"Hey Zach what's up?" I questioned looking at a nervous Zach.

"H-Hey Jackie." He said hesitant.

"How are you?" I said a little worried.

"I'm good. Okay look I have to tell you something but you can't tell anyone." He said sternly.

"Okay?" I said as more of a question.

"Jackie, I'm- I'm gay." Zach said. I sat there in shock.

"Zach that's amazing!" I replied.

"Wait. What?" He said in tears.

"Yeah Zach that's amazing." I said.

"I thought you would judge me or yell at me." Zach said quietly over the phone.

"Are you fucking kidding? Why the hell would I do that? Zach, I love you no matter what you do. And I would never judge you for who you love. No matter if you wanted to be a fucking potato I'd love you. I mean, I'd be concerned but I'd love you." I said. He laughed.

"I love you Jackie." He said.

"I love you too baby face." I said.

"Seriously Jackie? You couldn't have just said Zach?" He said in a moody tone.

"Haha, nope." I sassily replied

"I'm hanging up."

"No! Wait! I'm sorry!" I yelled over the phone.

"I knew you were sorry!" He said over  the phone.

"Oh my god you're an ass." I said laughing.

"Well I gotta go the boys are about to come back."

"Okay. Wait! Have you told them?" I said. Zach shook his head. "Well I love you. Good luck love." I said smiling.

"Thanks. Love you. Bye." Zach said before hanging up. I said their in unbelief. I'm so happy he told me.

•the next morning•

"Get up you sleepy face!" My Mom sad shaking me.

"No I'm too tired. Five more minutes." I said sticking my face in a pillow.

"You said that an hour ago." My Mom said. I replied with a shrug and rolled over and pulled my blanket up.

"Fine go back to sleep. But you won't get any pancakes." She said.

"Pancakes?" I asked intrigued.

"Chocolate pancakes." My Mom said. I jumped out of bed and stood up.

"Pancakes bitches!" I said to myself as my mom already left my room.

I headed downstairs and immediately grabbed a mug and made coffee.

"Mom where's the milk?" I asked and turned around to face her dropping the hot coffee pot on the ground.

"What the hell is he doing here?" I asked in anger.

"Hey sweetie"
