The NY Tell-All

{Just a warning before going into the chapter there is mentions of a coming out not going well.

I've noticed a lot more new readers recently so I just wanna say heyyyy besties welcome to the party.

I have had some sort of writing resurgence lately. I don't know what is happening but I am taking advantage while it is here. Hopefully, it has been shown in the latest chapters.

I was reading Wattpad content guidelines or whatever from like two months ago for this upcoming chapter that I'm currently writing and idk if I can give the people what they want. I'm gonna try my hardest tho.

I saw Chappell Roan live in person as Lady Liberty herself this weekend, truly an iconic moment that I will treasure forever. This chapter having NY in the title is very appropriate.

I've been slightly busy the past few days so I haven't been editing chapters for correctness and grammar before they upload so I will go back in and do that today.

Enjoy the chapter xx}

3 am;

I was under the assumption Jessie was going to sleep in my bed tonight after I ruined her sheets this afternoon but she decided to wash them instead. Such a buzzkill. I was prepared for a very happy and excited Jessie to come into my room tonight after our date today. Instead, I got the total opposite.

"Harper," She says with her voice cracking.

"What's wrong?" I ask and stand up.

"Can I tell you what my mom said now?" She asks.

"Of course" She is finally ready.

"I told my mom on my very last day. If it went bad at least I would only have to live in awkwardness for a day and not the whole trip. We were having a decent time together until this. I told her. I told her short and simple. All I said was Mom I'm a lesbian. I like girls. And well she told me to never talk to her again after I leave. I figured she was just talking in the heat of the moment. I've been texting her daily, sometimes two or three times a day and she won't answer me. I just tried to text her and it wouldn't deliver and I think I'm blocked" She says in between sobs.

I wrap her in a hug. I hold onto her as tightly as I can. She clings on to me for dear life. She just sobs into my shoulder. I repeat phrases like "It's ok" or "You're gonna be ok" trying to comfort her.

After a few seconds, I finally say "It's ok Jessie. You don't need her in your life. You don't need someone in your life who isn't going to love you for who you are" I say.

"I know but at the same time it's my mom," She says.

"She will come around eventually but until then you can have my mom," I say.

She lifts her head from my shoulder and smiles a little "Thanks" She says. "But seriously what do I do"

"Jessie, I don't know if I'm going to be able to help you. I will be your shoulder to cry on and hold your hand through it all but trust me you don't want my advice. My advice would be to show up at her house and hug her and say something slightly unhinged"

She laughs a bit. I can also help her smile through it. "Slightly unhinged is being generous, homewrecker daddy"

I didn't think she heard that. "I know you're not going to like this answer but I think you need to tell your dad"

"I can't. I'm not ready" She says.

"What if you tell my dad?" I ask.

"Why your dad?"

"I already told him about me and us. He would know what to do and what to say"

She just shrugs her shoulders. "I kinda want to go to sleep"

"Ok" I say. I give her another tight hug. She hugs me back. "I promise you're going to be ok. Are you sure you don't want to sleep in here?"

"I'm ok but, if I change my mind I'll come back" She turns around and starts heading to the door. "Wait I forgot something" I hope it's my goodnight kiss. "I love you"

"I love you more" I say and she leaves the room.

My week without her all of a sudden doesn't sound that bad.
