"Hey, I have to tell you both something." Aurora said, smoke curling out of her mouth as she spoke and off of the joint she was holding in her hand. She handed it back over to Parker who took a drag nodding for her to go ahead. "We're going to be a flight crew together until we graduate and hopefully beyond that so I don't want there to be secrets between us."
"You going to tell us about who your dad is?" Keith asked. Aurora grinned.
"No. I'll leave that secret for later. This one's a little bigger." Aurora paused. "And I'm hoping it doesn't change anything."
"It probably won't." Parker said, passing the joint to Keith who was still a little skeptical about smoking. Aurora wrinkled her nose at him. "As long as you don't say you have a foot fetish, I'll be fine." Aurora snickered and Keith rolled his eyes as he put the joint to his lips.
"Okay, okay I'll just say it." Aurora said, taking a deep breath. The wind blew past them lightly, blowing back her light blue hair as her friends waited. "I'm bisexual. My first kiss was actually with a girl back at the Seattle Garrison when I was fourteen." Parker whistled lowly. Keith's jaw nearly drop.
"Fourteen? I didn't have my first kiss until I was fifteen, right on." He said holding out his hand for a high five. Aurora laughed, relieved they weren't reacting harshly as she gave him his high-five.
"Yeah. I had liked her for a while but I couldn't tell if it was as more than friends or something and I didn't even know kissing girls was an option until I actually kissed her." Keith's hands shook a little. Nobody had ever come out in front of him before. Coming out to Shiro and Adam had been hard enough but Aurora acted like it was no big deal right now. Was she freaking out on the inside like he had? Was her stomach churning something fierce? Did she feel like throwing up?
"And how was it? She kiss you back or punch you in the face." Parker asked with a laugh.
"She kissed me back!" Aurora exclaimed happily. "And we did a little more than kiss actually." Parker let out a whoop.
"Damn Del a Cruz! You get to second base with her?" Aurora shrugged, laughing as she took the joint back from Keith.
"I never understood the 'bases' reference but maybe? If having some of your clothes off counts as second base." Aurora shook her head, taking a hit off the joint.
"Man, I'm getting goosebumps." Parker said. Aurora hit him.
"Shut up you pervert."
"I'm kidding!" Parker said with a laugh as he took the joint from her. Aurora looked over to Keith who hadn't moved much or said anything since she had admitted that she liked girls and boys.
"You okay Keith?" Aurora asked, feeling like she was holding her breath. He looked up at her with big eyes, a bewildered look on his face.
"What? Oh yeah, I'm fine." Keith stammered out. "I'm just taking it in. That's honestly not what I thought you would say." Aurora felt her chest tighten with fear. "But I'm glad you told us. I'm happy you trust us with this." Aurora exhaled and smiled gratefully.
"Of course I trust you idiots." Aurora said with a laugh. "You guys are my best friends here and I couldn't ask for a better flight crew to be a part of."
"Oh stop with the mushy. Weed always makes you so emotional Aurora." Parker said, rolling his eyes.
"Shut up and hug me okay?" Aurora said, standing and holding her arms out wide. Keith laughed and stood up immediately. Parker just continued to shake his head at them.
"It's getting to you too isn't it Keith." Parker said with a grin. "What the fuck kind of weed did I buy? Emotional Weed? I didn't know they made that kind of a strain." Parker said, taking another long drag.
