Jack POV: Zach and I continued to toss ideas and when Rian came out of the shower he joined us. Rian and Zach were all for simply beating Blake up but inside I felt hesitant. I shouldn't but I feel bad for him. I know what he did to Alex but as stupid as it sounds I couldn't help but wonder when will the violence end. So Blake beat Alex, Zach'll beat Blake, Blake'lll might still beat up Alex and who won from all of this? No one. Isn't there another way? A way Alex would stay whole, Blake wouldn't go to a hospital, and everyone could just be happy. It sounds so mushy but it's the honest truth. "Jack you with us?" Rian asked. "What? Oh yeah." I answered my mind still in cyberspace. "So here's what we do. On Sunday after school I'll meet you by your school find Blake and then.." "Then we can get him!" Rian interrupted Zach. That weird thing was that it felt wrong. And I couldn't help but feel slightly guilty. There was something I didn't tell the other guys. I tried to forget about it but now the memories came rushing in. That's it. I can't let this happen. I hate Blake with my entire soul and I don't want him to hurt Alex but this is just wrong. And Blake doesn't deserve it. And I couldn't help but feel that the Blake I knew in our first month, the sweet sensitive confused boy, was still somewhere there before he was swallowed by the manipulative cheating idiotic jerk. That's when I realized I needed to talk to Blake. Now. "I need to go." I muttered as I grabbed my jacket and started to run toward Blake's house ignoring Zach and Rians looks and questions. The house looked exactly like I remembered towering and intimidating. Blake was rich. I knocked on the door before I could lose all my courage and remember this is basically suicide. Blake's father who always loved me, though he didn't know I was his sons boyfriend opened the door and exclaimed "Jack! Long time no see! You never seem to be around whenever we come over. Have you grown taller?" I made a point of leaving the house whenever Blake and his family came over. It sucked he was best friends with my dad. It had been almost a year since I saw him last. "Yeah with school and everything its like Im barely at home. Is Blake home?" "Yes he's in his room. Come on in." I practically raced to Blake's room, or should I say rooms. He has a game room, tv room, bedroom, and private bathroom. I didn't know what I was going to say. I just burst into his tv room guessing that's where he'd be as he's used to be there 24/7, playing video games. And there he was. "Jack? What the fuck are you doing here?" he asked after he jumped slightly at my entrance. "Look Blake I don't know why you want hurt me or Alex. What did we ever do to you? What did I do? Why weren't you happy? I loved you with all my heart and you broke it. I have trust issues because of you. Why did you hurt Alex? What did he ever do to you? He made me happy so you break his ribs? I wanted to help you! I know you were addicted and I knew you needed help. You didn't need to hurt me in every way possible. Tell the truth. You didn't kiss that bitch because you wanted to. You did it to hurt me. You flirted with everything just to drive me away. You threatened me to tell my parents about me being gay because you're a coward. You were scared I'd tell your parent about you know what. But I didn't. And I never would have. I just wanted you to love me. So i could help you. I wanted and still after everything you've done to me still want the best for you." I came here to try to get Blake not to hurt Alex and find a peaceful solution but the minute I opened my mouth I told Blake everything about our relationship. How much I cared for him. I can only define Blake's face as shocked. He was speechless for a few seconds but then he opened his mouth and I prepared my self for the verbal blow. "Aww so you just wanted to help me. Right. I never loved you. Everything it was a lie. You were so pathetic. When you started to cry when i kissed that chick I honestly wanted to laugh at your lameness. So yeah you didn't tell my parents. You deserve a award. It's not my fault you're so stupid to think I needed your help. I was perfectly fine without you." The words hurt but I knew the truth. I needed to hear him admit it. "Blake admit it! I know you loved me. I know you needed help. Maybe you still need it." As I said this I darted quickly to his desk and opened the hidden drawer. A bag with white telltale powder stared at me. "Or maybe you do need help." Blake stared at me and I saw a glint of fear and shame in those blue eyes of his, so different than alexs cinnamon brown eyes. "So I still haven't stopped. Big fucking deal. You still cut don't you?" For the first time in almost a year I rolled up the sleeves of my shirt with pride. No scabs. Only scars. Blake looked at my wrists and said "So what? I can stop whenever I want. It's not an addiction." "Blake face the truth! You're addicted to cocaine. But you can stop. You can find someone who can help you." For a second I saw a glint of the old Blake as he answered "You know what? You're right. He took the bag and went to the tv room me following him, and tossed it into the fireplace. "Blake I'm so proud of you." I said. "Look Jack. I'm sorry. I did love you. A lot. I'm sorry for everything. The threats. The cutting. The cheating. I couldn't have anyone know about my-my a-addiction. When you discovered it, it drove me crazy. So I tried to get you to leave me. So you'd stop trying to help me.I just needed to be alone. Or so I thought. And i'm sorry for what I did to Alex. It's just. You seemed so happy with him and it drove me insane. I know we'll never be the same and you're happy with Alex but I'm hoping we can try to be friends." I smiled widely as I realized the old Blake was back. "I'd love that. I need to go now. I sort of ran away from Rian and Zach." We smiled at each other as i thought about how proud Alex would be. I managed to find a peaceful solution. It just showed me how much Alex changed me. Three months ago I would have been glad to beat up Blake. Now I knew how wrong it would have been. I ran to Rians house to find Alex, Rian, and Zach looking upset and worried, Alex especially. The first thing I did was run to Alex and kiss him as I muttered I love you so fucking much. He looked surprised but returned the kiss. I told everyone what happened. They swore not to tell about the drugs. Alex was upset about the violent revenge thing but when he heard thwart happened with Blake he told me how proud he was. And I was so happy. Zack actually said Blake sounds really nice but lost and that he'd want to meet him. Alex was so cute as he said "You know if you guys would be together your names combined would be Black!How cool is that?" Zack turned red as Rian laughed and I realized again how lucky I am to have such epic friends.
