       In about an hour, Chloe arrived. In that hour Brooke had showed Chloe's mom the tweets and explained them. Chloe's mom couldn't believe it. Chloe walked in and was surprised to find Brooke standing there with her mom. "Brooke?! What are you doing here?" She said obviously trying to hide the fact that she messed up. "Don't give us that fake smile. Explain to your mom what you did to Michael." Brooke demanded.

       "I didn't do anything." Chloe denied. She couldn't afford to lose her phone again. She had sent some...descriptive...texts to Dustin and she did not want her parents to see those. "Then why did your bestie Brooke just show me pictures you took and things that you wrote about dear Michael?" Her mom said. Chloe was speechless. Brooke and Mrs.Valentine looked at each other and nodded. "Give me the phone." Mrs.Valentine commanded.

       "Just let me delete some things first." Chloe said. Her mom wasn't taking it. She grabbed the phone right out of Chloe's hand and stuffed it in her pocket. "You're not getting this back until the end of summer. Also, you will be calling Michael later to apologize." Chloe's mom said. "Fine." Chloe snapped. Brooke walked out with a smile. She was ready to go home and see Chloe's twitter disabled. Yet, part of her still felt bad. I mean, that was her best friend that she just fucked over. Maybe it was for the better. They really haven't talked since summer started. Plus Chloe really never did anything good for Brooke and Chloe was just taking away from Brooke and not giving back. Brooke thought that it was time for her to get some new friends care about her and give back.

       Rich and Michael wandered the isles of different comic books for a long time. Pointing out different ones they had either been looking for or ones that looked cool to them. Michael hadn't been in there that often. He usually went only when he was looking for something. He had never been in there just to wander before. He enjoyed it and it definitely helped him calm down from the meltdowns he had. The slushie helped too. Michael used to only get slushies alone or with Jeremy. Don't get him wrong, he loved Jeremy no homo though but he was glad to do this with someone else. He loved to watch Rich geek out over different comics he would pick up and look at. He was thankful to have Rich by his side. 

       The two of them hopped back into Michael's PT cruiser with a couple of comic books in a small thin plastic bag. "Thank you Rich." Michael was thankful for the experience. "Y-you're welcome." Rich knew something was bothering Michael. He was just sitting there and smiling which is something Michael never did. Michael usually has a nervous expression. Michael was truly happy.

       Michael pulled into the driveway of his house and stopped for a moment. "I'm ready." He said. "Ready? Ready for what?" Rich got confused. "To come out... to everyone." Michael said proudly.
