School is hell for me. Classes are okay, but the people are all just rude smartasses. I have one friend, Adrian. He is really nice, but at times he'll get on my nerves. I haven't told him my secret yet. I plan to tell him soon.

When school starts, I head to my first class. Science. I hate science. But I sit next to a boy named Sam. He's sweet and funny, but I have no chance. One: he may not accept me for being trans. Two: He's probably not gay.

I never know how to talk to him outside of class. We are always paired together in class, which is pretty good for me. He smiles at me every morning.

"Good morning Brenna" He greets. I cringe.
"Good morning" My voice is small, but still audible. I sit down and get out my homework from last night.

After school, I see Adrian in the school yard. I run to him "hey, want to come over?"
"Yeah I guess" He replies. We walk to my house, and on the walk I take off my beanie and put it back in my bag, my hair falling back to my shoulders.

Today is the day to tell him the news.
