He Signed My Cast {Connor x Evan}

Connor Murphy {11}

It was great to know that Evan's okay and that he feels better. But once I was done talking to him, I still remembered that me and him were alone. Jared hasn't come back and it was kinda awkward with just me and him. Alone. Together.

This is a starting to make me feel very awkward. I pretty much just had a heart to heart with him and now it's like I can't even talk to him. What do I say?

"Oh Hey! Uhh... since your here. Maybe we could talk about the project me and you have to do together."

I simply just nodded my head.

Of all the things, he had to talk about school..... oh well. I guess it's fine if I get to be with him longer.

I smiled at my thought and Evan looked at me weirdly.

"You ok there Connor?"

"Yeah. I-im fine. Uhhh..... where's Jared?"

"I don't know. Last I saw him he went into the kitchen. I'll be right back."

He left and went towards the kitchen. I waited in the living room, not knowing what to do. I sat there until he came back.

"I'm guessing he left out the back. I don't know. Jared does this."

"Well he's a good friend." I said sarcastically

"Tell me about it. I uhh....... guess we can go to my room. If that's ok with you?"

"Uhh..... sure. I honestly don't care."

He nodded his head and we both went up to his room. I saw that his room was neatly organize, clean, pretty much perfect.

Like him.

I smiled at my thought again, this time he didn't notice. We sat on his bed and he pulled out a notebook from his backpack.

"Ok. So the assignment says that we have to make a poster about each of our interests."

"So like.... things about ourselves?"

"I guess so.... should I go first or you?"

"Umm...... you."

"Oh... ok then. Well.... I'm pretty much an only child, my dad left me and my mom a while ago. I'm actually a tree expert, not to brag though."

I laughed at what he said.

"I have really bad social anxiety and I'm self conscious about..... certain things. Uh... I spend most of my time alone."

He continued to talk about himself and I was still listening, but I was also thinking about what he meant when he said "certain things."

"So... what about you?"

"Me?"

"Yeah. I told you mostly everything about me. I wanna know what you're  like."

"There's one word that can describe me. Troubled. That's all I am."

"You know that's not entirely true. There's gotta be something about you that's good about you."

"Nothing I can thing of."

"Well, what do you do when your not at school?"

"I just stay in my room and either sleep, go on my laptop or my phone. That's it."

"Really? Well.... Then just tell me about yourself."

"Well, there's really not much to tell. I have a family that hates me, no friends except you and Jared, and everyone at school fears me."

"Connor. You know I know that's not true. And so do you."

"Well what am I then? I can't change. That's just something I can't do."

I stared down at the floor, practically hating myself. That is until I felt a hand on intertwine with mine.
