#3 of Sunsets


Here's the third chapter,it's kinda sad,but it has it good points,so don't worry...Enjoy,

Isu woke up feeling a little sick and dizzy.Yesterday's events still echoed in the back of his mind.He folded his ears back on his head and stared down for a while.His crush had refused his love,even when he had gone out of the way to save Isu from being raped.Isu placed his head in his paws and started to cry.He couldn't figure out why someone would save him and then reject him,it didn't seem right.

"Sweetie?"

Isu's mom opened the door,and found her son crying.Sighing softly,she walked over and comforted him.Rubbing his back softly,he asked,

"You ok dear?"

Isu looked at his mom,tears running down his face.

"I don't understand it mom.Why would blane save me and then not love me?"

"I don't know sweetie,I have no clue,but he did save you,and I'm glad he did before it got any worse...He's a good person for doing what he did."

Isu looked down at the floor and sighed.His mom hugged him and kissed his forehead.

"After breakfest,we're going to get you tested,Ok?"

Isu nodded,and hugged him mom before she left the room to let her son get dressed.Closing the door behind her,she walked to the living room where Isu's father was sitting.

"I hope nothing's wrong with him." She spoke to her husband.

"What with all the crazy homos running around,I hope the poor boy is ok too..."

Isu's mother tensed at the word.She hated how her husband used uneccessary words to describe gay folk.

"Dear,you know how I hate when you say that..."

He got up from the couch,buttoning the top of his shirt.

"It's the truth though,you never know who they are,so you have to be careful that they don't do to you what they did to our son."

Isu's mom put on that look that could kill face,and her husband was a little taken aback by her response.

"Dear,not every person who is gay is a rapist or some kind of diseased freak of nature,ok?In fact some of the most intellegent and generous people are gay,and famous artists and inventors from History were homosexual,so you have no right to critize them for who they are and who they love."

Isu's father snapped out of his shock and asked,

"What's with you? Is something wrong?"

Isu's mom rolled her eyes and went upstairs to their bedroom,Leaving her husband confused by what she had said.

"Sometimes that woman confuses the hell outta me..."

Isu's mom shut the door behind her and shook her head.She couldn't believe the nerve of her husband.She had clients who were gay,and she had gotten to know them well,because she had to protect their civil rights in court,Their partnership depended on wheither or not she could defend them and win her cases.Not to mention the recent discovery that her son was gay.

Isu's mom had been cleaning his room one day,until she found that he had left his laptop on.Not wanting to ruin anything,She moved the pad until the screen came on and noticed a file that read,"Paw time".Curious,she opened the file and was a little shocked that her son would look at such thing,but it calmed her suspisions she had had about her son for some time,what with the wolf doll on his bed,and the way he admired how she won most of her cases.

She was worried more that ever now,though,Her son had been raped yesterday,and she wanted to make sure that he didn't catch anything too serious.Finding her purse,he grabbed it and went downstairs.

Isu got out of bed and put on a nice shirt and pants.whenever he visited the doctor or someone important,he liked to look decent or at least nice.Opening his door,he went into the bathroom,when his dad called down the hall.

"That you,buddy?"

Isu combed his head fur to look nice,and he called back.

"Yeah,it's me"

Isu's mom called fromt the stairs.

"Breakfast is gonna be ready in a bit,so get ready,ok?"

"OK!"

Isu called back from the bathroom,and shut the door,locking it.

Pulling off his clothes,Isu turned on the shower and stepped inside the warm stream of water.

As he scrubbed himself,he began to think of yesterday,and he began to scrub himself harder,but he felt as though the feeling would never leave,and he curled into a ball and started crying again.He shivered,even though the warm water poured onto his fur,he felt cold and alone,No one to hold him or say it was going to be all right.

It was a small while before Isu finally came to his senses and began to turn off the water.He finised washing himself and stepped out of the shower and dried himself off,being thorough to get everywhere,so he would feel a little safer.

Slipping on his clothes,he looked at himself in the mirror.He was handsome,but his amber eyes relfected a sorrow and pain which no one could understand,a pain of heartbreak and destroyed trust for one he thought he could love.Sighing,Isu walked out of the bathroom and into the kitchen to find waffles and some scrambled eggs on his plate.

"Here,eat up,you'll need it so you can get tested right."

His mom smiled and rubbed his head,and Isu murred softly,enjoying the comfort his mom always brought him."

"Love you son"

Isu's father hugged his son comfortingly.Isu loved his dad,but he felt nevous as he was hugged.His father wasnt' the best person to talk about gay furs with,and Isu himself was gay,so he was frightened by what his father would think of him if he found out.

Sitting down at the table,the family of 3 enjoyed their breakfast before climbing in the car to go to the doctor.

Isu's doctor came through the door.He was a big tiger,and he had one blue eye and one green eye.Isu liked his doctor,and did everything he was told.

"Now Isu,I'm going to take some of your blood,so I want you to know this may sting a litte"

Isu tensed up as the needle entered his arm,and watched and some of his blood entered the needle.

"You're a very brave boy,you handled that well!"

Giving Isu a pat on the head,the tiger purred as the small wolf wagged his tail happily.

"The test results will be back in about 15 minutes so if you could just wait here,we'll have them for you."

Isu's mom hugged her son with hope and anticipation.Isu's father was standing outside the hospital smoking,wondering the fate of his son's test.

15 minutes later,the doctor came back into the room.Looking up from his papers,His face showed deep concern.Isu and his mom tensed.

Mrs.Mura.....The test came back....Positive...Your son has AIDS....

