Rain
Comic 39 - Making a Scene
Author Notes:
(I’d like to just point out that the boys would have their own gym teacher, as the boys and girls would naturally be separated during this class. Incidentally, I didn’t think of anyone for that role yet though, so we’re just going to pretend he’s really late for whatever reason. In this case, Mrs. Parker has every right to yell at even the boys to return order… and apparently pelt people with basketballs? Well, that might just be her getting aggressive as things continue to blow up in her face throughout the day...)
Anyway, that could have gone a lot better. I mean, I guess it COULD have been a lot worse too. Like, a LOT. But it still wasn’t an ideal scenario. I rather feel bad for Rain.
I think the harshest part about all of this is that Gavin isn’t actually trying to be a jerk. It might be a little unclear WHAT he’s trying to do right now, but he’s not trying to be a jerk. Do keep in mind that if he was, he really could’ve outed Rain at any time… so why doesn’t he? Food for thought?

I can't wait to see how Rain makes it through a Catholic HS...though there's always a part in my brain (my screwed up, screwed up brain) that worries that another Zoe/Nina moment could happen (and that wasn't even cuz of Zoe's T-ness, it was for a part in a play!) and make me feel down for a long time.
I can imagine this guy's surname is Grissom, has a buzzcut, solidly built and is seriously prejudiced over certain minorities (but with a secret, which explains why).
