The Last Beat Hitting Home
Hitting HomeGabriel's I stared at my own reflection in the vanity mirror whilst fixing the collar of my suit. I took a couple of deep breath as I feel extremely nervous about what's about to happen. And as I stare at myself, I can't help but cry again as I remembered everything that we've been through.I cried even more when the image of Maze lying bloodied in my arms while I called his name nonstop flashed through my mind. I feel like it all just happened yesterday and yet here I am. About to hit home. It was then the door opened and my mom came in. She gave me a warm smile when she saw me crying as she walked towards me. I also smiled at her but then started crying again like a baby when she pulled me in for a hug without saying anything. She just stood and hugged me as if that can soothe me from having all these feelings. And it somehow helped to calm me down.She then pulled away to look at my face and she smiled as she stared at me lovingly.She fixed my hy hair and pa
The Last Beat SAVED
SAVEDGabriel'sMy world's in a blur once I opened my eyes and I was welcomed by a bright light conquering the room. On a split second, I really thought that I was dead and this was already Nirvana. But as soon as I've felt the pain on my chest, I knew for sure that I'm alive and I'm probably in a hospital.I dared to get up but one was quick to stop me and firmly held me back from getting up.It's Michael.He smiled at me softly as if he's consoling me and I couldn't help but frown.The first person that comes through my mind was my husband.And after remembering what happened before I passed out, I went hysterical before frantically looking around."Where's Maze? Where's my husband?" I asked Mike as tears started streaming down my face with the immense fear I'm feeling.That aside from the physical pain I'm feeling from the wound on my chest, the pain I'm feeling within whilst thinking what could possibly be the reason why my husband is not around is much more bigger than any phys
The Last Beat Les vœux
Maze'sI felt my tears streaming down my cheeks as I look at the love of my life, looking as beautiful as ever, whilst he walks towards the predella where I'm standing. I can also see the reactions among our guests and I can really see that they are happy for the both of us. I looked at our friends and can't help but to cry even more because of how thankful I am to them for staying with us and for fighting with us amidst of the danger. I looked at Gabriel's mom and she smiled at me. And I uttered 'thank you' but I know that that's not enough. Those words can't really express how grateful I am to her for bringing Gab to life and for making him such a strong person that I can lean on whenever I'm weak and vulnerable. I looked at my wife again as he reached the predella and he looked at me with nothing but love in his eyes. We were to drawn with each other's orbs and we didn't notice that our son is standing between us. If Nathan hadn't taken my hand to intertwine it with Gabriel
The Last Beat Maze's Vows
"I may have kept some things from you, Gabriel. Some things that even I, myself, hated about me. But I will never forget how you made me realize that I can be the most hideous person I think I am, and you'd still love me with every beat of your heart.I will never forget how you managed to bring light in my darkness and how you filled the void in my life with your mere existence.And it was then I realized that I don't really believe in love.I only believed in you.And I can never love somebody else as much as I love you.Cause my love is no one but you.You are my home that I'll always try to protect.The home that I'll always get excited to run to after a tiring day.The arms that I'd love to wrap around me as I sleep.The owner of the lips that I'll forever long to kiss.You're my constant reminder that I am loved.And this heart of mine, my love.It beats for you.I love you Gabriel Thornton-Johnson."
The Last Beat Gabriel's Vows
"Maze, the love of my life. I know we had gone through a lot and I've witnessed how you doubted yourself about being a good partner to me and a dad to our son, Nathaniel. But I want you to know that no one can ever replace you.You will always be my person.The one that I trust the most.The one who made me feel like I was never broken.The one who made me realize that I can be someone's home.You made me feel needed.And my life before you, that's all I ever wanted.To be needed and to be loved.And you did all that.You took away all my traumas and tried your best to protect me and our son.And I want you to know that I'm still keeping my promise, Maze.That if there come a time that you wanted to weep and slack off, you can always look for me and I'll be there.

The Last Beat Prologue
Maze'sThe delicious smell of my favorite mac and cheese tingled my nose when I entered the kitchen. My eyes automatically looked for my husband and there I saw him preparing our dinner table. Aside from mac and cheese, I can see that he also made my favorite steak and other delicious foods for our 11th year anniversary. And I can't help but smile as I crossed my arms against my chest while leaning at the doorframe and just watched my wonderful wife do all the work. Life with Gabriel was, is and I am sure will always be beyond wonderful. We have our ups and downs as a couple but that didn't make me love him less. In fact, I loved him even more as years passed by and he showed me how wonderful it is to have someone like him in my life. I honestly think that I'm the luckiest man on earth as I'm able to get myself a very good-looking and the best husband I could ever wish for and also a wonderful son that makes life brighter for the both of us. It's also exactly two years ago when
The Last Beat Chapter 1
Gabriel's "How's Maze?" Crimson asked on the other line as I talked to him while preparing something for Maze to eat. I looked at Maze who's sitting quietly at the dining table. I can feel his perturbation to where I'm standing right now and it's obvious that he's been restless for the past few weeks after receiving that call. I know that he can hear me talking to his best friend but he's too drawn to his own thoughts to even care. He's been like this since last month. I'm afraid that his agitation might go out of hand. And it can't be any good especially to our son, Nathaniel. He's used to seeing us happy and easy going but now, the household was overshadowed by deep perturbation brought by that goddamn call from Maze's estranged father.We all thought that it's over. We haven't talked about him for 11 years now and he didn't bother us during those times so we really thought that he had already let go of the thought of having Maze as his heir. But now, he's back. And he has th
The Last Beat Chapter 2
Gabriel'sMaze and I looked at each other after we heard the doorbell ringing. The only guests that we're expecting today were Michael and Mysty who had obviously arrived a long while ago and I can't help but to feel nervous just by thinking who the person outside could be."Gab." I was quite stunned when I heard Maze speak for the first time today and my heart can't help but to flutter because the first word that came from his mouth today was my name. I know that it's such a cliché but you can't blame me.Some things never really changed all throughout the years. And that's Maze's effect on me and the same goes to my effect on him."What is it, Maze?" I asked him as I internally castigated myself for being able to think of such mushy things in the middle of this freaking situation."Will you please open the gate for me?" My mouth went agape when Maze said those words and I can't help but frown as well. 'What the hell is he talking about?'Was he expecting other guests aside from
