<Travis's P.O.V.>

As I walked to Zane's house, I got a text. I looked down at my phone and saw it was Aphmau. I smiled, in surprise.
Her text read:
Travis, I know I've been 'ignoring' you ever since me and Aaron started dating. I'm sorry. Aaron didn't like you 'flirting' with me. Again, I'm really really sorry.
See you soon!

I smiled as I put my phone back in my pocket and continued to walk to Zane's.

I knocked on Zane's front door, hoping he will be happy to see me. A few seconds later, the door opened. Zane looked confused.

"How did you get my address?" He asked.

"The same way I got your number. Garroth gave it to me." I answered. He nodded and let me in.

We walked into his living room and sat on the couch. Zane has a very nice house, it was definitely a lot bigger than the house me and the guys have.

"Travis." Zane said.

"Yes, Zane. What is it?" I replied.

"Why do you want to be my friend?" He asked.

"Well... I... You... Um..." I stuttered. I honestly don't know the reason.

"That's what I thought. No one likes me anymore. Not even Aphmau." Zane muttered to himself.

"No! No, it's not like that Zane. I just don't know how to put it into words. And Aphmau is still your friend. Trust me. She just texted me saying that she was sorry for ignoring me." I reassured him. He sighed.

"I know I said I wanted to play video games with you but I'm not in the mood, sorry. You can go home if you want. I don't care." Zane said and stood up from the couch. He started to walk away when I grabbed his hand and pulled him back to the couch.
"What?" He harshly asked.

"Do you want to watch a movie?" I asked. Even though he had a mask on, I could still see his smile and I smiled back at him.

"Sure." He responded and got back up off the couch. Zane went over to his shelf full of movies and turned back to me. "What movie?"

"Something scary." I answered.

"All I have is the first and second 'Saw' and I'm not going to watch that again." Zane replied.

"Why? Are you too scared?" I teased. 'Why am I teasing him?'

"No! Fine we'll watch both of them, then." He answered and took the two movies from the shelf. Zane walked over to his DVD player and put the second movie on the side and opened the first movies case.

"Can you go make some popcorn?" Zane asked as he had the movie case in his hands. I nodded. "The popcorn bag is in the first cabinet on the left and the microwave is on the far right of the kitchen."

I walked into the kitchen and made the popcorn. As I walked into the living room with the popcorn, I saw Zane with tear stains on his cheeks. I started walking faster. When I got to him, I put the popcorn bowl on the coffee table, sat next to Zane and put my arm around him. He laid his head on my chest and started to cry.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"I feel so bad." He answered.

"Why?" I asked, wanting to know more.

"I feel so bad because Aphmau has been so nice to me and I repay her with being mean to her and her husband." Zane answered again, but he started to cry even more.

"It's okay, Zane. We're talking about Aphmau. I'm sure she'll understand." I reassured him. He laughed a little bit as his tears slowed. I grabbed the tv remote from the coffee table as well as the popcorn and started the movie. It was just starting to get dark out so this was the perfect time to watch a scary movie. Zane continued to lay his head on my chest and I continued hold him, just as I was before.
