One day you started talking to a boy, which turned into hour long calls, which turned into talking to eachother full nights, which turned into talking at school, which eventually turned into you two liking eachother.

You didn’t know how to tell your dad, John, who is a military captain and a pretty good one. A few of your friends had kept scaring you about how their dad’s had gotten so angry when they found out about their boyfriends, but you know that nothing is worse than SECRETLY seeing someone..

You took a deep breath, feeling your heart pounding in your chest as you walked outside to your porch, looking at your dad who is smoking a cigarette. Your dad glances at you, expecting you to ask for money or something, but when you tell him you would like to introduce him to a boy, he immediatelly coughs and looks at you. ”Boyfriend?” He asks, immediatelly looking like he wants to yell at you.
