Barbara was newly 15 and she hadn't really ever had a proper relationship. Until, one boy from drama club asked her out. She wasn't a popular girl, so she was shocked a boy had actually noticed her.

"So? Would you like to go on a date?" The young boy asked her as he stood in the right wing facing her. He rubbed his arm nervously waiting for her response.

It was about to be Barbara's cue. So, she had to think quickly, despite the shock.  She nodded "Um.. yeah, sure. Why now?" She let out a nervous giggle. "Oh, that's my cue! Sorry " She gasped, then apologised.

"It's okay, I'll pick you up at seven?" He asked.
These two had done line practise at Barbara's house before, so he knew where to go.

She nodded and quickly went on stage.

Later that night barbara had put on a pink, mid length, flowy, mesh dress, along with some small heels.

She sat up, hearing a pebble hit her window. Barbara didn't know if she was allowed to see boys, so the young girl was going to sneak out.
Her date was dressed up really neatly. Very fashionable.

Barbara began climbing down the tree, from her window and they both took off and had a lovely date at the movies.

After 3 months of dating Barbara had told her parents about the boy she was seeing, and they all had had dinner together.

Although, once another 2 months had past the boy had come out as gay to the school. Barbara had heard this from her friends and everyone else, before he'd had the chance to tell her.

Barbara felt so heart broken and so angry with herself "oh, I'm so stupid.." she cried and ran to try and find him "Why the hell didn't you tell me?!" She shouted down the school halls.

He turned and looked at her, as she kept getting closer and closer,  he looked scared.
"Barb.. I'm sorry.." he apologised

"It's Barbara to you." She stood Infront of the shaking boy. She sniffled "it's fine that you're gay but- Why wouldn't you tell me? How long have you known? Did you seriously use me as some sort of..of- of shield?! So that people wouldn't think anything?" She cried, feeling so used.

"No, no, of course I didn't! I just.. I love you.. but-" he began explaining but Barbara cut him off

"But not like that.." she looked down and nodded

"I'm so sorry, barb- Barbara. you were amazing to me.. and maybe one day we could be good friends." He said softly and felt guilty watching her cry.

She nodded "yeah.. maybe one day." She couldn't stand to look into his eyes. The pain Barbara felt in this moment was like she'd been engulfed. She walked through the crowd of people that were watching and out the school doors.

The boy let out a sigh and told everyone "Go on! You all got your show, so go!"
—————————————————————
The next couple of days were hard for young Barbara. She wasn't going to school, eating or leaving her room. Eventually, things did get better and the two did become mutual but in this moment she wanted to avoid everything she could.
