Hello author here. I should mention that these are almost short stories? Like there isn't an official plot. It kinda just shows a day of them? They still show the progress the relationship growing. But they're at different times and stuff. Does that make sense?! Idk I'm awful at explaining lol. Also if you don't know what a gobstopper is, please google lol.

I considered I might not exactly be straight when I was 11. I had a best friend who I really wanted to kiss. I never did, but it made me realise that the feelings I had towards her weren't just the mutual feelings of two best friends.

Skip to when I was fourteen. Year ten of secondary school. Freshly dumped. I found comfort in another best friend, not the sexual kind though. Just soft hugs and gentle kisses. I realised I was almost certain I liked girls the night of my break up. Except I liked boys too. So maybe the girl thing was just a phase?

Skip to year eleven of secondary school. I was sixteen. I was attracted to both a boy and a girl in the same year. Maybe I was just curious?

Skip to when I was eighteen. I found out about bisexuality and considered I might be it. But the girl thing still might be a phase.

Skip to now, where I'm sitting across from a gorgeous girl with bubblegum pink hair and an amazing smile. This is where I find out I'm definitely attracted to girls. Especially this girl.

We've been talking for a month now. Not relationship wise, just friends. And that's perfect for me.

'Do you think plants have feelings?' Bubblegum asked. I snapped out of my thoughts and looked over to see her staring at me. Her sooty black eyes staring deeply into mine. She held a completely serious face.

'Yes. They have to because they're a living thing right? Every living thing has feeling. Every living thing have feelings.' I took a sip out of my hot chocolate. It was nice, but she probably tasted nicer. I choked on my drink at my own perverted thought.

'Oh shit are you okay? Do you need a napkin?' Bubblegum asked, standing up rapidly and already walking towards the napkins. I got a nice view of her ass. Fuck why am I being so perverted?!

I thanked her as she sat down, handing me a napkin in the process.

'You know something, candy floss? You're the quietest person I've ever talked to.' Bubblegum and I had abandoned the coffee shop about two hours ago and were just mindlessly walking around town, our hands so close I could hold hers in a second if I wanted.

'Funny story about that actually, I used to talk a lot. My family got sick of it I guess and my dad told me if I didn't shut up he'd shut me up by cramming a gobstopper in my mouth permanently. Ten year old me was gullible haha. I shut up for good after that.'  Maybe my voice caught or something, because Bubblegum gave a small sympathetic smile, before opening her mouth.

'I don't want you to shut up, candy floss. I like your voice.' She reached for my hand and gently grasped it.

I officially felt my heart explode.

Yeah, I definitely liked this girl.
