Better Half

Ch. 2

I have been questioning my sexuality now for a few years now, and those jocks didn't help. I really do think, well I know, but in denial, that I am gay, but I can't come out due to the only people I have left. What makes it worse, I'm in love with the boy that I have to share a bed with every night......
" Are you ok? Those guys shouldn't have said that to you. I mean, you can be honest with me here, are you gay?" Oh gosh. The dreaded question. How do I answer? I will just go with the truth.
"Yes I'm gay, but I don't have a boyfriend. I have my eyes set out on someone though. He doesn't like me back, and I love him." I spilled some of my heart out. I didn't realize I was crying until he stopped walking to pull me into a tight embrace. "Well, he's an idiot for not loving you back." If only he felt the same way......
