Then, a fourth grade student at the school where Xander works comes out as trans, causing him to reevaluate his identity and forcing him to confront the larger implications of just passing.

Thomas should live in a time and age where people don't care about sexuality or gender identification but that isn't true as his mother refuses to think of him as anything other than her son and Thomas. To the people important in his life, Thomas is actually Ginger and a female. She's almost done with high school and ready to get out from under her oppressive mother's thumb and live the rest of her life how she wants to. This is a story I wrote for creative writing class.

Hidden Roses
Pax is a fifteen year old (rising junior) with no sense of self love and also with a shitty family. He grew up in a world where he hadn't heard a lot of things even existed, like anything in the LGBT spectrum, and he'd grown up in churches that exiled the word "gay". In sixth grade, everything finally clicked. He was transgender. Just because he realized it, though, didn't mean his entire life would become perfect. From the time he was twelve on, he was sick and confused and altogether terrified of what he's become. After he came out to all of friends, most of them ditched him until his only friends were the school's gay power couple and a nonbinary internet friend he'd never even talked to in real life, and only them to help him and figure out everything that needs figuring out. In this coming-out story, I delve basically into what was my young teenage years - so I included quite a lot of things I went through. Some triggers this might include are: -transphobia -homophobia -vague references to self harm -suicidal thoughts & actions -SPOILER: Pax is kicked out at some point; I'd suggest that you don't read it if you're not comfortable with that because that's the climax. 600 reads?? 100 votes???

Before You Knew Me (ONC 2025)
Jim never expected to see Rebecca again-especially not here, in a Denver hotel bar, twenty-some-odd years after high school. Back then, she was the queen bee of his nightmares, a golden girl who made life miserable for awkward, closeted kids like him. But she doesn't recognize him now... not as the man he's become. A few drinks, some harmless conversation, and suddenly, the past doesn't feel so sharp. They're just two professionals on separate work trips-Rebecca, a high-flying pharmaceutical sales rep, and Jim, a corporate trainer starting fresh... What happens over the next few days is a mistake. He knows it the moment their lips brush against each other. He should tell her who he is. He should walk away. Instead, he lets the lie linger. Because for one short work trip, he isn't that kid from high school. And she isn't the girl who made him feel small. But the truth has a way of surfacing. And when it does, neither of them will leave this hotel the same. Prompt 34: Your new job requires an out-of-town overnight orientation, but when you check in, you run into someone from your past you never thought you'd see again.Complete

"What if I'm not one?" I asked, my body wound tight with tension. "One what?" he asked, his voice soft and low. I hesitated. Was I ready? I wanted to tell him so badly. Wanted to scream it from the fucking rooftops. But there would be no going back if I allowed the words to spill out into the world. Telling myself I didn't need someone else's validation, that I knew myself well enough to know with absolute certainty that I was trans was all good and well in principle. But lying here underneath my bed, with my best friend's body pressed so close to mine I could feel his warm breath on my face, I felt those convictions slip through my fingers. Danny's rejection would break me. In a fundamental way. "One what?" he repeated the question, scooting so close to me the tip of his nose brushed mine. Dust motes danced around us, suspended in mid air, teetering on the brink of this momentous feeling wrapping itself around us. I squeezed my eyes shut, pushing down the rush of anxiety trying to drown me. His nose bumped mine again and his breath ghosted over my lips. I opened my eyes and stared unblinkingly into his. 'A girl', I wanted to say, even though I knew the words would taste sour in my mouth, 'what if I'm not a girl?' -------------------------------------- Sean and Danny have been next door neighbours and best friends since they were six years old.
