Ricky POV:

Phase 1

"Will it hurt?" I ask.

"Depends on your pain tolerance." The piercer says.

"Oh, uh, well I broke my collarbone falling off the top of a half pipe and didn't realize it until the next day."

"Yeah I think you're good."

Im worried about coming out to my parents so I'm trying to hint at it first to ease into it. I mean, I have a boyfriend but they just think he's a really close friend.

Phase 2

"They look nice." EJ says.

"I told my parents you forced me to." I say to nini.

"That's pretty believable actually." She responds.

"Yeah, that's why I said it."

"Maybe next you could start wearing a bit of makeup."

"Huh, well they know I'm a theater kid so it's not too out of the ordinary."

"Exactly." EJ adds.

"Ricky hold still." Nini says as she tries to put blush on me.

"It feels weird."

"Okay done."

"We should take a picture."

I started going to school with makeup about a week ago, my friends noticed but they already knew I was gay. My parents however, have not yet.

Phase 3

We're all hanging out at Ashlyn's, practicing for the musical.

"Can I paint your nails?" Ashlyn asks me.

"Sure."

"I'll do black cause you're still in the closet but once you come out, I'm gonna paint your nails every color of the rainbow." She grabs some nail polish off her desk.

I chuckle. "Oh ash."
