I was in my bedroom, staying up later and staring at my ceiling, wondering if I should tell my friends the secret that I’ve kept for a really long time.

I mean they’re my friend right? I shouldn’t keep it from them.

The doors open and my mom comes inside my room and sits next to me on the edge of the bed

“Why are you still awake Noelle? Can’t sleep?” My mom asked worriedly

“Hm...Yea, I just have a lot of things on my mind right now, mom”

“Just close your eyes and don’t think about it”

“Hm, okay..”

“Goodnight sweetie”

“Goodnight mom”

She kisses my forehead and walks out of my room.

I should probably introduce myself.

Hi, my name's Noelle. I’m 16, uh that’s all I guess.

Honestly I don’t know what time it was but somehow I managed to fall asleep after a while.

The next morning I woke up at the usual time, I got ready, ate breakfast and I went to the bus stop to get to school.

When I arrived at school I saw my friends chatting in our usual hangout place.

I walked towards them and we started talking to each other.

The bell rang, I didn’t have the courage to tell them my secret. I decided to wait until the first break.

We walked to math class. Seriously, whoever made our schedule, just why would you make math our first subject.

Mr. Jon cleared his throat “Good morning students, I suppose this isn’t the best morning for all of you. I too don’t want to be here but let’s just get along to make this lesson end sooner”

Math is so confusing, it’s everyones least favourite subject.

The teacher explained everything really quickly which made my brain want to explode.

This lesson went on for about an hour and a half.

Thank god it’s over.

The bell rang and we all walked out of the classroom.

We have a bit of a break in between periods. It’s about 10 minutes.

We went to our usual hangout place.

‘“I have something to say…”

“What is it?” Nicole asked

“It’s a secret that I’ve kept for a really long time..”

“It’s okay if you don’t want to talk about it” Said Ray

“N-no it’s fine”

“Hm, alright then” said Ray

I stuttered “so.. Um..I…I’m actual Pansexual..”

Before my friends could say anything I said “Look, it’s fine if you want to stop being friends with me..”

I closed my eyes and covered my ears, scared to hear the next word they were going to say.

I could hear them whispering something to each other but I decided to ignore it.

When I opened my eyes and removed my hands from my ears something unexpected happened.

“Why the hell would you say that?! Of course we’ll still be friends!” Nicole smiled

“Yea!” Said

I’m back in my bedroom thinking whether they were telling the truth or not.

It’s true right?

The next day I went to school earlier because I was happy to know that they accepted me.

When I arrived at our usul hangout place I could hear them talking about me.

It’s not what I think right? It’s nothing negative right?

As soon as I walked into the empty classroom my smile started turning into a confused face.

Thry were making fun about me for being who I am, saying stuff like I’m weird that I don’t belong

existing in this world.

Tears kept falling from my eyes and I ran away from the classroom. I can still hear them, laughing even louder than before.

Somehow I ended up at the school rooftop, a place where almost no one would be there.

I walked near the fence and rubbed my eyes that were filled with tears.

“Are you okay?” I heard someone saying that

I turned next to me to see a girl.

I sniffled “Yep, I’m alright..” I lied

The girl said “You don’t seem alright though.. Sorry this is probably none of my business..”

“No..Uhm It’s fine”

“Why were you crying then?” she asked

“My friends…they backstabbed me”

“Oh god, I can’t believe they would such a thing to you”

I can tell that she’s really worried about me.

“It..it’s fine, I wasn’t expecting much from them anyway.. So uhm what’s your name?”

I think she was a bit shocked when I asked her that.

“M-my name is Lana, what’s yours?”

“Nice to meet you Lana, I’m Noelle by the way” I let out a chuckle

She smiled “It’s nice to meet you too Noelle”

She had this smile on her face which made my heart skip a beat.

After that day the rumours about me being Pan were spread all across the school.

Other students started calling me names. It was a bit hard at first to accept all of these bad comments but Lana always encouraged me to stay positive because not everyone hates me. I hope that’s true.

Fast forward to a few weeks later, all grade 11 are going to a village for a field trip.

Currently I’m on the bus sitting next to Lana.

I see Nicole and Ray glaring at me which made me uneasy.

Lana comforted me though.

I wasn't able to sleep last night so I was really tired, without realizing it I fell asleep on her shoulder.

"Noelle? Noelle? Wake up, we're already at the village"

I yawned "oh we're here?"

