My Boy (shyland)

Part 5

shane

I spent the next week thinking about that night. The party the crush, how he looked in the sunset, and most of all, how i think i have a crush on my best friend. And trying to deny it. I can't date a guy. Being gay is a sin. My mom would kick me out. It would be a disaster. I'll just stick to liking girls, even though my heart may say something else.

I think I'm in love. ever since Shane moved to town, everything has been different. He's been the only thing on my mind.

Whenever we touch, i feel sparks fly between us. I love looking into his eyes, even if they do freeze me up and turn me into stone. But.. there's a few problems. He doesn't know his sexuality. I think he was raised to think being gay was a sin, that loving the same gender was wrong. He's definitely ok with all of us being gay, but I'm not so sure he's ok with himself being gay. Maybe he just needs help figuring it out.

That night on the beach, i said i have a crush on someone in the group. it was evidently Shane. He is my best friend, and were getting closer and closer everyday. Joey has been trying to guess who my crush is for the past week. I keep saying that I'm not gonna say who it is, that would just make things weird between me and Shane. And besides, i wanna tell him on my own. But what if he doesn't like me back? Our friendship would just be ruined.

*the next day*

Ryland

I got in the car crying. My dad had just slapped me in the face. My perfect family, ruined. All because I finally came out to them. My dad had slapped me across the face and then pushed me onto the floor,

"i will not have a faggot in my house." he said fuming.

He pointed up the stairs and said, "Get the hell out of my house."

I ran up to my room sobbing. i threw everything into a suitcase. i got in my car and drove. just drove. I don't know where i'm going. It started raining.

I came across a bridge. i pulled over and took deep breaths. I went to the side,and without thinking i  stepped over the railing, and Jumped.
