Alex had had a rough day... Football practice was rougher than usual, and no, not the actual workouts they did... The boys were meaner than they normally were to Alex, teasing him and calling him derogatory slurs...

Alex groaned and plopped onto his bed, burying his head into his pillows as small tears fell down his cheeks. He didn't choose this life... he didn't choose to be gay... it just felt right to like guys... girls didn't satisfy him the way being with guys did.

As he cried softly, he felt a weight on his legs. He sniffled softly and pulled his head up, looking back at his legs. He sighed as he saw his black cat, Moonlight, crawling up towards him...

He pulled himself up and gently pulled Moonlight up to his chest.

"Hey, kitty... guess you're the only one that still wants me, huh?"