"Yea"

"Oh my god I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to sleep on your shoulder"

She smiled, "oh, it's okay"

Her smile always makes me flustered

Suddenly there’s an announcement from the teachers,”Alright,we’ve arrived at the Village. Now I don't want anyone getting in trouble, do you understand that?”

“Yes, Sir” we all said

“The place we’ll be staying is separated for girls and boys. So I don’t want to see anyone sneaking into each other's room, got that?”

“Yes, sir..” They said less enthusiastically

“Alright then, let’s all have fun here” Mr.Jon Smiled

One by one everyone started getting off the bus.

In the room there are 2 beds that we’re supposed to share with 2other people

I’m sharing the room with Lana and 2 other girls.

Fortunately I don’t have to share a room with Ray and Nicole.

After unpacking we go outside and get into the line according to the group.

The first thing we had to do was help clean up the trash in the village.

While I was carrying the trash bag, suddenly a hole appeared at the bottom of the bag and all of the trash fell into the ground, some got on my shirt because I was trying my best to hold onto it.

I hear Lana coming towards me,”here I’ll help you” Said Lana

“Thanks”

Lana helped me pick up the trash and put it in the new plastic bag.

“Thanks again for the help”

Lana smiled,”No problem”

After showering I got called to cook with the other students that volunteered.

This is the first time I volunteered on something at school trips.

It's not that bad, it's actually quite fun.

"so..can you do me a favor and taste this sauce for the food?" Said Lana

I tasted the sauce "yum~ it taste really good"

"Noelle, you got some sauce on your face"

"Really? Where?"

She wiped the sauce from my face which made my face super red to the point where I froze for a few seconds.

"Noelle? Earth to Noelle"

I snapped back

"Oh sorry.."

"Are you okay? Your face is super red''

“Y..yea I’m fine”

“Alright”

Everythings going pretty well. Nicole and Ray stopped bothering me, I started hanging out more with Lana.

Everything seems to be going well. Too well.

I went to school like usual and went to my class and sat down on my table.

“Good morning Noelle” Lana smiled

I blushed “Morning..”

“I have something to tell you”

“What is it?” I say

“I like someone, his name is Felix” She whispered excitedly

This breaks my heart knowing that someone I like has a crush on someone.

I don’t blame her though, she has the right to like someone.

But I can’t help feeling sad about it.

I put on a fake smile,”Wow, congrats..”

“Thanks, but can you keep it a secret until I confess to him”

“Yea..sure”

After that day Lana's been talking about Felix nonstop

"Guess what!" said Lana

"What is it..?" I said tiredly

"Today Felix and I talked for a bit, I think he also likes me!" She said excitedly

"well.. Good for you"

"Hey? Are you alright? You seem to be tired. Is there anything I can do to cheer you up?" She said

"If you could stop talking about Felix I'd be more than happy" I murmured

"Did you say something? " she said

"It..it's nothing.."

"Hm.. Alright then"

I looked to my left to see Felix outside our class, waving at Lana while smiling

Then I looked back to Lana, she was waving back at him with a flustered face.

"I'll be right back" Lana smiled

"Hm.. Okay"

It was break time and I was bored because Lana's gone to see Felix, so I decided to go to the school rooftop.

The second I got there, I saw them kissing.

I've never felt this hurt.

I ran as fast as I could and curled up in the bathroom stall.

Not long after I hear footsteps coming closer to the stall I'm in but the sound slowly fades away.

I ended up staying there for a while until I came out to wash my face.

I walked back inside the classroom as if I saw nothing, as If I never ran to the bathroom, as if I didn't just cry…

"hey, where have you been?" said Lana

"Oh, I went to the bathroom.."

"Guess what! I have exciting news!"

"What is it..?" I asked

"I'm going out with Felix!"

"W-wha- I….I mean congratulations.."

Ever since they started dating I always feel like a third wheel.

They’re always together, eating together, walking home together, hanging out together.

I used to be that person to her before he came into her life.

It’s like he replaced me.

I know I shouldn’t think negatively about him.

He’s a nice guy, he's smart, gets good grades, has manners and he treats her like a princess.

Not to mention he’s super good looking and popular.

This makes me look like I’m the bad guy for hating him because he’s so god damn perfect.

Bell rings, we head back to our seats and the chemistry teacher walks into the classroom.

"Sit down everyone" said Mr. Michael

He clears his throat "Today we will be learning about Atomic and Molecular Structure.

Chemistry isn't the worst subject, it's not that hard and the teachers explanation is very clear and understandable

The lesson went on for about an hour and a half.

"That's all for today, students. Don't forget about the daily test that will be held next week about this material”

“Alright, class is dismissed”

My next period is Arts.

