"I'll assign you to a friend of mine, he's a therapist, i think you could use the help" Doctor Manning said closing Evie's file.

Evie released a breath.

"Thanks Doc, I'm glad you're able to help me" she said smiling, the doctor nodded his head in response.

She closes the door of the room and walked to the reception area, heading outside with a smile on her face.

◆━━━━━━◆❃◆━━━━━━◆

"We're looking for a youngman, he's shorter than me, brown hair and has bright blue eyes" Fred told the nurse at the front, She looked at him weirdly.

"Sir, do you know how many people look like that? Can i atleast have a name?" She said turning to her computer.

"Oh, yeah, sorry, Evan" Gabby said, the nurse checked for any Evans on her computer.

"He left 10 minutes ago, he had an appointment with our cosmetic surgeon" she said facing them.

They all froze, was Evan having plastic surgery? But why?

"Uh, Thanks" Timon said after an awkward silence.

They got in Fred's car and they sat in silence.

"I think he's going to transition" Gabby said, it makes sense to him now, Evan told him he was lost so he went with what his gut told him, being his true self, he cracked a smile.

"Lets visit him in the evening, lets head back to school"

◆━━━━━━◆❃◆━━━━━━◆

"You gave your friends a scare" Alfred said placing food on the table, Evie snorted at his words.

"They hate me, I'm surprised they even care at this point, i put them through so much because i was selfish"

"Honey, they care about you, especially Fred, now tell me, what did Dr. Manning say?"

"I'll be taking hormon pills and injections from now on, my surgery is in 6 months" She said twirling the spaghetti around his fork.

"Alright, I'll fund you, save the money for an apartment or something, its time to leave the nest" Alfred said, he's been thinking alot lately, he thinks that Evie needs her own space to think things through.

"Dad, I'm so sorry" she said, she now realizes her mistakes.

"Don't worry about it, you need to apologize to Fred and his family though, i heard Will confronted your mother" he snickered.

"Oh boy" Evie said, ending with a sigh.

"Everything will work out, trust me"

◆━━━━━━◆❃◆━━━━━━◆

"Wait, so he's transgender?" Will asked, he thought Melissa was exaggerating about it but now that he heard Evan will have surgery makes a lot of sense for him.

"Yeah, i want to call her but i don't know if she'll answer" Fred said cutting his steak.

"Son, it's obvious you love the boy....I mean girl.  call her , if she doesn't answer then its her loss" Ben said pointing a fork at Fred.

"Alright, wish me luck" Fred said wiping his mouth with the serviette and left the table.

"Do you think it's a good idea? I mean he's on the verge of depression now" Will said in worry.

"Trust me, everything will work out"

◆━━━━━━◆❃◆━━━━━━◆

"I'm glad you called, i missed you"

"I missed you too babe, we should go out on a date again"

"Are you sure? I thought you were the smash and pass  kinda guy"

"Gabby, i was before but not anymore, i care about you because I like you...and stuff"

"And stuff?"

"Shut up, goodnight"

"Night night"

Gabby smiled after hanging up the phone. he's glad Timon admitted that he likes him after all so that means he'll loosen up and enjoy the times they hang out.

He switched off the lights and got in bed, he cant stop thinking about Evan,

"I hope you're happy Evan"

◆━━━━━━◆❃◆━━━━━━◆

Fred paced back and forth in his room, his phone in his hands, he sighed for the tenth time and dialled the number, he placed it on his ear.

"F-fred?"

His breath hitched in his throat, it's been long since he heard that voice, the vulnerability in that voice said it all for him, Evie was sad.

"I'm coming over"

◆━━━━━━◆❃◆━━━━━━◆

Evie placed the phone on the table and starred at it, she suddenly felt nervous, was Fred going to be mad at her? Will he tell her to leave him alone?

She  went to the room and changed clothes, she had found the box in the garage and she was happy to know that Alfred wasn't serious about donating the clothes. She puts on an oversized pink sweater and white leggings.

Minutes later she heard a knock downstairs. Her heart raced when she heard her dad and Fred talking.

She sits up on the bed and debated if she should go downstairs or not. She panicked when she heard footsteps coming towards the door, then followed by a knock.

"Evie? Open up" Fred said on the otherside of the door.

Evie stood up, starring at the closed door. She fiddles with her fingers and hesitantly opened the door, letting Fred inside.
