TRIGGER WARNING: This chapter may contain derogatory, homophobic, slurs...

"Hey fag!" someone called out...
"Gay-ass freak..." one more...
"Weirdo!" all targeted towards the area Darius was, but they definitely were not talking about him.

"How... how do they know...?" he turned beside him to see Marz looking embarrassed, sad, and all the negative emotions at the same time. What did he mean?

"Milly... did you FUCKING tell them?! What the fuck did you do?!"
"Marz... what are you talking about?!" Darius was so confused. What was going on?!

"Look around you, Darius," the brown-haired boy said, his voice shaky, "look around you, you fucking idiot. I'm gay, you fucking bigot,"
"Marz...?"
"Shut the fuck up, leave me alone..."

"Hey!" the annoying voice coming from near the lockers, "you like it?" the smirk on his face was slap worthy. Matthew Borris. A fucking bully.

"The fuck you mean, Matthew?!" Darius never knew his best friend could sound so cold...
"Usually, when somebody helps you, you say Thank You," his smirk... ugh...
"Did you do this...?"
"Sherlock Holmes Jr. right here,"

Before the conversation could continue, a fist came flying straight at Matthew, blood spilling everywhere from his face. And the bloodstained hand, was Marz.

The only reason this is marked as "Mature" was the "extreme use of profanity", and even though I talk with that level on a day-to-day basis, that amount of swearing is a little overboard on Tapas. So I had to mark it mature.

It was also marked mature because of the use of a derogatory slur, which is used negatively against people part of the LGBTQ+ community and that might trigger or offend people.

Other than that, this episode covers the fact that a bully leaked out personal information about Marz, without consent, and the end result led to Marz being ridiculed and hurt by the people who saw his secret.

As many of you may understand, coming out is hard. No matter if your gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, asexual, or anything else. It. Is. Hard. And that is a significant fact. So many people are still in the closet about who they truly are, because they are worried about what other people will think about them, what their loved ones will think about them, what anyone will think about them. So many people have lost their lives to (TW) suicide, because people didn't accept them, and hurt them for something they can't control.

The LGBTQ+ community, and the positives and negatives, are 100% WAY MORE than this, but this isn't even the basics. I just wanted to put this out there, to explain how Marz's situation may connect with some of yours.

If anyone wants to add something in the comments, feel free to do so.

This comment section is a safe space for people to talk about their emotions and feelings, with no judgment. We will not judge or hurt others for their thoughts inside their head. We will just listen and help.

Remember: Sexuality is not a choice, but something that you figure out, slowly. Taking your time. What is in your pants, does not define your gender. Gender is a social construct, made by people to simplify definition. Sexuality is a pit of sand that you dig and dig until you find that treasure chest.

My words are up.

Since I couldn't finish what I had to say in the description, comment, it is...

Like I was saying, my analogy, with a pit of sand, works for everything. And remember, one you find who you are at the moment, does NOT mean it won't change. You could keep digging that sand pit, and find a new chest, that may have more value than the last. And you can keep digging and digging, finding new things along the way.

You don't have to stick with a label forever, you don't have to label yourself at all.

I just wanted to say, that whoever is part of the LGBTQ+ community, or even not, the world is a scary place, and I know it's hard to fit in. You feel like everyone hates you, for being you. But, I'mma put it bluntly, nobody notices you as much as you think. And the fact that there are so many people out there that love you!

Like, can you believe, people will disown their own child just because their, gay, trans, and what-not?! Can you believe that bullying gets so bad that people lose their lives? Can you believe that even in this day and age, so many people still don't feel comfortable being themselves, because of the "political rightness's" negative effect on positivity?!

And once again, this comment section is a safe place for all the LGBTQ+ numbers, and the people who aren't part of it at all, to talk about your thoughts and feelings without being judged. We don't judge, we just listen and help.

Thank you for reading this lengthy thing, but it is an important message.

If you wanna add anything I missed, please do so.

Thanks, hope you guys love yourself, and peace out!

When Darius comes back from summer break, everyone is shocked. He got a complete glow-up, and now all the girls are swarming him! That's not a problem, he loves the GOOD attention. But, the thing is, his best friend/rival is gay.
(DW, the mystery is there)
