We Don't Talk Anymore

Chapter 3

It was currently seventh period, history. The last class of the day. Evan and Jonathan had that class together which was bad after happened. What was even worse was that they sat next to each other in the middle of the room.

The teacher was giving a lecture on how the Great Depression happened and what was going on. Students took notes while others were on their phones or talking. One of them being Evan while the other taking the notes was Jonathan.

Every time the teacher changed the next slide, Evan would glance at Jonathan. He had so much concentration on his face that he didn't even know that Evan was staring.

"Hey! Del! Can borrow a pencil?" Evan asks.

Jonathan just glances at him but ignores him and continues with the notes. Evan kept tapping his arm while Jonathan kept shrugging it off.

"C'mon, Del! I know you can't ignore me forever!" Evan whispers.

"I'm sorry, but do I know you?" Jonathan snaps back.

Evan gets wide eyes and stares at him for awhile. Jonathan goes back to taking notes and continues to ignore Evan.

"C'mon, Jon! It was an accident! Can't you just lis-"

"Mr. Sanders, can I please move? I can't concentrate with this guy talking to me," Jonathan says.

"Of course. You can come sit up here in the front if you'd like. And Evan! Stop talking or I'm going to send you outside for the rest of the class, got it?" He points to Evan.

Evan nods his head. Some girls in the back giggles and the actions while the guys roll their eyes. Evan kept staring and Jonathan throughout the rest off the class, while Jonathan kept ignoring him.

After class...

Everyone got packed up and was leaving. Jonathan was one of the first to leave. While he was walking, he heard someone shout...

"Jonathan Dennis!"

He knew the voice, which is why he kept walking and ignoring it.

"Jonathan! Stop ignoring me and talk to me!" Evan shouts.

He just kept walking while everyone was staring.

"Jonathan! Jonathan, c'mon!" Evan kept shouting.

He then turns around and glares at him.

"What do you want, Fong?!" He says angrily.

"To you to talk to me!" He says.

"Alright! Goodbye Evan! Leave me alone and go with your 'friends.' I'm sure they want answers on why you are talking to a 'fag' like me," he says before walking away.

"What's wrong with you? It was just a harmless prank!" Evan says while catching up.

"Harmless prank? A harmless prank?! Do you have any idea how much you ruined my life?! Yeah, for a harmless prank, you sure did fuck up my life! Now leave me alone! I don't want to see you in my life. Ever. Again."

Jonathan then leaves while he left Evan there speechless. He didn't know that a prank can ruin his best friend's life.

He felt awful and guilty for doing it. He knew that he was going to fix it. But the real question is...

How?
