Why do I have to still be in Middle School? You'd think as soon as I hit College I'd be able to split off from Katie and make my own friends. Hang out with people who actually have personalities, not just glossy magazine faces.
Then again, after last night, I'm not sure if she'll ever let me out of her sight again. I think, she bought my story, a fact that seems to hurt me more than please. I had to tell her that though. She would never leave me in peace if she though I had initiated or participated freely in the kiss.
She would never let me be if she knew I wished I could somehow find Naomi and kiss her again.

It was only Middle School, right? I mean, everyone experiments and stuff, that's what school's for. And she was drunk and lit and god knows what else. And that cow jumped her - there was no way she was gay. She couldn't be. She wasn't.
I'm her twin. If she was I'd know. That's what twins are like, right? We always know stuff about each other. I mean, we've never kept any secrets from each other. Only ever kept them from everyone else.
It didn't stop me from feeling sick when I saw her snogging that girl. It really scared me.

I was only in Middle School. Lots of girls experiment in Middle School. It's part of growing up. It worried me that I'd been repeating similar words to myself over and over since I'd woken up this morning.
I couldn't stop thinking about her. And that scared me. But I'd forget soon, wouldn't I? I was still technically a kid, teenager, whatever. You do stupid things when you're young.
But somehow I couldn't make myself believe it actually was a stupid thing.
