  I stand behind my mom as she knocks on Jack's door. Jack's mom opens the door with a huge smile. "Please come in, its so nice too see you both, Im glad you decided to come." She says letting us in.

   She hugs my mom then me, "I wanna hear all about you trip, over dinner. Jack was been ignorant and wouldn't tell me anything." She says. I give her a weak smile. "Come sit. Dinners about ready to come out of the oven." He says.

  I take a seat next to Molly, Laura on the other side of her. And Jack across from me. We've had dinner over here a million times, but this time was different I just felt so.... so awkward.

  Jack's mom came out of the kitchen with spaghetti and garlic bread. She puts some on everyone plate and a piece of garlic bread as well. Everyone slowly starts to make small talk, but I just sit there playing with my food.

  I was so deep in my thoughts I didn't hear when Jacks mom asked me a question. "Huh?" I question. "I said how was the trip." She asks again slightly laughing. "Uh, it was fine." I say.

"You and Jack meet any pretty fangirls your interested in?" She questions. My mom looks up at me. The look on her face said something like 'You didn't tell them, your gay?' Or 'why do they not know.'

  I have No clue why they would'nt know, its all over social media. And social media is basically Molly and Laura's life.

  I just smile at her. "Lots." I answered her question. I saw Jack mentally sigh in relief. Everyone continues on with their conversations.

After dinner Jack's mom brings out some chocolate cake foe dessert. "So, you boys ready to go back to school tomorrow?" Jack's Mom asks as she sat a piece of cake on the plate in front of me. "Yeah, can't wait." Jack jokes. Everyone laughs.

"What about you Jack excited to go back to school." She asks. "I guess." I say. "I know Jack excited to see that girl he's been texting." She says.

Girl?

"Mom.." Jack groaned. He cheeks painted with a light blush. She laughs. I roll my eyes.

"Did you guys cheak online to see the classes you got?" Molly asks. I shrug. "I'm just gonna wait for when they give us our schedule tomorrow." I say.

  "I hope we have some of the same classes." Jack says. I look up at him.

  I feel my blood starts to boil as he says that. You lieing ASSHOLE!

  I stand up and slam my hands on the table. "SHUT THE HELL UP JACK!" I yell. My mom gasps at my sudden out brust.

"You lieing piece of shit! Shut the hell up! And stop lieing! Just tell your family the true!" I yell.

  He looks at me weird almost like a pleading look. "If you won't tell them then I will. I'm gay! And Jack and I aren't friends anymore cause he's not okay with that." I say. Jack's Mom facial expression changes from shocked to sad.

"I don't know why he didn't just tell you that, to spare me this entire night of lies and awkwardness." I admit. Everyone looks shocked but yet they stay quiet.

  I shake my head and walk out the door. I ignore my mom calling my name. I walk home and straight up to my room.

  I collapse on my bed and put my face in my pillow. I then scream into my pillow. It oddly made me feel better.

  I shake my head, life isn't going the way I hoped it would. I feel like crying. Just as I was about to let it all out.

  I hear a knock on the door. "Go away mom." I say. Assuming it was her

"Its Jack." He says opening the door. I sit up and bring my knees to my chest. He closes the door behind him and takes a seat at the end of my bed.

"You okay?" He asks.

What a stupid question should'nt my out burst have answered that question already.

"No." I answer.

"Not that you'd care anways." I mumbled. Jack sighs. "JJ, Im sorry." He says.

"I didn't mean any of the thinks I said." He says looking at me. "Then why'd you say them?" I ask.

"I don't know." He looks at his fingers. "Whatever." I say. The room goes quiet.

  "I saw you didn't change our vine name." He says after a few moments of silence. "I couldnt bring myself to do it. Because if I did that would mean it was really over, that Jack and Jack was really over." I say.

  "I dont want that." I add as I pull my knees closer to my chest. "Me neither." He says. "Really?" I asks looking at him. He nods.

I wrap my arms around his neck and hug him. "I'm sorry." He whispers into my neck. "It's ok." I whisper back.

  He sighs pulling away. "Can I tell you a secret?" He asks. I nod. "Of course."

"The day I got back from DC, I came home. It was quiet so I didn't think anyone was there. But when I passed by my mom's office, I saw her kissing her assistant." He says. 

"Her girl assistant." He adds.

  "Oh... so is she gay?" I asks. He shrugs. "I don't know. That why I didn't want to tell her that I pushed you away because you were gay." He says.

"I didn't want her to think I was homophobic, and that she could never come out to me." He tells me. I nod understandingly. "I'm so sorry, I didn't know that was the reason." I say.

"Its not your fault. Its mine." He says. 

"I was a jerk to you. And Im sorry again." He says. I nod.

"And I do love and support you." He says. I love him too.

"Thanks." I say hugging him once more.
