**TW**

Hey everyone! Quick author warning here before you get reading, this chapter has a lot of strong and emotional topics and has been the hardest chapter for me to write for this book. A lot of my books deal with extremely sensitive topics and what happened in this chapter will be explained in the next if you decide to skip this chapter.

Thanks for reading this short message, now on with the chapter! :>

Alfred paced his room as Rigby sat on his bed, his mind was swarmed with a million thoughts. It had been 4 months since his parents had come home, this was the longest he can remember them staying.

"Beanie bear, your muttering again," Rigby said giving him a concerned look and snapping him out of his thoughts.

"Oh, sorry love. I just got a lot on my mind right now." Alfred sighed as he sat down on the bed next to Rigby and gently kissed his cheek.

"Talk to me, I'm sure we can figure this out together," Rigby said slowly rubbing his back.

Alfred let out a long sigh, he was right, they needed to figure this out together.

"I just don't know how to tell them," Alfred said as Rigby laid his head against his shoulder.

"Hey, however you tell them it's gotta be better than how my dad found out, by the way, hide your hickeys better." Rigby giggled as Alfred smirked.

"Oh I can absolutely hide them, but why would I do that when instead I can let everyone know you're taken," Alfred said as Rigby hid his face in the crook of his neck.

"back on topic," Rigby said as Alfred chuckled at how adorable he was being.

"Andra took it amazingly, I just, I want my parents to react the same way." Alfred said as he ran a hand through his hair.

"They might not take it the same way but they're your parents, I'm sure they'll love you no matter what." Rigby said as Alfred gave him a weak smile.

He wished it were that simple. His parents wern't the unconditonal love type, they always wanted something in return. If there was nothing in it for them or it hurt them they wanted nothing to do with it. He wanted Rigby's words to be true more than anything.

"Who knows, all I can do is tell them and see what happens." Alfred chuckled as he pulled Rigby into his lap and hugged him tight.

"You don't have to if you don't want to Beanie bear. They have no right to know if you don't want them to." RIgby said as he placed gentle kisses on his cheeks.

"No I need to." Alfred said as he ran his thumb across Rigby's cheek, "I want to tell them."

"Alright, I support whatever you want, I'll be here for you no matter what happens." Rigby said gently tickling Alfreds sides.

"knock it off Duckling." Alfred laughed as he flipped them over.

He would tell his parents later tonight, but for now, he had some tickles to dish out.

Alfred walked down the stairs with Rigby following close behind. His parents were sitting in the living room together watching a documenttary of some sort. His mother was knitting as his father half watched the show as he was looking at the newspaper for the day. they looked like they belonged on the front of a magezine, their sandy light brown hair just like his illuminated in the glow of the tv screen. It was now or never. Rigby gave him a reasuring look as he nodded his head.

“Alright, mom dad I need to tell you something,” Alfred said taking a deep breath as Rigby held onto his hand.

His heart was beating harder than it ever had before.

“Sure, what’s up Alfred?” his dad asked as never looking up from the newspaper.

Alfred took a deep breath, his entire body was shaking, the words held in his chest waiting to burst forward into the open.

"well what is it Alfred?" His mother laughed at she glanced over at him and then back at her knitting.

“I’m gay,” Alfred said finally letting the words burst.

His dad muted the tv and turned to look at him. Alfred felt his throat close up as he held onto Rigbys hand tighter. This was a mistake.

“You're joking right?’ His dad laughed a little.

“Uh.…. n-no I’m not joking. I wanted to introduce you to my boyfriend.” Alfred said looking at the floor, as Rigby squeezed his hand a little.

“Alfred this joke isn't funny anymore!” His mother sobbed as she started crying.

“It's not a joke, Ma.” Alfred whispered as he felt tears begin to form behind his eyes.”

His father stood up and walked over to him. Alfred thought his heart was about to beat out of his chest, maybe this was a good thing? he was wrong.

His head whipped back faster than he could think as his father punched him. Alfred felt Rigby’s hand leave his as he fell to the floor.

"ALFRED!" Rigby shouted in fear as he backed away a little.

“HOW DARE YOU DISRESPECT OUR FAMILY!” His dad shouted as Rigby got down on the floor next to him.

Alfred felt the blood running down from his nose, as his father began to shout again,

“AFTER ALL WE'VE DONE FOR YOU! WE CLOTHED YOU, FED YOU, BUILT A LIFE FOR YOU, AND THIS IS HOW YOU REPAY US!? BY GETTING TOGETHER WITH THIS PIECE OF SHIT!”

Rigby shrunk back at his father's words.

Alfred had had enough. Tears mixed with the blood on his face as he stood up to his father. For the first time in his life he picked himself up and glared at his father.

“I don't care what you have to say about me, but you can NEVER EVER INSULT RIGBY!” Alfred shouted at his father.

Alfred’s father hit him again, Alfred felt his lip burst as more blood ran down his face. Alfred stood up from the ground and held Rigby’s hand again.

He quickly grabbed his father by the shirt and slammed him against the wall, as his mother screamed in fear.

"Go on you faggot, hit me." His father growled as Alfred caught sight of RIgby cowerin in fear behind him.

He sighed and let go of his father as his mother gasped in relife.

“You are the biggest disappointment ever, you are such a mistake.” his father spat at him. “I want you out of my house, no gay piece of shit will ever be related too me. I want you to pack up your stuff and get out.” His father said as he grabbed his mother's hand and dragged her out of the room.

“Alfred……” Rigby began with tears in his eyesas he gently placed his hand on his shoulder.

"I-I'm ok Rig's" Alfred mumbled, his busted lip making his words slur.

He gently took Rigby's hand and led him back up to his room. Alfred hugged Rigby as they cried.

"Are you ok Duckling?" Alfred asked cupping his face in his hands.

"y-yes I-I'm ok. I-I-I"m so s-s-sorry Alfred." Rigby sobbed as Alfred pulled him closer.

“Rig’s it’s not your fault. Please don't cry.” Alfred said as he whipped Rigby’s tears away.

"B-But your hurt.." Rigby sniffled as he whipped some of the blood off his face.

“Come on let’s get stuff packed, we can fix me up after we leave.” Alfred said as he began to gather his belongings.

When they were done Alfred had some clothes, his phone, and a few other things special to him. Alfred took Rigby’s hand as they walked out of the room.

“Alfred!” Andra cried out as she ran over to them.

“Anda please, if they see you with me there gonna hurt you. Please.” Alfred whispered to her as she stared at him in the hallway.

Alfred could feel the tears filling his eyes again.

“Take this, it's for your college, get out of here for me, make them proud where I couldn't,” Alfred whispered to her as he handed her the envelope with the money he had saved up for her.

“Al….” Andra began as Alfred placed the envelope in her hand.

“Please Anda do this for me,” Alfred whispered as he returned to Rigby’s side and walked out of the house.

"Take care of him for me kid, hes a handful." Andra said to Rigby with a weak smile.

"I will, I promise." Rigby said returning her sad smile, as he squezzed Alfred's hand.

"ANDRA." Came and agressive shout from inside the house.

She quickly closed the door as they both stared at the house, but before the front door closed Alfred heard the words of his sister drift out.

“I love you Alfred.” she had whispered as the door closed.

Alfred felt more tears stream down his face, “love you to Andra.” he whispered to the house as he took Rigby’s hand and they walked off into the dark.

He might not have his family anymore, but at least he still had Rigby. If he had lost Rigby tonight as well, life wouldn't be worth living.
