TW: the f slur is used in this chapter!!

jake's pov:

hello! my name is jake wheeler. i go to a middle school based in hackensack, new jersey. my life is pretty average, for a 14 year old, that is. i get pretty average grades, i like making sculptures out of dolls (normal, right?) i have an achoholic dad, i like retro stuff, oh and, i'm gay.

nobody knows i'm gay. not even my dad. if he knew, it would not be pretty for me. i'm unfortunately labeled as the "school weirdo" i get bullied by the popular kids, and the non popular ones. pretty much anyone that fits "within the norm" has it out for me. i'm not sure why though, i've never done anything to get on their bad side. anyway, enough about that,

i have a crush on a boy named devon evans. he's the school's "true crime" fanatic. he's even got his own podcast where he talks about true crime cases. (and yes, i do listen to it) i just adore his smile and the compassion he has for others. he literally has no flaws, he's perfect. his one flaw though, is that he's best friends with my cousin junior, as well as lexy, his girlfriend.

who also happens to be my biggest bully.

she can't go one day without teasing me, or making snarky comments about me to others (which are never true) i'm honestly just tired of it. i wish junior would talk to her, considering he's my cousin; but he's just as bad as her. he makes fun of me just as much as she does.

when i said no one knew i was gay, i lied, junior knows. i'm honestly terrified too, because if i make one slip up, or make him mad, he could easily out me to the entire school, as well as my dad. he's got all the power in his hands, and i'm terrified he'll use my fear to his advantage.

no one's pov:

it was a regular friday afternoon, and it was lunch time. jake decided to sit at one of the empty tables, as to not cause trouble.

"well look who it is." someone said as they sat next to jake. jake took his earphones out and looked to his left. there she was, lexy. jake scoffed. "what do you want, lexy?" he asked. "nothing, i just wanted to say hi. are people not allowed to say hi to their friends anymore?" lexy asked, pretending to be offended. jake laughed at the comment. he looked at her and said, "we are not friends." "yeah.. you're right. no one would wanna be friends with someone like YOU." lexy replied as she flipped her hair back. "where'd you get that comeback, 5th grade?" jake laughed. "you're just as fake as your hair color" lexy gasped. "did you seriously just insult me? wow. you know, i really didn't wanna have to do this, but you leave me no choice." lexy said, getting up from her seat. "what are you doing?" jake asked, perplexed. "you'll see." lexy winked back at him. lexy got up on the tables to get everyone's attention.

"ATTENTION EVERYONE! I NEED EVERYONE'S ATTENTION!" lexy yelled as she stood up on the table. everyone immediately shut up, because she was the most popular girl in school, as well as the mayor's daughter.

"jake wheeler over here, has a little secret he'd like to share" lexy practically shouted. "what are you doing?" jake whispered. "you'll see." she whispered back. "well, go on jake, share your little secret." she teased. jake knew what she was talking about, and he was shaking his head no, practically pleading her not to do it. "aw, you don't want to? that's ok, i will." she fake smiled. "jake wheeler... is gay!" she then hopped off the table and started walking away.

jake froze in fear and didn't know what to do.

"how did she know??"
"junior told her, you idiot!"
"yes yes i know, i know"
"STOP TALKING TO YOURSELF AND RUN"
"WHERE?"
I DONT KNOW! ANYWHERE BUT HERE!!"
