My Heart beat

As I am continuing to move forward in my book I have learned a lot of new things about the characters. Ellen has learned that her older brother Link and his best friend James might be gay for each other. It was no surprise to me because of how close they were I figured they were gay for each other but Ellen never really thought of it that way. Her friend that she sits with Adena pointed it out. Now that she pointed it out to Ellen, all she wants to know is the truth is James and Link gay for each other or not? When Ellen asked this boldly worded question to the two of them James gave his answer of a not so sure but a maybe. On the other hand for Link he totally avoided the question and flat out was offended and said no. James and Ellen both knew that he blew off the question because the thought of him being gay scares Link. As for James he said it doesn't scare him because love is love but he still isn't sure what he feels. What James wants is for Link to open up to him and Ellen and just be honest and tell them how he feels about all this instead of avoiding the question. Not only is Link angry about this being brought up, he is avoiding James and Ellen. He hates the fact of being gay so much he got a girlfriend named Polly who has been in love with him since he was in the seventh grade. I don't really think he likes her he is just using he to hide his feelings and to make people forget about all this. So for right now I'm not really sure what he wants. But if I were to get I would say he wants to find himself. Some themes that are popping out in the book are Hiding from what defines you is not going to lead you to where you need to be. Another one is don't waste a moment in your life go after whatever you believe in. The book is structured by starting with capital letters in the first sentence of every chapter. Then for the first two pages or so it further explains what happened in the previous chapter. Then it goes on to the new problem. Leading it to the hooking dialogue making you want to read the next chapter.
