Twenty-three; Fight

Well you only need
•
•
The light when it's
•
•
Burning low
•
•
Only miss the sun
•
•
When it's stars to snow
•
•
Only know you loved him
•
•
When you let him go

When you're young you believe that in order to be part of society, you must fake who you are to be accepted. Coming out to people could be a difficult thing, not because of what you're sexuality is, because of what people will think about you. You will always hold yourself back from being your true self because of fear that people will judge you, fear that people will see you different, and come on we all know being different isn't a good thing.

You must know that accepting yourself for who you are should never be a problem, love yourself, embrace who you truly are. Don't lie to yourself because in the end the truth will always come out. Whether people accept you or not, you must always walk with your head held high, be proud of who you are. Never let people tell you different, embrace, accept, and love yourself.

Opening my eyes, I glanced at the clock to see it was 6:45am, groaning I rubbed my eyes as I stretched, I glanced over to see Jake peacefully sleeping, his mouth was slightly opening as small snores escaped his lips, smiling to myself I got up from the bed as quiet as possible. Not wanting to ruin his sleep I opened my door softly before making my way downstairs, finding my father already awake and making breakfast.

"Morning Pop's"

"Morning sunshine"

Serving myself a cup of juice, I sat down on a stool, "how'd you sleep?"

"I slept alright, hows Jake?"

Taking a sip of my juice, I watched as my father cook eggs and bacon, "we talked last night about what happened, he seemed so scared and broken". My father served himself a cup of coffee, "well you know sunshine I'm no expert when it comes to emotions and stuff but sometimes we have to experience things in order to grow, sometimes we have to get broken in order for us to be able to fix ourselves again", I simply nodded as I finished my juice.

"Well I'm gonna go wake him up to get ready for school"

"Oh by the way Marie brought him so new clothes for him to wear", I gave my father a smile before grabbing the bag that Marie brought and walking upstairs. Walking into my room I found Jake stretching as he sat on my bed, "Morning Jake", he gave me a closed smile as I threw him the bag, "change and get ready, dad made breakfast, we leave in thirty minutes", he gave me a nod as I grabbed my clothes and walking to the bathroom to change.

As my Pop's dropped us off at school, I gave Jake's hand a small squeeze, he glanced over at me, giving me a closed smile before we walked into school. I noticed how Jake kept his head down as we walked by a group of people, they all just kept whispering until I send them a glare they all pretended to look somewhere else, giving myself a mental pat on the back.

As we reached my locker I noticed Harrison leaning against it, I saw Jake's body tense beside me, anger rushed through my veins as Jake and I walked to my locker. Harrison looked up from his phone as he glanced between Jake and I, "may I speak with you?" He looked at Jake then down to me, "alone?".
