Chapter 2

Riley and I walked home soaking wet, shoes in our hands and our feet covered in sand.

He stopped walking and waited for me to stop too. 

“What?” I asked him

“Cara, I have to tell you something.” He said looking ashamed 

“What is it, Is it bad?” I said. I’m sure I sounded worried

“I don’t think I’m quite right.” He said looking down 

“What do you mean Riley?” 

I looked into his gorgeous eyes. 

“Don’t do that to me Ri.”

“Cara, I think I might be gay..” 

“What!?” I said choking on my words.

“Lately, I just haven’t found girls attractive.” Riley mumbled 

“How long have you been thinking like that?” I asked

“Few Months..” He admitted 

“Why didn’t you tell me sooner?” I questioned 

“I didn’t know how to tell you to be honest.” 

Riley was whispering at this point.

“Besides I was still pondering the idea in the first place.” Riley said

“Of being gay or telling me?” I asked

“Both..” Riley said sounding ashamed. “Please don’t be mad Car..” 

“Why would I be mad?!?” I joked “My best friend is gay!” 

“SSSHHH!” Riley added

I was happy for Riley, really I was. But there was still that part of me that ached inside. I really did love Riley, In more ways then one.

“Cara?” Riley called. “You’re not going to tell anyone...Right?”

“Of course not!” I said kissing him on the cheek.

Riley smiled.

“I knew I could trust you”
