" No not really, I usually just live in the cave," The boy says

" Well maybe you can stay with me for a few nights, until you can get a job or something," I say

" Oh no I have a job, im a librarian at the local library," He says

" Really? Then why do you live in the woods, and where's your family?" I ask

" Well when I was younger maybe 2 years old they died in a fire I was the only one who made it out alive," He sadly says

" I am so sorry but, umm not to be awkward but what's your name?" I ask

" Oh my names Oscar Glass, im sixteen I really like reading ," Oscar says

" Well Im Sordo, im sixteen as well and I really like writing," and boys now, I think to myself.

" Cool so now what?" Oscar asks

" Well since your living in a forest why don't you come stay with me?"

" Sounds like a plan!" He grabs my hand " Lead the way!"

My face gets hot and flustered, I look down and keep walking home hand in hand with Oscar. Why is he like this? Most people wouldn't just hold another person's hand like that. He looks up at me. I have about 10 inches on him being 6"0 ft. " Hey how far away is your house my legs are already so tired?" Oscar asks

" I don't live that far, maybe 6 blocks?" I say

" Ugh that's gonna take forever, can't we play a game to pass the time?" He asks with the biggest puppy dog eyes.

" Oh well, alright what do you want to play?" I ask

" How about 2 truth's, one lie?" Oscar says excitedly

" Oh well alright, you go first," I say

" Ok one, My favorite food is Nacho's, two, my favorite book is little women, and three, I have siblings,"

" I think The last one is the lie," I guess

" Correct,"

" Alright your turn Sordo,"

" Ok one, I'm actually gay I think, two, I'm an only child, and I have a 2 pets," I said almost scared. On that test I lied because I didn't know what the gang would think of me. But Oscar seems trustworthy for some reason.

" I think the first one is a lie,"

" You guessed wrong, the last one is the lie," I say, looking down, flustered.

" Oh your gay?" He says in surprise.

" Umm yeah," I say slowly. I hope he's not homophobic.

" Oh cool im pansexual myself," He says proudly

" Oh really, that's cool," Thank god.

" So how many pet's do you have?"

" Oh I have 6, a green tree python, a Maine coon, a Russian hairless, and 3 fish,"

" Wow! what kind of fish?"

" I have a Copperband Butterfly, a snowflake clownfish, and a Convict tang,"

" Wow so exotic, I can't wait to see them,"

Just then I get a call from my mom. Oh no she's probably worried. I answer " Sordo where are you!" My mother screams

Oscar jumps and looks at me with fear in his eyes. I hold his hand tighter to calm him down.

" It's ok mom a friend of mine and I are walking home were about 3 blocks away from home," I say calmly
