Y/n POV

"What does she see in him anyways?" I ask Alice as I eye Cindy and her boyfriend Tommy that's across the room in Cindy's cabin room. Since Cindy is a camp counselor, she has bigger rooms then all of us so Alice and I hang in here a lot but her stupid boyfriend is here right now too.

"I sure as hell will never know." She says lighting a blunt.

"You're not about to smoke that in here are you? Alice, you know Cindy doesn't like that in here." I say smacking her arm. "Take it outside." I give her stern eyes pointing outside.

"Whipped." She mumbles while walking to the door not forgetting to flip me off.

Alice is the only person in the entire world I've told that I was gay. Cindy and I are closer than Alice and I but I could never get the guts to tell Cindy. I guess I'm too scared of what her reaction could be. She may be embarrassed by me because she's "Little Miss Perfect." Who knows. Cindy and I have never really talked about homosexuality before but I've caught her staring at same sex couples a lot when we're in public. But she only stared for a seconds then looks away.

I feel a presence next to me and turn my head to see Cindy beside me. "Did I just see Alice with a blunt in here?" She asks looking around.

"Don't worry, I told her to take it outside." I say. Cindy smiles at me and I can see the twinkle in her eyes. Her eyes are a ocean blue and I swear when I look in them I always see a twinkle for some reason.

A few minutes later Alice comes in along with her boyfriend Arnie. "Sup y/n/n." (your nickname) He says bumping my shoulder with his fist lightly.

"Aye my man!" He says to Tommy as he walks over and Tommy puts his arm around Cindy. Cindy's eyes flicker to me but once she realizes I was already looking at her she immediately looks away.

"When are y'all getting married?" He blurts out looking between them.

"W- what? Arnie we're way too young for marriage. Why would we be thinking about that?" Cindy barely gets out in a sentence.

Tommy gives her a weird look, "I've thought about it."

"Oh, come on doesn't husband have a good ring to it?" Arnie laughs then gets in character. He puts an arm around Alice and says in an accent. "I'm Cindy Berman and this is my husband Tommy Slater." He says looking lovingly at Alice while batting his eyes.

Cindy crossed her arms against her chest and rolls her eyes. "Cindy Berman you can not sit here and tell me you haven't thought about your future. Getting married to this handsome man and getting home to your kids that you made with—" Arnie says but gets cut off by Alice.

"Have you thought about marrying me?" She asks in a vulnerable tone?

"Of course I have." He says smiling at her and they both lean into kiss. Once they've been making out for a couple seconds they both leave but not without groping each other in some unholy places.

I look over to Cindy and she's at the verge of crying. My hand immediately reaches for hers that's between our bodies. I give Tommy a look to leave but he doesn't. "Go!" I say in a stern voice.

"She's my girlfriend, I'm staying." He says reaching for her face. Cindy flinches away and in a quiet voice says, "Go Tommy."

He stares at her for a few seconds then narrows his eyes at me and I smirk as he leaves. When the door shuts I plant my body in front of Cindy's. "Look at me." I say gently placing my hands on her arms tracing up to her face and caress it.

Her soft, sad, blue eyes look at me with tears threatening to spill out. "Come here, Love." I say opening my arms out letting Cindy fall into them with her head dug in my neck. I can feel her tears wetting my neck and her arms tighten around my back. I whisper encouraging words into her hair and kiss her forehead from time to time.

After awhile she says without moving from our position, "I want to tell you something so bad but I c-can't."

I tighten my grip around her, "But why? Cindy you know I would never judge you for anything. If it's really bothering you this much, please tell me, okay?"

I feel her arms looses from my waist and her head lifts to look in my eyes. I lightly wipe away the tears from below her eyes and keep my hands on her cheeks as I plant a kiss on her forehead. I smile at her and she takes a deep breath.

"I-I'm... well I don't want a.... I don't want a husband...Ever." She says quietly.

"Cindy, that's it? Cindy I don't want a husband either—" Before I can finish my sentence Cindy grabs my face and kisses me with force. I moan into her mouth due to the fact that I've been waiting to kiss her since forever and my emotions have never felt like this. I feel my body temperature rise as I deepen the kiss. Before I can do anything further though, Cindy backs away from me. "I-I'm sorry. You don't understand y/n! You just don't wanna husband. Me on the other hand, I want to get married just not to a... just not to a man." She starts crying again.

As I'm going back and forth in my head about whether or not to come out to Cindy, she goes on another rant.

"Every time someone mentions the word husband, or even talks about Tommy being my husband... I-I I want to sit in a ball and cry because.. I want a wife! I want to one day call a woman my wife! Is that so bad?" She yells with tears streaming down her face.

I cant believe it. So much that I accidentally start laughing. Out loud.

"Y/n! Why are you laughing?" She asks annoyed.

I walk to her and place both of my hands on her arms. "Because I'm gay Cindy! I've known since forever but was always too scared to tell you." I manage to say through laughs. "It all started with you actually. I mean I guess I always knew in a way because I never had the feelings I do with woman. Being with a man never turned me on either but looking at a woman, let alone having a thought about one... I can. You... I realized I had a crush on you awhile ago and it never went away..."

Cindy kisses me again. "You talk a lot, can we skip to the part where you're my girlfriend?" She smirks.

"As much as I love that idea, aren't forgetting about your sweet, boyfriend Tommy?" I ask raising an eyebrow with my hands around her waist.

"He's a problem for later." She says an inch away from my lips.
