I rush to my locker, as I was late for class. I couldn't get my combination right. "Ugh", I say, frustrated. I hear footsteps come up behind me.

"Hey!", the voice says. I turn around and see...Tyler? "What do you want?", I ask," Are you here to beat me up?!" He shakes his head. "No! I-", I cut him off. "I don't care! Go away!", I say," I know you're probably going to insult me! I don't wanna hear it!" I turn back around to my locker and continue to try to open it. He spins me around and pushes me against the lockers.

"Look! I'm not afraid to beat you up!", he says," I just, need to tell you something...I-It's important!" He let's go of me and moves his hair from his face, revealing his bright green eyes. "Uhm...You know Kyle, right?", he asks. I nod. "Well uhm, he likes one of your friends...and he's just scared to admit that he's gay", he says," So, he makes fun of your friends for that reason..."Which one of my friends does he like?", I ask. "I dunno...I think his name is Alex or something like that", he says. I nod. I told Alex this yesterday at the park.

"Oh, uhm-", he cuts me off. "And also uhm...Andrew likes him too", he says," He told me this a few days ago." "Okay, but-", he cuts me off again. "A-Also, I like you too...", he says, blushing. "W-what?!", I say, shocked. He pushes me against the lockers again.

"You better not tell Kyle or Andrew or anyone else that I told you this!", he says," And you better not tell them that I have a crush on you either, or else I'll seriously hurt you!" "O-okay", I say. He punches my locker and it opens. "You're welcome", he says, walking away. I just stand in the middle of the hallway, questioning what just happened.

"Oh my god! Guys!", I say, rushing to the lunch table," You won't believe what happened to me earlier!" "Did you get hurt?", Denis asks. "No, no!", I say," Okay, so you guys know Tyler, right?" "Oh, you mean that ugly emo boy?", Alex asks. "Alex! That was mean", Sub says. Alex rolls his eyes and shrugs. "Sure, whatever", I say," Earlier he told me a few 'secrets'." "Ooo, spill the tea", Alex says. "Okay, but you have to promise to not confront them or tell anyone else!", I say. "We swear!", Elijah says. "Eh, depends on what it is", Alex says. "Alex...", I say. "Okay, okay, fine. I swear", he says.

"Okay, so he told me that Kyle and Andrew have a crush on Alex!", I say. Alex's eyes widen. "WHAT?!", he yells. A few people stare at us. "Don't be so loud!", Elijah says. "What the fuck! Are you serious?!", Alex asks," You're lying! No way!" "Watch your language!", Sub says. "Whatever!", he says," He has to be lying!" I shake my head. "Remember I told you yesterday that some people will bully you because they like you?", I ask. "No! No! No! No!", he says," There's no way that they like me! Do you know how bad they ruined my self-esteem?! Especially Kyle! I've learned to toughen up over the years but some if his words still hurt, you know..." He crosses his arms.

"Besides, I hate them, and I've already said that I would never date them...", he says," I like Garrett and Garrett only! He is my bae!" Denis laughs a little and Sub rolls his eyes. "To be honest, I wouldn't date them either", Elijah says," I mean, why would you after all that torture they did to you?" "I agree! Just imagine what the relationship would be like!", Sub exclaims. "I mean...people can change, guys...", Denis says. "Pfft, not in my world", Alex says. I put my hand on Alex's shoulder.

"Well, if it makes you feel any better", I start," Tyler confessed to me saying he likes me...." Alex giggles a little, and Denis' head perks up. "What?!", he says," Did you just say what I thought you said?" "Ooo, someone's getting jealous!", Elijah teases. Denis starts blushing. "No, No! I was just...", he trails off with is sentence. "That's what I thought!", Elijah says, smirking. "Well then, Braden, do you like Tyler?", Sub asks. I nearly chock on my food.

"Ew! No! Of course not", I say. "Hmm...then do you have a crush on anyone?", Alex asks. "I mean...I have someone in mind...", I say, blushing. "Ooo, tell us!", Sub says. "N-no! No...", I say. "Aww, why not?", Elijah asks. "Just...no..", I say, dismissing the conversation.

"Oof, see you guys tomorrow", Denis says. We all go to our classes.

"Uhm, Braden?", Denis asks. "Yes?", I answer. "Uhm, I know that you're dad kicked you out and all of that but do you think you could possibly stay home? Just for like a day or two", he asks. "Why?", I ask. My heart starts beating faster.

"Because of moving and stuff", he says. "I mean maybe...", I say, shrugging", Also, have you convinced your dad yet?" "Eh, still working on it", he says," It's working...I think." I giggle. "Okay, well, I should probably head home then", I say. "Wait! Can I walk you home?", he asks, bashfully. "Sure", I say.

We hold hands and start walking down the street. It was very cold, and the ground was kind of icy. "Braden?", Denis says. "Yes?", I answer. "Let's say, hypothetically, that...Tyler asked you out", he says," Would you say yes?" "Uhm...no", I say," Of course not!" "A-are you sure?", he asks. "Positive!", I say. He seemed a little scared.

We arrive at my doorstep. "Welp, here we are", he says. "Bye", I say, waving. He walks back home. I take a deep breath and knock on the door. No answer. I knock again. Still no answer. I start getting a little frustrated because it is very cold outside, so I start ringing the doorbell until someone comes to the door.

"ANDREW! GET THE DOOR!", I hear from inside the house. A few moments after, the door opens. "Hey, bro!", Andrew greets. "Hey...", I say. I know it's only been a few days but, it feels like forever since I last saw him. I walk inside the house and sneak upstairs into my room. I close and lock my door. Hopefully no one saw me, especially my dad. I lay down on my bed and soon, I fall asleep.
