Why? {A Tree Bro's Book} [Evan X Connor] (Discontinued)

Friends?

Sorry I have not updated, shit has been happening. But, here we go!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~Evan's POV~

I walk up stairs to Connors' room, which I assumed was the door that had a poster that said 'GO AWAY'. I knock on the door and wait for a response. Nothing. I open the door to find Connor in the corner of the room with his knees to his chest, crying quietly. I walk over to him and look down at him.

"What's wrong, C-connor?" I say, kinda nervous. "Why would you fucking care. You don't even know me...." Connor mumbles. "Um.... W-well, I, um...." I didn't know what to say. He's right. I barley know this kid. I don't know what he's going through. "Can you just leave me alone to sob by myself?" He asked- well, more like telling me. I look at him, with his soft looking hair and eyes. I decided to sit next to Connor, sliding down the wall. "I.... I know how it feels." I say trying to find the right words. "What are you talking about?" Connor asked, confused on my statement. "Well, I-I know what it's like to have people treat y-you like your not there..." "...."

~Connor's POV~

I..... I really don't know what to say. Maybe he really does know how I feel. "...." "L-look.... I know you don't really like me. B-but I just wanted to let you know t-that you're not alone..." "...." Tears roll down my cheek as I stay silent, looking at the ground. He really does think I hate him. "I'll leave you alone if you would like." Evan said, heading towards the door. "Wait....." I said quietly, but loud enough for him to hear. I stood up and walked to him. "T-thanks." I said with another tear rolling down my cheek. 

~Evan's POV~

I could feel my cheeks heat up due to how close Connor was to me. "O-oh... No p-problem." I say with a small smile. He wipes his tears off and gives a small smile too. This is the first time I've ever seen him genuinely smile. I'm glad I could see it. I walk out the door and walk down stairs. "Oh, uh. Your mom is outside on the phone. She said that you could stay in here if you want." Zoe said looking at me. "O-oh. Okay." I decided to wait inside, sitting on the steps of the stairs. I feel a tap on my shoulder and I jump. "Hey." It's Connor. I feel my face go red from embarrassment. "O-oh... Hey, Connor." "So, uh... I was wondering if you, want my number. Y-you know, if you want to talk, or something..." Is... Is Connor stuttering? Why would he have to stutter? "Uh. S-sure, do you want m-mine?" "Yeah! That would be cool." We exchange numbers when my mom walks in.

"Evan.... May I talk to you for a minute?" "Oh, sure mom." I respond as me and my mom walk outside. "What's wrong, mom?" I say, kinda scared of what the answer would be. "I just got off the phone.... With someone." My mom says with a serious tone. "W-with who?"

"..."

"Your father..."

Alright! That was chapter two. I know, short chapter. I wasn't sure what to call this chapter, and I wasn't positive on the plot so, sorry. Tell me your guys opinion in the comments on the title, because it was this or "Unexpected phone call". If you guys want, you don't have to.
