"I'm uh, I'm straight, haha."
Matthew

The following morning, I had finally realized how truly beautiful Philadelphia was. Summer had just rolled in and it was quite humid, but still hot — Not scorching obviously, but a nice warm-toned, movie kind of summer.
Maybe it's just because we're finally headed back to Virginia is why I'm in such a good
mood, or maybe it's just because I slept on the right side of the bed for once, either ways I'm more than excited to see what the day is going to bring. Throwing my covers away from my body, I did a slight grunt (I blame myself for not being in shape) and lifted the top-half of my body up.
My eyes wandered around my room for a while, and I had soon developed chills. It was so weird to think that this room, this house, was my new home. I actually lived here. I wasn't down the street from Alena anymore.
Saying that in my mind actually made me cringe, Who even was I? Just a couple of weeks ago I was being so mean, I ignored Alena for days on end and made her feel like shit. I looked down at my hands and played with them, I'm such a fuck up.
I let out a deep breath, and breathed back in, rubbing my hands over my face. Cmon Matthew, now's not the time to be thinking about this. Alena's back at home, probably sitting in your old room just chilling, and you're over here being totally ridiculous. I laughed at the thought, she's probably laying down staring at the ceiling and pretending that I was there.
I got up from my bed and stretched, finally read to begin the day. I got my bag that I had packed since we were going to Virginia, and threw it over my shoulder. Sure, I had no top on, but I don't think it should matter. I walked over to my door and opened it, wondering why it was so quiet in my house. I slowly crept down the stairs and outside the house, walking over to the car and opening the back doors.
After putting my bag in the backseat securely, I hear a very prominent wolf whistle from the back of me. My eyebrows furrow and I quickly turn around, lifting my pajama pants up. What the fuck?
A guy probably around my age stood there, viewing me as if I was some sort of object. I lift my head up, being weirded out by this guy, do I look like I'm fucking gay?
"Can I help you?" I asked, being totally disgusted with this guy. There's nothing wrong with being gay, but don't stare at me like I'm the last piece of cake to get my damn attention.
"Oh no baby, I came over here to talk to you, so can I help you?" He spoke, walking over to me while swaying his hips. I couldn't help but cringe, what the fuck is going on. I tried to throw off the strongest vibe I could, I'm straight!! My parent's are straight! Once he finds out he's going to be so disgusted with me and probably call me a sinner, so I'd rather avoid that type of conversation.
"Um, I don't know?" I spoke lowly, purposely making my voice more masculine.
"Oo, tough guy huh? I like tough," The guy spoke, licking his lips as he spoke.
"I'm uh, I'm straight, haha," I laughed awkwardly, closing the car door. I looked to see his reaction and he rolled his eyes.
"Son of a bitch, first straight guy I meet is actually the hottest boy in town, that sucks," He groaned almost, but shrugged. "Well, it's nice to meet you straight boy, you got a name?"
"Matthew?" I almost asked, forgetting my own name. This whole situation was tripping me out.
"Nice to meet you Matthew, I'm Alan," He shook my hand. Wow; he actually shook my hand. Does he not know what straight means? Why isn't he running?
"Don't act so shocked, you'll be surprised to find out that not everyone in this world are pricks," Alan laughed, motioning me to sit down with him on the grass.
"Well, you gonna sit down?" Alan asked.
What the fuck is going on?
