Newly Not Cis

Get Decked

End of part 1. I forgot to upload the last 3 chapters of this story. I'll be adding some extra spice at some point, stay tuned.

Jamie was gorgeous. Nick had thought that the minute they walked into class. His boyfriend was gorgeous and somehow handsome even while dressed in the girliest clothes their mum could get them to wear. His heart was pounding. What was he going to say? It wasn't like he could be openly flustered? Getting work done was going to be hard with them around. Were relationships meant to be so distracting? He had to sit down. Keep his cool. Jamie was still going through a lot; he needed to act as normal as possible to make them feel safe.

"Hey, Jamie." Aside from the voice crack, things were fine.

"Hey, Nick," they said. The vocal change was still a shock; they sounded like a girl. Down to the way they said things. Regardless, it was good to see them. Even if they looked depressed.

"How did everything go?" A natural response. They just came out to their homeroom. Understanding how they feel was the best first step.

"Good. I'm happy to see you, though."

Blushing, immediate blushing. He needed to get a hold of himself.

"Wha-- huh -- Why?" Playing it smooth wasn't an option, apparently.

Smirking. They were smirking. For the first time in a while, that cocky smirk was back. His brain was going to overload. What were they doing? Why were they being so obvious? Coming out as a girl and then immediately showing off that you are in a relationship doesn't seem like something they would do.

"Because you aren't treating me like a freak."

"What?"

"Dude, I just said 'I grew boobs overnight and now I'm living as a girl.' People are gonna treat me like a freak. Ben proved that."

"What did he say?"

"Doesn't matter."

"Jamie--"

"Everyone quiet, I'm doing roll call, then making an announcement," the teacher called out. It would have to wait. Jamie was having to go through another reintroduction. He'd avoided thinking about the people staring at them, but now those stares were going to be given attention by the teacher. Being there for Jamie was all he could do. "Come up to the front, Jamie."

With a forced smile on their face, they walked up to the front of the room and delivered their pre-practised speech. It was succinct and didn't invite questions. Perfect for them. The murmuring and staring would have to die down now. The teacher would enforce quiet to avoid Jamie having to answer any non-work questions and they'd focus on their work and it would be fine. Then Nick would talk to them about things that didn't matter.

The first part of that went off without a hitch. Class passed quickly and he tried his best to ask some questions here and there. He needed to know how Jamie was feeling. Helping them through this was something a boyfriend should do, but every time he asked, they would deflect, and before he was able to get any answers, class was over.

As they walked together to Jamie's locker, Nick could feel the people in the hall staring. Jamie was gorgeous, and new. He hoped that was all they were interested in. Rumours didn't spread that fast and no one would be able to recognise them anymore, right?. No one could have made the connection. Still, he remained on high alert, in case someone tried something.

"Are we going to the tree?" Nick asked. Distracting them from the staring was gonna be important for the next couple of days while they tried to get used to this and while the novelty wore off.
