Oliver opens the door hearing the door click in place after closing it. His principal walks out of her room with a stack of papers, she looks at Oliver with curiosity

"Hello Oliver. What do you need?"

"Hi ma'am. I was sent here after one of the teachers yelled at me for no good reason. I was just talking with my friend, Dylan! Then she came up and screamed at me!"

"What was her name?"

"Mrs. Wangburg..."

"Ah. Let me call her to the office, along with Dylan."

"Ok." She takes the phone off of it's stand and asks for Mrs. Wangburg and Dylan to come to the office.

"Hello Mrs. Young."

"Hello Mrs. Wangburg. Oliver was sent here by you, yes? For simply talking to his friend?"

"Actually, calling him a jerk."

"If he didn't mean any offence, he's fine. Did he call you that on purpose Dylan?"

"I mean, yeah, but not in a vicious way..Mrs. Wangburg made him pass out in the hallway too."

"Mrs. Wangburg. Let's have a chat in my office. Now."

Mrs. Wangburg and Mrs. Young walk in Mrs. Young's office. Dylan and Oliver hear yelling. Then Mrs. Wangburg storms out of the office and walks to her room grabbing her stuff and leaving. 

"I'm sorry you had to hear me yell. Oliver, Dylan, don't tell anyone why she was fired, though if she did yell at you in the hall, they may know why. Thank you for telling me. Now get back to class."

Dylan and Oliver walk back to their class. The speaker turns on and he hears his coaches' cracky, tough voice 

"Boys soccer is postponed, girls soccer is inside, girls basketball is canceled, and boys basketball is still on the same day, just later in the day, 8:00 am instead of 6:00. Have a great day." he turns the speaker off

"Well, guess we can still hang out."

Oliver frowns

"Dylan..I-I...actually um..Need to tell you something..."

"What is it?"

"Well..I'll tell you..Later...Like before my game.."

"Ok.."

"Wait. I can tell you one thing now." Oliver's face is blushed

"I-I'm scared.."

"Of what?"

"I'm scared of..Of falling in love. It seems so stupid, but it isn't for me---"

Dylan puts his hand on Oliver's head and starts laughing

"Well, if your scared of it, you have to face it, face to face, there's no point in running, you're never going to get over your fear. Yes, when you love someone there are difficulties they feel, they get over them. Don't be scared Ollie..."

Oliver stares at Dylan dazed by his words

"Did I say something wrong?"

"N-No! T-That was amazing!"
