Zoe stared at him open mouthed, then stormed in. “What are you doing you freak?” she hissed.
“What does it look like?” snapped Jon “I’m being who I want to be. And way to insult yourself by the way.”
“Insult myself?”
“If I’m a freak for being a goth girl, that makes you one too.”
“But you’re not-“ started Zoe, then paused “Wait, Jon are you saying what I think you’re saying? How long have you felt like this?”
Jon shrugged and sat on her bed, drawing his knees up and hugging them to his chest. “I dunno.”
Zoe’s expression softened and she sat next to him, placing and arm around him. “Have you told mom and dad yet?”
Jon shook his head “Don’t even know how they’d react.”
Zoe nodded and patted his knee. “We can keep this between us for now if you want.”
“Really?”
“What are little sister’s for?” she smiled “And when they’re not around maybe I could show you how to be a goth chick, could be nice to have a big sister.”
Jon smiled and hugged her. “Do you think you could start by teaching me how to do my makeup?”
