Chapter 53 - David

My eyes wonder ahead of me to Alex as he talks with Paul and Chance on our way to his class.  My gorgeous boyfriend is getting better at walking with his crutches, but he still stubbles from time to time. 

A faint smile adorns my face as my eyes take in Alex’s tone body.  However, there is also a heaviness in my chest which I can’t quite place.  I think it has something to do with my mom’s birthday party, but I’m not sure. 

Alex seems a little off since the other night at the bar. 

I can understand his hesitation, though.  I remember the social event when I met his parents for the first time.  However, anger soon took over me, as his parents were nothing but rude and arrogant.  I’m also thankful Brandon’s father was there and could defuse the situation rather quickly. 

Luckily, my baby doesn’t have to worry about something like that happening with my parents.
