[8:21 - Ryland] Forgot to tell you - Paisley had a freak out in the car when we started talking about her... 'liking' you (don't hate me I had to). Apparently someone didn't exactly want her liking girls.

[8:22 - Ryland] But she definitely likes you, ocean eyes ;)

[8:22 - Ryland] You can thank me later.

Shiloh furrowed her eyebrows and set her phone down.

"Hey Paisley, can we talk?" she asked, scooting back on the bed and patting the space next to her. Paisley crawled over and sat cross legged, tilting her head to the side.

"Did your uncle ever hurt you because of someone you liked?" Shiloh bit her lip, hoping she wouldn't scare the smaller girl into silence. Paisley looked down at her hands and took a deep breath before nodding.

"Why?"

Paisley bit her lip. "I do not like boys," she mumbled and looked up at Shiloh. "Boys are not pretty."

Shiloh couldn't help but laugh softly. "Your uncle has an ugly soul, you know that? Because there's nothing wrong with you liking girls," she took a deep breath and thought for a moment. She couldn't imagine someone hurting her for who she liked. If her parents hadn't been supportive when she came out, she had no idea where she would be.

"When I told my dad that I liked girls, he was confused when I started crying," Shiloh started, sharing a part of her life she didn't share with many people.

"He told me there was no reason to cry. He said he saw it as just discovering something new about his daughter… That it was no different than me telling him about a new band I liked, or showing him a new project I did in art class. It was a part of who I was, and nothing to be ashamed of. He told me he didn't think it was a big deal because it didn't define me. I was still his daughter, no matter who I loved."

"He is nice?" Paisley asked, tilting her head to the side. Shiloh giggled and nodded.

"Yeah, he's awesome."

“You…?” the smaller girl looked down at her hands. "You like… girls, too?"

Shiloh nodded once more. "Yup," she laughed softly, realizing that Paisley had no clue that she had been the one to out Shiloh. It was comforting, in a way. She saw the smaller girl yawn. "Tired?"

Paisley looked hesitant, but nodded anyway. Shiloh leaned over and turned out the light, crawling under the covers and patting the bed, signifying for Paisley to do the same. Once the small girl was curled up beside her, Shiloh laid her head down.

"Goodnight, Pais," she whispered.

"Wait," Paisley blurted out. Shiloh, confused, lifted her head and looked at the smaller girl. The only light they had was the dim moonlight streaming through the window. Paisley looked almost angelic.

"What?" Shiloh asked, biting her lip at the lack of space between them.

"I like you, Lolo," Paisley whispered. Before Shiloh could respond, Paisley leaned up and planted a quick kiss on the older girl's lips. Without another word, Paisley laid her head back down on her pillow and closed her eyes.
