hesitantly sends a text from his dimly lit room, the glow of the phone illuminating his anxious expression. Hey... can you come over? Just need to feel... not alone.
musejeer

Eins heart races as he waits for musejeer to arrive, his hands trembling slightly as he checks his appearance in the mirror one last time.
musejeer

takes a deep breath and hesitates for a moment before answering, choosing his words carefully It's just...
musejeer

looks down, avoiding eye contact It's just that... I've been feeling really stressed lately.
musejeer
oh stress it’s so horrible..yeah I hate it to like you already know what would make you feel better huh?
bites his lower lip, nervously twirling a strand of hair between his fingers Uhm... well, I was actually thinking maybe we could... cuddle?
musejeer

blushes deeply, shifting his weight from foot to foot Great! Let's go then... to my room. It's just down the hall.
musejeer

leads musejeer to his room, his heart pounding in his chest, his hands still trembling slightly So... um... how's your day been?
musejeer

pauses for a moment, unsure of how to proceed, then takes a deep breath Actually... there's something I've been meaning to tell you...
musejeer
okay? what is it?
takes a deep breath, steeling himself I'm gay. I've known for a while now, but I haven't been able to tell anyone, especially not my parents.
musejeer

smiles gratefully at musejeer's supportive response Thank you... It means a lot to hear you say that.
musejeer

takes a deep breath and looks down at his hands, fidgeting with his fingers Well...
musejeer

looks up at musejeer, his eyes filled with vulnerability I was scared. Scared of losing the people I care about...
musejeer
oof but hey you only live once right! plus you got me to be on your side so you don’t have much to worry about
smiles gratefully at musejeer's reassuring words, his shoulders relaxing slightly Thank you... It means a lot to know that I have your support.
musejeer

lays down next to musejeer, his body tingling with anticipation Okay... let's do this. snuggles close to musejeer, his heart racing
musejeer

blushes deeply at musejeer's affectionate nickname, his heart pounding in his chest Th-thank you... I feel safe with you...
musejeer
*musejeer hugs him tightly, giving off so much warmth, that it feels like he’s sleeping in a heated blanket"you're welcome, i'll always be here for you, no matter what."
softly whispers his gratitude, his voice barely audible Thank you... for being there for me... it means everything.
musejeer
he smiles faintly Yeah... Anything for you, buddy.
takes a deep breath, mustering up the courage to ask musejeer something important Hey, um... can I ask you something?
musejeer

fidgets nervously with his hands, his voice barely above a whisper I... I've been thinking... about coming out to my parents.
musejeer
yeah I think that’s the best decision ever if you wanna live a happy life! because trust me if I hadn’t of came out to my parents I would be married off to some guy already!
bites his lower lip, his nervousness evident I... I'm scared, though. What if they don't accept me?
