Coming-out Novels & Stories

He seemed confident. "What's with the big smile today?" I asked. "I came out to mom and dad, and I did not expect that they would accept the new Theo," I screamed quietly. I was so excited that he can finally be free from the cage. "So, are you planning to come out to your friends?" His bright face suddenly shifted into a sad one. "I don't know yet. I don't want to lose them, so maybe I still have to hide that I am gay. Please Reign, do not tell anyone here in Crestview, especially Mark." I just nodded. Mark and the rest of his squad just arrived.

“You think you’ve won?” I brush my hands through my hair. “I haven’t lost yet,” I tell myself. “I can still have this under my control… I’d never lose to those things.” Coming out is bold of her and he might be having some light of hope because of this but… I strut towards the door and walk out, hands in my pockets. “Think again,” I muttered under my breath.

They were both comforting and warning at the same time. When I opened them, April was watching me with that patient. “People think coming out is just saying three words,” she said. “It’s not. It’s years of unlearning shame, of battling every voice that told you you’re wrong. Kael’s still in that fight even if he hasn’t admitted it.” I nodded slowly. “And I can’t fight it for him.” “Nope,” April said, popping the ‘p’. “But you can love yourself enough to know where you stand.”

I imagine all nine Walsh bodyguards pressing their microphone buttons, allowing the rest of the security team to listen. Ashton's face lights up throughout the emo-punk song. ‘Colby’, he mutters, shaking his head. Then, he steals a moment to glance at me. "He was only ten when I finally mustered the courage to come out to everyone, admitting that I liked both girls and guys. I didn't think it would matter to him. But during that Christmas, with half-unwrapped presents and 'Jingle Bell Rock' playing in the background, I stood in front of my family. When they started hugging me and smiling, I looked at Colby, and he was in tears."

‘’It seems that everyone is not accepting us for what we are, but that is their problem because,’’ I pulled him closer to myself and then leaned in to kiss him on the lips. This was my best way of coming out to everyone, and I don’t regret it.

I grab a chair and sink down, eyes locked on my brother-in-law as he begins to pace. “My family knows I’m gay,” he starts. “I came out to Bianca and Dante when I was fourteen, my mom at fifteen, and the Don when I was seventeen. And surprisingly, they were all supportive. I think part of it is because I’m the second son—third in line to the family. Fourth, once your baby’s born.”

"How old where you when you came out to your family and friends?" Blushing at the fact he says 'friends' since up and until recently I had only one friend, Drake. "Um, I came out to Jacob first when I was 12 years old and I came out to the rest of my family when I was 13 years old at Jacob's encouragement." Smiling at how nervous I was about coming out to my family when I did. "I came out to Drake about a week after I meet him three years ago." "How old where and were the reactions what you were expecting?" I ask turning my body toward him more.

“I’m being blackmailed with that video.” Ryder’s expression hardened instantly. “What?” His voice remained controlled, but his body moved closer. “Who are these people? And what exactly did they do?” Arden took a deep breath. The urge to speak was overwhelming now, like a dam that had finally broken. “I was fifteen,” Arden began. “It was my birthday when I came out to my parents. I thought they would be angry or disappointed, but they weren’t. They loved me. They supported me. Even when they knew I was into men.”

"You're lying! I won't believe this!" The onlookers eyed us three curiously. Morgan hated when people watched him—in the past, he would've stormed off long ago. Only then did I realize he was genuinely trying to win my heart again. Despite knowing people were mocking him in their hearts, he remained rooted to the spot. He didn't want to leave. Still, what was the point of acting like this? It was too late. Damien appeared before things could get messier. "Excuse me, please. I've got a viral cold!"

"It's so unfair. I have already received mine but you haven't yet. How's that possible?" "Duhh. They just couldn't find the right one for me." He flips his imaginary hair. Josh already turned 21 months ago but he still hasn't received any. He stopped going to school when he was in kinder so he's older than me. He doesn't want to tell me what really happened. He's a secretive person. All he said was that he has family problems at that time and that's it. But you know what? I'm really curious about Josh. He's gay. Will he ever receive one from the government? What if he won't because he's gay? What would he do? What would the government do? But what if...Josh isn't really gay?
