Mitch’s POV

Why? Why did he do it?

Scott interrupted my thoughts but pushing me a little.

“Mitch, are you okay? You haven’t talked since we left Starbucks.” Scott asked with a look of worry across his face.

“Yes. I have a lot on my mind.”

“Do you want to talk about it when we go home?”

“I don’t know. I’m tired. I might want to sleep.”
“Will you tell me in the morning?” Scott asked.

“Sure.” I replied.

When we got home I headed towards my room.

Scott’s POV

When we got home, Mitch went straight to his room. I guess it’s just me with the movies. I turn on the TV and scrolled through the movies until I found the one I wanted to watch.

When the movie was over it was around midnight, I wanted to check on Mitch. I found him asleep at his desk. I look at his paper and saw my name. It made me smile. ‘Don’t be nosey.’ I said to myself.

I picked up Mitch and laid him in his bed then went back to his desk.

I couldn’t help but look at the paper again.

It had two sides like a pros and cons list. Wait it is a pros and cons list. I pick up the piece of paper. Then I see a similar list beneath it but with Travis’s name?

I grew angry. Was Mitch having second thoughts about me? I don’t understand. I grab a duffle bag and put in some clothes. I need to go and get stress out so I headed to the gym.

Mitch’s POV

“Scott!” I screamed waking up from a terrible dream.

It was quiet; too quiet.

I got out of bed and went to Scott’s room. His bed was neat like no one slept in it. I went to the living room. The TV was on and waiting for someone to press play.

Oh no! I forgot it was movie night last night! Scott must hate me.

“Hey!” Scott said out of breath.

Thank goodness he is okay.

“Scott, where are you?”

“I’m at the gym.”

“Can you come home?” I ask.

“Later, I have two more hours to finish.”

“How long have you been there?”

“I don’t know. I got here around one this morning.”

“Scott, you’ve been there for eight hours! Please come home.” I said.

“I will in two hours!”

 He was starting to get annoyed with me.

“You are over working yourself! Scott, you are going to hurt yourself.” I was going to cry but I did my best not to.

“Why do you care? You are comparing me to Travis! How do you even know him? Actually I don’t care. I will be home later. Bye Mitch.” Scott said angrily and then hung up.
