⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀the next monday rolled around and i had already decided i would go through with the plan that caleb wanted me to do so desperately. i would try my hardest to get myself a boyfriend, i would be one of the only two guys in our school to be openly gay, and i would come out to my parents. one of those jobs had already been done, i told my parents on saturday and to my surprise they reacted quite well. told me they had a suspicion that i was into boys. how, i don't know. they definitely had a suspicion though.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀soon enough i arrived at the tall building that i called my school and walked inside. "hey, wolfhard" i heard from a tiny voice behind me, i turned around and smiled brightly when i saw the face of noah schnapp. "what's up, schnapp?" i asked casually. "not much, just wanted to talk. you have a minute?" he asked me. woah. noah schnapp wanted to talk to me? since when? ah, i guess i was being stupid. we had already talked multiple times. "finn?" he asked, trying to wake me up from my daydreams. "oh yeah, sure. let's go talk" i said before walking off with him somewhere a little quieter.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"so, what did you want to tell me?" i asked him as we reached the area right next to the stairs, somewhere people rarely ever hung around. "listen, i'm sick of us talking sometimes and then not taking anything farther. i want us to be more, wolfhard" he stated and i bit my lip softy, something i always did when confused. "you want us to be closer friends?" i asked him, hoping i misunderstood what he was trying to tell me.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"no, i want you and i want us" he stated and before he could say anything else i pressed my lips against his smaller ones. the kiss was short but it was sweet, one that i would never forget. "i want us as well, i want you." i stated after pulling away. he placed his hand in mine and laced our fingers together, and i knew from that moment that noah was meant to be mine.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀as the day went on all i could think about was noah, nothing new. in writing class ms. dyer wanted us to write about what made us different and i knew exactly what i would write about. i was different because most boys my age wanted perfect girls, girls that acted like sluts to get the guys that they wanted, girls like sadie sink. while i didn't want sadie or any other girl for that matter, i was different because i liked boys and i definitely liked noah schnapp.
