(JAEDEN'S POV)
It's Monday morning and I wake up from an influx of text's from Finn Wolfhard, "bro wake up, it's the first mufti-day at school in 3 months, we don't have to wear our shitty uncomfortable uniform". I just sigh, mufti days would be great if everyone at school didn't judge you for your choice of clothing even though it has nothing to do with them and they should just mind their own business. I hate school and everyone there except my friends, but i've got to get on with it, only a few more years until I can leave, go to collage and never see those pricks ever again. I chuck on a black hoodie, ripped jeans and Nike shoes then head down to see Finn has just pulled up my driveway to pick me up. "not wearing anything too camp Jae" Finn chuckled, "nah I thought i'd try and blend in, not give everyone at school a reason to laugh at me for being gay". Finn just told me to not worry and we drove 5 minutes down the road to the hellhole that is school. We walk in through the school gates just before the bell rings and of course Wyatt Oleff the most homophobic person i've ever met is just standing there waiting next to his friends Gaten, Caleb and Chosen. "hey fag's have a good night rubbing cocks", we just ignore him like we always do, "Karma will be served to him one day Jae" Finn says, "yeh i sure well hope so" I reply. Wyatt has always been homophobic and i'm not sure why, I know his family very well and his parents definitely brought him up to be more open minded. We rush into our first class of today and are greeted by Jack, "you two are always late, let me guess Jaeden slept past his alarm again", "of course" Finn replied. We get on with the lesson and the rest of our day since we share almost all our classes together, I try my best to blend in, but being openly gay at this school makes that extremely difficult. Eventually the day ends and Finn drops me off home, he tells me to text him if I need anything, I just nod and wander inside the two-story house. Mum and Dad were still at work so I get upstairs to my bedroom and start working on my History homework that Mr Anderson set us, Mr Anderson always set us way too much homework and was why most people didn't take history. I didn't mind it however because when i'm doing my homework it keeps my mind busy and doesn't allow my depression to hit in. I was about half-way through my homework when Mum came back from work, "Jaeden come downstairs I have something I need to tell you". I race downstairs to hear the news and it was worst thing I could hear at the time. "Jaeden we will be going to the Oleff's tomorrow after work to celebrate Mrs Oleff's birthday. My heart sank, I would have to spend the night at the biggest, most homophobic dickhead's house, the person who had made my last 4 years at school a living nightmare and just pretend that everything is fine between us, this was going to be awful.
(WYATT'S POV)
"What why does he have to come here", "you know exactly why he has to come here Wyatt, he is a family friend and do you know the past that his mother and I have had together, she is like a sister to me" Wyatt's mother replied. "Fine, but that annoying little gay better stay out of my business", "there is no need to be homophobic Wyatt" his mother said annoyed as she walked out of the room. Wyatt was just sat there and thought to himself, this was going to be awful. Wyatt had always been in denial about his sexuality that was why he surrounded himself with the toughest straight guys in the school and shagged every girl under the sun, the last thing he needed was a gay guy coming over and seducing him, this couldn't be any worse.
