Greg got to his locker and got his stuff together. He closed his locker and just stood there silently staring at me.

I finally got all my stuff into my backpack and headed for the gym.

"Abby, wait!" Greg yelled after me, running to catch up, he caught up. I tried to get away, but he grabbed my hand before I could get away again. "Hey, are you mad at me or something because I feel like you've been avoiding me all day?" he asked.

I just looked away trying to keep myself together. Here I am, I thought, trying to ignore my best friend, he must think I'm a horrible person right now.

Finally, I took a deep breath and said to him, "No. It's just that there's something that I need to say to you but I don't know what you might say or think. I feel like it will ruin our friendship and we might not speak to each other again."

"What?" He replied, "nothing could ever ruin our friendship. Please tell me."
