FALLING // Jylan // Brikey

"Being Me."

It's freaky Friday I'm in Chris Browns body
(The day before school)

Mikey's POV

Ever since that party, which I don't think anybody remembered because we were all drunk off our asses. I've learned to find myself, become myself, I even came out to my parents. I think they always knew because after I was done they just came up to me, hugged me, and said I love you. That was it. I was still experiencing new things, new parts of me that were unheard of. That I would have never even thought about.

Ever since I came out I felt more confident, but my brain is telling me I'm insecure. My heart is saying that I'm brave, but sometimes I feel weak and vulnerable. Mixed emotions is all part of growing up right? Or is it telling me I'm not who I want to be?

I have so many opportunities ahead of me that my mind is going haywire. I don't know what to think anymore. But then I have my crush, who makes me happy and so self-assured. He can make me smile and cry. He makes me feel all these butterflies in my stomach. He's the one who taught me who I am. I'm bisexual or am I? I could be more, but for now I'm just going to be me.

Thanksgiving vacation was supposed to be over tomorrow and I had to go back to school. I wasn't ready. How do I even tell people my sexuality, do I just come out and say it, or do I wait for the right time? I just know tomorrow is going to be super stressful.

I hear the doorbell to my house ring and walk downstairs to see who it is. As I open the door I'm attacked with a hug and immediately I knew that those were Bryce's arms wrapped around my torso. I put my head on his shoulder and stand up on my tippy toes to wrap my arms around his neck.

"We need to talk. It's been so long." Bryce says and I nod my head as I start walking up the stairs to my bedroom Bryce following along behind me. I opened the door and we went to sit down on my bed.

"So how has everything been going with you know?" He asked fiddling with his hands.

"I told my parents, they excepted me, but I'm scared to go to school tomorrow." I said in a soft voice.

"I have something to confess." My eyes opened wide, what the hell? Is he bisexual too? Or does he like me? Or what?

"Ok" I say, and turn to face him. I see his eyes get watery as he starts to speak and he is biting on his lip as if he doesn't want to tell me.

"I slept with Jackson." He said and my jaw dropped. What the fuck.

"Do you like Jackson?" I asked cause this is so weird.

"No. I just once you came out to me I started questioning my own sexuality and I didn't know what to do. I wanted to know if I could be attracted to guys sexually and not just their personality. So after that I realized I'm bisexual. And me and Jackson won't date because... I already like someone else. I just didn't want to hurt their feelings if I ended up not liking them like that." He said and I swallowed the large gulp I was holding in my neck. Who could he be talking about, it's a guy, but who?

"Who do you like? He must be very special." I asked back.

Bryce hesitated for a bit, opening his mouth and closing it. Before he said something I never thought would come out of his mouth. "I like you." I was taken aback, I didn't know what to say. How could Bryce Hall actually like me?

"R-really?" I squeaked out. Bryce just nods his head slowly. "I-I like you too." I see Bryce's face go from a frown and turn into a smile as he and I both let out a huge breath that we've been holding in.
