My voice whimpered, "Cal." I staggered back out into the store grounds. A red bunny had two potions in his paws, "MIKE WHAT HAPPENED!?" He gasped, dropping the potions. He caught me as I was gonna collapse, "Miko did you follow us?" "No no, it's me Cal." "Ok Mr. Easter Bunny." The easter bunny carried me in his fluffy red suit. He purchased some sort of magical potions and a picnic basket. He paid with a gold rectangle. And dragged me out of the big royal Disney castle. "Mr. Easter-Bunny where are we going?" "Somewhere special Mike you'll be ok I promise."

"Your soft Mr. Easter Bunny." Michael rubbed his head on my neck. I blushed bright red he started to sniff me, "You smell good Mr. Bunny-Rabbit." I didn't respond I was not taking Mike through the woods. While walking on the sidewalk slurp. "You don't taste very good Mr. Bunny-Rabbit I thought bunnies tasted nice." Oh my god a kiss and a lick one night, I'm squealing so hard. I sat Mike on the sidewalk staring into the woods we were once running through. And I cried. My best friend is on drugs I can't take him home what are his parents gonna think? Mike was twirling his hair he doesn't even remember me. As I cried I noticed that moose.
He staired Mike down and then looked at me. He looked down then nodded then gestured for me to follow. As I stood up Mike jumped up on me. "GO MR BUNNY-RABBIT FASTER, FASTER, FASTER. SPIN, SPIN-SPIN." He was hitting me on the top of my head. "Mike stop hitting me your distracting!" "Faster!" He covered my eyes and I tripped over the curve barrel-rolled down the hill. I landed on top of drugged Mike. "Mr... Mr. Easter-Bunny you are crushing me." I got up and dragged him through the wood we followed the moose for about 15 minutes.
I ended up by the edge of Geralds creek where it broke off into I think Gerald's lake. Mike stumbled behind and then passed out. I panicked very fearfully I couldn't even tell if he was breathing. "MIKE MIKE MIKE!!! YOUR OK RIGHT? PLEASE GET UP. PLEASE DON'T LEAVE ME. YOU'RE THE ONLY THING I HAVE. MIKE PLEASE!" I begged, pleaded, cried I was doing everything I could do. I collapsed onto my knees and started to shake him. I stopped still balling my eyes out and whispered, "Don't leave me here. My heart won't go on." I laid back on his chest drifting to sleep.

"Oh, what the hell happened? Cal?" He's laying on me. "Where the hell are we?" I spoke in a groggy voice. Calvin rose and stretched. "Mike you're ok. Wait am I still the easter bunny?" "What no what are you talking about?" He cried and hugged me I thought you were gonna die you were acting so weird." "It was that damn needle.." Before I could finish my dialogue he cried, "I thought I was gonna lose you." He let me go and dried his tears. I sat there and puzzled then asked, "Why didn't you take me home or to your or the hospital." "Uhh uhh well well... I uhh ok. Firstly I'm scared of hospitals. And I just met you and your mom was already freaked about your incident in the bathroom." I calculated everything he said then I realized he didn't say why not his house.
"Cal?" "Yeah" "Why not your house?" "I don't like being home Mike. Cuz my parents don't like gay people." "Aren't you gay though?" "They don't know I am." He started to cry again "If I told them they probably love me the same anymore. And I'd be an embarrassment." "But you moved I thought it was cuz the bullying." "Nope, I just really wanted to move. "I'm scared that my parents won't accept."
I took a deep breath and said, "Cal it doesn't matter what or who you are I will always love you." He stopped staring at the water and looked at me with a smile and flashy eyes. We leaned in and kissed his lips were delicate yet firm his breath was the perfect temperature. His hair smelt like almond as I caressed his hair as he hugged my back. I felt his heartbeat as he felt mine. We stopped kissing and then laughed "Cal I'm bisexual." We both chuckled then he said, "I had a feeling."
We opened our sodas together "3 2 1." "Cheers!" "Thank you, Calvin." "For what? I was waiting for you to kiss me." "Calvin George my cute little friend you have opened my one eye to explosion to infinite and an explosion of so many beautiful futures you changed my life." "Michael are you working on our wedding vows." I got flustered "What no." "Michael will you... wait a sec." Cal got up and took his Pepsi cap and dashed to a tree and snagged a vine and did something. He made a necklace and offered it to me. "Mickey Linx will be my forever partner in crime aka my boyfriend." Oh my god, Michael please don't freak out he's asking you why arent words coming out. I struggled to speak, "Yes Cal ill be your boyfriend." He made the most charming squeal. And practically squeezed the shit out of me.

I squeezed Michael in pure joy and love. I saw the moose nodding at me and then fade into the woods. My whole world shattered when I realized, "MIKE WE HAVE SCHOOL IN 6 HOURS!" He responded calmly, "Calm down little bunny let's take one thing at a time like this. He kissed my forehead and softly said, "let's get out of here first then worry about that." "We can go to my house. My parents aren't home remember they're gonna be gone for 5 days." "What about your car Cal?" "I have my keys and I only live like a block away." "Ok then let's go." We hiked our way through the woods with no animal encounters with small talk. We did hold hands the whole way through. We made it back to the sidewalk and began walking in the middle of the desolate street. Mike and I were spinning around like idiots. "I love this time of night." The lights were illuminating the best lighting for Mike and me. We made it to Mike's house.

We walked through the dark green lawn and I opened the door with a creak the lights were off except for the garage. I opened the door and my father put his hand over my face. "Calvin can I talk to my son alone, please." "Uhh yeah, sure thing Mr. Linx, Mike ill be in your room and ill get your stuff." He sat on the couch gesturing for me to sit on the couch. I obliged and sat down. "Mike I have a surprise for you." "What is it wait... DAD, YOU BETTER NOT BE HAVING ANOTHER CHILD." "What no I mean I want one but I'm waiting on your mother." He chuckled while I had the deadest expression on my face. He took a deep breath, "Mike what's wrong I know something has been bothering you what is it?" I don't want to hide from my father but am I ready to come out?
