"I am gay."

His words echoed off the walls. Whispers, gasps, and shocked faces filled the room. A couple angry girls storming out as well.

Chan's head was spinning. He tuned out everything around him and closed his eyes. His heart was racing. Shit... shit.... shit... shit... What do I do? This is all my fault, how did I let him get this drunk. He's doesn't even know what he did... he's too drunk. He's gonna blame me when he figures out. It's not like I can help him now its too late. He just outed himself to practically the whole school- the word will spread quick.

Felix, Jisung, and Minho all stood there just as astounded.

"I knew something interesting would happen." Minho's voice sounded.

"Is this what you meant? I'm guessing he's one of the most popular kids- he just outed himself to the whole school." Felix said with his eyes wide,

"Not exactly what I had in mind..." Minho said, his words fading.

"Well he just got himself in deep shit." Jisung said, defeated, falling down dramatically on the open couch, "The boys drunk, he won't remember- somebody's legit going to have to remind him that he came out drunk to the whole school."

Minho and Felix exchanged a worried glance.

"So glad I came out in freshman year..." Jisung said, "I avoided this whole mess."

"Jisung! aren't you worried about Hyunjin right now! You guys are friends... why are you worried about yourself?" Minho said.

"Don't worry- like I said I already came out. I may not have been drunk but I do know how people react. Almost everyone is excepting here. Besides Hyunjin's a strong guy. He'll be fine."

"I get that, but your bi Jisung- Hyunjin said gay... these girls are gonna be pissed."

"Oh shit your right- girls here are quite mean too..." He trailed off as he sat up and looked at the boy who had sit back down next to Seungmin. But still I think he'll be fine... He got distracted from a standing figure in the corner of his eyes. Chan.

"Uh maybe we should be more worried about Chan..."

Felix and Minho looked at the standing figure who didn't seem to be moving.

"Is he okay, he seems paralyzed in that standing position?" Felix asked.

"Yeah I don't think he's good." Minho said starting to walk towards Chan, Felix followed.

"Chan?" Felix said, seeming genuinely concerned.

Chan broke out of his aimless stare and looked at the two boys in front of him. Jisung approaching behind them. He tried to speak but he couldn't.

"Chan it's okay- It was a mistake on his behalf... it's not your fault. All you have to do is be by his side to fend off the homophobes." Jisung said.

"Fend off the homophobes?" Minho said as he turned towards Jisung, he suppressed a chuckle, "A weird way to word it."

"Well how else would I word it."

"I don't know, maybe just say 'support him' or something along those lines."

"Fine..." Jisung shrugged off Minho and turned towards Chan, "Support him Chan, just like you have been."

Chan gave a silent nod.

"Come on let's go upstairs, seems like you need time to collect yourself." Minho said grabbing Chan's arm gently.

Chan agreed and followed him up the stairs, Jisung following behind them. Felix followed too, but stopped. He looked over to where Seungmin and Hyunjin were laying... except they weren't actually there.
