Content in this chapter may be triggering to some readers: Mention of Suicide and Bullying

I might just kill myself. The fact that I thought it was a smart idea to say 'I'm gay' in an all-boys school was in fact, very stupid.  It's only been a week since was outed, and for the past few days the bulling has been relentless, and it doesn't seem to be stopping anytime soon. I swear to god I'm beginning to crumble under the weight of the gazes from everyone in the school. In fact, I had to skip gym today for that very reason. It's the class period where the insults seem more brutal than usual. The fact that Damion's locker in the changing room is next to mine. The way he treats me is going to lead me to suicide. I don't know how much more of him I can take.
