"Go ahead." Ryder grins and grabs the ladder.

"If you say so." I shrug and climb up.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLwtU8Qbn8
"You better hold it for me!" Ryder yells as he climbs up.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBZYXo6xDf
"What and let you fall?" I laugh.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY25JTEdAX8
We lay out a blanket and lay down on top of it.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQ4IJcVTca
"Wow. These stars are way more visible than in 2025." Ryder whispers. "When we were younger me and Iz would go out and watch the stars."
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00eKvrvovf
"You miss her?" I ask.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9hF03QiJ5
"So much. She's one of my only real friends." Ryder looks like he's about to cry.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovub8CcyNi
"Here's a fun question!" I try to shift the mood. "Do you know any constellations?"
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEmVKUupJE
"I do!" Ryder grins. "You see that square right there?"
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEB5FgtCDx
"Yes." It's part of the Big Dipper.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiVZuLwBd5
"Well thats Pegasus." Ryder smiles.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05lS5Io7d7
I don't want to crush his dreams. "Really?"
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WSrMYtpvl
"Yeah! And that's the Big Dipper. Or is it over there?" Ryder points at 2 different constellations which for your information neither are the Big Dipper.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaV48uWT9ht
"You're an idiot." I laugh and I think Ryders face turns a little red.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1Xduw1VAV
"I am not."
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXtJbwWDs7
"You definitely are." I Point up. "That's the Big Dipper. You pointed at the Little Dipper."
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPucpp7Z4NH
"I was close." Ryder smirks.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3D8earijS
"Were not!" I laugh.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWoHQTY6Jd
"They all look like squares to me!" He throws his arms up.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJFZt6adw8
"That's a good point I guess."
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNZeFzyISY
We'd been laying there for a while when Ryder grabs my hand. I'd be lying if I didn't feel his pulse quicken.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5vhQdnc9e
"I'm going to say a lot of things and I would like it if you said nothing until I'm finished please." Ryder starts.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDCs9sqtPi
"Alright I won't. And you know that you can tell me anything right?" I smile.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9eIVpV1awH
"Yes." Ryder smiles back. "Well, I'm gay. I like men. And I don't know how to get this out right, but I think I'm in love with you." Ry sighs. "I've been in love with you almost since we've met. You're one of the most beautiful men I've ever laid eyes on. More beautiful than any of my 2 boyfriends. Jackie every time I see you I want to kiss you. It pains me. I don't know if you feel the same way and you probably don't but I told my friends the time and place that we're stuck in to bring me back. I can't stand feeling like this much longer. If you don't like men, I get it. If you never want to see me again I get it too."
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eJir6yZCr
"Ry I-" I start but get cut off by Ryders lips. On mine. They're so soft. So perfect. He's perfect. This is exactly how I imagined my first kiss. Not necessarily with a boy but now I can't imagine it any differently.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNaI9jgptU6
Ry pulls away and I think he's going to cry. "Jackie. I'm sorry I just needed to do that before I go." He stands up and starts to head to the ladder.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpReWF5vXc
I grab his hand. "Ry!" I pull him to the blanket. "I need to tell you something too." I sigh. "I like men too. I think. People say that you can only be with a women but I don't feel that way. I think like men and women." I feel the tears come. "Is it different in your time? Is it acceptable to be with a man? I heard stories of boys being killed because they kissed other boys. Does that happen in your time?" I continue. "I think I'm in love with you too but I'm scared to do anything. Can I go back with you? I'm scared of anyone finding out I love a boy. I- I really don't want to die."
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkawRpBRREq
I guess I started sobbing because Ryder wraps me in a giant hug. "You'll be alright. You're coming too. I can't leave you."
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwmnQVx6hK
"Does that mean we can kiss again?" I laugh wiping away the tears.
617Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4K2wzpWSs7
"Of course." Ryder smiles one of his goofy little grins and leans in for another kiss.
