Alex's pov

Oh. My. God.

Oh. My. Freaking. God!

What the hell is happening right now?

She just kissed me!

Why did she just kiss me?

I'm speechless and can't think of anything to say. I look at Quinn and she looks back at me awkwardly.

"W-why'd you do that?" I ask finally being able to spit something out. She thinks before she speaks and takes a breath.

"I'm bisexual. I thought showing you would be easier than telling you." She says and I'm completely confused.

How is kissing me showing she's bisexual? It's 2017 anyone can kiss anyone now a days without putting a "label" on it. Labels are stupid, like how can you describe someone with something? They literally could be the complete opposite of what you're wanting to label them as.

Not the time Alex!

"Plus I've had a thing for you ever since we started middle school." She says and my eyes widen.

"Oh... really?" I ask and she nods.

"Yep, you actually helped me realize that I also like girls and not just guys."

I literally don't know what to say. How do I respond to that? 'Hey no problem!' No, that'd be too weird. Right?

"I know this is a little bit to handle."

Yeah no shi-

"I honestly don't know why you were the first person I thought of to tell. I guess I just trust you." She says and I nod.

There's a silence that hangs over us until I ask her, "Why do you trust me? I mean I'm most positive you have trustworthy friends that you could've told."

"Believe me I've tried to tell all of my friends, but they either don't believe me or I chicken out."

"If your friends don't believe you, then you need new friends, just saying." I say and she nods.

"I completely agree, that's why I'm also here to talk to you. I didn't just want to confess and tell you I'm bi, I also wanted to apologize for everything I've done to you. I was the absolute worst friend to you and ditched you. I said I was your friend, but then I ditch you. That's a crappy friend move and I feel terrible about it." She apologizes and I'm hesitant if I want to forgive her.

"I completely get it if you don't want to be friends again, but could we at least be civil?" She asks and I sigh already knowing I'm going to regret this.

I nod with a small smile and she breaks out into a grin.

"Really?" I nod and she smiles grabbing me into a bone crushing hug, "you don't realize how happy this makes me." She says and I awkwardly hug her back.

I hear someone clear their throat behind us and she pulls away. I look behind me and see Jungkook with a raised eyebrow. I've told him my past with Quinn, so I can only imagine what he's thinking right now.

"Hi Jungkook." Quinn greets him and he sends her a small smile before putting all his attention on me.

"If you didn't know, I was supposed to tell you that Quinn was going to talk to you." He says and I laugh.

"You're a little late on the message there babe." I say and he reaches out for me. I walk and hug him. I remember Quinn is still there and move so I can see her.

"You two are so cute!" She exclaims and looks at her phone, "Oh! I have to go, bye Alex, bye Jungkook!" She says before quickly walking away.

"Did you forgive her?" Jungkook asks as we make our way out of the school through the double doors.

"I agreed to be civil with her." I say and he nods, "So I'm basically going to just keep an eye on her."

"Keep your friends close and enemies closer?" He asks and looks at me from the side and I nod.

"Exactly."
