George POV-

It was Monday. As usual, I woke up, made breakfast, and dashed out the door. I got to school, and went to all my classes. During the last class before break, I slipped Clay a note. It said 'meet by the bleachers during lunch :)'. I always add a smiley face to the notes I give to Clay. I look at him, and he nods. We agreed on Saturday that he would hang out with me and my friends at break. I also said he can bring his non-homophobic friends. The bell rings, and Clay and I walk out of the classroom to the bleachers. Clay texts Nick, Karl, and Alex to come to the bleachers. My friends are already there. Clay greets them all.

"Everyone, this is Clay. Clay, this is Floris, Charlie, and Toby. A couple of Clay's friends are coming too, but don't worry, not the mean ones." I say, just so they know. Then Clay talks.

"I don't want to be friends with the others anymore. They're homophobic as hell. I'm bi, so yeah. Not the best." I didn't know Clay was going to be so open! Now my friends speak.

"Welcome to the queers! I'm gay, and so is Toby. Floris is straight, but a massive ally." Says Charlie. Oh, nice! Seems my friends already like him. We see Nick, Karl, and Alex walk up. We are hanging out behind the bleachers, so no one can see us. Nick and Karl see that, and give each other a quick kiss on the lips. Wait, What.

"Hi y'all. I'm Alex, and these two lovebirds are Nick and Karl." Says Alex.

"Hi! This is Charlie, George, and Floris, I'm Toby." Toby says, greeting the new guys.

"Alex, are you straight? Just asking to see if I'm the only straight one here." Floris said sarcasticly. Alex shook his head.

"I'm pansexual, actually. Thanks for asking." Responds Alex. Clay pipes up next.

Clay POV-

"Hey boys? I don't really want to be friends with the others anymore. I like these people much better. What do you guys think?" I ask. They all agree with me. George and his friends ask us to be in their group instead. Of course we agree.

"Oh! Do you guys want to come to my house for a party on Saturday? It would be so fun!" Says Nick. Everyone can go, so George makes a texting group with all of us in it. Nick sends his address in the group. The bell rings, and we all go to our classes. George and I walk together as always, since we're in the same class, and chat about our friend groups merging into one. George's friends are really nice. Class goes as usual, and the last bell rings for us to get out. I hear George moan from disappointment after looking at his phone. I ask what's wrong.

"My mum had a work thing and can't come pick me up! It's too long to walk." He sighs.

"I could drive you to my house if you want?"

"Could you? That would be great." He replies. I walk him to my car, and he goes into the front seat. We drive to my house. When we get there, I lead George into my house.

"Your house is huge! I can't believe you get to live here!" He says. He's so cute, looking all around. I show him up the stairs (woah! You have STAIRS!?!?) and to my room. George's phone buzzes, and he checks it.

"My mom needs to come pick me up. What's the address?" He asks me. I give it to him, and his mum picks him up 10 minutes later.

No POV-

The week goes by, and the two groups fully merge into one. Nick and Karl continue to make out behind the bleachers while the others talk, occasionally agreeing or disagreeing with something. Everyone looks forward to Saturday afternoon, when they get to go to Nick's house for the party, which turned into a sleepover plan.

Wednesday, during break, Clay POV-

I see someone from my old group start walking over to the bleachers.

"Nick, Karl, stop making out for a second. Liam is here." The two stop, looking worried. Liam comes up to us, and looks around.

"Clay! Nick! Karl! Alex! Why haven't you been hanging out with us?" He's angry.

"You guys are homophobic as hell!" Says Karl.

"And? Gay people are gross! What's the real reason!?" Thomas yells back.

"We just said! We aren't homophobic! In fact, we're the opposite!" Liam Looks confused.

"The... Opposite? What do you mean?" He asks.

"This!" Nick yells, then grabs Karl's face. He pulls his face closer, and kisses Karl. Karl leans in and pushes Nick against the bleachers. They're proper making out now, and Liam looks traumatized. He looks at Alex and I. I look at Alex, and we exchange nods.

"We like guys too, by the way. Now leave." Says Alex. Liam runs away, but not before yelling.

"YOU ALL WILL BURN IN HELL!!!! ALL OF YOU!!!"

"I'M STRAIGHT!" Yelled Floris.

"BUT YOU SUPPORT IT!" Liam shouted back.

"He's got a point there, I guess." Said Floris. We laugh at the joke Floris made, but we all hurt a little bit inside.
