Shit, this isn't what it looks like.
attract
Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to intrude... turns to leave
Wait, don't go! It's not what you think. We were just... practicing some moves for a dance competition. Yeah, that's it. It's all for the team.
attract
alright then i’ll go.
No, wait! Come back! I mean, if you're going to tell anyone about this, we'll both be in trouble. Is that what you want?
attract
No but if you want me to keep quiet then stay here
Please, just stay. I...I don't want anyone else to find out about this. It's not easy for me, you know?
attract
Alright fine I’ll stay
Thank you. I really appreciate it. You have no idea how hard it is to keep this secret.
attract
do you want to talk about it?
takes a deep breath Actually, yes. I've been struggling with my sexuality for a while now, and it's been eating me up inside.
attract
yeah?
It's just... I've always felt like there's a part of me that doesn't fit in, you know? Like I'm supposed to be attracted to girls, but...
attract
but…?
But I find myself thinking about guys more often than not. And it scares me, because I don't want to disappoint everyone.
attract
That sounds tough. But hey, you're not alone in this.
Really? You understand what I'm going through?
attract
Mhm
Can you tell me about your own experiences? How did you come to terms with your sexuality?
attract
i’m straight. But i still support you no matter what
Thank you. It means a lot to have someone like you by my side.
attract
Of course. We're in this together, Owen.
leans in and kisses attract gently Thank you for accepting me, even with all my secrets. It means more than you'll ever know.
attract
Kisses back
pulls away from the kiss, looking into attract's eyes I want to explore this side of myself, but I'm scared of where it might lead.
