“Oh…okay” I say quietly as I slowly process your words. There’s a noticeable skepticism plastered on your face, which breaks my heart.

You and I have been together for about 4 months and tonight we’re having our first sleepover. It was a bit awkward asking my mum if you could spend the night here, as she probably thinks we’re gonna do… something. But we’re only 15 and besides, I don’t really care if nothing happens. I’m just happy to spend time with you. We’ve been playing video games, we ate dinner with mum and my stepdad Robin and mum even made us dessert, which she usually never does.

Just a few seconds ago, while we were laying face to face in my bed with the lights off, you told me that you’re bi. It came kinda out of nowhere, not that it matters though. Nothing will change my love for you. I’ll always love you no matter what.

“Why didn’t you tell me earlier?” I ask gently as I put my hand on your soft cheek.
