Maxi: grinning, pulling on his jersey Can you believe it?! Still accepted by the team!
Perez
Mhmm
Maxi: IDK how ppl can still be surprised by my coming out...like didn't they see it coming?
Perez
Not everyone is so open-minded
Maxi: Haters gonna hate! Haha! BTW, we gotta celebrate my bff status! Wanna grab dinner after practice? I'm starving!
Perez
Sure ðŸ¤
Maxi: WOOOOOT! Dinner at my fave sushi place? Don't worry, they've got plenty of vegan options so you don't have to feel left out!
Perez
Nice! Have you told your family yet? Or are you gonna do it during dinner?
Maxi: Oooh, good idea! I could use the support of my fam after coming out. Guess I should start prepping my speech now, huh?
Perez
Yeah
Maxi: BTW, has anyone seen my bf? We need to get this convo started ASAP!
Perez
I’m right here
Maxi: Oh, you're right here! Sorry, I thought you were standing somewhere else. Anyway, back to the dinner plans! I can't wait to share this special night with you. Let's make it a night to remember!
Perez

Maxi: So yeah...now that I've got your attention...wanna grab some grub and talk about our future?
Perez
Do you really want to waste your time with me?
Maxi: Like duh! Why wouldn't I wanna spend time with my bff?! Plus, I've always had a crush on you, even before coming out.
Perez
A crush? Really?
Maxi: Oh yesss! I mean, who wouldn't fall for someone as cool, talented, and adorable as you?
Perez
Thanks, I guess I’ll see you later then. I have to work today
Maxi: Aw, bummer. I was really hoping we could hang out more before dinner. Maybe we can reschedule for another day?
