boy alone • m.c

chapter one.

i heard the front door slam shut and immediately my heart stopped, my blood started rushing through my body as the tension in my bedroom grew between me and my best friend, of 12 years, Luna. She slowly started to get up, grabbing my hand in the process pulling me out of my bedroom towards the stairs.

 "Luna i seriously cant do this im not ready to tell them please can we do it another day?" 

"bro your 17, if you don't tell them soon you will already have a boyfriend and imagine how much more awkward that would be. Please just do it, for me? 

"fine but if this goes wrong then im blaming you."

"nothing will go wrong, your parents are the nicest people I've ever met Michael." 

i stepped in front of Luna to lead us downstairs. It was fairly late but my parents had just got home from my nans 80th meal so i thought with them being in a good mood this would be a good time to tell them im gay. We reached the lounge doors where my parents were sitting. 

"i will wait out here, good luck mike." 

"ok thanks" 

i took a slow and steady step into the room and all four eyes beamed up at me, my nerves immediately kicked in and i desperately wanted to run out of the room back into my bed. 

"oh hi darling, wheres Luna gone?" questioned my mum

"oh er she is just upstairs, i really need to talk to you quickly is that ok?"

"of course, whats wrong?"

my mum and dad both turned all they're focus onto me, my mum with a concerned look and my dad quite a happy look. That definitely eased my nerves slightly so i just went in for it.

"ok so this has taken a lot of thinking and courage for me to be telling you so i thought i would tell you tonight, with some persuasion from Luna. Right I'm... I'm gay." 

at that moment it felt like so much weight was lifted off my shoulders, i couldn't tell if my parents were angry, shocked or happy but i was just proud of myself that i finally told them.

"i have to go." 

my mum shot out of her seat with her head in her hands. I turned to face my dad who had already got out of his seat running his fingers through his already messy hair while pacing round the lounge, i didn't know what to do. Did my parents hate me?

"dad..." i was cut of short by the quick response from him. 

"don't even try to talk to me Michael, how could you do this to me and your mother? we will never get the chance to be grandparents parents because of your decision to become gay.  If I'm being honest, i think you have made this ridiculous decision because it is seen as popular these days. Its your eighteenth in three weeks so you will be moving out then."

"what? you think im doing this because it is seen as cool! Im gay dad why cant you accept that i like boys?"

"say sorry to Luna about this, she has to leave now."

"wow i thought you would actually be accepting of me, but no you just want fucking grandchildren so you are kicking me out. thanks "dad"." 

"go to your room now Michael". 

i left the room and burst into tears, Luna was there to comfort me but only for a short while because she had to leave. 

"Michael oh my god this is all my fault im so sorry, you can come to stay at my house for as long as you want/"

"thank you but you need to go, i love you. call me later." 

i gave her a long hug but then Luna grabbed her blue denim rucksack from the bottom step and left. i felt so alone, so unloved. i was being kicked out of my "home" in three weeks, i had no idea where i was going to go. Its not like im popular at school, to be honest Luna is my onky real friend. Of course i have Luke but he is always so caught up in his girlfriend Alexa so theres no point trying with him, hopefully Luna's parents will be ok with me staying there for a little bit. 

"shit" i whispered as all these thoughts went through my mind, i need a job if I'm ever going to be living alone. I whipped my laptop off my black wooden desk and started to look for jobs in my area. I started to doze off to sleep and before you know it i was snoring away with my laptop in my face.
