What the hell? What the hell?! I scream inside my head. Anger builds inside
me, from my own stupid actions. After spilling it out to the unknown room-
mate, I had no choice but to run out of there as fast as I could. After, what
seemed like forever, sprinting through the camp, I get to the rec room. Locking
the door behind me. Wanting to be alone. The room still smelled like Pledge. The
furniture from the 70's looked brand new. And they got four box sets of The
Office beside the TV.
I sit on the couch, catching my breath. Realizing that I was still holding my phone.
Open to the same message from Jacob. Why did I tell him? His face is still locked in my brain. Why?
"It was supposed to be a secret." I whisper to myself. I never wanted people
to know about my sexuality. I first realized about it in sixth grade. I told my
best-friend, at the time, about it. The next day everybody started avoiding
me and kept calling me a freak. It just kept getting worse after that. My mom
moved me away after it got horrible.
Tears form in my eyes. It hurts every time I think of that past.
"What am I doing? I can't run away." I realize that I can't be weak anymore.
The door slams behind me. Running to go fix this. Maybe if I talk to him, I wont
have a repeat of six grade. Maybe if I talk to him, I might find out why I told him
in the first place.
I get back to the cabin and noticed that he isn't here. Maybe he went to the
opening ceremony like everyone else. What was I thinking anyway. There's no
way I could face him.
"Cody, you in here?" Maggie says, startling me.
"What are you, crazy? Entering a guy's cabin like that?"
"It's OK. Everyone is at the ceremony. Plus I wouldn't mind a little eye candy if
you know what I mean?" She laughs.
I giggle in response.
"Hey, you OK?" She asks. "You weren't around the ceremony. I thought something
might be wrong."
I don't respond and just look away.
"Is it Jacob? Is he bothering you? Don't worry I'll straighten him out for you."
I'm not if I should tell her. I know that Maggie is a great friend and she is the one
person I go to for help. But I don't know how she will think of the situation.
"W-well," I start. I tell all that happened. When I was depressed about Jacob.
When my fourth roommate came in when I was at my point and how gorgeous he
was. And how I blurted out my secret.
"Hmmmm," Maggie replies, taking this all in. "Why don't you try talking to him?
Maybe he will understand and be ok with it. Personally Cody, I think you should
try to be more open with people. There's nothing wrong with you! And believe it
or not there are people out there that don't care what gender you like."
Maggie was right. I can't keep living in the past. I grab her into a tight hug
whispering a 'thank you' into her ears. She hugs me back and also whispers a
'your welcome.'
"Your right. I'll try talking to him and see's what he has to say."
"Oh! Before you do that, you need to know one thing."
"What?"
"His name."
