THE CLOSET WITH A GLASS DOOR

" Andy! You're friends here! " Andy's mother called out. Andy shot his head up and started running.

" Coming! " Once he reached the door,

" Hey. "

" Hi. " Sammy wore a light mossy green shirt, a long necklace with a key on it, dark gray shorts with very worn out and dirty Converse. He had pretty bad eyebags, and some light freckles scattered around his face. His hair was short, scruffy, and a mess.

" Come in! " Andy smiled and moved over to allow him to walk in.

" Thanks. " Sammy takes a step in and looks around, Andy grabs his hand and starts walking him somewhere.

" I'll take you to my room quickly, sorry I've gotta pee. '' Andy drops Sammy off in his room as he sprints off to the bathroom. Sammy looks around Andy's room, smiling, he was finally spending time with his first puppy love. He had his eyes glued on his desk, it was empty other than a page and a pen. Sammy picks up the piece of paper and starts reading it. " I would break my own heart and use the pieces to fix yours. '' Each word that his eyes pass makes him sadder, Andy had already liked someone, though another way to view it, figure out who he likes... check out the competition.

Sammy finished reading when he heard Andy's footsteps, he rushed to put the poem back in place and sat down on the bed.

" Hey, sorry about that, I've had to pee all day. " Andy sighs and looks at his desk, he has forgotten about the note. He quickly grabs the poem and shoves it in the bin.

" So, what do you want to do? " Andy smiles and sits down next to Sammy. Andy looks at Sammy, noticing he didn't bring anything other than a small bag that contained a toothbrush, inhaler, and some band-aids.

" Didn't you bring pajamas? " Andy opens the small bag. Searching.

" No, I don't sleep in pajamas, I just sleep in my day clothes... '' Sammy straightened his lips. Andy stared in shock with his jaw wide.

" I'll lend you my clothes to wear, d'you want to go outside? 'Round town? " Andy offered, standing up.

" Uh, sure. " Sammy smiled wearily. Andy nods, smiles, and walks downstairs to the door, he grabs the house key from a bowl on a table next to the door.

" I'm headed out, ma! " Andy called out.

"Sure, where to? A party? Will there be girls there? Should Lily go with you? " His mother responded. Andy sighs sharply.

" There's no party, no girls, and no Lily doesn't have to come with. " Andy opens the door.

" See you! " An unfamiliar voice called out.

" Bye, Lily! "

The two boys exited the house and began walking to the town center. Sammy had heard the name ' Lily ' Mentioned multiple times, overthinking about who this girl could be, his girlfriend? Friend? Cousin? He had no clue and was fixating on it.

" So, who's Lily? " Sammy asked.

" She's amazing. Only my very funny and cool sister. " Andy looks up at Sammy and smiles. Sammy felt relieved, but also awkward considering he thought for a split second they could've been dating.

" She sounds nice, are you close? " Sammy maintained a conversation.

" Very close, we have been inseparable by the hip since I was born, she's older, and well, we link because... she's... different. '' Andy looks at his feet when saying the first part.
