if we're lucky." Aaron chuckled."Our dad seems like he misses you more than any of us. Kidding." Aaron joked. But I knew he wasn't kidding. Aaron doesn't even know yet....I'm not so sure if I should tell him...

"Aaron...I kinda have to talk to you later..." I spoke.

"Yea alright. So wanna go skate?" Aaron asked both, me & Tino. We nodded & made our way out.

We had been at the skate park for an hour now. I was left alone with Tino while Aaron went to go get us some drinks from the 7-11 across the street. I was pretty nervous to tell Aaron later about his dad...you know...doing things to me...so I decided to turn to Tino & see if he knew what to do. He's like a brother anyway.

"Hey, Tino?.." I asked, almost too scared to speak.

"Yea?" Tino looked at me with a smile.

"C-can I tell you something?...it's really personal & I've been hiding it for a while.." I spoke.

"Yea, yea. What is it?" Tino asked, looking serious.

"I...you can't tell Aaron. Promise me you won't tell a soul. Not until I'm ready..." Tino had a now, worried look on his face & than put his arm on my shoulder.

"Hey, you can tell me anything. I swear I won't say a word."

"You might not believe me & think i'm making it up or that it's a joke, but I swear it's not! I mean, why would I joke about something so serious?! Just, just promise you'll try to understand without freaking out....& I swear on my life I'm being honest. Ju-"

"Alan! Calm down, tell me, If it's this serious...I know you would never lie about anything serious..now trust me. What is it?" Tino asked. I took a deep breath & swallowed before finally speaking up.

"It's about my step-dad....please don't say anything to anyone! He'd k-kill me..." I spoke, now crying from the fear. Tino hugged me tightly & then pulled away to listen.

"This has been going on for a few years now...ever since I came out...he likes to come into my room at night &...he just..he touches me & he's raped me & beat me whenever I try to get away...I'm just so scared...and I want to tell Aaron but...he wouldn't believe me..." I was sobbing now. Tino looked pissed, upset, & concerned all at once. At first I thought he'd get up & punch something from how angry he looked but then he just looked at me, a few tears filled his eyes & then he hugged me for the longest.

"I'll fucking kill him...he can't do that to you, Alan..." Tino whispered. He pulled away & I wiped my tears. I saw Aaron coming back & tried my best to look like I wasn't crying.

"Alright, I got you a watermelon Arizona, Alan get's a blue Gatorade, & I got myself a Pepsi." Aaron spoke, handing us our stuff.

"Hey, Alan are you okay?" Aaron asked. He noticed. Dammit.

"Yea...I'm fine...just allergies, I guess." I responded, taking a sip of my Gatorade. We continued skating after our little rest & then headed home for the day. Tino was sleeping over but he didn't want me to sleep in my room alone. So when we were home, he wouldn't leave me alone.

"Hey, Aaron, how about your little brother sleeps in your room with us tonight?" Tino asked. "He'd be fun. He's my friend too, ya know."

"Tino, but you know what we do in here...." Aaron whispered to Tino. I still heard him. What do they do?

"He won't mind. He's a guy too, so..."

"Yea, but he's gay." They continued as if I wasn't even in the room.

"Okay, fine. Alan, you can sleep in here but you can't be grossed out when we start watching porn." Aaron spoke. He tossed me a pillow & pointed to a spot on the floor. I didn't feel left out though. We were all sleeping on the floor & I was just happy to not have to sleep alone tonight...god only knows what happens when I'm alone at night.
