hey

so it's two days since he...

well

i guess i'm able to type this out now without completely losing my eyesight to blurs of tears

okay, here we go

basically, we texted 24/7 for the first four days, and everything was the best, i felt great, the happiest i'd ever been

key word: felt, which is is in the past tense

the fifth day, i noticed he stopped calling me cute nicknames

no more sunshine

no more gato (that's spanish for cat, because my name's kat)

no more cupcake

not even little miss popular

(it seems the title of this story is no longer me)

i felt a little down about it, but i pushed those negative feelings of doubt away

then, a couple hours later, i noticed that he had stopped saying suggestively sexual things or even lightly flirting back with me

i began to worry

i asked if i was annoying him, if i was texting him too much, but he assured me that i wasn't annoying him, and he just doesn't talk much

i felt a little better

but then, he started saying he was busy when i knew what he was doing

and i felt a little more upset, but i decided to leave him be in that moment because i was probably annoying him, and i would definitely be if i kept texting him

the sixth day, in class

he tells me that he's not used to talking to someone all hours of the day and that it's "weird" for him

his explanation was in a negative tone, as if this weird was bad

but i remembered the first couple days and his constant eager replies

...was it not weird in the beginning then?

at this point, i was absolutely paranoid and i really felt like i had done something wrong, and i felt really bad about making him feel uncomfortable with whatever i had done.

so, after school, i typed out this:
