"Charlotte... Charlotte..." "Oh, go away..." "Wake up..." "Leave me alone..." "Please wake up baby." "Leave me alone Matthew..." "Who the hell is Matthew? It's Cody." "Shit..." Slowly, I open my eyes. It was Cody. "Sorry, baby, I thought you were... I thought I was having a dream. I'm not usually woken up by someone talking to me. Um, why are you in my room?" I ask when I realize that's where we were. "You wanted me to sleep over, remember?" "Oh... I forgot..."


"I'm so nervous..." "Don't be, Charlotte. I'm here for you, I will help you if you get too mad or scared. Okay?" "Thank you, Cody." "But of course, darling," he grins. I plant a kiss on his cheek and walk in the classroom.


"Morning, Dean," I greet. "Good morning Charlotte, Cody." "How are you? Are you okay?" "I'm alright, thank you, Charlotte. What about you?" "Not too bad," I smile. "Um, you know, I really am sorry we couldn't... You get it, right?" "Of course. It was wrong of me. I'm sorry." "Matthew, it's really okay..."


I couldn't focus on class. I was more focused on the girls sitting beside me. They were talking about Dean quite fondly. I can't say I'm surprised, he's young, he's hot, He's smart. He's a package of sex appeal in a red ribbon and Harry Potter glasses. "He is sexy, okay? I'd so bang him," one said. "I wonder if he's good in bed," another spoke. "I bet he is," the first spoke in excitement or something similar. "Oh, you have no idea," I whispered with a grin.


"Morning Jay," I greet when he reaches the lunch table. He was out of it, he ran into the table. Something amazing or awful happened to him. To ever be called a good friend, I had to ask. If bad, I needed to offer help. "Everything okay?" "It's better than okay!" He shouts, attracting a few glares. "What happened?" "I got paired with Matty James on a photography project!" He shouted. "I'm so excited!" I roll my eyes jokingly and sigh. "Don't get ahead of yourself, it's just a project." "I know, but I get to go to his house! That has to mean something!" "If you say so." "Come on, I'm going to be talking to him and everything! You can't say that nothing will come from that."


"What's your big plan, Casa Nova?" Cody teases. "I'm going to woo him with my wit and attention to detail in photographs." "Yeah? And how are you going to speak to him?" "Oh, don't be mean," I giggle. "I can do it, I know I can," Jay speak in determination. "Good luck, Jay. You'll do great."


"Chara, I have to tell you something..." "What is it, Cody?" "Um... P-please don't think any less of me. Now, you know I hate keeping secrets, especially from you, but this is something more than normal secrets." "More than the fact you like me?" I giggle. "Um, kind of," he speaks shyly. "Really? Okay, you can tell me. I won't be mad or make fun of you or anything, you know me. I promise it's okay. Whatever it is you want to tell me is fine." "Are you sure?" "Promise." He sits a little farther away from me on the couch to face me. "And you promise to never tell anyone?" "Swear. Come on, it's okay." "Okay..." He sighs and breathes heavily a moment, before speaking quietly: "I like guys..." "You what?" "I-I'm not gay! I like girls, and I love you, but... I-I'm bi." He looks down in shame. "That's all?" He looks up in confusion. "Jay is gay! Of course it's okay." Finally, he grinned. "You're really okay with it? Oh, thank you, Charlotte..."


"So, if you like guys too, do you have any male crushes or you just know?" "Um... Y-yeah, there's one..." "Really? Who? Oh, don't tell me it's Dean!" "N-no, no, not him. Y-you liked him so much I don't think it's possible for me to like him anymore. No, it's just some random guy. I don't think you know him. He's just insanely cute and sweet." "But you're not going to cheat on me with him, right?" "Of course not, Chara. I love you too much."
