"Drake!" I called to his back until he turned around with a curious look painted across his face. "This is not a part of my plan."
"What plan?" he challenged, eyes daring me to rebut him.
"My plan" I replied with a sigh, why didn't he get it? "Everyone has a plan Drake; some people want to go to college, or some people just want to go straight into a full-time job, some people even travel and move out of state."

For a while, it was silent. Neither of us made a move to talk, yet the tension in the air rose still, choking all life out of the room. Just as I turned on my heel, not willing to wait for a reply that never seemed like it was going to arrive, he spoke.
