Chapter 42
We halted a few feet away from the door, he took a hold of my shoulders, "When are you going to tell Alex, Mark, and Shane?"
I looked up at him confused, "Tell them? About what?"
He looked down at me with raised eyebrows, "What else is there to tell them?"
I sighed, he was talking about my gender, "I don't know."
William sighed, "You do know that the longer you drag out this lie the worse it will be when you do tell them, right?"
I nodded, sighing, "But what if they think differently about me? What if they don't want to be friends with me anymore?"
William looked down at me, "Avery, I'm still your friend, aren't I? Almost nothing has changed in our relationship."
I sighed, "Your right."
I sighed, "I might tell Alex, I have to spend a week with him, so that might be a good time to tell him, right?"
William nodded, "Should be fine, at least your telling him. You should think about telling Mark and Shane after Alex. They would be a little hurt but they would still be your friends."
I sighed, "Yeah, I should tell them. Hey, William? Am I a bad friend for not telling them about this?"
William sighed, "Yes, you are being a bad friend, imagine if you found out one of your best friends lied to you about something very important. How would you feel about it?"
I bit my lip, he was right, I would be a little hurt that my friend didn't trust me enough to tell me and that he kept it from the whole time.
I sighed, "Your right. I really should tell them."
William nodded, "Good, they are your friends, they won't judge you...much."
I nodded, "Yeah, I really should tell them."
William patted my head, "Okay, now that I have talked to you, let's go back inside."
I was a little dumbstruck, did he just pat my head? I went back to the club room.
Alex asked to practice with me.
After the club was over, I went home to tell Adam about my discussion with Willaim and that I wanted to tell Alex while going on tour with him for a week.
I opened the door, "Hey, Ad-" Oh, crap. His friends are here, I cleared my throat, "Hey Avery, I'm home."
Adam smiled, "Hey bro, welcome home, now I know what you're going to ask, there is food in the fridge." He pointed to the kitchen.
I smiled at the girls, giving them a wave, before quickly walking into the kitchen and grabbing food from the fridge, I closed the fridge door with my hip because I was too lazy to put my food down first.
I was eating my dinner when Adam yelled, "Adam, can you please come here for a minute?"
I sighed, thinking to my dinner, I'll see you later, my love, wait for me.
I walked to where Adam was, "What's up?"
Adam pointed to his friends, "1-10 how pretty would you rate these girls?"
I shrugged, "Your all 10s?"
Adam nodded, "See? I told you, you guys are all beautiful, even my brother says so."
The girls smiled, "Yeah, I guess you were right."
I asked, "Can I go back to my food now?"
Adam nodded, "Yeah."
I hurried back to my love, oh finally, I'm back together with my food.
I finished my food 15 minutes later and quickly hurried to my room. I shut the door and changed my clothes to my regular t-shirt and shorts.
I grabbed my Kindle and flopped onto my bed, I turned it on and started reading, after what seemed like minutes, I heard the girls leave, I checked the time, wow, 2 hours have passed, time flies when you are sucked into a book.
I got up and stretched, "Uggghhhggghhh, ooooh, that felt good." I grabbed my clothes and went to the bathroom, I took a shower and brushed my teeth, I said good night to Adam and walked to my room.
I grabbed my Kindle again, it was 7:42 and read for a few hours.
When I finally felt sleepy it was 11:39, I sighed and put my Kindle away. I closed the lights and fell asleep.
And thus, ended my day.
