I walked downstairs and saw my mum sitting on the couch. I sat down next to her.

'Mum?'

'Yes, sweetie?'

'How do y-y-you know that you're in l-l-love?'

'Are you in love?'

'No, eh- maybe. I don't know.'

'You feel butterflies in your stomach, sweetie. And you're happy to be around that person and you want to be with them all the time. Who do you like?'

'It's s-s-so weird, mum. I d-don't u-understand what's happening.'

'Tell me.'

'I feel like that w-with Clay. But he is a b-boy.'

'That's why being gay is a thing, George.'

'Am I gay?'

'Are you in love with him?'

'I d-don't know. Would you be m-m-mad if I kissed someone?'

'Not at all.'

'And if it w-was Clay?'

'What did you feel?'

'It felt amazing. Am I really g-gay? Are you m-mad?'

'Why would I be mad, sweetie?'

'Because I k-kissed a boy and I m-might be g-gay.'

'I will always love you, George.'

'Am I gay?'

'Do you like Clay? Do you want to be with him? Do you think he is beautiful?'

'He is so handsome, he is amazing.'

'You don't even stutter when you think about him.'

'He calms me down every time and every time he touches me, I feel like I'm on another planet. He is so sweet for me.'

'You're in love, sweetie.'

'Really? Is being g-gay bad?'

'It isn't.'

'Aren't you mad?'

'No, I'm not.'

'Does Clay like me too?'

'He might. He started kissing you, didn't he?'

'He did, but he didn't know what he was feeling.'

'Because he never fell in love with a boy before. I spoke with him a while ago. He is afraid to admit it, but sweetie. He is gay. He likes everything about boys he told me, but he didn't know what it was exactly.'

'He said he wanted to kiss me so badly.'

'Because he likes you.'

'Not just as a friend?'

'You don't want to kiss your friends like that, sweetie.'

'What do I do? Tell him? Or wait?'

'Let him figure it out first.'

'Thanks. Did I just come out?'

'You did, and I still love you.'

CLAY POV

I entered my house and directly walked upstairs. I grabbed my phone and called Sapnap.

'Sap, I don't know what's happening anymore.'
