Ch 13 Shock

Half an hour later, Misty pulled off to the shoulder of the road. 

“So?” Thea said.

“Im not sure how to explain this. You’re so perfect. You’re kind, strong, and beautiful. I’ve always thought so. Everyone likes you. At the Talent Show, I couldn’t keep my eyes off you. My heart was racing. I’m sure everyone could smell me. I hoped that maybe you were like me, and that’s why the triplets were your best friends, and you never dated anyone, but now you’re with the triplets. Xavier said what he said, and I jumped on the bandwagon. I think it was instinct to try to hide my feelings.”

“What do you mean?” Thea said. 

“Im in love with you.” Misty wrung her hands in her lap, letting her platinum blonde hair hide her face.

Thea’s eyebrows lifted in shock. She shook her head. “What?”

“Are you disgusted?”

“No. I’m shocked. The way you treated me, the things you said—it’s difficult to reconcile with having feelings for me. I feel like I have whiplash.”

“I’m so sorry I was the cause of you getting attacked today,” Misty said, her blue eyes lifting to meet Thea’s. 

“The boys are responsible for that. It shouldn’t matter what rumors go around about someone. Sexual assault is sexual assault.” Misty nodded. “ Does anyone know you’ re gay?”

“ No.”

“You’re afraid for people to find out?”

“YES”

“That’s why you said what you said.”

“I thought if I bad-mouthed you, no one would see that I wanted you.” °:

“I m sorry you felt like you needed to hide.”

“It’s no excuse for my behavior.”

“I get it, though,” Thea said. “I was confused why you were saying those things. I thought we were friendly, even if we didn’t hang out. I’m glad you told me. Can I ask how long you’ve felt this way?”

“I think ever since I first saw you. You stand out from the crowd. You glow.”
