Finn looked over and took the water, opening it and taking a drink from it. “What happened,” he asked, looking around for a moment. “You passed out, dude,” Connor said, sitting on the edge of the cot. “Oh, right,” Finn spoke softly, taking another sip. He looked down and remember he wasn’t wearing his sweatshirt, hugging his legs to his chest.
-
“Are- are you feeling any better?” Arthur asked hesitantly, wringing his hands together.
-
“Yeah, a bit,” Finn replied, adjusting the cooling rag on his forehead. He looked over at Aurthur, watching him for a moment. “I’m sorry,” he whispered softly, exhaling shakily.
-
“Why are you sorry?” Arthur asked quietly, holding his hand out for Finn.
-
“I- I made you worry- I made all of you worry, about me,” Finn replied in a quiet voice, holding out his hand and resting it in Aurthur’s. “All because I wanted to keep my stupid hoodie on…” He lowered his other arm, forgetting about hiding his chest.
-
“Hey, but you had a pretty good reason for it,” Arthur said softly. “What reason?” MJ asked, standing at the end of the cots.
-
Finn exhaled shakily, gently squeezing Aurthur’s hand. “I- I have something I need to tell you guys,” he spoke softly, his voice wavering, “and if- if you hate me when I tell you, I- I don’t care-“ No, of course I care, but I can’t say that- I’ll sound like a child-
-
“They’re not gonna hate you-“ Arthur said. “Yeah, I bet a hundred bucks we probably won’t hate you,” MJ said with a quiet chuckle, Elliot nudging his side to get him to shut up.
-
Finn exhaled softly, a small smile on his face. He took a deep breath, staring at his lap. “I’m trans,” he said, looking back up at MJ and Elliot. “That’s- that’s why I always wear my hoodie, that’s why I- I never swim, why- why I always change by myself-“
-
“Okay,” Elliot said with a nod. “Not to like- belittle your feelings, but I kinda already guessed that. Like- half my cousins are trans and I could see the signs,” He said with a small shrug. “Well- I couldn’t,” MJ said. “But that’s cool man. Pretty special,” he said, holding his hand out to dap Finn up with a smile.
-
Finn stared at them for a moment before chuckling softly, letting go of Aurthur’s hand for a moment to dap up his friend. “Thanks,” he said with a small smile, pulling his hand back and grabbing onto his boyfriend’s again.
-
“Of course, dude,” MJ said with a smile, crossing his arms. “See! I told you they wouldn’t think of you differently-“ Arthur said with a quiet chuckle.
-
Finn blushed, a little embarrassed for freaking out over it. “Guess you were right,” he said with a chuckle, nodding. “Keep drinking that water, Finn,” Connor said, standing. “I’ll be right back.” He walked off, going to talk to the nurse. Finn nodded and took another sip of his water, leaning back against the wall.
-
“Oh, so that’s why you were wearing the sweatshirt?” MJ asked, sitting down next to Elliot. “But- I’ve seen you wear a tank top before-“
-
“Well, I- I had my binder on underneath,” Finn said, running his free hand through his hair, “I usually wear my binder, but it’s just gotten really hot these past couple of days and it’s kinda hard to breathe with it on- Especially in this heat.” He exhaled softly, rubbing the back of Aurthur’s hand with his thumb.
