Today is Saturday and Theo, Angie, Frances, and Abigail where having a sleepover at Frances's house.
They where in Frances's room talking and laughing. "So...do you guys have any crushes?" Theo asked.
Abigail blushed, "If I tell you guys you can't tell anyone"
"Deal!" The girls said as Abigail took a deep breath, "I think I like William" Said whispered.
The girls giggled. "What about you Angie?" Asked Frances. Angie was the "baby" of the group even though she was a year younger.
"I don't know. There aren't any cute eighth grade boys" She said and the girls started laughing. "What about you Frances?" Theo asked.
Frances looked down, "I-I don't know"
"Come on, you can tell us"
Frances was hesitant. She didn't know how to say it. "Well...I'm..." she couldn't finish her sentence, "I need to use the bathroom!" She got up and ran away, covering her face with her hands.
"What was that about?" Asked Abigail. Soon Frances came back. "What where you gonna tell us?" Said Theo.
Frances looked down, "Well I wanted to tell you guys this for a while..."
"What is it?" Angie asked.
Frances spoke, "Well, over the summer I discovered that I am gay..."
Everyone looked at each other confused at first, "please don't be mad"
The girls jumped into a hug, hugging Frances close, "Aww Fran! Of course we're not mad!" Angie said.
Theo spoke too, "Yeah. We would never be mad at you"
the girls hugged each other close, "So...do you have a crush?" Abigail asked. "No not really, I'm sure all the girls at our school are straight though"
"Don't worry! You'll find someone for you!" Said Abigail. The girls giggled and watched movies all night.

Meanwhile, Philip was in his room writing poems about Theo. He wanted her to read them but they where very cheesy and Philip thinks she'll think he's a creep.The door slammed open, it was Philip's brothers, AJ and James. AJ was 13 and James was 12.
"Philip!" James called out. "What?"
"Angie told us you like Theo~" AJ teased. Philip turned around, "I told her not to tell anyone!"
AJ and James laughed, "Why Dont you just tell her how you feel" asked AJ. Philip looked at his brother and said, "She probably thinks of me as a friend"
"Yeah you're probably right" Said James. "JUST GET OUT OF MY ROOM!" Philip chased them out of his room as his brother laughed and ran away.
Philip sat down on his bed.
I really like Theo but I don't know how to tell her. He thought.
I guess we are just friends for now...
