Chapter 26

Jack's Pov
Me and Zach decided we need to talk to Lauren and Daniel.

We figured out we kinda just need to tell the boys and Izzy and hope they accept us.

I know Lauren will, but I'm worried about the rest of the guys.

"Zach maybe we should tell everyone, I don't wanna keep secrets," I said looking at him "unless you're not ready" he added

"I don't know if I am ready or not, but I mean I guess...I could...I mean" I could see how uncomfortable he was

"It's okay Zach, we don't have to tell them about us, but I am going to come out to them. I need to help Lauren out, she gave me the guts to tell you. I owe her"

"You sure about this?" He asked me

"of course" I smiled

Inside I was kinda screaming but you know what. For Lauren.

"Guyssss" I yelled

"What" they replied

"Can I talk to you...all of you?" I yelled

They all walked down the stairs, the boys sat on one couch and the girls at opposite ends of the other, Lauren and Daniel had been crying and I could tell. It was my fault. I felt so bad.

"What was so important that you needed us to all come down?" Corbyn asked

"Well, I need to sort something out. I caused something awful, and I needed to explain what really happened, Daniel, Lauren, please forgive me" they both looked up at each other and to me then back to the floor

"You don't have to explain anything I know what I saw and that's that," Daniel said standing up and sending a glare towards me and Lauren.

"Daniel please listen, please," I said grabbing his arm

"I went up to talk to Lauren, she is good with Helping people, I was scared and needed to talk to someone about it, it kept me up at night and I needed to get it off my chest to someone. I was so tired that I fell asleep on top of her and that's when you guys walked in, please Daniel, look at me" he lifted his head from the floor "I'm sorry"

"And I'm supposed to believe you just like that?" He asked a tear running down his face

"I don't expect you to, but please for your girlfriend, Lauren. She needs you, she's been crying all day because of my mistake"

"Please Daniel"

He looked at Lauren who had her head to the floor and walked over to her "is this true"

"Yes, it is Daniel, please, believe us, I love you and would never do that to you"

"What was it you were talking about?" Daniel asked Lauren

"I can't tell you," she said chocked

She did that for me.

"Exactly," he said dropping her hands and walking towards the door

"Daniel Wait, I made her promise not to tell anyone...it was about me....being...umm" he turned and looked at me

"What a girlfriend stealer?"

"No...ga....Gay" I said looking at the floor absolutely terrified "I don't like girls like that, I have a boyfriend"

He said nothing but just hugged me

"I'm sorry," he said into my neck "I'm proud of you"

"Well Guys, you heard me, I am gay," I said it again, this time more confidently

Everyone seemed happy for me Zach played along, I know it's not the right time for him to come out, he doesn't feel ready. I'm not going to push him.

"You said something about a boyfriend?" Corbyn asked

"Umm Yeahh I did didn't I," I said trying my best not to look at Zach knowing too well what his face would look like. Scared.

"When can we meet him?!" Jonah asked excitedly

"well I don't know, one day, when he is ready" I smiled looking around the room, Zach sent me a little smile  

"So Lauren" Daniel said "Can I take you somewhere? Movies.? Park? Let's just go do something together"

The two left smiling, hand in hand.

I decided to go call my mom and tell her. I'm scared of telling my dad but I need to tell my mom, I can't not. I tell her everything.
