Alone: Chapter 4
Alone Chapter 4: Birthday surprises Well, I can honestly say I didn't know how I got Payton to like me like that. It's almost confusing, how does he like me being a human? I guess some questions aren't meant to be answered. All I can say to myself is savor the moments while they last and prepare for any harsh break ups. At least i'm still not as depressed as I was before we started dating. Now that I think about it, is he dating me because i'm depressed... or does he really love me? Asking him would be rude so I won't ever brong that up until we break up. I honestly hate to think he only loves me because of my depression. "Steven! Wake up!" Crystal woke me. "What?" I groaned. "We have to pick up Sarah from her summer camp." Crystal informed me. "Oh, ok, Payton do you want to come?" I asked him. "Sure," he replied with a smile. For some reason he always smiled. We got into the car and headed off for the camp. My bluetooth was still hooked up to my phone and it played some my favorite human bands. "Hm, I never heard this band before." Crystal pointed out. "Yeah." Payton agreed. "Well it's songs from the human dimention," I said. I only told my mom and Crystal about me coming from the human dimention. They believed me. "Human dimention, that's not real it's a myth." He said. "Are you sure?" I asked. "Yeah." he persisted. "Then where did I come from?" I asked. For a minute he was confused. "So it's real?" He asked. "Yup." I agreed. "But you must not tell anyone, one they won't believe you , will probly freak out." "Ok," Payton complied. Only a few more minutes till we get there. We got there and Sarah loaded her backpack into the backseat. "Wow Steven, you finally got enough money to buy a better car?" Sarah questioned. "No, I made it myself." I excitedly told her. "Oh, nice!" she complimented. "Who's this?" Sarah asked. "Oh, that's Payton, my best friend and Stevens boyfriend." Crystal explained to Sarah. "Hi, Payton." Sarah greeted. "Hi!" Payton greeted back. We got home and we ate lunch at the dinner table. "The only meal I actually eat every day." I thought to myself. We finished and everyone went there own way. Me and Payton went to my room. "Hey, Payton." I said. "Yeah?" he asked. "I um... told myself I wasn't going to ask you this but, do you really love me or is it only because of my depression?" I sadly asked. He sat next to me on the bed and held me in his arms. "I'd never love you to use you or give you false hope." He told me. "I love you for being you, you were kind to me and you are the cutest guy in the world to
me, I'd never let you go. Him holding and telling me that made me believe every word he spoke. I felt ashamed of asking him that and he noticed that. "It's alright to ask me that, you just wanted to know." he comforted me. I smiled in his arms and closed my eyes. "You know when we first kissed that night, the whole world felt like it stopped spinning." I told him. He laughed. "It must have really shocked you, because you stood there for a whole minute." he smiled. We both let out a sigh and kissed again. It felt good to be loved by some one and give the same love back. It was December and my sister just got home from school. "Quick, we need to set up for Steven's party!" our mom yelled. They set up cake and ballons. An hour after they did that I came home. I walked through the door and everyone except my brother was sitting on the couch. "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!" they all yelled. "Oh, thanks but you guys didn't have to." I told them. I blew the candles out and we ate some cake. Later that night Payton called me up stairs. He sat on our bed and I layed my head on his lap. "Do you remember the time we got together?" he asked. "Yeah, June 25." I told him. We just sat there and smiled. "Come here and follow me." he told me. "What is it?" I asked. "I want to take you out." he told me with a smile. "Come on, you took me out when we first got together." I told him. "Really, Steven, that was seven months ago." he smiled. We went to a different restraunt. It was called The Sunset's Dinner. "Wow." I gasphed in amazement. "This place is better is better than Candlelit." "I know and it's less expensive." he told me. We were seated and the waiter took down our orders. As usual I got wine with a nice steak meal and he got the same meal but with a water. "Thank you, you do some much for me, hell, you did more for me in seven months than my mom and sisters did for me in nine years." I said to him. He smiled. "Well, that's what I do, I love you." He told me. We sat there and finished our meal. It was now 11:00pm. We headed home in my car. We got home and he went up stairs and I stayed downstairs. "Steven, I have another present for you!" he said excitedly from the stairs. "Ok, hold on please." I said to him. I went upstairs and opended the door?" What's the gift I asked as I walked through the door. "Me." Payton said undressed on my bed. My face turned red with in a second. Oh is all I had to say...
