The Truth

It was dark at night and a few minutes to the clock striking midnight. 

I planned to stay up for as long as possible and invite a friend over. Usually, time goes by when I am hanging out with someone and doing something, that’s how time flies by. 

Meanwhile, my friend was 15 minutes late. 

15 minutes later, the doorbell rang loudly. 

I let my friend into my small house, and she started to feel really uncomfortable. 

The floor levels were short and nothing felt right in my depressing home anymore. 

Usually, when Kelsey comes, she enjoys her stay and we would go to her place right away afterwards. That’s exactly what happened! I grabbed my suitcase excited and happy to sleep over at Kelsey’s place. 

I knew Kelsey ever since I was 6 years old, and we stayed as friends ever since, especially since our sleepovers were a classic hit and tradition. 

Thankfully, Kelsey knew how to drive in a fancy car and she has her license. As she drove me back to her place, the window was open and I could feel the cool breeze on my face. I loved making myself feel at home and Kelsey was an angel to drive me. 

Kesley took my suitcase up in the elevator all the way to her room and hung up my velvet coat. She was the sweetest and I am so lucky to have her. 

I took the old-fashioned way upstairs, while Kelsey already was lightening the room and turning on the fireplace. The house was very warm and cozy in no time. It was getting pretty late, but we were hungry. 

We dashed to the kitchen where I started gathering ingredients for Kelsey. Kelsey used her creative skills to whip up a great delicious meal for us to eat. 

I was so jealous, she is good at everything! We have a lot in common and that makes me really happy. 

After supper, we went back upstairs and watched a movie while enjoying our popcorn all comfy and cozy. It was amazing just to lie there, relax, eat and watch TV together. 

Afterwards, it was around 11:30 pm and Kelsey already fell asleep.

I tucked and made sure she was happy and I dug my head into her arm. 

Midnight comes and the clock strikes. 

As my heart started to climb fast and I was so nervous. I went from hot to cold and got very bad flashes. 

I had a secret to tell Kelsey. But, I was too nervous and she was still sleeping.

I decided to go to bed, and the plan was to sleep with her the next day. When it strikes midnight, I’ll tell her my secret.

The light from outside was so bright and it woke up the room leaving Kelsey and me still in bed wanting to sleep longer. It was only 7am. 

We found it so hard to sleep. 

Going into Kelsey’s closet to pick an outfit for the day, as well as reaching into my suitcase. 

I wanted to match with her. We both had red pants and a blue jays top. 

We both looked as cute as hell. 

It was a strange rainy day and we knew we couldn’t go anywhere. 

It is hard for us both to plan activities indoors as we both aren’t that type of person. We like the outdoors, and we also enjoy the beautiful nature that surrounds us. 

Normally during this time, I look for activities to do outdoors. I really like going shopping at weird shops in local, coffee shops and bookstores especially help me in distress. 

We were able to find easy crafts to do at home and that’s something we did for a few hours. Afterwards, we did a baking activity and wanted to make a birthday cake for her grandma’s birthday on the weekend. 

It was super fun!

The last few hours of the day passed by super quickly. 

It was almost time for the evening. 

Kelsey let me decide what we did, so I planned to do a face mask and a whole skincare routine for us both. 

I felt calm and relieved. I enjoyed being with Kelsey so much. 

When the evening hit, I know we didn’t accomplish so much but we did get to spend a lot of quality time together. 

This time we ordered Chinese food for takeout and they brought it to Kelsey’s house. 

Both of us, in a friendly way she would consider – shared the noodles with tofu, beef and broccoli, it was tasty and came with soy sauce on the side with dessert. 

For dessert, there was blueberry cheesecake and it tasted like vanilla.

I love vanilla! 

When we started getting ready for bed, I grabbed my notebook and handed it right to Kelsey, making her read it and I left the room. 

She knew it was something, and how I felt so embarrassed and blushed. 

Kelsey was definitely confused. 

She was happy and accepted how I feel, but it turns out she is straight. 

My secret came out – she knows it! I do like her and always had strong feelings for her. 

Ever since that, I wasn’t able to have a sleepover again, it was too awkward, for me, her and both of us. 

I went back into the bedroom to see Kelsey, and she was crying. 

She mentioned how much she felt bad for me, that I’m bisexual but she is straight, and she is interested in someone already, who is a guy. 

I knew I had to accept that. 

We are close already, and it takes a lot to accept that strong emotion, how I’m feeling and just go on. 

Yes, she was fine with continuing to be best friends, and I am grateful.

We both need each other.

Kelsey let me on her phone before we went to bed.

She needed my help and wanted my advice.

I helped her brainstorm what to say to her crush, Ryan. Ryan is fourteen years old, loves working out and has big fat muscles. He is so athletic and attractive. 

That was when we decided to send him a message, and now they are a cute little couple.
