TRAPPED - Hamilstory

Chapter 1

(Oh and also they are only in like middle school so... :) )

Alex's POV

I was about to do it. I was actually going to come out of the closet to my friends today. I had to do it today! I promised myself I would at lunch. But sadly, our 3rd block  was ending in 2 minutes. That means lunch is next. I started sweating and I could hear my heart pounding.

The bell rung and I slowly got my things together. I looked at John from across the room. I have had a crush on him since the first time I laid eyes on him. But he'd never like me...That's what these marks on my arms are for. To show I'm just a "suicidal orphan". I'm told every day that my parents shipped me here to America because hey hated me and wanted nothing to do with me. Nice try, but I know what really happened to them.

When I walked to lunch and held my things tightly. John walked up beside me. "Hey Alex...I've been meaning to tell you something." he looked down. My heart rate went up. I bit my lip "What's up?". His voice kind of shook and I stared at my feet as I walked. Charles Lee bumped into me and I rolled my eyes.

"Just know that I really care about you and you are my best friend." he said so serious. Why was he being like this? I mean... I like it. But is he okay?

We got to lunch and sat down. I couldn't even eat. I never really eat anyway so I don't care. "Hey guys..." I spoke kind of loud to my friends Lafayette, Hercules, and John. "bonjour Alexander" Lafayette said. Hercules waved and took a bite of his sandwich. "I kind of have something to tell you all... but please don't hate me."

I played with my hands and looked down. I whispered as I spoke "I'm bisexual."

They all looked at me and nodded. "Okay. Is that all? You started to worry us." Hercules said with a laugh. I couldn't actually believe it! They still want to be my friends. This was going to be a great day.
