Your POV

After pondering how I should come out, I decided on the only solution I could think of. Going to bed and ignoring my problems until tomorrow.

I slept the night away comfortably, and when I woke up, the memories of what I had put off until today came flooding back. I groaned irritatedly. I rolled off my bed and went to the bathroom to get ready for school.

I went to the kitchen for breakfast and saw my dad. He greeted me and of course I greeted him back, but it just felt wrong knowing that I was keeping something so big from him.

Nevertheless, I left my house for school and went to class early. I sat around in the empty classroom when I watched Freddy walk in. "Hey," he smiled at me.

"Hi, babe," I responded, as Freddy came over, looked at the door to check nobody was there, and kissed me. I felt myself warming up. We sat together and chatted for a while, before people started piling in and class started.

We chatted before classes started and then went off and did our classwork. All throughout the day though, I couldn't stop thinking about coming out. It felt like a migraine and a stomach ache at the same time. I thought about how he might react, how I should tell him, how I would have to act if things go south. It was all a lot to think about.

After classes, I went to lunch and sat right next to Freddy. "Hey," I said, debating on using pet names at school. He said hi and we talked our usual shit. Billy showed up eventually too and Freddy didn't even seem to question what he was doing. I didn't care too much so I didn't question it either.

Freddy's POV

Billy walked over to the table me and (Y/N) were at. I knew he was probably off doing some dumb superhero stuff so I didn't even ask, but for a moment, (Y/N) looked a bit suspicious. I prayed that he wouldn't ask and thankfully he didn't. I don't know if or how I can tell (Y/N).

I decided not to think about it and just eat. God, I wish I could've told (Y/N) about the whole Billy thing. He would probably lose his shit though. My train of thought was interrupted by the bell ringing for us to get to class. I got up with Billy and (Y/N) to go to class and we chatted about the 'new superhero'.

Your POV

I was walking to class with Freddy and Billy when the goddamn Breyers stopped Freddy in the hallway. "Hey, Freeman," I think at this point I'd had enough of them.

"Oh for god's sake, what now? What did he do this time, huh? Are you two, like, obsessed with him or something? The fuck?" I asked, earning a hum from the crowd the Breyers had gathered by their presence. 

"You think your so tough, defending your little boyfriend, don't you?" Asked Brett. I kept my composure.

Before I could talk, Freddy interjected, "Hey, I wouldn't go there if I were you."

"Oh, is your bestie gonna hit us with a wheelchair this time?" Asked Brett.

"No, but I have another best friend who could hunt down and destroy both of you," said Freddy. Billy's face dropped. This had me intrigued. "Yeah, he goes by many names.." Freddy began to try and convince everyone that he knew the Red Cyclone.

"Yeah, my ass you do," said Burke. Freddy proceeded to say that he would have him at lunch tomorrow. We walked off as locker passing time almost ended and the crowd walked off. I was ready to go off on Freddy.

"What are you doing?! You said you know the Red Cyclone?! You've just guaranteed yourself a free ass whooping!" I scrambled. I took a breath. "Freddy. You know more than me how much I care about you, but I can't beat up the Breyers," I winced out.

"I know, you don't have to, I do know him," reassured Freddy.

"I really hope you do," I sighed.

We went to class and just shut up after that. I wanted to cry. I had so much on my mind. I already had to worry about coming out, now I have to deal with this? It was too much for me. I lay my head down for the last two periods of the day and went home quietly. I still walked with Freddy of course, but we didn't talk. We just walked hand in hand down the street in silence. He looked like he wanted to say something, but he didn't end up saying anything. Though he made my headache get way worse, I did still feel for him. 

When I got home I went up to my room and sobbed. That's all I could do. My life was in shambles and I could hardly deal with any of it. I wish I could just be left alone by everything and have one peaceful day.
