Chapter 2: Uniform
"I heard Mikael was caught trying to wear a girl's school uniform."
"He's so weird."
"He's probably trying to pass as a girl so he can peep on them in the locker room."
"Ew he's such a pervert."
"Yeah he's a creep."
Mikael quietly walked down the hall. He did wear a girl's uniform and loved it. He loved it so much he wore it during school. He needed this. He wanted to feel normal.
"I can't fucking believe you actually stole Amelia's school uniform."
Mikael looked to his right side to see his closest friend, Fritz. He didn't reply. He just sighed. 'He saw right through me... That sucks." Mikael thought.
"She's gonna be pissed at you. More than half the school already either ignore or harass you. Not to mention myself getting the same treatment but I'll endure it because no one would."
"I know. Stop telling me things I already know."
Fritz looked away from him. "Have you decided on a name? I'll just call you Mika if you don't."
"I figured Mikaela could work. It's not too different from my given name."
"Should I consider a pronoun change?"
"Yes. Let's start now." Mikaela said now looking over at Fritz. "You promise to use them?"
"Hell yeah I do! You're a girl and that's who you are!"
"Don't be so loud."
A group of bitchy popular girls looked over at them. The lead bitch pushed the other girls out of her way.
"You're a sissy boy and that's all you're gonna be!" She yelled at the two of them.
Mikaela shuddered. She couldn't believe what she was hearing out of this girl.
"Then if I'm a sissy than what does that make other girls?" Mikaela replied.
"Girls! You. Are. Not. A. Girl."
Mikaela's mind shut down. The world seemed to have stopped for her. She lost her breath.
"Shut the fuck up." Fritz growled in attempt to protect Mikaela. "She is very much a girl as I am as boy."
"Then you both are sissies."
One of the girls in the group spoke up. "Amelia is in the bathroom crying because of you. You're the sicko that stole her uniform. You're such a fucking pervert. And having the screwed up mind to wear it like it was nothing more than a boy's uniform. I can't believe how twisted you are."
"I'll pay for a new uniform just please don't tell the teachers." Mikaela said quickly.
"Like hell we're not gonna tell them!" The lead bitch took back her position.
"Mikael.. why don't we just leave." Fritz suggested
"Mikaela! It's Mikaela!" She said her voice shaking and trying to hold back her anger and grief.
She ran off towards her dorm. She was sick of all this bullshit. Mikaela was trying her hardest not to cry and scream.
"Mika! Come back! I'm so fucking sorry!" Fritz ran after her but she only kept running.
'All I ever do is run. Like when I ran away from the truth before transferring to this hell hole.' Mikaela thought as she ran faster.
"Mikaela!" Fritz was persistent. He refused to let her run away from him.
That only made Mikaela cry harder that Fritz cared so much that he was chasing her. But she just wanted to be alone. She tripped and fell. She got back up again and continued sprinting even though she was in pain. Fritz eventually caught up to her. She had stopped to catch her breath after running all the way to the other side of the school in hopes of losing him but it was no use. Fritz cared so much that he chased her the whole way.
Fritz embraced Mikaela from behind. He was panting and coughing from all the running. "Please..don't push me away... I'm so sorry.. It just slipped. It's hard to break old habits. You're so beautiful as a girl and I like to see you happy. I know my opinion doesn't change anything but I just wanted you to know that I care.."
Mikaela was quiet. She was thinking about what Fritz was saying. "You promised..."
"It's hard to make promises that you can't keep."
Mikaela turned around causing Fritz to let go of her. "Well I guess I know you are a keeper for sure." She smiled a little despite the fact that she was physically crying.
"So do you forgive me?"
"Yeah, but... I'm scared. I was sent away because I was like this and I don't know what will happen if I get expelled." Mikaela couldn't look Fritz in the eye.
"Then we'll leave together. No away in hell am I going to stop protecting you."
"Thank you... I wouldn't have met you if I didn't want to... become a girl."
"And I think I would picked on you if I wasn't gay.." He blushed deeply and looked away. "Anyways, should we wait to talk to Amelia or do it now?"
"Hold up, you're gay and you never bothered telling me." Mikaela chuckled a little. "That's so unfair."
"Hey! I just never found the right time to do it." Fritz scratched the back of his head. "When we first met I thought you would judge me."
"Hell no! I would have protected you like you do to me!" Mikaela started to feel better knowing that she wasn't the only one that was of the LGBTQ+ type.
"I'm happy to hear that." Fritz smirked. "We should go. Let's skip class and try to figure out what we should do about you. I want you to be happy and comfortable with yourself."
The two started walking towards the dorm rooms. They weren't too far from them.
"Okay. Maybe we could look online about this?" Mikaela asked not realizing how close she was to Fritz.
"Whatever you say, Mikaela!" Fritz said happily gently wrapping his arm around her waist.
She blushed very deeply from this act of what could be kindness or possibly platonic love. She didn't feel uncomfortable or felt anything negative about the contact. She rather liked it very secretly.
'So this is what it feels like having a boyfriend. I don't think we're dating? He did just say that he was gay. But he called me beautiful. Was that his way of trying to make be feel better about myself? Hell I don't know, yet I feel so at ease with him. I wish he would just kiss me and seal the deal with me. That is if it was true that he has feelings towards me. Ahh! I'm so confused! I don't even know what I want anymore!'
To Be Continued
A/N: LGBT type wasn't supposed to be negative. I wasn't sure how I should have worded it because sexuality and gender are two different things of two different spectrums. Also I'm bisexual and transgender (female to male).
Small spoiler but Fritz actually doesn't know his sexuality. He just said that he was gay because he knew that he wasn't straight.
