Coming Out
I'm falling in love with my Secret Admirer and I still have no clue if the one I have in mind is the correct one.
~ Natalie James's POV ~
I was holding onto Mila, feeding her, her breakfast bottle when Garrett came downstairs with Milo.
We smiled at each other, they're so cute.
I went back upstairs to lay Mila down in her crib which was lavender while Milo's was decorated sage green.
I went downstairs and made breakfast, mom had started taking morning shifts so she could spend noon and night with the twins.
Mom came home an hour later with a smile, she's been happy since the twins came yesterday.
"Morning mama."
I said as I handed her, her coffee which she gladly took.
We walked to the dining room and sat down.
"Morning baby, how are the twins?"
"They're good mama, I have a question."
I was ready to ask her if I could have a Night out in Atlanta, prepared to be turned down because of the twins.
"What is it honey?"
She asked, her voice is soft and warm.
I enjoyed her company, it made me feel like I was important no matter what I did or what happened.
"Can Garrett and I have a night out in Atlanta with Jayla, Javon and Jaden?"
I was ready to be turned down.
"Yeah of course, go live your lives as teenagers."
I smiled at her and kissed her forehead, I'm guessing she didn't want us to miss out.
I quietly went upstairs and walked into Garrett's room, normally he's playing a game so I didn't knock.
But I walked in on him talking to a boy, he was blushing and I couldn't help but stand there shocked.
"Gare.."
I looked at him and he looked at me shocked, he quickly closed the door and grabbed my arm.

He sat me down on the bed and went on pause.
"NJ, it's not what it seems."
"I support you."
He looked at me and didn't say anything, his eyes were attacked with tears.
I hugged him tightly and rubbed his back, he sobbed into my shoulder.
"I can't believe you were right."
I laughed as I wiped his tears and kissed his temple.
I always knew, he couldn't hide it from me even if he tried hard enough.
He went off pause and handed me the phone, I saw a dark skin boy.
"Hi, I'm Valentino."
"Hello Valentino, I am Natalie James."
He was so sweet, he complimented my hair and was so nice.
He taught me some skateboard tricks and then gave me some advice, he was right for my brother.
"Mom said we could have a night out in Atlanta, Valentino, are you in Atlanta?"
I asked politely, I wanted to invite him.
"NJ, are you dumb?"
My brother asked, it was at the moment I realized he is since my brother met him.
I face palmed which caused Valentino to laugh.
"I am, why?"
"I'm inviting you to our night out in Atlanta, it'll be so much fun!"
Valentino hesitated a bit, but smiled and agreed to come.
Garrett messaged him our address and told him to come at eight, I left his room and went off to mine.
I had to write back, luckily my handwriting has gotten better and I had a pack of glitter pens along with loose leaf.
I began to write, I didn't stop until I had everything I wanted to say on page.
Mohammad Ali, great choice.
I hope you don't miss me too much, or I'd have to plan a meet up.
But to answer your question, yes, yes I would.

Love is amazing and comes unexpectedly.
Now for your question, would you do anything for the love of your life?
Love, The One You're Admiring
I walked downstairs and left to the gym, I got there and quickly ran inside.
I left the note in my locker since that's where we put all of our notes, I ran to the car and drove to the Waltons.
I knocked on the door, Daelo answered and quickly hugged me.
I laughed and picked him up.
"Hey mumps, how are ya?"
I tickled him, he began to laugh and when I tell you it was adorable, I mean it.
"I'm good!"
"That's good Mumps, where's the J gang?"
I asked as I walked into the kitchen but they weren't there.
"Jayla's room."
I nodded and walked upstairs to Jayla's room, I knocked twice and waited for a response.
After I heard 'come in!' I walked inside.
Jaden was the first to notice me and ran over, he was the funniest one out of three.
He lifted me up and twirled me around.
"OH MY GOD ITS NJ!"
He shouted like a fangirl which caused me to laugh hard, Javon hugged me next and then Jayla.
"My mom said we could have a night out in Atlanta, y'all in?"
I asked politely and waited for the responses, Javon looked at Jaden and Jayla.
"Yeah, we should definitely go."
Jayla answered which made me smile, we walked downstairs and went to the living room.
There was knock on the door, Jayla went to get it.
Jayla returned with a girl, I smiled and waved.
"NJ, this is Kylee, Kylee this is NJ."
Kylee returned the smile and soon we talked and got close.
I invited her to the plans and she accepted it.
After a while, the boys ran upstairs to do whatever and we stood downstairs.
I sighed as I sat down on the couch beside Kylee.
"What's up, you seem down."
Kylee asked as Jayla walked in and sat beside me.
I took a deep breath, trying to decide whether or not I should tell them.
"I've been getting love letters and I think I'm falling for the person but I have no idea whose sending them."
I blurted out, Kylee rubbed my back as I took a deep breath and put my head in my hands.
Jayla's jaw dropped and she looked at me with a smile, it was like she knew something I didn't.
"That's your dilemma?"
Kylee asked me, I nodded embarrassed.
"Its okay, you'll find out soon."
Kylee was so supportive, I was sure she was going to make fun of me or turn it to herself.
I guess my ex best friends weren't as amazing as I thought they were.
I'm falling in love with my Secret Admirer and I still have no clue if the one I have in mind I'd the correct one.
Kylee hugged me and so did Jayla, they were amazing friends.
Well, now they're my best friends even if I did just meet Kylee.
