Alex

I was standing in front of the kitchen as my mom turned around to face me.

"What is it hun?" she asked looking a little worried.

"Can we go into the tv room?" I asked. I always felt more comfortable in there.

She nodded and we walked over to the room. She sat in my dad's reclining chair; the only time he ever used that thing was for big games. I sat out on the small couch.

"So what do you need to talk to me about?" she said.

"Um, I'm not sure exactly how to say this… but, you know Mitchie … right?"

"Mhm," she said as she nodded.

"She's kind of my girlfriend." I whispered.

"Excuse me? Your what?" she asked calmly.

"My girlfriend…" I said.

"How long has this been going on? Why didn't you tell me you were… into girls?"

"I… I didn't know. I fell for Mitchie and I never thought that I could possibly have these kind of feelings for a girl… but I do mom. And I'm really falling for her."

"I don't even know what to say Alex." She said.

"Just say that you'll support me… no matter who I'm with."

"Alex you should know better than to think I wouldn't support you. This is just big news to me. You were happy with Nick… What happened?"

"Mom, you know Nick and I broke up months ago… why are you bringing him up?"

"It's just he's a guy… and now you're with a girl… I'm just confused."

"I don't like her because she's a girl, I like her for who she is."

"You have my support. If she makes you happy, then I guess I can get used to it. But you'll have to tell your father Alex … How serious is this relationship?"

"We started dating a month ago… and she asked me to be her girlfriend on Monday."

"So not that serious…"

"Mom, it's serious. I'm falling in love with her." I said blushing.

"Okay Alex. You have my support… but tomorrow when your father gets home, you're going to have to tell him."

"I will. I promise."

"I thought you said Mitchie was coming over today?" she asked as I got up to leave.

"She did, she's upstairs."

"Oh. Keep the door open Alex. Same rules apply now."

"Okay." I said as I left and went up the stairs. I was happy of how the conversation with my mom had gone.

I walked into my room and saw Mitchie lying on my bed facing away from the door. I got closer to her and noticed she was asleep. She looked so adorable. I laid behind her and put my arm around her waist. I gently kissed her neck.

"Don't do that," she said quietly.

"Why?" I whispered.

"It turns me on," she said. I did it again. "Mm, please stop."

She turned around to face me. She stared at me and then closed her eyes, smiling.

"I take it the conversation went well?' she said.

"She's supportive about it. But I have to tell my dad tomorrow."

"Do you think that's going to be more difficult?"

"He's not as open minded as my mom is. I'm just going to spend the day with him tomorrow and then tell him."

"I guess if you'll be busy with that.. then I should go to see my parents. I know they'll want to discuss what happened earlier."

"That was an awkward situation…. Poor Dallas looked so uncomfortable."

"She'll probably fill me in on what my parents are thinking. That will give me an idea of what to say tomorrow."

We lay there for a while. She had turned back around and I had my arm around her waist again. We stayed in that position for what felt like an hour.

"As much as I enjoy being in your arms," she started. "I should probably go home."

We got up and I drove her home. I grabbed her hand before she could get out and leaned in to give her a passionate kiss.

"Good luck tomorrow," she told me.

"You too. Text me when you're done." I replied.

Next Morning

Mitchie

"Hey Dallas, I'm going over to mom and dad's later." I said as I walked down the stairs.

"Good luck with that," she said smiling up at me. She was sitting on the couch watching TV.

I laid down next to her and then rested my head on her lap. She began to play with my hair.

"Was is that bad?" I asked.

"No. They didn't really say anything after you left. They asked me if I knew and I just nodded."

"They didn't say anything to you? Really?"

"No. I think they were too shocked to say anything."

"Should I be nervous?"

"I don't think so. They're already used to you liking girls. And now that they met Alex... even if it was brief.. I think they'll be some what supportive."

"Can I borrow your car?" I asked.

"Yeah, the keys are on the counter. Make sure you're back by seven though… Logan and I are going out."

I got up and hugged my sister. I grabbed the keys and walked over to the car. I drove over to my parents house and took a deep breath before getting out.

"Mitchie!" Maddie answered.

"Hey baby!" I said. "I thought I told you not to be answering the door. What if I was a monster!" I said as I tickled her.

"Stop Mitchie!" she said. I loved seeing my little sister. Not being able to see her was the worst part about living with Dallas.

I picked her up. " I heard someone has a birthday coming up!" I joked.

"Me! Me!" she said.

"What do you want me to get you?" I asked.

"I want a Barbie." She said.

"I think I can do that," I said.

"Hey Mitchie," I heard my mom say.

"Hey mom," I said putting Maddie down.

"What are you doing here?"

"You asked me to come remember?"

"I didn't think you'd come by so soon." She said.

"I had free time. So what's up?"

I followed my mom into the dining room. My dad was sitting in his usual chair, reading the newspaper.

