I was sitting in the tree, just watching (y/n) cry to herself. I sigh and just wait for her to stop crying, 'Give it some time..' I thought. As i was watching her i see a couple fish jump out of the water below the bridge, it was a sight to see. Never seen that happen before. "I hate feeling like this, its sad.." I hear (y/n) say.

I started to listen closely, "I hate lying to them, but i end up doing it anyway" She says. She lets out a depressing sigh as she cries silently, For some reason it was hard for me to watch. I didnt look away though, id be a coward if i did that. Besides, its not like i care for her anyway. "I wish i could tell them everything...but its hard".

She started wiping her tears away, but they just kept on falling. I sigh, 'Im prepared to wait all day for you to go home' I thought. I was actually thinking of going over there, like i was passing by or something. So i started climbing out of the tree, very quietly might i add. I hid behind the tree, still watching her. I didnt want her to see me yet.

She might know that i was following her if she see's me come from the tree. When she starts to look at the water closely, i walked out of my hiding spot and made it look like i was just passing by. Once i was at the bridge, it made a creek noise. That caused her to quickly look over at me, "Ah!?" She yelped as if someone pinched her or something.

Then she quickly wiped her tears as if i didnt see them. "Im sorry, i didnt know someone else was here" She chuckles a bit with a small smile. I furrowed my eyebrows a bit, "I was just passing by" I say. I hear her sniff a bit and turned her body towards me, as if she was saying that i have her full attention. 

I then pulled out a cigarette and had my lighter out, "Do you mind" I ask and walk closer to her. I was to close though, "Oh no, i dont mind" She says with the same small smile on her face, I then lit my cigarette and inhaled the smoke. Blowing it out i look at her from the side, "So uhm.." She starts. She seemed nervous, or was it shyness? Couldnt tell.

I wasnt trying to figure her out or anything so i just didnt question it. "I've never seen y-you around here before.." She says and leans on the bridges railing, I puff out some more smoke. "Yea, thats cause i had to come here for a while. Helping a friend" I said, sounding very bored. She gave me a 'hm' as an answer. Then it went quiet.

It didnt feel awkward but it probably was for her, i mean she doesnt know me. "Whats your name" I asked, trying to make conversation so she doesnt leave right away. "My name?" She asked. "Yes" I said blankly, she seemed surprised. Maybe i shouldnt have asked. "Ya dont have tell me" For some reason, i didnt wanna push her to tell me.

I cant scare her away, so i was trying to keep calm and not yell at her for not telling me her name. Even though i already know it. "Its (y-y/n)" She finally said. I puff out some more smoke and just let the cigarette hang from my lips, "You know that s-smoking is bad for you..right?" She said. She sounded as if she was worried about me smoking.

"So" I said, i probably sounded a bit harsh. Not like i meant to but people dont need to tell me what to do or tell me if im doing something wrong. "S-sorry" She stuttered and kept quiet for a second. "S-so uhm what about you? W-whats your name" Did she really wanna know my name or was she just trying to be nice. 

"You dont wanna know" I said, i then dropped the cigarette on the floor and stomped on it. "Sorry" She said once more, why does she keep apologizing? I look at her from the side again and just stare at her, she must have felt my stare cause she looked at me with her head turned towards me. 

"So, why were you crying" I asked. I felt like i knew why but i wanted to hear from her. "I-i wasnt" She says with a nervous laugh, "Im not stupid, i saw tears on your face when i first walked over here" I put my hands in my pocket and cleared my throat, 'Maybe i shouldnt have come over here after all' I thought.
