Long time no see! Sorry I haven't posted in a while. I found out that I'm still having absence seizures and my meds are all messed up so my brain is kinda gone for now lol. But I went out of town and almost every time I go out of town I get this crazy inspiration so here you go. Title from "Renegade" by Big Red Machine ft. Taylor Swift 😌.
"Why the running mascara?" Alex asked as he walked into the studio.
"Oh," Julie gave a soft smile and wiped her eyes. "It's nothing."
"It doesn't seem like nothing considering you're crying."
"I... I um... I came out to my dad. They were just happy tears but yeah... I'm bi." Suddenly everything stopped for Alex. He just stood there frozen. "And now you hate me."
Alex whipped his head up. "Oh my god no. I could never hate you, Julie. Especially considering the fact that I'm gay also."
Now Julie whipped her head up and looked at Alex with wide eyes. "Really?"
"Yeah. Come here." Alex pulled her into a hug. "Even if I wasn't gay, I could never hate you. You know that right."
Julie nodded her head against Alex's chest. They pulled away from each other but still close together.
"So," Julie wiped her eyes. "Got a crush on anyone?"
Alex's cheeks turned pink. "Um... yeah actually. He's this ghost friend I met. He's like super cute and his name is Willie."
As soon as he said that, Luke and Reggie walked in.
"Woah, is everything okay in here?" Luke asked.
"Yeah," Julie said. "I was just telling Alex that I'm bi."
"Really?! That's so cool."
"Thanks for feeling safe enough to tell us, Jules," Reggie said.
"So... what's this about Willie?" Luke wriggled his eyebrows.
Alex threw a pillow at Luke.
"Shut up."
"You know he likes you too." Reggie grinned.
Alex shook his head.
"Uh, yeah he does," Luke said.
"I think you should tell him," Julie said.
Alex sighed. "I don't wanna ruin our friendship."
"Well, if he doesn't feel the same and doesn't wanna be friends anymore, we'll be here for you!" Julie said.Alex skeptically nodded but he knew deep down that the way that Willie acts around him is definitely not how friends act around each other.

A couple of days later, Alex and Willie met up at the skatepark. Willie wanted to show Alex a new trick he learned. Afterward, they went to the museum. They would do that sometimes and rant to each other about what was happening lately.
Willie could tell Alex was acting more anxious than usual.
"What's up?" Willie asked as they sat on the bench they moved weeks ago.
"What do you mean?" Alex looked down at his lap where he was messing with the cuffs of his hoodie.
"You just seem more anxious than usual."
"Oh."
Alex didn't want to say what was really going on. What was causing this anxiety but he knew that if Willie rejected him there would be all his other friends for him.
"I... I have something to tell you. Something that might ruin our friendship but it's taking a toll on me and it's been so obvious to my bandmates so I'm going to tell you."
Willie put his hand on Alex's knee.
"Alex I don't think there could be anything that could ruin our friendship."
Alex sighed. "I like you, Willie. Like, like you like you. And I totally get it if you're not into me. I can just leave and you can forget that you ever even met me. But I could never forget about you. Not since you pancaked me and flipped your stupid hair and I just instantly couldn't help but notice how hot you were. And- and you are like the best and- and if you don't like me that's fine 'cause you can always find someone else-"
Willie had had enough of Alex talking. He grabbed his face and connected their lips. It took Alex a moment to realize what was happening but as soon as he did he kissed back. When they pulled away, Alex had a shocked expression on his face.
"I guess this does ruin our friendship. Could we possibly now be boyfriends? 'Cause, unless I haven't made it clear, I like you too, Alex."
The thoughts in Alex's head weren't processing. Alex just nodded and Willie giggled.
The band was in for a treat when Alex got home.
