Coming Out
Seth knew what was coming, so did his family. He had made a promise to the Singing Sisters and he was going to keep it, since he kind of had to to live. Warren would take him to Mississippi and then to where ever else he need to go. However, before going he needed to tell his family and friends something.
Seth walked into the family room filled with his family and close friends namely Vanessa, Tanu ,and Bracken. "Hey guys I need to say something to you before I go to Mississippi tonight," Seth stated breaking the silence that laid I've the room. "What is it, honey?" his mother, Marla, asked him.
Seth's heart started pounding, he knew everyone in the room genuinely loved him but how would they react to what he was about to say."I-I u-u-ummm well I j-just," he started out stumbling over his own words, "W-well,"
"Seth whatever you're gonna tell just say it. It can't be any worse than
healing demons and stealing Bracken's horn," Kendra said giving Seth reassurance that he could tell them this secret and time to find the words to say it.
His face now red and his heart beating faster than he ever thought possible he opened his mouth, forcing himself not to stutter to the best of his abilities, "I'm gay."
Seth got into the small Jeep Warren had brought him in. It had been a week since Seth had told his family the secret about his sexuality.
They pulled into the driveway at the manor. Seth opened his door, knees shaking, imagining his family disowning him because of shame of having a gay relative. Opening the door to the manor Seth was bombarded with rainbow confetti and balloons.
"What the h-" Seth began before his mother shot him a look as if to say Watch your language young man. Before he could even ask another variation of his question he heard Vanessa and Kendra both yell "Surprise!" in unison.
"Kendra and I thought we should throw you a party to congratulate you for coming out," Vanessa said pushing aside a few streamers and setting down her red punch before sitting down on the couch resting her arm on Warren's shoulder.
"Was the rainbow stuff so important though?" he inquired.
Kendra shot him a glare.
"There are snacks in the kitchen, Seth, I helped make them," Bracken told him.
"Are they rainbow too?"
"Maybe," Kendra said to him as he walked up towards the attic.
As Seth walked towards his attic bedroom, stopping by the kitchen on the way there, he fought back a smile. He couldn't believe how well they accepted him, but at the same time he absolutely could.
