Well, you want him back, huh? All right, here.

seriously, grow up. Why are you always defending him? Anyways, what is he, your boyfriend or something? What? No, we're just friends. There's something off about you. I don't know what it is quite yet, but once I do, I'm gonna expose you to the whole school. Can't stand that guy. Just a friend, really? What do you want me to say, that you're my boyfriend? Look, if people knew I was gay, no one would vote for me. That's not true. You should never be scared to be yourself, no matter what. Can we talk about this later? Let's just go. Are you nervous about the election tomorrow? A little. I don't know, I just have this feeling in the pit of my stomach, like something's gonna go wrong. Stop.

At the election today, I want you to tell everyone that you're dropping out of the race. I can't do that. Fine, then I have to tell the whole school about your gay little secret. [Applause] Hey, are you okay? No, I told you it was a bad idea to hold hands in the restaurant. Slow down. What happened, Frank? He saw us, and he got a picture, and he made flyers, and he's gonna hang out at school, and I

I have to drop out of the race. What are you talking about? You can't do that. What other option do I have? Let him expose me then. No one is going to vote for me anyway, so I'll still lose.

I had no idea you stopped. Are you sure you aren't dropping out? This is your last chance before I expose you. You know what, Frank? You don't need to expose me. I'll do it myself. Everyone, I have an announcement to make. It's one that I've actually wanted to for a while. I was just scared. The truth is, I'm [Music] I'm gay. And Julian's not just my friend. He's my boyfriend.
