I just just moved into the neighborhood. From California to Florida. I am now living in a small town, but I like the change. My name is Michael, and I’m only 19 years old. I’m gay but nobody really knows. My mom and dad would have a fit if they found out because they’re highly religious, and I know my dad for a fact does not support gay marriage. I’m spoiled in a way. My parents rarely pay attention to me and I’m given money instead of love. I say that so bluntly because I know it’s true, and I’ve learned to accept it. I spend a lot of time online, on different websites, talking to guys. Nobody I know. I’ve always wanted to meet up with one but I’m always too afraid.
Until last week, I met a guy named Craig. He’s seriously so nice! He always tells me he wants to take me out to super nice, fancy places, and walk on the beach. I don’t know my way around Florida yet since I’ve only been here a few weeks. So he said he’d love to show me around.
The thing that I’m kind of weird about is that he’s 25, but I guess I don’t mind. He’s tall, he told me he was 6’5, me being only 5’9 it makes me him even more hot, I love tall guys. He’s got dark brown hair and deep blue eyes. He tells me he’s attracted to me because of my blond hair and brown eyes. He says it’s different. I don’t know if i take that as a compliment or not. Me being shy, he brings a different side of me out.
I talked to him last night and he said he wants to meet up at the pizza place tomorrow around the corner from his house. I agreed. I can barely sleep because I keep imagining what I’m going to do as soon as I meet him.
It’s now 7am. I’m meeting Craig at noon. I’ve still got to shower, and do a few things around the house before I drive out to meet him. My dad is snoring away on the couch still, he’s such a lazy bum on Sundays. He works very hard though. That’s how we’re so wealthy. I stepped into the shower, my mind still racing. The warm water feels good and begins to sooth my stress a bit. I get out of the shower and realize it’s almost 8:30, I’m seriously amazed I took that long of a shower.
I texted Craig 20 minutes til and told him I was on my way. He texted me back telling me he was already there waiting for me so quickly put my shoes on and flew out the door. I was so anxious. Meeting the first person/friend/potential boyfriend in Florida.