Isu's entire world shattered at the news.He could only stare blankly at the floor...He felt what hope he had left be crushed underneath a sea of emotion,and he folded his ears back.

His mother held him tighter that she ever had before,and she nuzzled her son softly.

"Is there Anything we can do?"

"There are treatments in which can help stop the progression of it attacking his immune system,and there are some medications he can take if he starts to feel sick,in which he should take immediately if he shows signs of a cold..."

Isu's mom hugged her son.She knew that they all had to live through this for the rest of their lives,and she wondered how long her son would live through this.He was only 16 for god's sake,why should he die as such a young age,or live until his teenage years were over and die a young man?She couldn't bear the thought of losing her only son.

When the doctor had given Isu's mom the neccessary treatments to keep Isu from getting sick,They walked out of the hospital and found Isu's father anxiously waiting.He took the news about the same way Isu did,and they climbed into the car.

Entering the house,Isu's father threw his jacket on the couch.

"Is this what I deserve,My son getting raped by some sex crazed pervert and giving him AIDS?"

"Dear,now's not the time to start this up,especially since we all had a rough day."

"Isu's the one taking it rough,he was raped by a fag,poor boy's gonna have nightmares..."

"Honestly why can't you just shut the hell up?"

Isu began to cower as his parents began arguing.

"What's with you lately? You've been complaining about how I'm insulting those freaks of nature you call friends."

"Exactly my point,What did I say earlier,Not all gays have AIDS, and it's not Isu's fault he has it now,but that doesn't mean that all gays have it!"

"Look what they did you our son! They turned him into a sick patient! It's not Isu's fault he's not gay,He got raped by A fa..."

"WOULD YOU BOTH JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP?!"

Isu's parents stared amazed at their son,who was in angry tears.

"Where the hell do you get of critizing gay people for who they are and who they love?! That's their right and desicion,and I'm one of them! Yes,dad,I'm gay,a homo,a fag,all those terrible things,but you know what,I'm proud I'm gay,I've felt happier to be gay than anything else in the world,And I'm sick of people like you! You have no Idea how I feel!"

Isu ran out the door and toward the neighberhood park,angry at why his parents would hate him for having a potentially deadly disease and being gay.

Isu's father was still in shock at learning his son was gay,but his mom was busy grabbing her keys and running out the door to even care.

"My...My son's.....Gay?"

Isu reached the Park where numerous swings and slides where.Crawling inside a small tube slide,Isu curled up and cried his heart out.His life had gone to hell in the past few days.

He wished he never had thought of taking Blane's picture,he blamed himself for loving such an arrogant jerk,and wish he had found someone else...His cell phone buzzed and he saw that is was his mom.He didn't answer it and continued weeping,He was really all alone now,No one would love a AIDS Infested fag,he thought to himself,and he shivered in sorrow.

His phone buzzed again and he noticed it was His best friend,Dulce.Dulce was and had always been there for Isu when he needed him,so he answered,choking out his words..

"H-hello?"

"ISU! where the hell are you?"

"I-I'm at the small park..."

"Stay there,I'm coming to get you...."

"Dulce..."

Dulce hung up,and Isu waited,sniffling and trying to keep himself calm.

Suddenly Dulce's head poked into the tube and he crawled inside.

"Isu..."

"Oh god Dulce....." Isu hugged his friend like he was a family member.

"Your mom called me and told me everthing from yesterday to today...God I'm so sorry Isu..."Dulce held his friend as he cried into his chest.

"I don't wanna be alone! I don't wanna be alone anymore,I......"

Dulce hugged his friend and pulled him close,and a small gasp escaped Isu.

"You'll never be alone,Isu...I'm always gonna be here for,no matter what...."

"Thanks Dulce....Dulce?"

Dulce held Isu close,and nuzzled his neck.

"Isu...there's something I've been wanting to tell you for a long time now..."

Isu looked into his friends dazzling blue eyes.

"Ever since we've been friends,I've always liked you more than you think.....Isu,I....I love you....I want to be your boyfriend,Isu....I've always loved you,and I'm not going to let anything change that...."

Dulce pressed his lips against Isu's in a warm kiss,and he moved them against Isu's in compa

ssion.Isu was shocked at first,but he let himself drift away as he kissed Dulce back,letting his mind fill with longing.This is what he wanted.He wanted someone to love and care for him,protect him from anything that might want to harm him

Isu then realized he should have noticed Dulce's advances to him...Sometimes he tried holdind Isu's hand,and he even nuzzled his cheek a few times....He was too wrapped up in himself trying to get blane to notice the perfect person was right here in his arms now,kissing and loving him.

Dulce broke the kiss softly,and he stared at Isu with compassion.Isu stared back with happiness shining in his eyes.

I love you Dulce..."

"I love you too,Isu..."

They hugged for the longest time until finally Isu called him mom back.

"Mom? Yeah,I'm with Dulce,I'm spending the night As his place tonight....How's dad?"

Isu flinched at the news

"He's....leaving?......Yeah...Uh huh....Ok.....I love you mom....I'll see you tomorrow,Ok?Ok, ye..."

Isu hung his phone up,and he looked at Dulce,the Setting sun turning his cream colored fur a firey orange,and he took Dulce's hand in his hand,and kissed him before leading him out of the park.

As the sun went down,Isu held Dulce's hand in his and he rested his head on Ducle's shoulder

"I love you,Dulce...."

Dulce rested his head against Isu's,and nuzzled him softly.

"I love you too,Isu"
