Itâs only a few weeks after Ray and I kissed, though it feels like it was a few decades ago. I canât imagine what life is without him. Even though Iâve known him since I can remember. I mean that it feels like weâve been âtogetherâ for so many years. Iâm already head over heels for him. I know I should not fall in love though, as if I do, I will fall forever. But Ray will be there, heâll hold my hand and pull me up from the edge of the cliff and save me. So it may feel like I was falling, but Ray had pulled me up before I could fall. He saved me. From nothing, I guess.
I know stuff like that makes no sense coming from my mouth, or anybodyâs in that case. My feelings for him are so hard to explain, though.
We have not told anybody yet, but we plan to tell our closest friends today, though.
That list in uncertain, since we have so many friends that weâve only had for about a month.
Basically all our friends from before that are all gone.
Barbaraâs gone crazy, and Geoff has, too.
Gavin, Lindsay, Chris, Miles, Kerry⌠is that all?
Jesus, I canât even remember.
But today I think we should only tell Gavin. We are closest with him, and itâs been awkward lately because all us three have spent so much time together. Itâs weird when you can only kiss your boyfriend when your best friend is out of the room. Not to mention, when your best friend is out of their own room. Twice.
The bell goes before I can see if Ray has arrived, so the best thing is to just go to class.
I have this class with Gavvy and Barb⌠ara.
Iâve got to start getting used to the fact that Barbara isnât my friend anymore. I canât give her nicknames if we barely know each other⌠well, anymore.
The only spot remaining is next to Barbara. You gotta be fucking kidding me.
âGood morning, Michael. Your spot is next to Barbara. Anyway as I was saying, these new seating plans should boost your learning andâŚâ The teacher says.
I basically stopped listening after that. Instead, I was focused on Barbaraâs evil glare.
I spot Gavin sitting across the room, just as he sees me. He mouths the words from hell.
âRay isnât coming today. Sorry.â
I need to tell someone already.
I canât come out on my own.
Barbaraâs glare at me thickens through the lesson and when I feel like I canât take it anymore, I see in the corner of my eye, the looks of her negotiating something. Her harsh expressions turn to soft ones as she stares at me, and she almost seems a little giddy and excited.
After the lesson, Barbara drags me out of the class before I can even see daylight and we go to the library. She drops me where we once lost our friendship about a month ago.
âIâm sorry.â She says, looking up into my eyes, her hair holding clearly fake extensions, but her face, true expressions.
She pulls them out, and untangles her hair. She looks normal, albeit the outfit.
Sheâs⌠normal. The tears forming in her eyes are real, and she starts to breakdown. I grab her and hug her tight, letting her tears fall on my jumper freely. She embraces herself in my warmth and I feel it. I think sheâs finally broken out of that gross personality.
âThe only reason I wanted you for thatâŚâ She pauses.
âWas because I wanted to convince myself I wasnât Gay.â She says.
We are quiet and my eyes tell her she needs to explain. She sighs.
 âWhen Lindsay kissed me, I felt⌠warm. Fluffy. I realised then that I like her⌠a lot. But she doesnât like me anymore. What have I done!â She cries back into my shoulder, her arms wrapped around my back.
I take off my tear-soaked jumper and drop it over her head.
âThere. Lindsay doesnât like a girl who flaunts herself.â I say, smoothing out her hair.
The sleeves are a little long for her, but otherwise it fits her well. She laughs and looks at the jumper compared to her tiny body.
âYou know, my mum says Iâll grow tall someday.â She smiles, giving my cheek a small peck.
âThat was just friendly, nothing else.â She warns, skipping away to her next class.
âNormal BarbâŚâ I whisper with s sigh of utter relief.
(Lol did you get the RWBY reference? Normal Knees⌠haha Iâm funny⌠okay not really.)
I have my next class with Gavin yet again, though this time we are a little freer.
That class is Music, the only class I can talk with swears and all that⌠heheh⌠shit.
I see Gavin from across the COLA, so I meet up with him and then we walk the rest of the way to Music together.
âGunna enjoy Music?â Gavin asks as we approach the room.
We sit in class just singing old songs together, laughing our asses off. Itâs what we do in Music nowadays. I used to just sit here and play little crappy tunes on the keyboards but I have a friend here now.
âOur house!â I almost yell.
âIn the middle of our street!â Gavin says, close to screaming.
We sing until our throats are much past sore before we decide to take a break.
We grab our bottles and absent-mindedly try to finish our own before the other. This is a fucking race.
âIâm gu-rglur-nna bea-gur-t youuuuâ Gavn says through gulps.
I drop my bottle to the ground and chant my own name with pride. Gavinâs bottle is more than a third full.
âNo fair, you cheated. Your bottle was almost empty!â Gavin whines.
âNo way, I havenât taken a sip all day.â I brag, folding my arms.
âBullshit.â Gavin mutters, popping his bottle back into his bag.
I check my timetable for my next class after recess. It reads Gym. Well I guess I can check if Barb and Linds are back as best buds again.
I guess that question doesnât have to wait an answer.
âHey Michael.â Both girls say in unison, their arms dangling on each otherâs shoulders.
âOh hey girls, back together?â I say, almost cheering.
âYep. And by the way, Michael⌠neither of us went to 2nd period.â Barbara slowly whispers, just as Lindsay harshly nudges her ribs.
âTotally⌠worth it.â Barb groans, clutching her side.
âWe met up just outside English. We both tried to walk in the door at the same time. Bumped into each other. Then something happened.â Lindsay smiles, staring into Barbaraâs eyes, filled with pain, which just makes her laugh.
âYou got caught by my good looks.â Barb says, just as she gets nudged again.
âStill worth it.â She chuckles heavily.
âYouâll feel it tomorrow.â Lindsay says, snorting a little.
âHey, so will you.â She replies suggestively, earning the hardest and last elbow to the ribs.
âSo worth it, but Iâm going to stop. I mean before I need stitches.â She says, sitting down next to me.
Gavin joins and practically slides into the plot aside me.
âHey Gavino.â I say, ruffling his hair.
âSup Mogar.â He replies, tugging me close a little.
Itâs strange how weâve become such close friends in such short time.
