Never Give Up (Connor Franta Fan Fiction)

Chapter 26

** Avery POV **

Say something, I'm giving up on you.

I'll be the one, if you want me to.

Anywhere I would've followed you.

Say something, I'm giving up on you.

And I am feeling so small.

It was over my head

I know nothing at all.

I flipped through the songs on my phone looking for one that didn't remind me of Connor, but there wasn't one so I opted to give up. I threw it at the wall just as Raynah walked though the door. I didn't even care when I heard the screen shatter, at least now I don't have to see that one of the pictures me and Connor took together in California was still my background.

"Avery your phone!" Raynah gasped.

"I really don't care." I said rolling out of bed and grabbing my phone and clothes then going in to the bathroom to get ready ( http://www.polyvore.com/avery_15/set?id=111525862). Its been almost a month since me and Connor broke up. It still bothers me, it bothers me even more that he left school and moved somewhere else. Maybe he moved back in with his parents? Possibly.

Today was the first day I was actually getting ready. I haven't really done anything since the whole break-up thing. I really hate that word break-up. But I am going to study with a friend today so I can at least get some social interaction with people other than the usual people I spend time with.We are going to a cafe right outside of the campus. I said good bye to Raynah and walked out to my car. It took not even 3 minutes for me to get there.

I walk in to see one of the only friends I have made through out this whole year that I still talk to. He reminds me of like Zac Efron, the only difference is that Zac has darker hair and is not as tan.

"Joe!" I smiled as he picked me up and hugged me. Me and him have gotten close the past few months due to the fact that we had almost all our classes together. He really understands what I have been through. No matter what he's there for me. We started studying as I saw Joe's hand move closer and closer to mine. It soon enveloped my own hand.

I moved my hand away when memories of Connor came flooding into my mind. Why is this happening now? I just stared down at my notebook like nothing was happening. When I looked up Joe was giving me a confused look.

"Is everything ok?" He asked, his hand still sitting there. I moved my hand so his was back on top of mine.

"Umm yeah... I'm fine." I hesitated a little looking back at my book. All of a sudden my book was shut. "Hey I have to study." I said sounding like a bitch once I said it.

"Sorry. " I said as I starred into his gorgeous blue eyes. His eyes are blue with silver specks. UGHH WHY IS HE SO HOT?

"About what?" He questioned pulling his bottom lip between his teeth and smiling.

"About sounding like a bitch." I said point blankly to him.

"A beautiful girl like you could never sound like a bitch." I suddenly felt like I wanted to climb across the table and just start making out with him. It felt so right, but was so wrong. "Avery...Did you hear me?" I was brought back to reality by Joe waving his hand in front of my face.

"Um sorry I was just umm..thinking... ummm what were you saying?" Well that was a little embarrassing.

"I was saying that I have really enjoyed spending time with you this year. We got really close and I have really enjoyed spending time with you. And I was wondering if you wanted to come to California with me to visit my family."
