*{ Joey's POV }*

I was sitting in park bench with my knees up to my chest while the cool air was blowing in my face. It was raining really hard, but I didn't care. I just wanted to lay in this bench and die.

You might be wondering what in the hell I'm talking about.

Well here's my story. I came out to my parents as gay and they just yelled at me telling me being gay is "wrong" and kicked me out. Worst part is that today's my birthday. I'm officially 18 years old.

After they kicked me out I wandered around L.A. and found this little park and sat on this bench. I couldn't help, but to cry. Imagine the people that took care of you your whole life, hate you because of something you are.

I closed my eyes for a couple minutes, but then I felt the rain stop. I could hear the rain, but I couldn't feel it. I opened my eyes slowly and saw a man holding an umbrella. He had raven dark hair, kind green eyes, a small stubble, and plump lips.

X: What are you doing out here so late at night? You could catch a cold.

Joey: I have no where to go sir. My parents kicked me out.

X: No need to call me sir, you could just call me Daniel. Do you mind if I ask why you were kicked out?

Joey: My parents kicked me out after I came out to them on my birthday. Which is today...

Daniel: Oh that's a shame. Happy birthday anyways. It's getting pretty late we should get going.

Joey: Well thanks for the talk and stopping by.

Daniel: Didn't you hear me? I said WE should get going.

Joey: Go where?

Daniel: To my apartment silly. I can't just leave you out here in the rain.

Joey: But you just met me. How can you trust me?

Daniel: You don't look like a bad kid to me. So I trust you.

Joey: Oh O-ok.

I stood up from the bench and we both started walking to his apartment. I can't believe he's doing this for me. I just met him and he trusts me. I guess they're really are good people in this world.

****

After minutes of walking in silence, we made it to his apartment. He got his key and unlocked the door and let me in.

Joey: Nice place.

Daniel: Thanks. Anyways, why don't you go take a bath and I'll get you some pajamas?

Joey: Why are you being so nice to me?

Daniel: Because I know what it feels like to be kicked out of your parents house for being gay.

Joey: Oh... now I understand.

He lead me to the bathroom and started a bubble bath for me. I took off my clothes and hopped into the bathtub, while he went to go get some pajamas. He soon came back and put the clothes on the toilet seat.

Daniel: Want me to wash your hair?

I nodded shyly. He got some soap and started washing my hair and rinsed it out when he finished. He got out of the bathroom and I changed into the pajamas he gave me. The shirt was a little too big, but I didn't mind. I walked out of the shower and made my way to the living room to see Daniel sitting on the couch.

He saw me and patted the seat next to him. I slowly made my way next to him and sat down. He put on Netflix and gave me a blanket.

Daniel: How about you pick something to watch and I'll make us some dinner?

Joey: Su-sure.

He handed me the remote and I picked out Scream Queens. I started waiting for Daniel until I saw a flash of light in the window.

Oh god.

Don't tell me it's what I think it is...

Then out of nowhere I heard a loud booming sound followed by a lighting strike causing me to jump.

I put my hands over my ears and tried to block out the sound, but it just got louder by the second. I curled up into a ball and started sobbing uncontrollably, until Daniel came running in.

Daniel: Joey whats wrong?!

I was about respond, but the thunder interrupted me causing me to jump and cry harder. K saw Daniel run into, but he quickly came with something behind his hands.

Earmuffs.

He put the earmuffs in my ears and pulled me to his chest and started rubbing my back while telling me everything was going to be ok. Pretty soon I calmed down, but I didn't move one bit. I felt safe in Daniels arms so I didn't bother to move, I wanted to enjoy this moment while it lasted.

I soon lifted my head and stared into his beautiful green eyes. I started leaning in and so did he. My lips were on his and we shared a kiss full of passion and love. To say I felt sparks was an understatement, it was much more than that.

We both pulled apart and put our foreheads against each other.

Daniel than leaned in and gave me another kiss with even more passion. I started kissing back and wrapped my legs around his waist. He soon picked me up and led me to his bedroom not once breaking our kiss.

We got to his room and he broke apart from the kiss to set me gently on the bed. He then got to my side and put his hand around my waist and pulled me closer to him. I snuggled into his warm chest, while he kissed my temple and wrapped our legs together.

Daniel: Joey?

Joey: Yeah?

Daniel: I know it might be awkward saying this, considering we just met and all, but I think I'm starting to like you.

Joey: I-I like you too.

We stayed like that for a few moments just enjoying each others company cuddling into each others bodies. Daniel soon broke the silence.

Daniel: Joey?

Joey: Yeah Daniel?

Daniel: I just wanted to say... Welcome to your new home.
