The bus stopped for gas driving through Texas. I needed to stretch my legs so i moved as quietly as I could getting off the bus going into the gas station. I went inside looking for gummi bears. Walking down the asle someone bumped into me. "Hey," Anthony said, "I'm sorry." "It's okay." We went and stood in line, him behind me, then ge moved next to me. "Why are you standing beside me?" "Im protecting you from robbers." "What robbers?" I laid my stuff on the counter getting out my wallet. "I got it, put it away." He paid then afterwards, it was an awkward silence as we made our way back to the bus. Everyone was still asleep so i sat down at the table in the back of the bus. Anthony followed sitting across from me. "Did he hear me?Does he know?" He asked quietly staring out the window playing with his sour straw container. "No, I can't tell him. It'd break his heart." "I know...I'm sorry but I cant help the way I feel." "I know...." A little while later i got up as Anthony kept setting at the table. Eric was still sleeping when i crawled into the bunk. He put his arm around me, face buried in the back of my neck.....maybe if i just ignore it, this will go away. I couldn't hurt Eric like that, but what about Anthony?
