Chapter One

*beep beep beep*

Ahhh! Why do I have to go to school today, I hate waking up this early.

"Jeremiah, get out of bed, now," my mom said as she walked by my room, "Breakfast will be ready, in a few minutes."

"Okay, mom," I said. I really didn't care at all. I got up and took of my pajamas and put on a green tank top, with khaki shorts and my blue Nikes. I didn't feel like doing anything to my hair so I left it crazy.  I went to the bathroom and brushed my teeth, then went downstairs, when I had my bag, and ate breakfast. Which was scrambled eggs and toast, with grits. I grabbed a water bottle as I left the house to walk to school.

"Bye, Jeremiah," my mom shouted.

"Bye mom," I said back.

As I was walking I saw my friend Beth. She came up to me and started talking about how her boyfriend was being really mean. Her boyfriend, is a boy named Ethan. And his cousin James, was the boy I liked. I couldn't even stop thinking about how cute he is. I really liked him. A lot.

"So, have you talked to James yet?" Beth asked me as she stopped talking about Ethan.

"No, and I never will," I said, " I'm pretty sure he's straight, not pansexual, bisexual, or gay, like me. I'm gay, he isn't."

"You don't know that," she said, "he may be gay."

"I'm pretty sure he's not," I protested.

"Whatever, dork," she said as we got to the school.

I had to go to the boys patio and Beth went to the girls patio. I saw James right away. I was getting nervous. As usual. But this time he looked at me with a smile and waved. I waved back, and then I looked away, as I felt myself blush. I didn't know what that meant. All I know is that I can't wait for 3rd hour, because I have the class with him, and Ethan, and Beth. We all sit at a table together.

I was on my way to 1st hour when I saw Ethan, a he came up to me, he was like my best friend other than Beth. Any ways Ethan came and gave me a high five and started to talk about Beth, and how he felt bad, and I didn't even know what happened, but I just shook my head and said wow, and oh, every few seconds cause I wasn't even listening.

I was too busy thinking about James. And I didn't even realize that Ethan had already walking into his classroom, and I was close to my class. As I went into my math class I saw my friends, Cameron, who we call Cam, I saw Dorian, who Beth hates, but still puts up with him. And I saw James, who was in my first hour. He is also in my 3rd and 7th hour. I felt the butterflies in my stomach, start fluttering, when I saw James. Me and him are friends, and I can usually, hide the fact that I like him, but the past few days I just felt like I wasn't myself around him.

I made it through 1st and 2nd hour and I was finally happy that it was 3rd hour. When. I walked in, Beth, and Ethan were both already there. I sat down, just as James walks in. He looked at me and smiled and waved. He also gave me a high five. And as we did our fingers wrapped around each other and he was starring into my eyes. I felt the butterflies again. We were holding hands, even though it was only for a few seconds, it felt like hours. I was so happy.

"Hey, Ethan did you and Beth make up yet?" James asked.

"Yes, we did," Ethan said smiling at Beth. And Beth returned the favor by smiling at him. They were sitting next to each other, so that meant that me and James had to sit next to each other. James sat down and his leg touched mine, but he quickly moved it away, looking embarrassed.

"Sorry," he said.

"It's fine," I said. Ethan and Beth, just starred at us. Is never been this awkward before.

After school I was walking home and James came and was walking with me. And the butterflies came back again.

"So, what's up," he asked.

"Nothing much, you," I said.

"Same," he said, "So listen, I was wondering if I could study with you for our test tomorrow on Friday."

"Sure," I said sounding a little too excited.

"Also, I know that you are gay, and I know you like me," he said and I stopped in my tracks and so did he.

"Who told you that," I asked.

"Well Ethan did, but he said that Beth told him, and that you told that to Beth," he said.

"Oh," was all I could say.

"But, it's okay because I'm gay, too."

That last sentence kept repeating itself in my head, over and over again. He was gay.
