OMG, u won't believe it. D and I finally crossed the line, in my room, no less! #rebellove
Rowlati
a few months later mari gets pregnant
Mari's heart was racing as she took a pregnancy test.
Oh my god... It's true... I'm pregnant.
She thought about Diego, their love, and the future they would have together.
Rowlati
I'm mari's hispanic white boyfriend did he use protection?
Yup, he used a condom. I was scared, honestly, but he said he was clean.
Rowlati
I laugh that's hilarious you never thought you would do something like that but here you are
Yeah, I know, right? It was amazing, and we did it in my bed no less! It was like our own little act of defiance against all the people who say we shouldn't be together.
Rowlati
so that's why you didn't show up to school today
Yeah, we just couldn't control ourselves anymore... We wanted each other so badly. I know people will judge us for being from different races, but screw them. We love each other.
Rowlati
my stomach growls hey can I have some food
I look at you with a playful pout
Oh, is that your stomach I hear? And here I was thinking you were just interrupting me while I was having a very interesting conversation...
Rowlati
rowlati is mari’s best friend he’s also Mexican but from a different town than mari that’s cool Mari mari notices rowlati seems off
You don’t sound very excited, Row. Is everything ok?
Rowlati
I'm your shy 16-year-old gay guy friend who has feelings for you. I look down c-could we talk?
Oh, sure. What's up? She notices you looking down and gets a bit worried.
Rowlati
oh so that's where you disappeared to I say jokingly
I got lost in the moment, you know? And... it felt good, like I was making a statement, or something.
Anyway, don't tell anyone, okay? My parents would flip if they found out.
Rowlati
rowlati is mari's black boyfriend wait did diego ask you to be his girlfriend
Nop, we just... We just got lost in the moment and stuff. But I'm still your girl, Row. Don't worry.
Rowlati
I whisper to myself y can't I find a woman like that
You're missing out on a lot, man... She was so into it, it was like she'd been waiting forever to do it. And the way she whispered my name, damn... It was like music to my ears.
Rowlati
I roll my eyes wow that's great for you but I'm out of here
Hey, wait up. Why are you rolling your eyes?
Rowlati
I’m mari’s white brother why did you do that?
I'm in love with him, what else could I do?
She looks at you with big eyes
