13 Reasons Why - Alex Standall & Justin Foley *Completed*

Chapter 3

"That movie was amazing." Justin said throwing away the popcorn bucket. "The parts that we actually watched were." He laughed. We sat all the way in the back of the theater, and no one was in the theater. So must of my attention was on Justin, not the movie.

"Why does your dad like to be called sir?" I laid down, and he did the same laying his head on my chest. "He grew up that way, and his profession did not help with that." I laced my fingers with his and asked, "When did your mom start drugs?" "I don't know. Around when I was six or five. It wasn't bad at first, but it progressively got worse from there." I sighed. "I'm sorry." He slid his arms around my waist. "I wish we could just come out already." I smiled. "So do I. I'm just scared of what my dad will say. Have you told anyone that you also like girls?" He shook his head. "No, have you?" "Yeah, just Hannah. I trust her." 

I smiled remembering her reaction. "Oh, that's cool." She said smiling ear to ear. "You don't think I'm some kind of freak?" She laughed. "Alex, I've always thought you were a freak. Now you are just a gay freak." 

"Why don't you tell Zach? He'll understand." I asked. "What if he tells Jessica? I want to be the one to tell her." I tightened my arms around him. "Yeah, I know." "Alex?" He asked me. "Yes?" "I think I love you." I smiled and felt butterflies in my stomach. "Justin, I know I love you." He held me closer to his chest, and we slowly fell asleep.
