[UPDATE 30/5/2017: I've been pretty shit at updating this over the last year (sorry!!), however I promise I'll come back to this story at some point.] The name Francesca felt like some kind of twisted joke to him. Being referred to as 'she' felt even worse. And his body made him feel sick. Because it just wasn't his. He wasn't Francesca - he was Frank (or, if he specifically said so, you could call him Frankie... But that was only reserved for really special people.) And the one thing he wished for was to be happy in his own skin. But he knew that would take a long time. * This story follows a young transgender boy. I should mention that I am not transgender, I am a cis female, and obviously I know that I cannot fully understand the struggles that people who are trans face. This story is partly my way of showing support for those who are trans (including a couple of my closest friends) and partly me trying to work on my ability to write about issues that do not directly affect me (i.e. dysphoria and having parents who will not support you). If you are trans and something I say comes across as offensive, please know that it was not intended that way, and I am sorry. Leave a comment and I'll change or remove it as soon as I can.

"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. They've shared almost everything. From first kisses and crushes to heartbreak. But Sean has a secret.
