Back in August of 2013, Troye won a trip to go to San Francisco and he was allowed to bring someone. The trip was scheduled for February.

   A couple of weeks before the trip, I was hanging out at Tyler's place. We decided to skype Troye to see what he was up to.

  Troye started talking about his trip to San Fran and how he was bringing Steele, his older brother.

Then suddenly, Tyler interrupted.

"WAIT!" He yelled.

"What happened!?"

"Okay, you've never been to San Fran before so obviously, you're not gonna know what to do there. And Connor, you have never been to San Fran either, right?"

" Correct," I said still not knowing what was going on.

"So why don't we all go together. You know, so we can all hang out and I can show you guys around".

We talked about it more and agreed on Tyler's plan. He and I will fly to San Francisco and meet Troye and Steele there. Pretty simple.

That day I stayed at Tyler's place because I was too tired to go home. And I have to say, I'm so glad I stayed there.

I couldn't sleep that night. I tried to take some sleeping pills but nothing happened. I tried watching a movie to make my eyes tired. Still nothing. But there was a reason I couldn't sleep. That thought, the thought of being gay, suddenly came back. I didn't know what to do about it.

I looked at my phone. It displayed the time 2:14 a.m. I was freaking out so I went to Tyler's room.

"Tyler, wake up." I shook him until he finally woke up. He grabbed his glasses from his bedside table. I ran to the the light switch and turned the light on.

"What the hell is going on?".

At this point I was a mess. I was crying my eyes out. I just couldn't take it anymore.

"Connor! What the fuck happened? Why are you crying?!"

"I just can't take it anymore Tyler! It's driving me crazy!"

"What are you talking ..."

I didn't even let him finish. I calmed down and just let the words out of my mouth.

"I'm gay."
