*Trigger warning* old me was so dramatic lmao - future me

"I'm gay." I whispered.
"Oh Alex!" Denis hugged me tighter. I feel tears running down my cheek.
"We love you for who you are, Alex." Corl said.
"We will always accept you!" Sketch said.
"We love you!" Denis whispered. I felt so happy . I smiled. I closed my eyes. When I opened them I realized that I never confessed. I had imagined it... well great. I said it again.
"I'm g-gay." They all pulled away at once.
"Ew"
"C'mon are you joking?"
"Ugh that's disgusting."
I closed my eyes to stop the tears from coming out. When I opened them I was still hugging them, still haven't said a word. I pulled away.
"I'm going to take a walk." I said fake smiling.
"Ok Alex!" Sketch exclaimed. I slipped on my shoes and walk out the door. I head to the park. The crisp wind helped calm my soul. The leaves crunched under my shoes. I see a small silver object hidden under the leaves. I pick it up. It was a blade. I stuffed it in my pocket... no one cares anyway. I looked around. No one was here. It was just me, all alone. I slipped the blade out of my pocket. My heart hurt. My head hurt. My everything hurt. Just once... I pressed the blade against my skin... then took it off again... I can't do it... my heart hurt more. I just got more and more depressed until...
"Alex! No!" I hear Corl yell as he runs towards me. I turn around to face him, fear in my eye. I quickly try and hide the blade in my pocket but it falls out. I try and pick it up but Corls too fast. He grabs it.
"This isn't the answer! Trust me!" He yells. "I've been there before! It does nothing!" He rolled up his sleeves. At first I saw nothing. I looked closer and saw small scars.
"Y-you? W-why d-didn't y-you-" I stutter, shocked.
"Only Denis knew... I was too ashamed to tell anyone.. he found out by accident." Corl looked at the ground.
"Let's go home."
