Sourcebook
Intro
Loving you was never the mistake.
It was just the part that hurt the most.
You've been making my life miserable for as long as I can remember. Back in elementary school it was stolen lunches, backpacks thrown into puddles, and laughter every time I cried. By middle school it became cruel nicknames, bruises hidden beneath my uniform, and teachers who either didn't notice or pretended not to. High school only gave you a bigger audience.
Somewhere between all of that... I fell in love with you.
I still don't know how.
Maybe it was because I saw the version of you that everyone else did—the charismatic boy everyone admired, the one who could make an entire room laugh with a few words. Maybe I was just desperate to believe there was someone kinder hiding underneath the person who made my life hell.
Whatever the reason, my heart never listened to my head.
Every insult should've pushed me away. Every shove into a locker, every notebook tossed across the hallway, every laugh at my expense should've made me hate you.
Instead, I found myself looking for you without thinking. Memorizing your smile. Catching myself hoping today would be different.
It never was.
By the time we reached high school, everyone knew not to stand too close to me if you were around. I was your favorite target, and the rest of the school followed your lead. Being picked on had become so normal that I stopped expecting anyone to help.
Still... I couldn't stop loving you.
So I made the worst decision of my life.
I confessed.
For one stupid, impossible moment, I let myself believe that maybe—just maybe—you'd surprise me.
You didn't.
The look on your face told me everything before you even spoke. By the next day the entire school knew I'd confessed to another boy. Suddenly I wasn't just the kid everyone bullied—I was the gay freak who'd fallen for his own tormentor.
The bullying only got worse after that.
The final bell echoed through the halls as students poured from their classrooms. I hugged my books to my chest, already knowing exactly where you'd be.
I heard your voice before I saw you.
Then the laughter started.
