I collapsed on the bed. Closing my eyes I kept playing my over in my mind what a beautiful sunset was. I heard my phone buzz. I grab my phone and look at the text. It was Kiyle. I placed my phone back on the bed as I sat up. I was almost late for the nightly game with Kiyle.

Alex
Turning on my computer now. One moment

Kiyle
No rush!

I smile as I sat down at my computer. Reaching for the button turning it on. The door opens and Nathan enters the room and shuts the door behind him. I watch as Nathan almost stubs his food on the edge of his bed as he is so focused on who he was texting. probably Skyler.

" Watch out" I said

" thanks " Nathan said as he looks up.

I watch as Nathan looks at the computer screen. My computer didn't change since I've been gone. I knew that. I heard my phone buzz again. I knew it was Kiyle. I put my headset on logging into the game.

" missed ya Alex " Kiyle said over the headset

" same " I said

" get ready to get destroyed " Kiyle said

" you wish" I replied

I started to tap as I tried hard to beat Kiyle. Three minutes later I was dead. Rolling my eyes I looked back at Nathan who was still on his phone.

" you doing okay?" Nathan asked after a while

" huh?" Umm ya I am. " I replied as I look back at the game as I check that the mic was muted.

Lucky for me it was. Looking back at Nathan I take my headset off. Nathan's eyes motion to my arm. I look up at him meeting his eyes. We could hear the wind outside the snow was blowing all over.

" what's wrong. I know you better than this" Nathan asks

" don't tell mom or dad. They don't know yet. " I said

" promise me. " I add looking at him.

" promise. " Nathan replies

" it got back again. A few days into the trip. I thought... I thought I was getting better but turns out I'm not. I'm really trying right now. No Madi dosent know yet. She knows some but I haven't been able to muster up the courage to tell her the whole thing. " I admit
