20 days until the anniversary

     (Y/n) had decided that it wasn't fair of he only came out to Aaliyah. He knew everyone else in his friend group better. He may have had a good reason to come out to Aaliyah first, but he should at least tell his best friend, right?

     So that was his plan for the day. Coming out to Chase and Dalia. And that probably won't be as easy as it was to Aaliyah.

     (Y/n) had just arrived at school and saw his friend group standing at the gates. Chase and Dalia usually came together to school and Kiana is always one of the first students in school. Aaliyah will be coming later than everybody else, as always.

"Hi, what's up?", (Y/n) greeted as he walked towards his group. The reactions of his three friends were very different.

Chase just said hello back, like a normal person would. Dalia also said hello, but with a smirk on her face, making (Y/n) know that she has some kind of plan in her head. If it weren't for Kiana's reaction, (Y/n) would question what her plan is for. Because Kiana simply turned red, looked somewhere else and just gave the boy a short wave.

     (Y/n) had to refrain himself from sighing loudly. How long would it take for Dalia to understand that (Y/n) was not interested in dating Dalia?

"Ahh, I'm not late!", a loud suddenly called out behind the Quartett. It was no other than Aaliyah, who immediately went to the group. "I woke up so late today! Glad I was able to make it in time".

"You really came in the last minute", Chase said, the bell ringing just as he finished the sentence.

"Well, as Long as I'm not late, I don't care", Aaliyah answered the older boy and went inside, the other four following closely behind.

     (Y/n) had noticed throughout the whole day how Dalia gave him her weird smirks and how Kiana tried her best to avoid the boy as much as possible. (Y/n) started to get annoyed.

     At lunch the group sat together as usual. Aaliyah, Kiana and Elena on one side of the table, (Y/n), Chase and Dalia on the other side. (Y/n) wanted to get his coming out going as soon as possible, just so he could escape Dalia's weird stares. He wasn't even to scared of Dalia's and Chase's reactions anymore.

     Aaliyah was currently trash talking one of her teachers, while the others just listened and ate, leaving a few remarks here and there. It's usually just Dalia and Aaliyah leading the conversations. Kiana talked the least out of the group.

"I had him too last year. In Science. God, he was awful!", Dalia agreed with Aaliyah's statement, saying that her teacher was "a little bitch who needs to stop picking on his students".

"I'm going to the bathroom", (Y/n) said, after Kiana gave him another shy look, as if she wanted to talk to him but doesn't know how. Dalia obviously saw that look and gave the two a teasing smirk again. (Y/n) was sick and tired of it. He had to come out now.

Not waiting for an answer (Y/n) stood up and left the table.

"Is it just me or is he mad about something?", Aaliyah asked, continuing to eat her salad.

(Y/n) locked himself in a bathroom stall, before calling his boyfriend. "I believe you have the answer to my question, since that thought has crossed your mind countless of times before. Is it illegal to kill my friends?".

"Um, hello to you to?", Kenma just answered, immediately noticed that his boyfriend is angry about something. "As far as I know, killing your friends is illegal. But what the police doesn't know won't hurt them. But now tell me, what did they do? Do I need to fly over there and slap a bitch for you?".

"As if you'd win in a fight against them. You're like 5'6", (Y/n) laughed. Chase was three inches taller than Kenma, so there would be no way for Kenma to beat him.

     "5'6.9, actually. And don't underestimate me", Kenma just answered again. "Now, what did they do to make you so mad?".

"Well, Kiana seems to still have a thing for me".

"I'm not surprised. A crush doesn't fade away that fast".

"Dalia seems to try to get me and Kiana together".

"Ugh, why can't she respect a no?".

"And Chase... I don't know, but he makes me just as mad".

Kenma tried to hold his laughter in. "Poor Chase. Didn't do anything but you're still mad at him".

(Y/n) rolled his eyes. "Maybe it's because he didn't do anything. He obviously sees how Dalia tries to get Kiana and me together, but he just watches".

