Half-truth.

Chapter 5,

TW//None

~Third person POV~

It's the next morning, after everything that had went down the previous night.

Alex is a wreck, he can't help but feel bad because George had always helped him through his tough times, but Alex had no idea what was going on with George.

Part of him feels like it's his fault for not noticing sooner.

-
-

Alex approaches George's room, lots of thoughts running through his head,

What does he say?

How does he approach this conversation?

Is George ready to talk?

-

*knock knock*

"Come in Alex"

Alex enters George's room to see George sitting on his bed, on his phone.

"Hi George.." Alex says as he sits down next to him.

-

"So....." George trails off,

"We need to talk about what happened yesterday" Alex says,

"What drove you to do that? Was it your face getting leaked?" He asks

"No...." George says,

"Oh....well, what was it then if you feel comfortable telling me?"

"I just uh-....um well..." George just cant say it,

"Whatever it is, you know I won't judge you George" Alex reassures,

"I was just questioning some things...in my life" George admits.

"Can you be a bit more specific please George?" Alex asks nicely

"My um....sexuality." George finally says.

George feels his chest go tight as those words leave his lips, he never thought he'd say it.

Alex looks puzzled for a moment, not expecting George to say such things,

"Oh, well there's nothing wrong with that George, you know that, why did that drive you to...hurt yourself?" Alex asks

"I don't know...I know there's nothing wrong with it, but my parents always told me it was wrong, my biggest fear is disappointing them" George says

"Well you don't have to tell them if you don't want to anyways, what sexuality do you think you might be?"

"Straight" George lies

"George....I know you didn't hurt yourself over being straight, if you're not ready to tell me that's fine, just don't lie yknow?" Alex says

"Yeah, sorry, I just- I don't know yet."

"That's fine, take as long as you need to figure it out, you don't need a label anyways" Alex says

"Yeah, okay" George responds,

"If you don't mind me asking, why the sudden questioning?" Alex asks hesitantly

"I- um, I dont know" George says

"You probably do know but it's fine, talk to me if you want, whenever you're ready okay?"

"Okay, thanks Alex"

Alex gives George a quick hug and leaves the room,

George sits in his bed, happy he got a hug off of Alex, but not happy about the conversation,

Has he said too much?

Does Alex know he likes him?

Well not like but-
-
-

Actually there is no but, he definitely likes him.

-

Alex sits in his room, surprised with the information taken out of that conversation,

It was the last thing he was expecting George to say,

What's most important to Alex though is for George to open up, he doesn't want George to feel like he's alone.

He hopes he'll tell him everything soon,

When he's ready.
