This is the story of me and my big brother, Dave. But before we get there maybe I should tell you a little about myself. My name is Anna… Well Anna Elizabeth Claire Karofsky to be exactly. I'm Seventeen years old and a junior at McKinley High. I'm 5 foot 2 inches, blonde, and blind as a bat. My favorite color is purple and I like long walks on the beach. By now I'm sure you all are sitting there thinking "Why Have I never heard of you before?" Well that's because I try to make myself invisible. My brother being who he is… I don't want the attention. Yes, being the little sister of David Karofsky has its perks, like I've fortunately only been slushied once, when I was a freshman, big brother stepped in quietly and made sure that it never happened again. There is also a lot of negatives to being a world class nerd and introvert with a big bad jock for a brother, like my dad always asking "Why don't you join the Cheerios?" or my mom "If you get your head out of those damn Harry Potter books maybe you'd actually have a date once in a while!" but I just sigh and move on because really the only reason I would ever want to be remotely popular at this damn school is so my brother would actually talk to me in public.

Anyways this is again the story of me and my brother. Being only little bit more than a year apart me and Dave used to be really close. I'm using used because once High school hit for him I was still in Junior high and that year changed everything, but we aren't there yet. When we were close we were literally each other's best friends. We did almost everything together, We'd play video games like Super Smash Brother's and Pokémon for hours, until we'd get bored and play with my collection of Barbie's . I always had the best time with him. We would go out to this local park and climb trees and build forts till it was dark and we would sneak back home and get in trouble for staying out late. My first day of Kindergarten I was scared and crying so he held my hand and sat with me on the bus telling me it wasn't so bad and the Kindergarteners and First graders had the same recess time so he would come play with me. He was literally the best big brother any girl could ask for.

Then He went to high school and all of our happy fun time ended. We still rode the same bus together but after that first day he wouldn't sit with me let alone talk to me. I was crushed. Apparently one of his new high school friends, a guy named Azimio, told him that being friends with a nerdy 8th grade girl, let alone his sister, wasn't cool and if he wanted to stay on the football team he'd better stop talking to me.

This happened the summer after my first year of high school. During school Dave didn't know me but when summer hit we were best friends again. We were outside playing football like we normally did when it was nice out. "Hey Dave, Do you think it's weird that… that I don't even like boys… I mean… not like I'm supposed to."

"What do you mean?" Dave was really concerned; all he wanted then was for me to be a little more popular so we could talk again during school. Things were really messed up then, but I tolerated his stupidity for moments like these.

"I mean, I don't like boys, I don't find them attractive… at all… in fact… I... I'd rather date girls."

"You'd rather do what?"

"I'd rather date girls Dave… I mean… I think I'm a lesbian. I don't know never mind it's stupid. I shouldn't have said anything." I remember looking down at the ground when Dave stopped throwing the ball and walked over to hug me.

"It's not stupid lil' sis. Can I tell you something? I think I like boys… But you can't tell anybody okay!"

"Dave… who am I going to tell? You won't talk to me at school any way." Yup there I said it. Two years of pent up feelings and I say that after we both come out, and all it is, is barely an audible whisper.
