I was speechless, but not angry. Of course I wasn't angry. How could I be angry with Callum? 

"The thing is, my parents are anti-gay, so they.... don't know. And I don't want them to know,"

I gazed into his eyes. They were extremely sad, unlike a face I had ever seen him put on before. My heart beat extremely fast. 

"I'm sorry," I have him a large embrace, and he smiled a bit. I looked at him, his bright blue eyes, and a pit grew in my stomach. He got closer, and I did as well. I grabbed his hip, and almost instinctively, locked my lips with his. 

Manny's POV

I was glad to get away from my brother. I was absolutely always in his shadow. My parents were always comparing him to me. 

"You made the football team? Tobi did that AND was a starter when he just got into Secondary. Manny you should do that."

"You got an A star? Tobi got three."

"Tobi is aspiring to be a Premier League athlete. What do you want to do, Manny?

He didn't even realize how blessed he was. That bothered me as well. So modest and smart. 

Charles was extremely nice, and in my grade. We passed a ball back and forth pointlessly. It was much better than hanging around with Tobi's friends.

I rolled my eyes, "that's cool." 

Charles saw his other football friend, who had made the team, Hastings, and he turned to talk to him. I watched Simon and Cal talk. Callum looked at the ground, extremely nervous. Simon stared at him. I was guessing it was a shocked look, but I couldn't see close enough. Then, out of nowhere, Simon grabbed him at the waist. Cal got close to him and reached in. I couldn't believe it. Simon's lips feel into Cal's. They stayed there for almost ten seconds.

Simon's POV

I was elated and scared at the same time. We let go, and I took his hand. I turned away, and saw Manny in the field, staring straight at us in shock and disgust. I pull my hand away from his. He looked at me sadly.

"I'm.. I'm sorry. I have to go," I mumble numbly and run.

I run, and run, and run, and run....
