The Music Freaks oneshots (REQUESTS CLOSED)

This is home (Henriam) (Transgender! Liam x Henry) (Angst+Fluff)

"We can go out tomorrow and get you some new clothes and stuff, alright...?"

Liam smiled and nodded

"Thank you, mom..."

*End of flashback*

Liam smiled a bit, thinking back on the mostly positive memory

"Oh, to heck with it!!" he said to himself, sitting up. "I'll tell him tomorrow!!"

---

The next day at lunch, Liam was looking around the halls for Henry. He saw Henry walking down the hall, his earbuds in. His music was so loud, you could hear it blasting out of the earbuds

Liam walked up to Henry and stood in front of him, making him lower the volume on his music

"Hey, Liam!" he smiled

"Hi, Henry. Um...before we go find the others, can...I talk to you privately about something...?"

Henry stared at Liam confused. He fully took his earbuds out

"Y-Yeah, sure. Um...rooftop sound like a good place to talk?"

Liam nodded, and him and Henry made their way to the stairway to the rooftop

---

"Sooooo...what's up?" Henry asked, swaying back and forth a bit as he stood in front of Liam

Liam looked down nervous, anxiously fidgeting with the string of his vest

"...first, I...I want you to promise me you won't be angry with me after I say that..." Liam said. Henry started to grow worried. He had no idea what this conversation, that was suddenly sprung on him, would be about

"Um...okay...? L-Liam, you're starting to scare me...just tell me what's going on..."

Liam took a deep breath, then finally got out the secret that had been bugging him for a while

"...Henry, I....I'm transgender...female to male...all my life, I...never really felt like a girl...and when I was in the fifth grade, I...realized I definitely wasn't a girl...I-I started getting my hair cut short, wearing binders...only my mom really knows...a lot of other people at my elementary school called me "the super tomboyish girl weirdo"...I switched elementary schools after fifth grade...I was put in under the name Liam, and...no one ever found out..."

Henry's eyes went a bit wide

"Did...anyone every find out at your old school...?" he asked. Liam crossed his arms, looking down a bit

"Um...y-yeah...a couple kids did find out...I don't even know how, but they did...they'd all poke fun at me...c-call me my deadname...it was awful...I switched cause I was getting bullied and wanted a fresh start...I never told anyone at my new elementary school..."

Henry could tell Liam was scared

"Henry, please...please don't be angry at me about this..."

"What...?!"

Liam looked up at Henry

"I'm not mad at all....!! I-In fact, I'm glad you feel comfortable enough telling me...!!"

"R-Really...?"

Henry nodded. He then took a step closer to Liam, and out his arms around him

"In fact, I...I think it's good we're up here...and it's also good you told me...cause I wanna tell you that...I'm in love with you, Liam..."

Liam turned red, staring at Henry

"I say that I think it's glad you told me cause uh...a key factor in relationships is honesty..."

"I-I love you too...!" Liam smiled before kissing Henry

The two of them stayed like that for about two minutes, then looked at each other

"Um...can we not tell anyone about this yet...? About either thing...?" Liam asked

Henry nodded. "Of course...your secret is safe with me...and I promise, I won't tell anyone about us dating until you're ready for them to know too..."

Liam smiled before hugging Henry

"Thanks, Hen...you're the best..."

"It's not a problem at all...ready to go find the others...?"

Liam looked down at Henry

"Yeah..." he said

With that, the two of them headed off, huge smiles on their faces, and Liam feeling a million times better than he had the day before
