"Why can't he just leave me alone, he obviously doesn't understand the situation...? I guess how would he?" Jon thought to himself. He was walking to his locker from lunch and Evan had stopped him that morning to talk. Obviously Jon just ignored him and walked away, but it was incredibly painful. He didn't know how much longer he would be able to put up with this, he arrived at his locker and started to open it. As he was going through his locker, someone tapped on the door. It was Evan, but he didn't say anything, he just stood there staring at Jon.

Jon looked up at him once, and then proceeded to get his things and leave. As he was walking away, he felt a tug on his arm. He turned around to see Evan pulling him back, Jon immediately whipped his arm away from Evan. They stared at each other until Evan finally spoke up. "Why are you avoiding me?"—"I'm not avoiding you" Jon mumbled, but it was obvious that he was lying. Evan rubbed his face, "I don't get it, weren't we alright...what happened?" Evan said looking Jon straight in the eyes, making Jon divert his eyes.

"We barely knew each other, why do I matter so much... what happened to all your friends?"—"I told you already that I thought you were cool" Evan rubbed the back of his neck "it's not like you're the same as my friends..."—"You don't want to get close to me"—"What does that even mean? You keep saying things like that, but why?". Jon rubbed his face in annoyance, "I obviously can't tell you why, that would defeat the purpose"—"But that's the problem, you're not even giving me a choice, you're just deciding for me"—"I'm deciding for myself, because I don't want to get hurt". Evan froze for a moment, realizing that he couldn't say anything to that or at least he couldn't prove to Jon that he should try.

"So, you just want to end it here then?" Evan said, but obviously not meaning it. Jon stared at him a bit, almost tearing up and without answering him, he turned around and walked away from him. Jon walked as fast as he could to the bathroom, closing the door and immediately started breaking down. "Well it's over" Jon thought to himself.
