How did I not know. That was my first thought when Kate told me she was gay. My second thought was why didn't she tell me. I was so confused. Why would she hide it from me? Did she have a girlfriend? Maybe that is why she didn't tell me.
I stare at Kate while she walks to her car. She is beautiful, with her long red hair her perfect breasts and her slim hips. I was always jealous of her body. What would it be like to touch it. I pause that train of thought. Why would I touch her that's for girlfriend not me. The thought of having another girl touch Kate irritated me for some reason. I'm not jealous I'm straight so that's not it maybe I just don't want to lose our friendship. Yup that's it.
I drive home trying to clear my head but its not working. I walk into the house and am greeted by my mother.
"How was dinner?" She asks.
"Um different," I answer honestly.
"Why what happened." She frowns the wrinkles on her face crinkling.
"Um well I found out something about Kate I didn't know and I think I'm in shock."
"Oh," My mother paused, "If you don't mind me asking what you find out."
"She's gay." I blurt out.
"Is that a problem?" my mother asks.
"No I don't think so. It's not. I'm just surprised she didn't tell me. I think." I rambled.
"Honey I think your right your just surprised and maybe hurt that she hid it from you."
"Yea." I nodded.
"Good you guys will get back to normal at school tomorrow and it will all be fine."
"Thanks mom." I hugged her, "I'm gonna head to bed."
I headed down the hall to my bedroom. It was small but big enough for me to have what I needed. I changed into Pj's and went to bed.
***********************
I woke up the next morning energized and ready for the day. I headed to school ready for what ever the day brought. When I walked into first period I found Kate sitting at our table head in her notebook writing.
"Hey," I announced my presents.
"Good morning." Kate replied. She looked up at me her eyes puffy I could tell she had been crying.
"Whats wrong?" I asked.
"Nothing."
"That's a lie. Is it about last night. It doesn't change anything." I reassure her.
Kate shakes her head. "Just wait you'll find out sooner or later."
The bell rings to start class and I don't get a chance to ask her.
Halfway through the lecture.The school secretary comes on the speaker. "Kate Victor to the office please."
I sit there confused as Kate gets up to leave. She turns and gives me a small smile. without thinking I get up and follow her out.
I pull her aside, "Whats going on?"
"Your saying you haven't heard." Kate glares.
"Heard what?"
"Well there is posters all over the school of me kissing a girl."
"Oh." I stand there in shock.
"So I have to go. Sorry for any inconvenience I've caused you. I've always loved you. Bye." Kate looked at me with lifeless eyes.
I had only seen them once before it was before my dad committed suicide.
"I'm coming with you." I tell Kate.
"No your not." She states.
"Fine then I'll follow you."
"Please don't," Kate whispers.
"I don't know what your planning Kate but you can't leave me. I can't go through that again."
She stops and then continues walking. She changes directions instead of heading to the office she's heading towards the stairs. I just made this worse didn't I.
"Please don't." I can feel the tears coming now.
"I need to don't you get that. No one loves me no one cares. I need to go."
"I love you." I cry.
"No you don't you'll just leave me like everyone else does."
I know what I have to do but I don't want to. I hide my phone and call 911. I know are school would just send her back to class and I need to do something. As soon as a person answers I lift up the phone.
"My friend is suicidal and going to jump."
Kate looks at me with fear in her eyes. She burst into a run and leaves the school.
