That day I made it home barely. I had almost passed out multiple times, it was terrifying. I felt so alone. I still can feel the sweat running down my eyes had a burning sensation . It's been a week since. Oakley has tried to call me plenty of times, but I've ignored each call. The ringing tone is taunting. I feel like a coward,but what else will I do? What would I say to Oakley? "Oh hey! Sorry for a week ago and sorry for ignoring all your calls! I realized I fell for you and now I regret ever meeting you but still want you apart of my life!" I'd sound insane. I already do. I mean, I'm just a boy in a crumbling society. I never wished to fall in love, nor did I ever want to. Sometimes I wonder what Oakley could be trying to tell me though. Would he apologize? That'd be dumb, he hasn't even done anything wrong. I mean- I'm the one who ran off apologizing. I wish I could punch myself in the face but I'd rather not go outside with a black eye. Maybe- just maybe. Maybe I should answer a call. I don't have to say anything. But what if I-.. Hesitating is dumb. I need to know whether or not I will answer. [I miss his voice. A lot.] Just once. It's okay if he hates me. [No it's not]. You know, who even cares he loves someone else. It's not my business. [I love him, I love him, I love hi-]
-Bzz...Bzz..-
Wait- I- I didn't expect a call right at the moment. What a terrible coincidence. I can feel my hand trembling, I gently tap on the button, answering the call. I can hear Oakley panting heavily, his voice trembling," O-Oh my god! You picked up! Are you okay?!" I coughed awkwardly. well no, I'm not okay I'm both heartbroken and sleep deprived but whatever. I..- I can't say that. I spoke, trying to sound calm," E-Erm..- Yeah, uh. I'm okay. Thanks." That's probably the most awkward response ever. He doesn't seem to worried about it. I can hear his bed creak. He must be at home, huh. How fun. "H-Hey! Cole! You- what was the whole ordeal back then?" I began choking up once more. I should've just not said anything. "I-I- I was feeling bad." "For what?" He questioned. "Y'know, for pushing you to break up with your boyfriend." "Then why'd you ignore me for like- a week?" I- I literally have no excuse. Fuck. I was gonna spout out some nonsense but he began speaking once more, his voice full of cheer," Oh yeah! I forgot to tell you! Well- not forgot. You just haven't picked up." I chuckled sheepishly,"Well what is it?"
["I broke up with my boyfriend. You were right, that wasn't love."]
-I feel my heart thumping, I might actually have a chance. Hope fills throughout my body, causing a sense of peace.-
[I might be able to win his heart.]
A/N: wow looks who's back, me. Yeah- I have no excuse honestly, this story was kinda left for the dust but I decided to get back into the story, though I have a new direction for the ending. (Originally it was gonna end up s a d but hey, half of the things I write have unfortunate endings). Anyways- I do not expect to see much attention for this story anymore, it's kinda just a side project? I have plenty of other things I'm working on seriously, this story is fun tho. I rewatched banana fish a few weeks ago too, so I have lots of energy to write. Anyways, go drink some water and get a snack. Lots of love!
