HIDDEN (Hide Or Die)

Chapter 17

KYLE'S P.O.V

Have you ever been in love? It is the most interesting, sweetest and scariest feeling a person can ever experience but in my case, every single feeling mutated and just came out extremely over the top.

I have always read about the relationships between teenagers and their hormones, but I never had to worry about mine until last night, the feeling of not being able to control my own body was awfully terrifying.

I  sat on my bed with a persistent boner from last night incredibly afraid of leaving the house. It refused to go away no matter how hard I tried to get rid of it. I had to talk to someone urgently, I needed help. But I couldn't think of one person that would be suitable for it. I couldn't tell mum, well, because it would lead to truths I didn't want to be uncovered and so in turn, I began to lose my mind.

"What am I going to do?" I asked myself overall and over again, this wasn't normal. But after having a second thought, I had to admit I wasn't normal either. That realization skyrocketed my fears to a hundred folds. Would this always happen every time I talked or touched him? Will this problem ever disappear? The thought of it made me tremble in fear. I knew I would die if I ever went back into isolation but unfortunately for me, that solution seemed to be the only choice I had.

After a while I came to the conclusion that Isolation couldn't be my only option, I had to leave the house, even when the fears of living with a permanent erection plagued my thoughts and made me shiver, I was determined to find a solution.

After a few minutes of repeatedly beating myself over it, I decided to find someone. This wasn't going to keep me away from him, never!. I quickly picked up my phone and dialed the only person I could think of.

"Hello?" The reply came.

"Hello, Becky, can we meet somewhere private, I really, really, really need to talk to you, " I said making sure I stressed how important it was for us to meet.

"Alright, let's meet at school then we will look for a quiet place to chat." She said and immediately, the alarms in my head went off, I couldn't go to school, not in this condition.

"No!.....I am sorry I can't come to school today." I said trying my hardest not to raise my voice. The line went silent for a while and I suddenly got scared that I had ended up frighting her off but then she replied,

"Alright, meet me at the beach."

I jumped up from the bed and quickly got dressed, making sure I wore the biggest and longest jacket I could find in my wardrobe to hide my problem then I rushed out of my room, down the stairs and towards the door but unfortunately, I wasn't fast enough.

"Kyle! Hold your horses, come seat down for breakfast, " mum shouted from the kitchen and I couldn't help but facepalm.

I reluctantly closed the door and went into the kitchen.

"Good Morning mum," I said, standing as far away from her as possible, I didn't want her finding out about my very embarrassing problem.

"What's wrong honey? You look paler than usual." She looked at me with a worried expression on her face.

"It's nothing mum, I just wasn't able to sleep last night because of a very difficult assignment."  I lied and her worried expression suddenly changed to a suspicious glare.

"Come on Kyle, I know you can do better than that. You've always been an A student and you have never spent a single sweat on any assignment before so what is this all about?" She placed her hands on her hips and stared me down so I quickly decided to use another method. There was no way I was going to tell her the truth.
