~Preston's POV~

Tomorrow is the
day.
Graduation.
I'm happy about it but sad in a way.
Happy that I can finally get away from my family, happy that I can get away from the horrible people in that school, but sad and worried that I might lose contact with Rob. I really don't want to, because he's the best friend I've had for years but the most important of all; he treats me like a human, unlike anyone else. I honestly swear my family would trade me for a dog.

On my way home, I stay talking to Rob. I bring up how it really worries me that we might lose contact.

"Don't worry Preston, I'll never do that." he says, patting my back.
"Well, that's what my other friends said when they moved. But they deleted me as a contact, probably forgot who I was." I say, not trying to sound like I want pity, because that's the last thing I want to be honest.
Rob just frowns and we continue to talk about happier stuff going home.
Before he crosses the road, he brings me into a hug. My stomach erupts into butterflies and it feels like there are thousands of butterflies fluttering about in it.
"See ya later Preston!" he says and crosses the road, into his house.
I just stood there in shock.
Wait..
Do I have.. feelings for him?
Or is this just what happens for others?
Does he do this to all of his best friends.. or?
The only thing that makes me find this weird and makes me think it's more than a bro hug is that Rob came out as bisexual last year..
I wonder does he have feelings for me?

After about 5 minutes of standing there stuck in my thought I shake my head and snap out of it and walk home.

As I walk in, dinner is ready almost straight away.
Finally, my mom brings up a topic.
"Preston, do you know that your graduation is tomorrow?" she says, as loud as possible knowing that I usually block out everything everyone at this table say.
I just simply nod my head and go back to eating.
"I'm glad to get him out of here." my brother piped up, and I sarcastically smiled at him.
"Me too." I mutter back.

I walk away from the table as soon as I can and lock the door to my bedroom. I pick up my phone and I see I have a text from Rob.

'I've been wanting to do that for a while.'

'Do what?' I reply back, sounding clueless to him but knowing exactly what he meant.

'I know you know what I mean lol' he texts back, almost instantly.

'Uhh.. Rob.. do you have anything you want to tell me?'

My face starts to turn red.

After about five minutes, he still didn't reply so I put my phone down for a while and start to play Minecraft.

I play a game called 'Micro Battles', and I kill 7 people and die.
"Gosh dangit.." I say, chuckling
There's a few people chatting in the chat and I look to see what they were saying.

'TBNRFrags HAX!!!!!!1'
'Wow ur good man!!'
'TBNRFrags aw damn man. U were so close to killing that guy.'
'TBNRFRAGS IS A HAXCER STOP HACKXING WAt The ****!!!!!!!!?!!'
'TBNRFrags more liek TBNRFag.. stOOOop hackinh get a life lol ur eZ'
That message seemed to harm me the most..
I type in chat.
'G3tR3ktF4g wow what a lovely name. Please, learn English before you start trying to interact with me. Thank you ;)'
Everyone in the chat starts screaming

'LOLLL BURNN'
'GET THE REK LOL'
'do you need some ice with that burn? LOLOLOL'

he finally replies
'shut up fag go drown in a pool of ur own blood kys lol'
-G3tR3ktF4g has left the game:
'Wow.. immature much? xD' i type in chat.
Some people try to comfort me and tell me to ignore him, and I do so.
'Thats enough for today, thanks guys!' I say and close Minecraft.
I look at my phone to see a message from Rob.
'Kind of.. well.. a lot..'
