AARON’S POV

My eyes fluttered open as I groaned in pain. A dull ache throbbed through my head while my lip burned badly. Even my nose hurt each time I inhaled.

I winced slightly and stared at the white ceiling above me in confusion before the memories came rushing back all at once.

I shut my eyes again immediately, wishing I could somehow erase every single second of what happened.

“Aaron?”

I slowly turned my head at Chloe’s voice. She was sitting beside the infirmary bed looking exhausted. Her

  • PAY TO BREAK ME   HOMOSEXUALITY IS A SIN

    AARON'S POVWe got to church a little earlier today.My mum liked arriving early enough to greet half the congregation before service started while my dad liked arriving early because, according to him, "the closer you sit to the front, the less likely you are to fall asleep during the sermon."Personally, I would've preferred staying in bed. Unfortunately, nobody in my house cared about my preferences on Sunday mornings.By the time we found our seats, the choir was already warming up near the altar while people continued filing into the building.I just sat there watching everyone. Then, I noticed Mr. Harrison. He sat three rows behind us. His wife sat beside him while his two kids quietly argued over something on a tablet between them.He looked calm, responsible and respectable.I couldn't wrap my head around it.He looked nothing like the man from last night. Nothing like the man with bloodshot eyes and whiskey on his breath who had grabbed my shirt and called my mother a bitch i

  • PAY TO BREAK ME   SUNDAY MORNING

    AARON'S POVFor a long time, none of us said anything.Kyle just stood there while I cried into the front of his hoodie like some pathetic kid who'd lost a fight with the world.Eventually, my breathing started slowing down. The tears didn't exactly stop, but they weren't coming out like before.Kyle pulled back slightly and looked down at me. "Damn," he muttered quietly. "Whatever happened tonight really messed you up."A humorless laugh escaped me. "You have no idea."He studied my face for a few seconds before guiding me toward the couch. "Sit."I didn't argue. I dropped onto the cushions while Kyle disappeared into the kitchen and came back with a bottle of water.I took it from him with shaky hands. "Thanks."He sat beside me as silence stretched between us again. Then, he cleared his throat. “Did something happen at the club?”I looked up.Of course he knew. Kyle was the only person in my life who knew everything.The club.Jay.The truth about me being gay.I looked down at the

  • PAY TO BREAK ME   NOT A COWARD

    JACK'S POVThe room felt strangely quiet after Aaron left.For a while, I just stood there staring at the closed door as if he might suddenly walk back in and tell me to go fuck myself.Honestly, I deserved it.I dragged a hand through my hair and exhaled heavily.Fuck.I really shouldn't have spoken to him like that. At the time, all I'd seen was the same thing I always see every single time I crossed paths with Aaron.Someone shoving him around. Someone saying whatever the hell they wanted to him. And Aaron standing there taking it, every single time.I remembered the bruises he'd shown up with that night. The ones he'd casually brushed off as school bullshit. But it was actually from Alex. If I didn't know better, I would have believed him.Aaron always allowed people to bully him anyhow they wanted. He hardly fights back.So when I saw that man with his hands all over his shirt while Aaron stood there looking like a deer trapped in headlights, something inside me had snapped.I th

  • PAY TO BREAK ME   MISJUDGED

    AARON'S POVI couldn't understand why Jay had stopped dancing or why he was staring at me.The lights were still flashing around him. The music was still playing. The crowd was still watching him but it felt like his attention was completely here.On me.I couldn't even understand the expression on his face because of the mask.Mr. Harrison took another step forward. He looked even angrier now. "Do I look like your age mate, huh?" he snapped. "You little bastard."I quickly looked away from the stage and adjusted my face cap lower. Then I pulled slightly at my nose mask, trying to hide whatever part of my face was still visible.He must not recognize me.I lowered my head slightly. "I'm really sorry once again, sir."Mr. Harrison scoffed and eyed me. "Is that how you were taught to apologize, you son of a bitch?"My head shot up instantly.What the fuck did he just say?Son of a bitch?Calling my mum a bitch?The same woman who had lent him money more times than I could count. The sam

  • PAY TO BREAK ME   MR. HARRISON

    AARON'S POVThe cab pulled over outside the club and I quickly handed the driver his money before stepping out onto the street. The familiar neon sign hanging above the entrance immediately caught my attention.For some reason, my chest tightened.My eyes drifted upward toward the glowing letters before the image U.X. had sent me flashed through my mind again.The picture of Jack walking out of this same club.My fingers curled into fists at my sides.What if he was inside right now? What if I walked in and saw him?Worse...What if he saw me?The thought alone made my stomach twist.Jack had framed me once before.One stupid accusation involving drugs had been enough to get my name removed from the scholarship list. Somehow, after weeks of hell, meetings and explanations, I had managed to get my name back on that list.The last thing I needed was another disaster.Especially this one.Because if Jack exposed me for coming to a gay strip club?It was over for me.The scholarship, my p

  • PAY TO BREAK ME   STRANGE RELIEF

    AARON'S POV“No.”His answer still hung in the air.Just that.The entire hallway had gone completely silent like someone had pressed pause on reality.Vanessa couldn't even say a word. Her smile had completely wiped off.She just stood there frozen, trying to process what had just happened. Her friends behind her looked equally shocked, confused and embarrassed.I’d never seen Vanessa get rejected before.Honestly… nobody had.My eyes moved back to Jack. He had already pulled his arm away from Vanessa and started walking away like he didn’t just shock the entire crowd with just one word.People were still staring at him as he walked through them. The crowd split automatically, obviously afraid to stop him.I should’ve looked away but I couldn’t. Halfway through, Jack suddenly turned his head.Our eyes met again.But this time… it felt different. I couldn’t explain it.Then, he looked away and kept walking.My chest tightened.Earlier… I hadn’t even realized how tense I was until that

    Jack’s PovAaron was looking at me.As my finger slid into him up to the hilt and he let out a surprised moan, his eyes found me. Myheart rate sped up, and, weirdly… I wanted to take a picture of the look on his face.The pleased surprise was the most evident, eyes glittering with the new sens

  • PAY TO BREAK ME   A RED ROOM II

    (Jack’s Pov)Aaron?You had to be fucking kidding me. Aaron had paid for me?I couldn’t fucking believe it. I stood, back to the door, my fingers flexing harshly. Why was he suddenly everywhere around me? Did he know who I was under this mask?He couldn’t. I didn’t use my name at the club and I was

  • PAY TO BREAK ME   A RED ROOM I

    (Jack’s Pov)Thumping jazz music floated through the room, creating a sensual ambience that went very well with the alcohol coursing through my veins, making me pleasantly tipsy.It was cool enough that my nipples would pebble if it weren't for the rhinestone nipple covers but not cold enough that

  • PAY TO BREAK ME   NEON SIGNS

    (Aaron’s POV)“What are we doing here?” I asked, looking at the building like it was a maximum security prison. The green neon sign of what we're obviously two women rubbing on themselves winked at us and I quickly looked away.To Kyle's credit, he did look sheepish and slightly embarrassed. He sh
