I've got you

I walked down the cold streets of Montreal, my whole body tense as it tried to warm itself up,

Is this all my life will be? Me living on the streets? Forever?

I looked around to see many people trying to get home, it is Christmas Eve after all.

I sat down by a bus stop, maybe I can gain a few dollars here? Maybe someone will care enough to say hello, give me a hat? Shoes?

Socks?

Suddenly a young man around my age stood infront of me, I looked up to see his well built body and face.

He gave me a small smile before giving out a hand for me to take.

I took his hand as he helped me up. He patted off my shoulders which were covered in snow.

"How long have you been out here?" He asked me

I shrugged "I don't remember" I said

Is the cold getting to me? Am I seriously going crazy now too?

The man sighed and looked at me concernedly, I guess I would look the same if I saw myself too.

"Would you like to come to my apartment complex? Warm up? Have a proper dinner?" He asked me

I looked at him oddly, is this man serious? Does he really want me- a dirty, smelly, young boy ruining his Christmas?

I smile and shook my head "don't waste your Christmas on me, I'm gonna die soon anyway, this winter is gonna be a cold one and all I have is shorts and a sweater on, I already have some sort of cold and my feet are probably totalled" i spoke beginning to tear up realizing how messed up I am

"Please, I insist" he said placing a hand on my back

I shrugged "ok, fine" I said

"The names Ethan" he said with a smile as we walked into a taxi

I smile "Grayson" I said as I was relived by the amazing warmness of the car

When we got to this mans apartment I began to feel nervous, what if he's some super creepy man who's going to rape me and then like kill me or something?

I guess that would be better then suffering outside?

Ethan unlocked his apartment door and we walked in, I swear my jaw hit the floor.

This is the biggest apartment I've ever seen!

Almost all the walls of the apartment are glass and it seems like we are at the top of the apartment building so this is penthouse I guess? I don't know it's been awhile.

"Do you like it? This is just my business place for when I need to come down to the city for the work but it's nice I guess" Ethan shrugged sticking his hands in his pocket

I looked at him like he was insane "this is amazing! Its so big and so clean! It's amazing!" I said absolutely astonished

Ethan chuckled "would you like to shower and get into some better clothes?" He asked

I nodded "yeah, but why are you even doing this? You could probably be at like the most expensive club seeing your lifestyle, why help me?" I asked hoping it didn't come out rude

Ethan chuckled again "I'm really not that kinda guy, but I felt like you needed it most out of all those people out there, a lot of them seem high almost all the time and seem physical and aggressive but you, you were so alone and sad and you are only in shorts! It's like -30 out there! Besides, you seem around my age we probably have a lot in common. Also you're quite cute" Ethan said adding a wink at the end

I blushed a little with a huge smile, I'm surprised someone has noticed me out there or even cared enough to do all this, plus he thinks I'm cute? Uh he'll yeah.

Soon Ethan showed me to the bathroom, he took my disgusting clothes which I said he could throw out and gave me new clothes, I showered for like hours and came out looking like a whole new person.

I put on the boxers and joggers and walked out as I put on the shirt my hair still damp and messy.

Ethan smiled as he looked at me, proud of what he's done.

"Thank you so much! Anyway, I should probably go I don't wanna ruin your Christmas" I said as I walked towards the door still without socks or shoes

"No! No! Please stay! I don't exactly have anyone to share Christmas with and besides you need to eat" Ethan said

I sighed and nodded as I closed the door and walked towards Ethan who had two plates filled with food.

I felt bad, it's freakin Christmas Eve and this poor guy is alone in an apartment eating with a homeless 18 year old.

"So why don't you have anyone to spend Christmas with?" I asked "if you don't mind me asking that is" i added

"My parents aren't exactly very loving so I moved out when I was 17, I got a really good job which was strange for my age, I then started my own companies and I got a lot of money, when my parents saw how amazing I was doing they suddenly loved me so I stopped talking to them, now I spend all my holidays working or alone in this apartment or my house" Ethan sighed

I sighed "I'm sorry" I said

Ethan shrugged "it's alright, I've got you now" he said with a smile
