"Aqua is that you? Long time no see." he said with a sick grin. A battle was forming in my head, run or stand there and pretend nothing is wrong till someone shows up. Run, run, RUN! The voice in my head was screaming. I turned around and ran. "That was a bad move" the voice in my head realized as I heard the sound of someone running after me. I ran and ran but the guy would just not give up chasing. My lungs started closing up as it became harder and harder to breathe. Haunting memories started flashing in front of my eyes and I suddenly collapsed onto the floor. "Don't worry Aqua, I'll take care of you," the silhouette caught up with an insanely sick smile. Then, everything went black. * * * * * * * * * I always had a weird name-Aquarine-but everyone just called me Aqua. My dad always said it was very special, but why he never said. My mom died when I was at a very young age. I don't remember much about her except that she was really pretty and used to love the ocean. My friends Sasha, Claire and I go to Richmond Malibu High and we all live in neighboring mansions by the beach. Okay, so right now you might be thinking "Oh, this is just one of those perfect stories where the girl is rich and has a perfect life" but trust me, my life is a long way from perfect.

"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.
