As I watch Craig flee, I wasn't sure what to do. He was heartbroken and I'm sure of it.

"Umm Rayan, I've gotta go" I said not being able to look into his brown orbs.

I ran down the street trying to find Craig, it was no use. I know myself I shouldn't have given up so easily. He someone has grown close to me, why give up so easily? I couldn't find the answer to my question. I headed on back to my dorm. It was empty, which was a first. I decided to just chill out and listen to the soothing chords of Marc Cray. As I drifted into my thoughts I began to think of life back home, would it be any different? I can't see how there would be a change. Considering in a town of less than 1,00 people one person is gonna make a difference. The blue sky faded into a somber gray, it began to rain. The rain always brings me into a state of tranquility, but it also brings out my worst thoughts. Thought of loneliness, death, and fear. The loneliness I feel everyday from being neglected by people I look to for the answers. Death being something I fear, but at the same time crave. Fear of losing everyone around me, and me being the cause of their disappearance  Everything I touch dies...

A loud thud woke me up from the minor nap I was taking, it was Jacob. He burst into my room and dropped to his knees, tears falling from his eyes. "Why? Why? Why did this have to happen to me? I've done nothing wrong, why does it always find it's way back?!"  he shouted. I quickly came to his aid, with his head on my stomach. "What's wrong Jacob? What is the matter?" I asked while looking into his eyes, he looked so lost. It was as if he died. We lied there in the middle of the floor and he cried in my arms the entire night.

It's been about a week. I haven't seen Rayan around. There has been no sight of Craig. Jacob wouldn't talk to me after his incident, I feel like he is blaming me for something. I feel like a mound of dirt is caving in on me, I'm drowning in my own sorrows trying to fix everyone else.I tried to help Jacob in any way possible but he wouldn't budge he became an object in the room everytime I entered. I was speaking to him about where Craig might have gone, and how I haven't seen him around at all. He wasn't responding to me at all, hell I could jump on top of the boy and he'd probably brush it off as if it's nothing. I told him, I was worried and still no response. I'd think if my best friend was missing, I'd be terrified.  That's when I had enough, "GOT DAMMIT JACOB. WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR PROBLEM? HOW ARE YOU GONNA MOPE AROUND AND EXPECT SOMEONE WHO LOVES YOU TO SIT AROUND AND WATCH. SPEAK TO ME!" I yelled, I may have said too much. 

"FIne, you wanna know what my problem is? I'm being expelled for something I didn't even do and on top of that I have... I have"  he said in a low tone, not even looking at me.

The door opened and to my surprise it was...

Craig
