1 MONTH TO THE PRESENT DAY...
[ JASPER'S POV ]
When I first agreed to confronting Henry, I didn't mean anything like that. I thought it was going to be a chill chat over cake, maybe even doughnuts, but not an heated argument in our apartment. And as much as I believe what Char said was right, I can't just act like nothing happened - Henry's my best friend too.
'Henry wait,' I run up to him outside our apartment building, as the sun begins to rise around us. The street's entirely empty other than a few passabys, mainly drunks coming home for the next day. Instead of stopping to talk, he carries on slowly, facing away from me.
'Jasper, we have nothing to talk about okay - nothing at all. You don't support it or whatever, you think I'm a liar, I get that.' I pick up the pace until I can comfortably follow behind him.
'You just left us in the dark, okay? How was I supposed to react.'
'Ray said you two would be understand - apparently he doesn't understand any of us well enough,' The blonde turns to stop, confronting me as he does.
'Well, we never accepted it, I don't see why you thought that would change!'
'How was I supposed to know, it's not like we ever talked about it! We're boys, we don't talk about those kinds of things, and it's not like I'm going to talk to Char about it?' Henry cuts across, and now I'm just confused.
'It's all we've ever talked about, Hen! That was the whole reason you didn't want to join T.R.U.T.H., wasn't it?'
'The fact that I like both boys and girls has nothing to do with why I didn't take a job!' He shouts, his face inches from mine, his breath rapidly drawing in and out. He's tense searching for any response in my face, but I just stand there eyes wide - did I know that? Did he tell me that before? I can't remember, but I feel like that's something I would remember. Quickly as it came, his confrontational stance goes slack and he stares off into the distance.
'And you didn't know that, did you?' I shake my head, trying to collect my thoughts, 'You thought Ray was talking about crime, right?'
'Yeah,' I mumble out, 'Hen, I swear I didn't even know.'
As he starts to talk, I feel a blow to the back of my head causing my body to fall forward to the ground. I can't see very well, my eyes streaming from the dull pulsing pain that's spreading through my neck - but somehow I can hear very well even if it's just feels like sensory overload. Shouts and screams heighten around me, as I see of flash of light coming from Henry's direction. It's almost blinding, but I can see his silhouette coming into focus once more. The Dark Falcon. There's like three guys around him, and while my head may be buzzing like mad, I need to help him. I fumble around trying to maintain my dwindling consciousness. I close my hand around a small orange pill before shoving it in my mouth. I guess it's finally time to see if these work, adios amigos!
I literally can tell people are already going to hate me for making Henry bisexual, but when watching the programme I really felt like he was the representation we needed. A strong male character that didn't happen to be a stereotype, but liked boys and girls - I didn't really think it needed to be a big thing but something that could have been developed. Sorry if you don't like the development, but don't worry it will still kind of be secondary to the plot, just something that I think is important to the character. And don't worry Cherney fans, this won't affect it at all for those still waiting.
