ECHOS POV :

 I felt a vibration in my pocket, causing me to twitch. I couldn’t even imagine being anymore on edge. I took a peek over at my homeroom teacher. He was leaned back in his cushioned spinning chair with a magazine over his face. You could tell by the light rise and fall of his chest that he was in a deep sleep. That’s when I knew it would be safe to check my phone. Sabrina had sent me a message wishing my the best of luck, which only made my stomach churn even more. I wanted to make this quick, but I knew this would take a bit of more time to correct.

 What if Ashley rejected me? What if she would not except my apology? Questions kept playing in my head. I felt more nervous than the first time I spoke Jinx, or even being near her. Not that she mattered right now, or at all at this point because my best friend was more important

 But It was like Ashley turned me into this giant flustered mess all of the sudden. I just missed my best friend and I knew it would only be a matter of time before I couldn’t take the separation anymore. It had been already been driving me mad. Next thing I know I’ll have a one way ticket to the looney bin.

 The bell rang, causing me to lurch forward and bring my nerves to a whole nother level of intensity. I needed to calm down before I had a heart attack and ended up in the hospital. I inhaled a sharp breath and then let it out slowly. Ashley and I had a strong friendship. No little tiff could break us up that easily, I wouldn’t allow that. Hell I shouldn’t of allowed this to continue in the first place! I could have drop kicked Matty the day she ran away from my house. All though the thought of drop kicking Matt did bring a slight joy to my dying heart, I needed to actually focus on the task at hand.

 I began casually walking down the hall (not that it was truly all that casual), anxiously looking for any sign of my friends. I noticed Matty talking to a few of his football friends near some lockers. I turned my head frantically trying to spot Ashley. I wanted to talk to Matt first and her being around would mess things up, because I wasn’t prepared to talk to her at the moment. I wanted to know if he would give me the 411 so we could fix this confusing mess and go back to how things used to be. I stood in the middle of the hall taking another slow breath before making my way to his locker. I cleared my throat when I had arrived.

 “Matt.” I began, twiddling my thumbs quickly to subside my nerves.

 Matt turned around, eyes on me, studying my face. He looked a bit stunned at my presence, but he was not the only one surprised by my dauntless move. I understood the need for shock, I was doing something I could or would never do in a million years, confront something head on was not my thing. My chest began to feel tight. What if he ignored me? What if he said he don’t want to be friends with me anymore? The millions of questions presented themselves, one after another in my brain like a slide show. I refused to back out of this whole mission. I would fix this. I would go out of my comfort zone to mend the broken.

 “I’ll talk to you guys later.” He announced to the football players, dismissing them from their captain.

 The boys all said their farewells before disappearing in the sea of students, while I stared down at my feet in front of Matt, feeling queasier than before. I had absolutely no clue what I even wanted to say to him. I should have had a secure plan ready to go in my head, but I didn’t. I just had a broken heart that needed mending.
