TRAVIS' POV

Travis sighed, Everyone was hanging at Aph's for the night. It was New Years eve, the ball was about to drop. But somehow Travis found himself away from the noise, staring into his reflection. He pushed away his white hair from his eyes in annoyance. He's always hated his hair.

Then a knock came. "Can you please hurry? I just want to be away from everyone right now.", A voice grunted, obviously distraught. "Just come in Zane, I'm not doing anything.",  He replied, recognizing the voice. The door slowly opened, revealing the smaller male. He looked tense, as he pushed himself against the wall. "Why are you in here? Go party with them.", Zane urged. "Not everyone's happy  all the time Zane.", Travis sighed, leaving the room and slamming the door slightly. Yet, no one from the living room noticed. He rubbed his eyes, feeling tired and put on a smile. "Heeeeyyy everybody! Travis is back!", He said walking over to everyone. "You almost missed it!", Dante said grabbing his wrist and pulling him infront of the TV.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!", Everyone yelled in sync. Confetti falling to the ground, Everyone danced, laughed, and smiled. Though, It just felt like another boring year to Travis. Eventually he disappeared again, feeling his eyes grow watery. He burst into the bathroom, Zane obviously still there. He rubbed his eyes, breathing. "You uh, okay?", Zane asked hiding his worry. "Just.. Overwhelmed. I'm okay.", He laughed it off. 'You're supposed to be a people person!', His thoughs yelled at him, but he tried his best to ignore it.

"You missed the count down, Zane."

"I heard."

They both chuckled, Mostly Travis. "I might just go home, I'm tired.", Travis shrugged. "You're a big baby, Come on, everyone will look for you.",  Zane muttered getting up and leading Travis to the living room. "OOOh, Travis why are you with Zaneee?", Aphmau asked. "Haha, I bet they were making out.", Katelyn rolled her eyes. "Seriously, If it was Dante I wouldn't get any questions.", Travis glared. Zane sat in silence, as if he were okay with their teasing. "Why don't you and your boyfriend go back to the bathroom? Maybe be louder sometime~ We'd love to record it.", Laurence scoffed. Travis watched as Zane's hand bawled into a fist. "Go on, we're waiting.", Aaron pushed.

"I just passed him coming back from the kitchen okay? Jesus what are we 12? Go find a joke that's actually funny.", Travis said holding back tears. He stormed outside onto the front porch. Crying. He hated his friends, and he hated Zane. He made him look bad.

Zane walked out. "I'm sorry, Travis. Ignore them.", He soothed. "Just leave me alone, this is all your fault.", He snapped, avoiding eye contact with Zane. "Are you serious? You're such a little baby, I come to help and you yell at me? The joke was annoying, sure. Even upsetting, but damn doesn't make it my fault.", Zane said walking away.

Travis watched, 'Idiot.', He though to himself.
