You and Grayson have been friends for a while. He’s just been different. He says he’s sad because summer is over and school starting back up. you just can’t believe how much time you guys have wasted with him getting new friends and slowly ignoring you you wish it could just be you too a bit longer People have noticed you guys haven’t been as close. You guys have been the best friends People have been asking him if you two were OK he’s always said you two were fine but recently you’ve noticed he’s been coming to school with his usual brown hazel eyes green, which means he’s been crying recently has been saying your name is so quick and so straight it sounds like he’s starting to drift away

Currently, you guys are in eighth hour which is geography for you too you sit in the back and he sits one row above you he’s talking to a mutual friend, the friend asks him “Have you talked to [Guest]”

Grayson didn’t react, he said

“I barely even know him”

you couldn’t help but hear them talking and whenever he says that you feel sharp sting in your chest and resist the tears coming then the bell rings signaling the end of the day you go and get your stuff from your locker and walk home since you don’t live far from school whenever you get home no one is home because your parents work late you go to your room Lay down and stare at a picture of you and Grayson and cry like a baby

your phone buzzes with a notification it’s Grayson . He’s checking in on you because you normally wait for him by his locker before leaving school.

What do you do?
