7:00 AM

An alarm goes off, a hand reaches over to turn it off. Snooze.

7:10 AM

A hand reaches over to turn the alarm off, he lifts the covers off of himself and sits up. George rubs his sleepy, tear-stained face and walks into his bathroom to see himself. 

"I look like shit." George had a rough night after his thoughts got the best of himself. He had cried himself to sleep convincing himself Clay doesn't even want to be his friend. George washes away the dried tears and doesn't look at himself again for the rest of the morning.

Tuna greets him in the kitchen after he had changed clothes, a granola bar awaits George for breakfast. He scarfs it down and feeds the cat, grabs his bag and gets in the car trying not to worry about what will happen with Clay.

George puts his car in drive and goes to school. He pulls into his usual parking spot, a few cars away from Clay, and gets out with his backpack. Clay gets out of his car and sees George, he runs up to him saying "hi."

George is startled by the sudden interaction, a blush starts creeping onto his face too. "Oh, uh, hi Clay." He says lowly. Clay grows a frown "Is something wrong? D-Did I do something?" he wants so badly to know he didn't do anything wrong. 

George ducks away and whispers "It's nothing, I'm fine."

The boys walk into school and finish out the day, no music room, not much talking. They walk to their cars together saying their 'goodbye's' and parting ways.

George gets into his car and waits for Clay to drive away. Tears start streaming down his face and he can't help but give in, he turns on Spotify pulling out of his parking spot.

He starts singing along without thinking, hot tears still falling. "And I know we weren't perfect but I've never felt this way for no one." The sun is setting, he turns up the volume. "And I just can't imagine how you could be so okay now that I'm gone."

He pours all of his emotions into the next verse, using all of his energy to belt the note. "Guess you didn't mean what you wrote in that song about me." The lights turn green and he drives on, tired from the last verse. "Cause you said forever, now I drive alone past your street."

If only he knew where Clay lives, he could visit him, drive past his house when he feels lonely. George's phone gets a text, but he's too busy crying to notice.
