“I don’t know. Will the teachers tell our parents if they find out?”

“In my pervious school there was a gay boy and everyone, including the teachers knew and they didn’t tell his parents. I don’t know how it works here of course but if they find out, I will ask them to not say anything.” I try to assure her.

“So, you say you want to tell people?”

“I wouldn’t mind to tell people. If you don’t want to, we won’t but if you want to tell, then I’ll be 100% with you.” I say.

“Really?”

“Yes, really.”

“What if it does leak to our parents?” Tina asks.

“Then it does. I have to tell them someday, right? Of course, if you aren’t ready or not sure, I’ll wait.” I tell her.

“I think I want to wait for a while. I think we should be together for a while before saying we are dating to be stronger, do you know what I mean? They’ll take us more seriously then.” Tina explains.

“Whatever you want, Tee.” I say. She smiles at me and gives me a kiss on my cheek, making me blush. She chuckles and I see she is also blushing a little.

“You are sweet.” She tells me. I smile.

“I thought you already knew that.”

“Yeah, I did but I just wanted to tell you that.”

“So does not telling anyone include our friends?” I ask.

“Gosh, Porter, you really want to tell people don’t you?” Tina asks me smiling.

“Well, I’m just proud of you and I kind of want to scream it from the rooftops.” I admit.

“I think that we can tell Shane and Alice because they share a room with us and, even if you don’t like it, Helena is still one of the Gang.”

“Okay, that sounds good but Tina, how do you know I don’t like Helena?” I want to know.

“Oh come on, B. The whole school knows you can’t stand her. I don’t know why, though because she is nice to everyone.”

I turn red again, now it’s from shame. “She… she seemed to hit on you.”

Tina laughed. “Are you serious? That’s why you act all bitchy towards her?”

“Bitchy? I give short answers but you haven’t seen me in bitch mode I think;”

“Really? I would love to see that.” Tina tells me. I grin.

“Why?” I ask her.

“Because I think it’s kinda hot.” She tells me without blinking. Again, my jaw hits the floor. Before I recover and am able to reply, a teacher walks out and tells us it’s time for breakfast. She let’s go of my hand and walks inside, I follow her and can’t help looking at her butt in her skirt. She walks slower and ends up next to me. She leans closer and whispers in my ear: “Stop looking at my ass, Porter. It’ll take a while before you’ll be able to touch it.”

And with that she left me standing there feeling totally confused of my feelings. What the hell was happening in my stomach and well, lower? It feels good but it’s weird. I shake my head and with a silly grin, I walk into the dinner room. I see Tina sitting down with our friends. I walk over and sit next to her. She smiles at me smugly and I just smile and wink at her. I look into Helena’s eyes and I feel happy with what I see. Jealousy. That’s right Hel, eat your heart out!
