A few weeks passed and she realised that the was right. His ex had taken off with another girl and there were rumours going around school. He had been heartbroken when he heard. He began to cry when he got home, he then heard a ding come from his phone.
She'd messaged him asking if he was alright, she knew when her best friend was upset.
He always covered his true feelings with a happy facade. He'd make stupid jokes and sometimes get kicked out of class for talking too much. She knew when he was alone was when it would strike the worst. He had a fear of being alone, she had a fear of everyone leaving. Not too different but not the same.
She'd messaged him a sweet I hope you're alright, and a I'm here for you. That was when he really cried.
