---TW SUCH AS ABUSE, CUTS, BRUISES, HURTING---
(Throughout the chapter)
It was Saturday and Andrea woke up before Diego feeling exhausted for what happened last night. She didn't feel like getting out of bed nor talking with Asher about what happened. She sluggishly got out of bed and brushed her teeth, overthinking on what she would say to Asher. Pondering even if she should talk with Asher today, or leave it for later on in Christmas break. She knew she had to talk to Asher yet just didn't feel like talking to him just yet. He broke a trust that took him time to earn and it worried Andrea if he would do it again. She didn't want a friend that would stab her in the back and use her for secrets. She finished brushing her teeth and went back inside the dorm to see that Diego was awake.
"Morning Andy" Diego said, whose hair was even messier than usual. Andrea laughed at his incredibly messy hair, it seemed to be very hard to tame. "Morning" Andrea said, rubbing her eyes trying to wake herself up, it was 7 in the morning and she doubted the boys would be awake. Which gave her a little more time to herself just before she would hopefully talk to Asher. "You're going to talk with him right?" Diego asked, making sure she remembered that she needed to talk with him. Andrea looked at him with a disgruntled look and was still annoyed by what had happened that night. Wishing he wouldn't bring that topic up that morning.
Andrea let out a disgruntled groan and sat on the bed, still annoyed about what Asher had done, and just didn't feel like it. "I guess, yet I doubt they are awake" Andrea said, trying to delay the time she will talk with them farther and farther back. Yes, she did miss Asher and their friendship however what he did really struck her hard. She hoped to figure something out that she didn't know about before, maybe that would help them get their relationship back together. "Well go to their dorm and just wait, remember what I told you" Diego said, trying his best to get their friendship back together. He knew how happy Andrea was and sometimes wouldn't stop talking about their crazy times when they would hangout. The silly things they were doing on the train ride to funny things that may have happened in their dorm.
"I remember Diego, I remember" Andrea said, she let out a sigh and went back into the bathroom to change. She put on ripped shorts and a shirt and walked back out to see Diego had already changed. She plopped onto the bed putting her pillow on her face thinking about what she would say. How she would approach Asher or just ask why he told Ella. "Can I tell you something?" Diego said, while he was looking in the mirror fixing his messy hair. He was wearing a light gray hoodie with some jeans. "Anything, what's up?" Andrea said, putting her hair into a ponytail so she wouldn't need to worry about it being in her face all day. Diego seemed to get nervous, yet she didn't know why.
"Um, I'm gay" Diego said, scratching the back of his neck, worried if she would judge him. Andrea looked at him at first with shock of hearing him say that then turned into excitement. "Diego that's amazing, I support you! Who do you like?" Andrea said, excited that his friend was able to come out. Diego looked at her and smiled, he was happy Andrea supported him. He was worried that Andrea would judge him for his chosen sexualtity. "You're the only person that knows I'm gay, and his name is Jesse, in Tigerthey" Diego said.
Andrea was happy that Diego trusted her to be the first to tell her about his sexuality. She was happy that someone trusted her with knowing something that serious. "I haven't met him yet, but I bet you guys will be perfect. I have to go now see you" Andrea said. "Good luck with your conversation, I'm always here if you need to stay here again" Diego said. Andrea was happy that even if their friendship didn't get back to normal she could come back to his dorm to stay another night.
When Andrea got back to her dorm she cautiously opened the door to see that the boys were already awake and changed. She was shocked to see that since both boys loved to sleep in whenever it was the weekend or any type of break. Andrea saw that Asher's eyes were red and puffy and she didn't know how to feel. "Do I feel bad, no- he broke it- ugh" Andrea said to herself while millions of thoughts were going through her head. Andrea also saw that Asher was holding a small, tiny bear she had given him for jokes. She didn't know that it meant a lot to Asher when she gave it to him.
