(Sadie's P.O.V)

When Eric and I left the library, he dragged me to a corner so no one could see us.

"What's wrong?" I asked, wondering why it was necessary to hide in a corner.

He let go of my arm and pinched the bridge of his nose, not answering my question.

"Eric-"

"Give me a few minutes." he inhaled as he leaned against the wall.

I heard the library door flung open and Eric nearly jumped out of his skin and peeked to see who it was.

Since he stared for a little while, I assumed it was Noah.

Eric then turned towards me.

"Give me a few minutes." he repeated taking out his phone. He looked like he texted someone. He put away his phone and began breathing heavily.

Did Noah have that much of an effect on him?

"Are you worried about him?"

I know it was obvious that he was but I just wanted to see If he was going to answer truthfully.

"I don't know." Was all he said.

He then received another message. As he read it, it looked like someone slapped him in the face

He suddenly had a stoic expression.

"We're going straight to your house after we visit Luce." he said in a monotone as he gently brushed past me.

The text must've been from Noah.What did he say to Eric?

Eric didn't say a word as we got into his car.

I buckled up and glanced at him as he started the car.

I didn't want to bug him to tell me what was wrong but I just hated seeing him so lost and confused.I'd rather have him be obnoxious.

"Eric?" I called gently.

"Mm?"

"You and Noah sitting in a tree. K-I-S-S-I-N-G" I sang loudly with a big grin on my face.

Suprisingly he didn't do anything, not even a hint of annoyance was on his face.

When we reached the stop light, he rested his head on the wheel.

So, I tried again by singing a random yaoi song.

"The seme is always the bigger, possessive one and uke is normally the innocent stupid one. The uke has to be younger and the younger one has to take it up the butt for the other team member."

He lifted his head up and I thought he was going to yell at me to shut up but instead he waited for the green light.

This is my last resort...

"So, did your tootsie roll go up when Noah leaned on you?" I practically yelled.

I saw his eyebrow twitch and he turn on the radio.

The smile was wiped off my face as I rested my hand on his on the steering wheel. He made no attempt to move it.

I guess the only thing I can do it comfort him.

(Eric's P.O.V) The next day at the cafeteria

Stuffing large amount of leftovers from Blondie's house, I turned towards her.

"You do know that you're allowed to sit with your friends right, Sage?'' I told her, not caring whether or not my mouth was full. She had always made an effort of balancing the time she spends with her friend and I. Since I practically lived out her house (her request, not mine), she spent her free period, before school and some weekends with her friends but spent lunch breaks and after school with me.
