"Duck, duck, duck, duck, duck goose!" I yelled. He jumped up and chased me around the room. I fell onto the couch and he flew on after me.

"Fuck I wish I was a kid agin." Joey said partly out of breath.

"Trust me, were still kids at heart." I smiled.

"That was so deep." Joey pretended to cry, whipping his eyes with his pretend tissues.

"Hey! The uploads finished!" I yelled looking at the '100% completed' bar pop up on screen.

We sat around the laptop and watched the final product. It really did look amazing. The cuts were perfectly in time, the sound effects made everything funnier and really it was the perfect first video.

"I love it!" I yelled, moving over and hugging joey. He sat there awkwardly first then hugged me back.

"It really looks good, you're a pro." He smiled pulling away.

"Well I better be going. I want to see sawyers face when he finds his bed sheets are pink." He chuckled.

"Well I really had fun, I'm so glad I met you." I smiled shyly.

"So did i, you really have made my eyes open." He stepped closer to me and lent in. His breath was was on my skin. He did a little side smirk then went in for a kiss. I moved my face just in time for his lips to kiss my cheek. Disappointment spread across his face.

"See ya." He pouted, he walked out the door like a little puppy. I shut the door behind him and practically pulled out my hair.

Why am I so fucking stupid! He tried to make a move but no, I have to make everything so fucking awkward. He probably thinks I hate him now when really he's the most perfect person I've ever met. Why did I hesitate.

That night I lay in my bed, thinking of the series of events of the last 2 days. I came to LA in search for new and attractive faces, I never expected friends. I had my laptop on my bed with me an I was scrolling through joeys youtube comments.

'Your so gay' 'were all waiting on your coming out story, just tell us already' 'don't even hide it anymore, its not cool.'

My eyes watered and a tear slipped down my cheek. Why do people have to urge to judge people they don't even know. Like back at school is a similar situation, no one new me, it was all rumours and no one actually made an effort to get to know me. Whey does everyone have to be so judgemental.

'Guys just shut up okay. Joey is joey. He can be who he wants to be and who he wants to be is perfect to me, maybe not to you. Why don't you get to know someone before you start calling them things.' I typed on the video.

I posted my little rage and shut down my laptop, putting it on my bedside table.

"This world is shit. Why do these things happen to us," Another tear fell, it stained my pillow. "Why?"
