It had been weeks since Joe heard from Donald after that night. He worried daily about his love, and tried calling him, to no avail. He figured he was busy, or didn't want to worry him. So he took matters into his own hands.
---------------------------------
Joe jumped up as his phone rang. He ran to answer it, seeing Donalds picture popping up. "Hello??"
"Joe.... How could you drop out?"
Joe's heart dropped. "I... Did it so you could win."
Donald sighed. "I wanted you to win, so we could be winners together. Please Joe, don't drop out."
Joe shook his head. "I had to. You need to win, it means the world to me."
Donald hung up without saying goodbye. Joe sighed, and hit his head into the wall.
"Stupid! Stupid! Stupid!" He sighed, hitting his head on the wall between each word.