Kenma thought for a second. "Well, didn't you say you wanted to come out to Chase and Dalia today anyways? Maybe now is a good time".

     "That is exactly what I thought too!", (Y/n) answered, a bit loud. "Ok, I'll text them now to come here then. Wish me luck!".

     "Good luck, Love you". "Love you too!".

     (Y/n) didn't know how, but every time he and his boyfriend called each other, he suddenly felt better again. As if a heavy load was lifted off of his shoulders.

(Y/n) texted Chase, telling him that he and Dalia should come over to the toilets alone, without the rest of the group. That should be to hard for those two, they often disappeared from the group for make out sessions and whatever else they're doing.

     After sending his text, (Y/n) took a deep breath and exited the toilets, waiting for his friends.

     "Now don't fuck it up, (Y/n)".

• • • • •

     Chase showed Dalia the message he just got.

Hey, Chase, meet me in front of the toilets please, I have something pretty important to tell you and Dalia

Oh, and only you two please, come alone

Chase was confused about his best friends behavior. What secret could be so important that he only wanted to tell it to Dalia and him?

      Whatever it was, Chase knew that it was something important to (Y/n), considering the fact he didn't just say it over text or in front of the group.

     "Maybe (Y/n) has finally found a girlfriend and didn't want to say it in front of Kiana", Chase speculated, as he made his way to the toilets, together with Dalia.

• • • • •

     You remember how (Y/n) thought that right now he didn't care about coming out and that he's just gonna do it so Dalia will stop shipping him with Kiana?

     Now that was a lie.

     In reality, the snickers was rushing through his veins, now that (Y/n) knew there was no way of stopping what he was doing.

     As soon as he's out of the closet, there's no way of going back in.

Coming out to Dalia and Chase scared (Y/n) way more than coming out to Aaliyah, and that was already hard enough. He just knew Dalia and Chase for way longer, and he didn't know what the two of them thought of the LGBTQ+ community.

What if they're homophobic? Homophobia would be a real issue in their friendship.

"Maybe I'm not ready to come out to them after all-"

"Hey, (Y/n), we're here!", Chase's yell brought (Y/n) out of his thoughts. (Y/n) was sitting on a bench, the same bench (Y/n) sat on when coming out to Aaliyah.

"Now, what did you want to talk about?", Dalia asked her friend enthusiastically, while sitting down next to him. Chase stood next to her, his hand resting on her shoulder.

(Y/n) was picking his nails anxiously, what Chase noticed immediately.

"Whatever he wants to tell us seems to be really important to him", Chase thought. "Hey man, if you need your time to tell us it's fine, no press-"

"I'm gay".

     The silence that followed didn't help against (Y/n)'s anxiety. It was a rather awkward silence, almost overwhelming. It just scared the boy even more.

Just when he wanted to stand up and leave, he felt a hand on his shoulder holding him where he is.

"Now everything with Kiana makes sense!", Dalia spoke. "You didn't show any interest in her. I mean not only her, but every other girl too! I just thought you were discreet with your crushes. Ugh, why did I never thought about that you might be gay?".

Chase also just smiled at his friend. "I kinda knew you're gay to be honest. At first it was just a hunch, because you refused to look anywhere in the locker room when it's P.E., but at the wall. It's good that I know for sure now".

"They really don't mind...", (Y/n) thought, happily. Maybe coming out wasn't to hard, if you just had the right kind of friends.

Hi guys! Sorry that this update it late. I also changed my upload schedule. I won't be posting every Saturday anymore, but I'll be posting once a week on a random day. Hope you'll understand.

Also, I got a request from one of you guys. Someone asked me to write a story with Dalia, Chase, Aaliyah, Kiana, Elena and (Y/n), but without the crossover. They also asked for a harem for (Y/n) with Elena and Aaliyah. Now I'm asking you guys, what do you think about it. I could definitely write it if enough people would want it!
