Being completely honest -- Fall 2013
I needed to open up and tell someone what was going on. I had waited for what seemed to be forever to be honest with myself and everyone else. I saw my best friend sitting in a chair reading a book. I walked up to Leo and sat down by him. I leaned forward with my elbows on my knees. "Leo... I need to just get something out... I have been lying to myself and to everyone. And I just need to talk it through and be honest about something... do you have time to talk?" I questioned. I knew sometiems when you were in the middle of a book one did not want to be disturbed. I just hoped that Leo would listen.

Declan was not even giving me a chance to greet him. With a bemused smile on my face, I nodded at my friend. "Of course I will listen to you," I said. He was a couple of years older than me, but we had instantly clicked. He was definitely my guy best friend while Sedona was my female best friend. Declan was almost more like a big brother to me than anyone. "What's going on, Dec? You don't necessarily seem freaked out, but at the same time you're panicking. I'm a little lost," I admitted.

I smiled a little bit at Leo. "Sorry... I'm just... I'm finally realizing who I am. And I don't know how you'll take it," I said nervously. I knew some people would not be okay with having a guy friend hwo was gay -- espeically when you thought they were straight for allt hese years. If elt horrible for not getting the tugts tos ay this earlier.

I smiled at my friend. "Dec, you know you can talk to me about anything," I informed him. Since when did we ever worry about what the other person thought? "What's up, mate?"

Re: Being completely honest -- Fall 2013
I may as well just say it bluntly. I was not one for beating around the bush. "Leo," I said, hoping my friend would not freak out. A lot of people would change their minds about me completely knowing this. "I'm gay... and I really hope that doesn't bother you because I don't want to lose our friendship.. but you're practically a brother to me, so I wanted you to hear it from me rather than through the rumors of everyone else at school." I was talking rather quickly due to being unsure if I should continue to explain myself or not to him.

I put a hand on Declan's shoulders, smiling at him. "Dec, I know," I told him. I nearly laughed at the expression on his face. "We've been friends for awhile now... you've never had a girlfriend, you say a lot of things that my female cousins comment on... I put together the pieces." It was no big deal in my opinion. I was just glad that he had finally told me.

I was really kind of shocked that Leopold was that observant that he knew I was gay. I ran a hand through my hair and chuckled slightly. "Why did you never say anything?" I inquired. I would have thought he would have asked just to see if htey were right or not.

I smiled at him. "I didn't ask because I figured you'd tell me when you were ready. I wasn't going to force you to tell me. It's really not a big deal to me, mate," I assured him. I could understand why he would be scared to come out, but I wanted him to kno for sure that I did not mind at all.

I really was not sure if I deserved a friend like Leo, but I was glad that I had him. I grinned at him. "You're the best, Leo," I assured him.

I clapped him on the shoulder. "You know it to be true," I said, grinning at him. "And now i have a huge favor to ask you, mate." I was completely stumped with my Astronomy homework and I could use the guidance of someone who had taken this level before to help me out. I just hoped that Declan would be able to remember enough to be of help to me.

I laughed and nodded at him. "Anything," I assured him. "What do you need? I mean, if it's advice on the ladies... I won't be much help," I joked, knowing that would elicit an eye roll from him.

Of course Dec would get to that point. Laughing, I shook my head. "No, it's not ladies," I assured him. "I try not to deal with ladies that much right now... they're too complicated." I showed him the problem in the Astronomy homework. "What do you think? Am I on the right track...?"

I looked his parchment over and pulled out a quill, dipping it into some ink. I started to cross a few things out. "There, you should be good now. Do you see what you were doing, though?" I asked, wanting him to understand his mistakes that I corrected for him. That was the only way he would learn.

I looked over what Declan changed and tried to see what he said I was doing wrong, but I just could not. I sighed and looked up at him, a slight smile on my face as an apology. "No... I sitll have no clue," I said honestly.

Smiling and being patient, I grabbed a scrap piece of parchment to write out my thought process without killing his homework. I made sure that Leo understood everything. "Got it now, bud?" I asked, not necessarily meaning to diminish Leopold by calling him 'bud' but I was older than him by a few years.
