Danielle

I woke up to my annoying alarm clock screaming in my ear. I quickly smacked it off.

I sighed and sat up on my comfy warm bed. I shakily stood up and flicked my light on. The intense white blinded me for a second and I closed my eyes until they adjusted.

I grabbed a outfit from my closet and set it on my bed. Then I quickly take a shower.

I brushed my teeth and dried my hair. My hair straightened naturally and had a nice wind blown look to it. I stepped out of my bathroom and walked over to my bed to throw my clothes on.

After I was ready I grabbed my school ID from my dresser. Then I walked downstairs. A grab a piece of toast from my little brothers breakfast plate and smile at him when he growls at me. I ruffle his twelve year old dirty blonde hair and then blow a kiss to my mom who is playfully glaring at me.

"Love you guys bye!" I yell as I leave the house. I take my keys out of my pocket and throw my backpack in my jeep.

I got my awesome jeep from my dad on my seventeenth birthday. I named him Toby. I'm eighteen now and still haven't had one crash in him. I'm proud.

I turn up my radio as I make the small trip to school. Today was the day, I think. I pull into the parking lot and slide into my favorite spot in the third row.

I walked into school in a hurry, I wanted to find my friends quickly.

Today is the day, I repeat to myself. I was so nervous. I was finally going to tell them I liked girls.

I was praying that they didn't hate me afterwards.

I walk to my locker and fling my stuff into it. I pulled out my phone and looked for any new texts. After putting my phone away, I scanned the hall for my best friend Sam. She was cool we've been besties since forever.
I couldn't seem to find her so I walked into the bathroom to fix up some of my makeup.

I looked in the mirror. I had light brown hair with blonde undertones. It was meddium length. I have tanned skin and brown eyes. People say I'm pretty and I see why they think that but I've seen prettier.

After putting on another layer of lipstick I walk out of the restroom. I spot Sam and some of my other friends hanging out at her locker. I take a deep breath and tell myself everything's going to be fine.

I speed walk over to my group and say hi loudly to get there attention. Everyone turns and looks at me with a smile.

I get nervous again. I rub the palms of my hands on my jeans. "Guys I need to tell you something" I said. My friends looked at me expectantly. "You can tell us anything Danni you know that girl." Sam giggled at me but still looked a little worried.

I gulped. "Ok....well...I think I like umm...girls" I whispered the last part so quietly I didn't think they heard me. No one said anything for a while.

I looked up and saw a lot of shocked faces. Then I heard someone start laughing. It was Sam. Her laugh made everyone else start cracking up. I glared at them.

"What's so funny?!" I said.
"Danni you have liked boys since elementary" Josh my other bestie teased me.
"Ya April fool's is tomorrow D." Sam snickered.
"I'm not kidding" I growled a little but they didn't hear me over their laughter.

I couldn't believe this, they were supposed to be my friends and believe me. What the heck. I thought.

I was getting mad after their laughter continued for a few minutes. We were drawing attention from other students.
That's when I got an idea. I thought up my master plan quickly and then looked for someone to help me out.

I searched the faces of the hall and then settled on a friendly and familiar figure. I knew this girl was bi and she was cute so she would be perfect. I called her name

"Lia!"

************************
Lia

I was running late. Again. I was rushing to my locker. It was hard to get though all the people. I was short about 5'4 and couldn't really see over anyone. But I spotted my boyfriend Tyler standing by my locker. He hadn't seen me yet and I smiled thinking I might be able to scare him.

Before I got to him though my name was called.

"Lia!" I turned to find the source. I saw Danielle smiling in my direction and felt my heart leap. Oh no. I thought. I'd had the biggest crush on her since sophomore year. I smiled shyly back at her, she waved me over and I sighed. Then walked toward her.

"Yes. Do you need something?" I asked. She turned her eyes to her friends, who were laughing loudly at something. I rolled my eyes and turned around to see if Tyler was still by my locker.

"Yes actually" Danielle said as she grabbed my wrist and pulled me infront of her group of friends.

I looked over my shoulder and made eye contact with Tyler. He frowned at me. I rolled my eyes and threw my chin behind me showing that I'd be right there after I helped this girl. He smiled and started making his way though the crowd towards me. I smiled excited to have him coming closer.

I really loved him.

My attention was forced back on Danielle  when she got her friends attention.
"Hey! Guys watch this!" She yelled. I looked at her confused.
She pulled my wrist forward and stepped closer to me. She got dangerously close to me, invading my personal space. I gave out a confused yelp as I felt my body be pulled into hers.

Warmth invaded my body, then I felt a soft foreign substance touch my lips. I blushed realizing what was happening.

I reached up my hands to Danielle's shoulders preparing to push her away. But she pulled my arm again and deepened our kiss. That's when my brain went fuzzy.

I've never kissed a girl like this, sure I've had a girlfriend. But we only had a peck or two. This was way different. And I didn't even permit it.

I knew I was in deep Shmmmmmer when I heard a familiar voice shout.

"What the hell?!" Tyler yelled across the hall at us. I quickly pushed Danielle away from me, then I just stared at her. Her face was flushed and her eyes were dark. She was frowning and had a shocked/confused look on her face.

I felt someone pinch my shoulder painfully. I winced. I knew it was Tyler. He has anger issues. I was scared because his anger has never been directed to me. I turned around slowly staring at the floor.

"What was that!" Tyler screamed at me. I flinched. Tyler put his hand under my chin and he pulled up roughly.

"Hey" I heard someone softly from behind me.
"Stay out of this!" Ty yelled. He grabbed my arm and started pulling me away. He was hurting my arm but I didn't have the confidence to tell him to let me go.

The warning bell went off as we walked towards me locker. He pushed me forward so my back was leaning on it. He put his hand next to my head.

Tyler was a few inches taller than me so I knew he was glaring down at me. I tilted my head up slightly. I caught a glimpse of his stare and immediately looked back down.

"Ty i-"
"Don't Ty me Lia, how could you?! You know how much I love you! How can you do this to me!" He yells. I didn't know what to say so I just stayed silent.

He slammed his hand into the locker next to my head
"Answer me!" He screamed.
"I-I'm sorry Ty" I felt hot tears start forming in my eyes. A teacher looked at us worried and made her way over,
"Is there a problem over here?" She asked sternly. Tyler glared at me.
"No" he said, then he leaned down close to me and growled I'm my ear. "We are over" then he walked away to his class.

I stood there shocked for a minute. Tears were still running down my face. I came back to my senses when the teacher touched my arm asking if I was ok. I didn't answer I just turned and walked away wiping my face.

What just happened I thought to myself.
