Back at the house

Mother: Where have you two been, I’ve been phoning you for the past hour and half.

Spencer: Sorry mum my phone has been turned off

She sees that I have been crying and walks closer to me

Mother: Spencer, is everything ok,

Spencer: Yeah I’m fine, I just…

Mother: Did some boy do this to you becau…

Spencer: No mum a girl did this to me

Mother: Girls can be so mean

Spencer: No it wasn’t like that mum

Mother: What do you mean?

Just as I’m about to speak Aiden interrupts, jerk-off, sorry I love him but jeez

Aiden: Look, Carla maybe we should all just head to bed it is late

Carla: No, I want to know what she meant, and how many times have I told you to call me mum

Aiden: Sorry

Carla: It’s ok, Spencer what do you mean

Spencer: I’m going upstairs, I’m tired

But before I can get away she grabs me by the arm

Carla: Aiden, you go upstairs, me and Spencer are going to talk

Aiden: It’s ok

Carla: Aiden GO

Aiden looks at me with a sad face and mouths sorry. Jeez thanks for the support…asshole

Carla: Spencer, tell me

Spencer: She broke my heart and not in a friend way ok, I love her and I got nothing but a broken heart, I love her, a girl, bailey, you know her right, my best friend, well I told how I felt.

The tears are starting again and I can’t stop them. Carla walks towards me and just as I think she’s about to give me a hug I feel my left cheek stinging. It takes me a minute to register what just happened. I can’t believe that bitch just hit me.

Spencer: What the hell was that for?

Carla: Don’t use that language with me young lady. You are not gay, I will not have a gay daughter, go to your room, I can’t even look at you.

I decide not to say anything back; I’ve had enough crap for one day, so I head upstairs and into Aiden’s room. He sees the tears and wraps his arms around me. He then moves away to wipe the tears but notices the mark on my cheek.

Aiden: Tell me she didn’t

Spencer: She didn’t

Aiden: SPENCER

Spencer: You just said….

Aiden: I know what I said, I can’t believe she would do that, her own daughter what did she say.

Spencer: That she won’t have a gay daughter and I had to go to my room because she couldn’t even look at me and that she would deal with me tomorrow.

Aiden: Well what’s going to happen tomorrow?

Spencer: Don’t know, she could be digging up my grave as we speak

Aiden: That’s not funny Spence

Spencer: It was a bit, can I stay in here tonight

Aiden: Of course

Aiden goes to the right side but before I can speak he goes to the left side. We both get in and turn off the light.

Aiden: I don’t see why you always have to sleep on the right.

Spencer: Well then if you don’t see the problem you won’t mind would you.

Aiden: Oh ha ha….I love you Spence

Spencer: Love you too
