Untying a knot (falling in love): MATURE CONTENT

E m i l y P a r k e r s

I'd met Millie when I was 13. I never really knew her that well till me and Caroline started inviting her more into our group projects.

I'd come to realisation of how understanding and supportive she was. She always listened to my rants and offered me advice. And over that period of time we grew closer and closer till we were just around eachother all the time, not minding one bit.

Any time we weren't around eachother it was just so boring and I'd miss her a lot. We found quite a bit in common. But it was also when my other friends including Caroline left me out and drifted from me.

I knew about Millie's parents, and they never really liked me in the first place. They tried so hard to keep an act till I came out, and after that they just weren't bothered and always had cut me dirty looks. They were homophobes and Millie wasn't afraid to admit it. They just didn't like lesbians at all.

This was also something people at secondary school used to give me a hard time about. I was lucky to have Millie by my side though. If I was ever criticised by anyone for being in the lgbtq+ community she'd always stand up for me. She got herself suspended for a couple days once when she got into a fight with Amelia, One of my old bitchy friends who left me out. She started cussing at me for being attracted to girls and called me "disgusting", Millie had warned her and told her to be quiet but she didn't listen so she punched Amelia square in the face, giving her a nose bleed which she deserved.

We decided to go to university together, where I was studying history and French, Millie on the other hand was studying history and a couple other things but also making her mind up weather she wanted to be a history teacher or a counsellor,  but she'd always had told me she would never be able to be a history teacher cause of how bad she was at it. Mr Blake, the young history always told her she's great at history, but there's room for improvement, she just lacked confidence a lot, she always had.

I think I could blame her parents for that, she was never free to do anything and nobody ever supported her properly. I'm glad that she had mr Blake.

Me? I don't know. I pretty much have no idea where I'm going with my future. I like watching Netflix, I love the series "black mirror" and also "stranger things" and a bunch of other ones. I pretty much sit around watching Netflix in my spare time, I also fucking love panic! At the disco. Brendon urie is my freaking sinful god and I'm so proud of myself for getting Millie into them when we were younger. She still is into them, unfortunately she stans Ariana grande more than anything, and probably more than anyone I ever knew who liked Ariana, that girls seriously obsessed. My room mates are Molly baxtor and Ella may. Molly is a year younger than us and is the makeup goddess. We all think she'll become a makeup artist One day.

When we were younger we had created a little group, Millie was the "hoe", I was the "whore" and Molly was the "slut" and together we were the "hoe gang", funny enough we still have this thing going on. Molly's a big part of mine and Millie's life and she's been there for so long. Ella on the other hand we only knew when we moved in with her. She's a pretty quiet girl, tall, brown short haired who wears glasses like Millie. She studies all the time though, I mean yeah I do study when I have to but I think Ella stresses a bit to much. She's always In the library but she is nice.

Life seems okay. For now.
Till I find out about the news Millie has to tell me.
And what happens after that.
And our life.
Her life more importantly.
Changes.

Forever.