"Hey dad," I said as I hugged him.

"Hey" he hugged back.

I sat down across from him and my mom sat beside us.

"I think you know what we want to discuss." My dad said putting down his newspaper.

"Alex?" I questioned.

" Yes." My mom said. "How long have you two been together?"

"Well, since Monday. But we started dating a month ago." I said.

"Wow, only a month?" my dad said.

"Yeah."

"Are you happy?" my mom asked.

"Could you not tell?"

"Dumb question, sorry. Your father and I want to apologize."

"For what?"

"For what we've put you through the past year. You don't know how many times I go into your old room and wish you were back home."

"I like living with Dallas mom."

"I know. And we aren't going to force you to move back, but just know we are welcome to it if you are. I know we haven't really been supportive of you and we want to change that. We went to your game last night because we knew how important it was for you." My mom said.

"Dallas told us about the scouts and we wanted to support out little girl." My dad added.

"Seeing you last night really made us proud. And we can tell that your girlfriend really makes you happy. We saw the way you went over to her during half time… and how amazing you played afterwards. I'm sorry we've been so ignorant about everything Mitchie."

I smiled. I couldn't believe my parents were finally being supportive.

"I want you guys to meet her… like really meet her." I said.

"Why don't the both of you come over for dinner one day then?" my mom asked.

"We could," I informed them.

I spent the rest of the day hanging out at my parent's house. When I finished with the conversation, I went upstairs to spend time with my little sister. I was happy with the way the conversation had gone. I just hoped everything went well with Alex.

Alex

"Alex," I heard a voice say. I opened my eyes and listened again. The voice repeated my name and I jumped out of my bed.

"Dad!" I said as I ran into his arms.

"Hey." He said.

"How was the trip?" I asked.

"Tiring." He said.

"How long are you here?" I asked.

"About a month," he said.

"And then you're gone for another?" I asked.

"You know that's how it works Alex."

"Yeah. I know." I said sadly.

"Get dressed and we'll go out somewhere." He said.

"Actually I wanted to talk to you about something first."

"Okay, I'm all ears." He said as he sat on my bed.

"Um, I have a girlfriend." I said. I decided to just go straight to the point.

"WHAT!" he asked. "A girlfriend?"

"Yes, her name is Mitchie." I said.

"You're dating a girl?" he asked. He was furious.

"Yes dad. A girl."

"How? You weren't brought up that way Alex. A relationship should be between a man and a woman." He said.

"Some times girls like other girls dad. Welcome to the modern world." I said.

"No daughter of mine is going to be dating another girl. Not in my house!" he said.

"Not in your house?" I said. "A house that we moved into not more than three months ago and you've only lived in it for barely a month? I get that it's your job dad, but you hardly ever live here." I said. I was beginning to get frustrated.

"Don't make this about me, Alex. I do not want you seeing a girl. I should have never moved us here. You were fine with that Nick boy. He was a real gentleman." He said.

"You don't know anything about that." I yelled. " A real gentleman? All he was after was to have sex with me. He never actually cared about me. Mitchie's different." I yelled as I stormed out of my room. I went over to the bathroom and closed the door. I sat on the cold ground, crying.

"Alex, come out." My mom said. I opened the door to let her in. She sat down next to me and wrapped her arms around me.

"Is that the real reason why you and Nick broke up? Did he try to make you do something you didn't want?" she asked. What was with my parents and bringing up my past.

"Yes, mom. But I don't care about him anymore. I found someone who's better. She's not trying to hurt me…" I said. "Why can't dad just see that I'm happy?"

"You know how he is, Alex. Your father is more old fashioned." She said.

"I'm not breaking up with her, mom. She's there for me more than he ever has been." I admitted.

I heard my dad pass by as I said that. He walked over to his room and slammed the door. I got up and went into my room. I locked the door and grabbed my phone.

Alex: Mitchie, if you have your sister's car… can you pick me up?

Mitchie: Yeah, what's wrong? I'm on my way.

Alex: I'll tell you when you get here. Just honk.

Ten minutes later I heard a honk and I left my room. My dad was in the living room talking to my mom.

"Where are you going honey?" my mom asked.

"To spend time with my girlfriend." I said as I walked out.

I got into Mitchie's car and immediately began to breakdown. I cried the entire drive to her house. She parked her car and walked over to my side. She pulled me out and kissed my cheek. She grabbed my hand and we went inside. Dallas was on the couch when we arrived.

"Hey I'm home early." Mitchie told her. Dallas turned around and looked at me.

"You okay?" she asked.

I shook my head. "No." I told her.

Mitchie and I went upstairs to her room. She closed the door and walked me over to her bed. She wrapped her arms around me and we fell back. I positioned myself so I had my arm wrapped around her waist and my head on her chest. I let myself drift off into sleep.
