Chapter Ten! - Out

My favorite chapter ever. <3 Hope you enjoy this fast chapter. Tell me what you think! Don't be a silent reader!

I just got home from the store and Iris was just getting in the car.

She Face-Timed me, I quickly ran up to my room.

"Hello?" she said.

"Hi!" I said with a smile.

"Guess what" she said.

"Yeah?" I said.

"I have the most nosiest co-worker at the store, she saw me and you and next thing you know she was asking me everything." Iris said.

"That kinda sounds like Raj and Charlie in a one person form, If you ask me."I say.

"Well, I just wanted to say 'Hi' and hear your voice, because I'm so lonely." Iris said.

"Me too, also I have something to tell you." I said.

"What is it? Is it bad?" Iris asked, as she was driving and overthinking a little bit.

"No, it's good I swear." I say.

"I came out to my mom, I told her we were girlfriends." I said.

"She asked me why I was talking to you a lot recently, I almost called you a friend but I didn't have the heart to not tell her the truth, so I told her." I added.

"Are you serious?" Iris said, in a shocked tone, I looked at her face through the phone and she had the prettiest smile I had ever seen.

"That's amazing El!" she said as she smiled the biggest smile.

"I'm coming over now, Ok now I'm outside!" she said as she came inside, I could hear the door open, then shut.

I heard her run up the stairs, then she burst through my door.

"Your freaking amazing, El!" she said as she jumped on to the bed, then hugging me.

I hugged her back and I started to look at her, so deep in her eyes.

She leaned in.

I leaned in.

We kissed.

We kissed for a moment.

Then we were out.

"I-I don't even know what to say," I said, smiling, showing my teeth.

I hugged her, then kissed her cheek.

"Your actually amazing right now." she said.

"We just kissed, my first kiss, and your my first kiss I-" I said, as I didn't know what to say AT ALL.

She then brought me over and we leaned over to the pillow of my bed, on our sides, she held my head, I held her shoulders, we kissed again.

All I could think about was how I loved her, but was it too early to say 'I love you'?

"Well I guess you're out." she says.

"Just to my mom." I say.

"But to your parents? That's a big step." she says.

"My dad is just always working, to be honest." I say.

"My parents already know that I'm Bi, but they don't know about me and you." she adds on.
