What's A Soulmate?

Chris' pov ;;

As I sat in my first period class, all I did was stare at the doorway. Ricky was late, as usual, but he should be here by now. He always tells me when he's not coming to school.

I played around with my pen, starting to get nervous. I hope nothing bad happened to him. I don't know what I would do without him in my life.

Okay, yeah, it's a little weird that I have a crush on my best friend. But he's just so cute and nice and... Perfect. And then there's me. I'm nothing special. He would never love somebody like me.

Ricky's pov ;;

After I finished my shower, I lazily blow dried my hair until it was almost completely dry. I walked back to my room, deciding to go back to sleep. I contemplated texting Chris, but decided against it and crawled under my covers. It didn't take long for me to start dozing off, but I was soon interrupted by somebody throwing my bedroom door open.

I groaned loudly and rolled over, facing the door. I saw that it was just Chris, so I rolled back over and closed my eyes. "You should still be in school, ya know. It's only noon." I mumbled tiredly.

I heard him walk over, feeling the bed shift as he sat down on it. He shoved me lightly, causing me to look at him and glare. "Ricky, you can't just keep skipping school like this."

I rolled my eyes at him. "Sorry, mom. I'll go tomorrow if it's such a big deal."

Apparently, that didn't make him too happy. He pushed me so that I was laying on my other side, making me look at him. "Dammit Ricky, stop pushing me away! I'm just trying to help you!" All I did was glare at him. "I don't need any help! I'm fine the way I am!"

He rubbed his face, obviously frustrated with me. "Yeah, whatever. I'm going back to school. Do whatever you want. I won't try to stop you anymore." I watched him get up, and I bit my lip. I got out of bed, following behind him. "Chris, wait. I'm sorry."

He turned around, already at the front door. "No, it's fine. I guess I should've learned by now that you'll always push away my help. And I can't change that." I looked down at the floor, playing with my hands. "I'm sorry... It's just that I-"

Just as I was about to tell him how I felt, he sighed quietly and shook his head. "I don't know why, but you stopped telling me everything. I'm not gonna force you to tell me stuff, but... I feel like you don't trust me anymore."

I felt my eyes start to fill with tears as I looked up at him. "I do trust you, Chris. It's just that I... I can't exactly tell you what's going on right now..."

He just opened the door, looking at me. "Well whenever you feel like telling me, give me a call. I won't bother you anymore." With that, he stepped out and closed the door behind him. I couldn't do anything except stand there and watch him.
