You guys, Look at James Above! Isn't he just the perfect guy for Grant?


*GRANTS POV*

I woke up the next morning and hopped out of bed.

Apparently, I was in a good mood. I'm never in a good mood in the morning.

I get dressed and head downstairs. My dad leaves the house before everyone gets up and my mom is always making breakfast by the time I get downstairs.

"Hey mom", I say kissing her cheek, "What's for breakfast?"

"I made french toast. Go sit, I need ti talk to you". She sounds serious so i take a seat and munch on my toast.

She finally sits down and crosses her arms on the table and stares at me intently.

"Grant, I need you to know that I will love you no matter what. Regardless of what your dad says, you are my son. I don't care if you wanted to be a fucking unicorn, I will always love you."

What she says shocks me and I almost choke on my toast.

"I know mom, I love you." I look at her knowing if I was to tell her that I am gay, she would love me no matter what.

"Okay, sweetie go to school. I won't be home when you get back. Your dad and I are going to California for a few weeks to visit his mother. Granny Anne is getting sick so he wants to see her." She says then gets up heading to the living room.

I love when they leave for weeks at a time. I get the whole house to myself and can invite anyone I want over.


I finally get to school and walk into first period. After everyone is here, I notice that the blondie isn't in the room.

I shrug my shoulders and lay my head on the desk. Really, I wish he was here so I could stare at the beautiful creature.


*JAMES POV*

I wake up and shiver. Why is my room so cold?

I open my eyes and see bright lights above me. Where am I?

I sit up and hear a gasp beside me.

Maya? What is she doing here?

"Maya, why are you at my house?" I ask, my voice barely coming out.

"Your house? James, we are not at your house." She says, sniffling.

I look over and god, she looks terrible. Her eyes are swollen and red; she looks like she hasn't slept in months.

"Where am I then?", I ask realizing that we are not in my house.

"At the hospital James... I'm so happy you're okay!", with that, she jumps on me and hugs me with tears pouring out of her eyes.

"Why am I at the hospital Maya?!" I ask, hoping I wasn't abducted by aliens or something.

"Why? WHY!? James! You tried to kill yourself! You jumped into that ice cold river knowing you can't swim!! Why did you do it?" She looks at me and I can feel the anger radiating off her.

Then I remember. I remember why I'm in the hospital. I remember what I did and what happened to me.

"I'm sorry." I say, not wanting to tell her or anyone for that matter, what really happened.

I lean back in the bed and a tear rolls down my face.

"Maya.... I'm not gay anymore. I'm straight." I say.

She sits up and looks at me confused, "What do you mean you're not gay? You can't just say you're no longer attracted to guys when we both know you are."

"Well, I don't want to be a fucking fag anymore! I hate fags and everyone else like them!" I scream making her flinch.

"Okay James. Either way you know I'm here for you." She says.

Yeah, she is always here for me. She's the perfect girl.

"Maya, will you help me? C-can you... kiss me?" I say looking at her with pleading eyes.

She looks at me shocked but leans forward.

She kisses me softly.

I grab her head and deepen the kiss.

I like this. This is who I am. I'm not gay.