I walked to the Art room with Lana and sat down next to her like usual.

Today the teacher, Mr.Ajayi is absent so we’re given school work.

We’re told to draw a portrait of someone who means a lot to us.

Of course I drew Lana.

I was curious to see what Lana drew, but when I took a peek to my surprise it’s Felix.

I wanted to say something but I decided to stay quiet.

I don’t want things to get weird.

The class ended and we submitted our drawings.

As soon as we got out of the class Lana walked to Felix which left me all alone.

It’s lunch time, usually I sit with her but it seems like she forgot about me.

I sat far away from her and watched her from afar.

Lana’s sitting with Felix’s friends aka the cool kids at school.

Great! Not only is she ignoring me, she’s now hanging out with the cool kids.

This went on for days.

I was basically alone

Until a few days later.

I went to the mall with my mom because I needed to buy new clothes.

As I walked into the clothes store and I saw Lana walking towards me.

I wanted to ignore her but it was too late.

“Hey!” Said Lana

“H-hey..”

“Are you okay? You seem upset” she said

“Look, can we talk somewhere? My moms here”

My mom walks closer to us.

“Noelle, you need to try this on. Oh you must be Noelle’s friend” My mom said

“Yes, I am. My name is Lana, it’s nice to meet you ma’am” Lana smiled

“Oh, how polite. It’s nice to meet you too”

“Mom, I’ll be right back, I need to talk to Lana” I say

“Oh alright honey, just don’t be gone for to long”

I grabbed Lana’s hand and took us somewhere where there’s nobody.

I let go of her hand.

“W-what’s wrong Noelle? Why do you look like you’re mad at me…”

I took a deep breath and screamed “Don’t you get it?! You’ve ditch me to hang out with those shtitty cool kids!

Not to mention, you kept ignoring me at school. What?! Have I been replaced by your princey perfect boyfriend?!”

“N-noelle, look… I can explain” She said

“Explain what?! What you’ve been doing basically explains everything!”

“I thought you were different from my old friends but I guess I was wrong.” I say

I walked back to my mom leaving her all alone.

“You’re back, where’s your friend?” My mom asked

“Oh, she said she had to go”

“Hm, okay”

After shopping for clothes I went home.

As soon as I arrived home I went straight to my room.

The next day is Monday. The worst day of the week.

I walked into the classroom alone and sat far away from Lana.

I could see her staring at me, she had an expression on her face like she's about to cry.

I ignored her and looked away

During break time she tried to approach me but I ignored her and walked away.

I look back for a second to see if she's following me or not.

She didn't follow me.

I know I should've given her a chance to explain but my anger took over my emotions.

She tried to approach me again during lunch time.

Before I could walk away, she grabbed my hand and took me somewhere

"W-where the hell are you taking me too?!"

We ended up in an empty classroom.

She pushed me to the wall.

I see tears falling down from her eyes which makes me feel guilty.

"P-please…let me explain"

I stayed quiet.

"I..I'm so sorry for leaving you all alone this whole time…please forgive me. I promise to never do it again" she sniffles

She rested her head on my chest.

I didn't say anything but instead I patted her head to calm her down.

"I..I'm also sorry" I say

She lifts her head and looks at me.

"I let my anger get the best of me..I'm sorry I didn't let you explain"

She wipes the tears from her face

"I'm sorry for leaving you to hang out with the cool kids. I should've never done it.

I thought that I'd be cool if I hung out with them"

We laughed

"Okay, we should stop apologizing to each other" she said

We stayed quiet for a while until I broke the silence

“Lana, I have something to say…”

“What is it?” She asked

“I have a secret that I’ve kept from you for months..”

“A secret?”

“I…I actually liked you… that was why I was so jealous of Felix..

I was too scared to tell you about this… of course not anymore though cause he’s your boyfriend now.

Lana chuckles “I actually knew about this”

I blushed, “Was I too obvious..?”

“Yea, way too obvious”

”Why didn’t you tell me about this? Also is this why you’ve been ignoring me?”

“Well, I didn’t know how you would react so I kept it a secret and this has nothing to do with that”

“Don’t worry we can still be friends” She smiled

“R-really?”

“Of course! You’re my bestfriend afterall”

After that day we were basically back to normal.

We started hanging out again as if nothing had happened.

Lana would come over to my house very often and we’d hang out and have sleepovers.

This is not the life I was expecting but I’m grateful to have Lana as my bestfriend.

I don't know if this is the end or not, but I think that’s all for now.
