Confusions Of Love

Epilouge "Warm reunion"

Few months later...

I'm resting my head on Michael's shoulder, the fall winds blew past us, as we sat on the bench of Suffolk's courtyard. "This has been one hell of a year huh?" Michael asked. I looked up at him and said "what you mean?" He held on to my hands

Michael: well other than us.. us transferring schools, and the people we met. Speaking of, you think Drake and Nick will ever forgive me ?

Craig: yeah plus us losing Oscar. I can't believe it's been so long already. As for Drake and Nick. I'm sure they forgave you. We will never be able to break the social link us four shared in canton.

Michael: thanks I feel relieved hearing you say this. I've been scared to text them since us moving back. Also carter how are you feeling ?

Craig: what do you mean ?

Michael: well.. without Cartexzcat? Don't you feel different?

Craig: it's not that much of a drastic change Mikey. Dreams have been lonely. You wouldn't understand. I barely remember my dreams anymore. He made them so memorable and made sure we realized the lesson in what we were seeing.

Michael: *sigh* semester starts in a few days...

Yooooooo! We hear. To see Drake and Nick standing in front of the entrance of the library. I get up from the bench and called there names and ran to them. I jumped into Nicks arms. He hugged me and said "carter !" He placed me down and Drake put his arm around my shoulder and said "long time no see cat." Nick started rolling his shoulder and said "damn Craig have you been working out?" I laughed and shook my head no.
I looked back at Michael, who was watching us from a distance. I grabbed on there arm and said "come on you guys you must see Mikey." I dragged them both over to Michael. Michael stood up and looked at Drake and Nick. The moment felt so intense.

Drake: Michael ?

Michael: Drake ? Nick? Hello. It's been some time.

Nick: yeah bro. It's been five months.

Craig: it's like a reunion all over again. Dorm 312 still lives on!

Drake: Hell yeah !

Nick: you don't look happy to see us ?

Michael: I thought you guys hated me.

Drake: we did for a like a month.  But we thought about, if Craig is not mad. Why should we right ?

Nick: well I forgave you for most but I can't for the fact you tried to push Oscar in our room not knowing if Craig was coming back or not. That was very shady to me still.

Michael: I'm sorry for trying to force that on you guys. *extends hand* friends?

Nick: ....friends *shakes hand* 

Craig: ooooooooh guys ! *laughs*  I'm so excited  you guys came.

Michael: not to be a dick, but why did you come ?

Nick: well the semester starts for you guys and Drake in a few days. We just wanted to say good luck considering none of us will be sharing the same home for a while. Drake is still in canton with Lexie , you guys are down here and Nicole is studying a broad in New York City.

Craig: yeah that's right. I'm glad everyone is moving on but you didn't say what's up with you.

Nick: me, nothing special honestly, I'm living back with our moms and I'm working part time helping with the bills.  I went for a corrections officer position but got denied because of my past record of street fighting.
