Unknown Narrator:
Everyone was sitting in the hallway right beside James's room. They were all praying for some good news. It had been three days and he was still in a coma. Everyone sat around in a circle and shared stories about him.
"He was a terrible soccer player," Evelyn said laughing.
"Give him a break, he just wanted to make some friends. He was such a nerd!"l Lewis pointed out. Everyone agreed shaking their head yes. James held a special place in all of our hearts, what would we do without him, I hope we don't find out.
A nurse came out of James's room. We looked up at her. "I'm sorry," she started. "Barney is dead." everyone had a confused face.
"I will just say it, who the hell is Barney?" Evelyn said.
"My boyfriend, that's who the hell it is," James said
"Oh, and James woke up," the nurse said
"James, we are sorry we had no idea." Isabella said.
"We also had no idea that you're gay," Evelyn said.
"It was just something that happened," James said and with that he told us the story.
JAMES IS NOW THE NARRATOR
It was four months ago. I met him at honor band. He was from a nearby school, but his house was close enough that I could visit often. He was the type of person who hung out with the so called weird kids. I was too so I can't judge. He was tall, had black hair the was combed to the side. He had blue eyes, ocean blue eyes. He was the kind of person you could talk to for hours and when I said hello that's exactly what we did. Barney told me he was gay and that freaks out most guys so he wanted me to know up front. I didn't mind. I didn't really think I was straight but when I met him I knew for certain, I wasn't. I was falling, hard.
We knew each other for a month before he asked me out. I said yes, obviously. Life was good. On the days we didn't see each other, we would snap or facetime. I didn't tell anyone about him though. No one besides him knew about me being gay. It's not that I was ashamed or anything but he was my secret. He was mine all mine.
It was our three month anniversary, I planned it all out. We would start at the park. Barney once told me that the park was his favorite place. We would go down to the river then into the forested area. No one else would've been there to bother us. We never made it there though. I swerved, lost control. Now he's gone. He was the best thing in my life and now he's gone and it's because of me. It should've been me, not him.
BACK TO UNKNOWN NARRATOR
James started crying, we were all speechless. He is going through hell right now and we don't know what to do.
