My name is Randy...Ben is the love of my life. I'll always be his.
Ben sat in Randy's hospital room, the calmest room in the hospital. In the hallway stood security guards. Reporters were waiting to sink their teeth in Randy's story. Rainbow village was packed with reporters parked on every block.
Randys complexion looked pale from the blood loss. His hair was shaved down to a he scalp. Ben cried all night due to the state Randy was in. Randy's twenty fifth birthday was today. Ben planned a birthday celebration for him. Instead he was in the hospital fighting with every breath.
"Ha-pp-y... bir-th-day to Y-ou de-ar Randy....ha-pp-y bir-th-day too You" Ben cried he could barley get through the song. His eyes were overflowing with tears. Today was supposed to be the day that he celebrates Randy. Pictures of the two were scattered around on the hospital walls.
A knock on the hospital door startled Ben out of his on mind. Johnny was in front of Zoe. Ben opened the door, immediately Johnny hugged Ben. Zoe hugged the crying boy soon after. Johnny held a birthday present for Randy. "He wanted to bring it" Zoe said.
"Th-ank you" Ben said. The three of them ate left over pizza from the pizza shop down the road. Ben tried eating the hospital food but starved himself for a day. Zoe brought the pizza one night.
"You can't live on pizza for ever Ben" Zoe said. The room started to smell like pizza. Ben took out his safe food list for Zoe. She looked it over. "You like Sushi but not fish sticks" Zoe said. "Ma'am don't judge him" Johnny said. "I'm not, all I'm saying is I thought you had a diet like Johnny...which is a three year old diet" Zoe said. "My diet is not a three year old" Johnny said.
Ben listened to the couple arguing about Johnnys diet. He put on his headphones. Bennie and the Jetts began playing. Ben shut his tired eyes, holding Randys hand he soon fell asleep. He dreamt of the first time Randy played the song. His terrible dancing with the broom, as he cleaned the frosting off the floor.
Randy slightly squeezed Bennys hand, three times. I. Love. You. Bens eyes opened groaning slightly he rose from his sleeping position. "Do it ag-ain" Ben whispered. He felt three soft squeezes on his hand. Ben squeezed back sending all his love around to him.
Zoe Johnny and Ben decided on a restaurant. Returning to the hospital a woman stood outside of Randys hospital room. Nervousness was all over her body. She took a breath before opening the door. The trio were walking outside of the elevator when they noticed the woman.
"Who is she" Johnny asked. Fry crumbs fell to the floor. Zoe didn't bother to scold him about the mess he was making. "Is that..." Zoe asked. Ben didn't have a slightest idea who the woman was.
The trio walked into the room, the woman was sitting next to Randys body. "Ma'am" Zoe asked. The woman turned around to face her. "Excuse me for interrupting, but who are you" Zoe asked. "I'm Randys mother" She said.
Her cold eyes shifted to Ben, Zoe stood in front of him. "You don't get to look at him" Zoe said. Ben knew the whole story about Randys father and mother. He walked past Zoe to be near his person. "I've come here to see for my own eyes what beautiful soul caught my son's eye" She said.
Randys eyes opened slightly, groaning he reached for Ben. "Randy" Ben said. Kissing his forehead he felt Randy grow into Bens touch. His eyes shifted towards his mother. Randy signed to Ben why is she here? Ben didn't have an answer for him. Randy looked for an answer from his love.
"I'm here to see you" She said. Randy laughed slightly. "To be sure I'm still alive so I can get beat up again. Or the second option which is force me back to that death sentence you call a Christian camp I'd rather stay here with my boyfriend and true friends than ever be stuck in a car with you for hours" Randy said.
Bens face turned bright red. Every word Randy confessed about him made him feel truly loved. "He's my person and I am his, not to mention his mother's treat me more as their son than you ever did" Randy said. Randy continued as he grew more and more raged. "You are here now to show your sorrow and love as a mother should but I don't want a single sorrow or sadness from you ever again so please do everyone in this room a favor and walk out that door head back home tell everyone I died or make up something that something terrible happened to me" He said.
