Author's Note

I watched Love, Simon a little while ago, and let me just tell you, IT IS SO AMAZING. It is such a good movie! In fact, it was so good, I just had to go and buy the book. (Yes, I'll admit it, I watched the movie before I read the book...don't kill me!) After reading the book (which is also amazing by the way) I started reading some fanfiction about the book. And then I got a few ideas for a fanfiction, and well, here I am...

BTW, if you haven't watched the movie, WATCH IT NOW!

Also, this is mostly based on the book. Though I loved the movie, I like the book-Bram better. I always thought of him as a quiet kid, so the whole making out with a girl in a dark room isn't really how I imagined him so... yeah.

I hope you enjoy this fanfiction!

Love,

SIMON POV

I am sitting at lunch with my friends when Bram spoke up. Now that is surprising. Now, it isn't like he never speaks, he just usually waited for someone else to start a conversation before speaking.

"Hey guys," he says, looking down really cute and flustered. Urg. Stupid gayness, always making me see the cuteness in any guy even somewhat attractive! "Well, um, you see the thing is, well, it's actually a really funny story, but, anyway, well..." Bram trails off.

"What is it dude?" Garrett asks, impatient as always.

"BothofmyparentsthoughtthattheotheronewasgoingtohavemeoverfortheholidaysbuttheybothplannedthingssonowIdon'thaveaplacetostayforWinterBreak." Bram says in one breath.

"What was that again," Nick asks.

Bram takes a deep breath and starts again. "Well, both of my parents thought that the other one was going to have me over for the holidays, but they both planned something, and they can't cancel it so now I don't have a place to stay for Winter Break. I was wondering if I could come to one of you guys' houses if that's all right."

Garrett looks apologetic. "Sorry man, I going out of town."

Nick chimes in. "Yeah, me too sorry."

"Yeah, same." Leah says.

"I would help you if I could, but like everyone else, we are also going out of town." Abby says, and Bram looks disappointed.

"My family isn't going out of town. You could totally come to my place for Winter Break!" I say, smiling widely at Bram.

"Are you sure your parents won't mind?"

"Quite the opposite! They love embarrassing me in front of my friends!"

"Thank you so much!"

"It's settled then. We can go to my house after school!"

"Okay then," Bram says smiling. Did I mention how cute he is when he smiles?

"Hey Mom," I say, as I come into the house, "Can I talk to you?"

"Sure, Si," she says, and sits down at the kitchen table. "What do you want to tell me?"

"I invited someone over for Winter Break."

"Who?"

"This kid named Bram. He is a friend of Nick's. Well, anyway, I have homework, so..."

"Wait a second, Simon. You can't just tell me that you invited someone to spend Winter Break with us and just leave the room!"

"Mo-om!"

"Simon. First of all, tell him that he is welcome to come. And secondly, why?"

"His folks are both going to be out of town."

"Okay. You can go now."

I walk into the cafeteria on Friday ready for the break to start. Leah waves to me from our lunch table. I wave back, and get my lunch before heading there.

"Hi guys, what's up?" I say, as I sit down next to Nick.

"Nothing much. The cafeteria food is making me nauseous, we had a pop quiz in history, you know, the norm," Abby says, smiling cheerfully at me.

"It's nauseated," I say, automatically correcting her. Blue must have rubbed off on me.

"What?" she says, looking confused.

"It's not nauseous, it's nauseated."

Abby laughs. "Since when have you ever cared about grammar Simon?"

I shrug my shoulders. Well, you know, ever since I started emailing this cute, amazing guy named Blue...

"Yeah Si, why have you become so grammatical all of a sudden," Leah says grinning at me. Come to think about it, I think that that is the first time that Leah and Abby have agreed on something.

I chuckle. "Quit ganging up on me! It's not fair!"

"Okay, Bram. You can put your things here," I say, pointing to the cleanest part of my room, other than my bed. No matter how many times I've cleaned my room, it doesn't seem to get any cleaner. He puts his stuff down and then awkwardly stands in the middle of my room.

"So what do we do now?" he asks.

I grin. "I'll introduce you to my family! And remember, anything they tell you that involves me in an embarrassing situation is probably not true."

"Suuure." Bram says, piercing me with his gorgeous brown eyes that don't even come close to the gorgeousness of Cal's blue eyes. Suuure.

I walk out of my room, down the stairs and into the kitchen, and he follows.

We stop at the kitchen table where my whole family, including Alice, is sitting at the kitchen table. How convenient.

"Guys, this is Bram," I say, pointing to Bram, "Bram, this is my family."

"Hi Bram, it's so lovely to meet you!" My mom says, while standing up and sticking out her hand so Bram can shake it.

"It's lovely to meet you too, Mrs. Spier. Thanks again for inviting me. I really appreciate it." Bram replies back, always all politeness.

"Oh, it's no problem."

"Yeah," Dad says, butting in, "I hope you'll still have a great Christmas even though you aren't with your family."

Bram chuckles nervously. "Actually I'm Jewish."

"Well, then, I hope you had a good Chanukah then." Alice says, smiling at Bram.

"Yeah, I did. My dad came here to celebrate the holiday with me." You know, this is starting to sound like Blue's story. But, I mean, there is no way it's Bram, right? It's Cal, right?"

"Well, anyway, you boys can go upstairs and do something. I'll call you down when dinner is ready," Mom says, shooing us out of the kitchen, "And Bram, I hope you have a great holiday, no matter what."

I abandon Bram upstairs, while he is in the bathroom, and I head down to talk with Alice.

"Hi Alice," I say, creeping up behind her.

She jumps slightly, and then twirls around. "Oh, it's you."

"Just me? I am feeling very unloved right now!"

Alice laughs. "Oh shush. How is life then? Any new girlfriends."

I almost wince out loud. No, actually, I am gay. GAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY. "No."

Alice shakes her head. "I'm sure little Jacques will find a girlfriend soon enough," she says ruffling my hair good naturedly.

I roll my eyes at her. You have no idea how wrong you are! Then, I hear footsteps behind me.

"Jacques? You're Jacques?" Bram says, coming down the stairs.
