I need to get my act together. I think as I stare into the bathroom mirror. What do I do though? I've already screwed up everything.

"Get OUT of the bathroom Robert!" My sister yells at the top of her lungs. "You've been in there for 29 minutes and 5 seconds. 6 seconds. 7-"

"Ok I GET IT." I scream back. I stomp out of the bathroom. "Jeez" Evelynn says, looking at me as if she feels sorry. I wonder if she saw me acting like a baby in the hallway because of some crush. I shove the thoughts away. I can't deal right now.

I can't sleep. I lie on my bed my mind racing. Baa-bbyy. My mind tells me. I feel the urge to run to my parent's room and sleep there, but I can't. I guess I'm just a big baby.

"You good man?" is the first question Ethan asks that day. I hesitate. Should I tell him? "Me? O-oh I'm great." I say back and flash a grin. But Ethan can see right through me. Ugh why must I be so bad at lying! Surprisingly Ethan doesn't bring it up. We just walk to history in silence. As we walk down to halls something catches my eye. It's not a prom folder or her. Bailey and Kai walking together holding hands. 

I feel so... mad? No jealousy. I don't know why. I never used to be jealous of him. He is my bff. Right? He has been busy with Kai lately, but he hasn't really talked to me much. No, I'm probably not jealous of him. I'm jealous of their hands. Huh? I'm so confused I don't realize I have stopped walking and stared at their hands. Ethan shakes me. "C'mon, we're going to be late to history." Then we keep walking in silence.

Grass hits my knees and I feel the urge to itch. I know I'm allergic to grass, but I LOVE PE. So, I begged Coach to let me play. I grab the ball but I. Must. Itch. Before I know it, I'm itching myself so hard some blood is coming out of my skin. Coach blows the whistle. "Yer out kiddo. Stop itchin' and don't touch the grass." I sit on the bench and pout. I look up and see the other guys talking to Coach. Wonder what they're doing. EJ, Ethan and Liam walk up to me and sit on the bench. "What's going on guys?" I ask them. EJ talkes first. "Listen man, you've been kinda acting up lately." Liam interrupts "What we mean is" Liam shoots a glare at EJ "We are worried." I stay silent. I can't tell the guys about this. But the silence gets to me. "I-I like a girl."
