Thanks so much for all the votes and comments! Hopefully we can get this chapter to 20 votes X3 

I'm really happy right now because my first story on here got 1,000 votes! I'd be really awesome if maybe that could be the goal for this story! I'm not sure how many chapters there will be but I think we can do it!!

Chapter Eight: The Big Bad Wolf

If there's one thing I've always been afraid to do it'd be speaking up in large groups. I've always been a bit shy and quite so the fact that I have to make myself loud for a bunch of people has me shaking in my socks. I hate how schools force you to speak in front of people-when it clearly terrifies you-but when someone breaks something they’re not forced to join in, in PE. Do schools think they can just cure or shyness by making us speak up? If that worked I'd be a social butterfly.

But my current predicament isn't school related, nor does it involve a large group.

You see just a few minutes ago I was studying for this big exam I have coming up, studying hard too! Then out of nowhere Rick bursts into our dorm, his face red with anger. He tells me he's sick of all the "fags hitting on him". Trying to be a 'good' roommate I listen to his story.

Apparently this kid named Wes, who's openly gay, accidentally ran into Rick into the hallway. Rick tells me that the kid purposely ran into him as a way of hitting on him or something.

The pompous asshole thinks everyone wants to be with him.

Now the problem is, is that he wants my opinion on what he should do to get the "fags" off his back.

What the hell am I supposed to say? He'd probably disagree if I were to suggest that maybe he was wrong about Wes trying to hit on him. I may be scared to tell him I happen to be gay but I'm not about to let him think he's right. Rick isn't a very nice guy; I don't see why anyone would like him.

"I uh," I chew on my lip, "maybe you should just ignore it?" I mentally let out a sigh of relief as the words finally come out.

"I don't want no fags liking me." He's quick to grow angry again.

"I feel like if they knew you were straight they'd know not to." Of course Reed didn't take this into consideration. He hit on me hard as I battled with my feelings. I guess I can be grateful that he helped me discover my true self, and he'd always made me laugh.

Eh, let's not think about him.

"They're trying to wipe their fag off on me. Convert me to one of them."

I resist the urge to roll my eyes at his stupidity. "Just don't pay attention to them. They can't make you do anything you don't want."

Hopefully now he'll see the light and this conversation will end. I feel really uncomfortable talking to him about this.

"Yeah but I don't want them trying anything." He grumbles. I sigh and straighten up in my chair.

"Then don't go near them."

"They shouldn't come near me."

I'm getting annoyed by how rude Rick's acting. "Listen they're people too you know, they have the freedom to do as they please! Is it wrong for them to do something you clearly don't like, yes! But if they're not hurting you leave them alone!"

He blinks.

"Not everyone wants you Rick. You're not going to catch the 'fag' if you're in the same room as someone who likes the same gender. Just leave them alone." I take a few deep breaths. Rick stats silent.
