I sit through all my classes, bored out of my mind. I watch the teacher write on the board about algebra, when suddenly my phone dings. I look down into my open bag, Skylar messaged me. I bend down and pick it out of my bag and open the text.

"Go to the bathroom, I want talk to you." It read.

"Alright." I reply, then raise my hand.

"Ah, yes. Kayla?" Mr. Opalin asked.

"Um, may I go to the bathroom?" I ask, nervously.

"Oh yes, get a pass please." He said, pointed to the bin of bathroom passes. I walk over and grab one a rush to the 9th grade bathroom. I walk in and shut the door quietly.

"Hey..Crystal's been totally blowin' up my phone ever since our dare kiss." Skylar says, approaching.

"Seriously? Jeez.. I dont want her to be suspicious. What do we do?" I ask, scratching my neck in stress.

"Well, if they ask us if we're more than friends, we've got to deny everything." Skylar suggested.

"Well...yeah.." I say. Skylar gets closer to me and puts her hand on my cheek and kisses me.

"We better get to class." She continued. We both walked back to class. We gotta keep this all under wraps, I shouldve said no to kissing her, what if this rumor spreads so far that our family finds out? My mom would kick me out, I know it. You may think "Oh, you're exaggerating so much, your mom loves you." Well, you dont know my mom. God comes first in her eyes, and in the bible, homosexuality is terrible and will apparently, "Will banish me to hell", it's just all stupid and if there really is a god up in the clouds, I'm sure just because someone loves their same sex, he wouldn't care, he'd love us no matter what. I like Skylar, my mom can't stop me from letting my feelings finally bleed through this biased society. If she does find out..and does send me away..I'd be mortified. I'd be so lost, my mind would abandon me and adrenaline would take over. I can't let her know, I can't!

I eventually get back to my class and shuffle to my desk.

"Welcome back." My friend, Nathan, whispered to me.

"Oh hey." I smile back.

"How've ya been?" He asked, writing down some notes.

"Overall? Fine.. Just everything's flying at me at once." I sigh.

"That's just how highschool is, it's treacherous at first. I'm sure it gets better...yikes...I hope at least." He chuckles.

"Hah...same." I chuckle with him. Just then the bell rang to go home.

"Wait, before you go, I just wanted to ask..Leo told the basketball team Skylar and you...kissed. Is that right?" Nathan asked, tilting his head.

"Um..." I am at a loss for words, c'mon you kissed her, own it...no he can't even think that we're dating.. What do I do?

"Ya know what, forget it..see you tomorrow." He says, leaving the room. God, I really messed up now.
