Best Friends and More (BoyxBoy)

Chapter 7

Chapter 7

I sat in my room nervous as hell, I was getting ready to walk out and tell my mom that I was getting suspended from school, I was caught having sex in the locker room, and I was in a relationship with a guy. I just hope I don't give her a heart attack or a stroke with all this information.

I walked into the kitchen, my mom was standing at the stove cooking and dancing to the radio she had playing, I was so happy to see she was in a good mood. Just going by her mood I knew my dad wasn't home. He always had all of us so uptight and nervous we rarely ever could be ourselves with him around. I sat down and watched her sing and dance she is so bonkers how did she end up with crazy marine guy. But her mood and my dad's absence was going to make my news easier.

I walked over and kissed her on her cheek, “Good morning, Mom” I said as I grabbed some bacon off a plate.

She reached over and hugged me, “I'm surprised you're here, you've been spending so much time with your friends, I hardly ever get to see you anymore.” she cocked her head at me and smiled.

“I'm sorry about that.” I apologized not realizing my mom actually was missing me. But she probably would be happy to know my absence was caused because I was falling in love with my best friend. “Well, Mom” I paused as I thought about my next words. “I think I am falling in love.” I mumbled.

“Really Martin” she screeched. She seemed happy that I just told her, her teenage son was giving his heart away. “Is it Tonya? She's so cute and the two of you seem so perfect together.”

I swallowed hard hoping she would take the who part as easy as she was taking the what. “Mom it's not Tonya, we broke up almost two months ago. But I'm with someone I've known for years, just didn't know I had these types of feelings for until recently.” I told her still afraid to just come out and say I was with Darrell.

“Charlotte?” She asked, “I never considered her your type, but is it Charlotte?” she asked again slightly frowning.

“No Mom, not Charlotte. You would never guess this one.”

“Ok, this is someone you must have been hiding from us. Is she cute, nice, when do I get to meet her?” She questioned me.

“Well, you've already met the person I am dating, and yes they are nice and extremely cute or should I say he is handsome.” I admitted and sat and waited for her reaction.

My mom turned and looked at me strangely, her eyebrows lowered, I could tell she was confused. “He is handsome?” She repeated my words turning them into a question.

I nodded my head in agreement, letting her know she heard my words correctly. She took a seat in front of me at the kitchen table. Though I wasn't sure I believe she was in shock. “Mom” I softly called her. She raised a hand in the air signaling for me to give her a minute.

“So, you are seeing a guy?” She questioned me. She now was staring in my eyes as if she were searching for the truth in them.

“Yes.” I answered.

“You said I know him, who is it?” She calmly asked.

I sighed, “Darrell Nash” I told her.

Her eyes opened wide, “Darrell” she pointed out the window towards Darrell's house. “You and Darrell are in a relationship?” she asked slightly raising her voice showing she was surprised.

“Yes we are.” I nervously replied.

“Wow, Martin, I never would have thought you would experiment with a guy, and Darrell, Mr Macho himself. Wow, definitely didn't see this one coming.” She rubbed her hands through her hair and sat almost frozen in shock.
