Muted || Corbyn Besson

[12]the end?

Corbyn wanted to go to the dance with me? I was just deciding on to go alone, since Corbyn always had beautiful girls around him.

U: c-corbyn, what is this?
C: I uh can explain.

The boy gotten off of Corbyn.

C: I wanted to tell you but I was scared. You're too good for me so I didn't want to tell you.
U: Corbyn, i-i would love to go.
C: wait what?
U: jeez, open your ears buddy, I said yes!

Everybody started laughing.

C: so you want to go to the dance with ME?
U: I'm pretty sure any girl would want to go to prom with you.
C: hah I guess. Anybody would want to go-
U: you know that's a lie Corbyn.
C: I'm not gonna push it.

He says backing away. We decided to actually work out for 2 more hours and then we wanted to go get some milkshakes. Hey, stop judging we earned it.

Jo: how does it feel dating a star?
U: woah I'm not dating him. And plus we're just going as friends.
Jo: yeesh, you didn't have to put my man in the friend zone.
U: stop talking Hoenah.
Jo: period much. *mumbles*
U: I swear I will kill you with my thumb.
Jo: retreat boys!
U: you can never run away from your mother Jonah!!

It was really fun hanging out with my friends. They were the only friends I've ever had. We had to go back home or Corbyn's mom is going to be mad. I decided to meet his mom. Since he dragged me to his front step.

We walked into a beautiful tidy home.

C: hey mom, sorry we're late.
C/M: we're?
C: ah right, mom this is Evelyn my best friend. Eva, this is my mom.
U: nice to meet you, pleasure to be in your home.
C/M: oh honey, you don't have to act like that! To be honest, Corbyn never brings a girl home, you know if he kept this up I would think he's gay.
U: oh we're not dating.
C/M: hm seemed like it. Well do you want to stay?
U: sure!
C/M: do I need to contact your parents?
U: uh no it's fine.
C/M: okay well I won't bother you guys. Have fun!

Corbyn immediately drags me to his room and sits me on the bed.

C: ok Eva, I wanted to ask you something.
U: sure.
C: were you serious about us going to the dance as friends?
U: Jonah can't shut his mouth. Um but yeah.
C: w-why?
U: it would be better for both of us.
C: I guess.

Corbyn plops onto the bed and stares at his ceiling. I lay beside him and look up too in silence.

U: Corbyn, can I ask you something?
C: yeah.
U: what was it like with your last girlfriend?
C: ah she was genuinely funny, intelligent, she was pretty cool. But we ended things since I found out she cheated on me with multiple guys. Jonah victimized it. He told me that my ex was flirting with him. So I broke things off and she still loves me. I stopped loving her after I met the greatest friend I'll ever have.
U: who was it?
C: you. You made me forget about the past and to live life.
U: you don't know how much you actually mean to me don't you?
C: I guess not. *chuckles*
U: you're the only person I've ever had a blown out conversation with. I've never talked to anyone else. Just you.
C: I'm glad it's me.

We face each other, inches apart. His dull blue eyes stare into my icy blue eyes.

U: Corbyn, I have to go.
C: why?
U: I'm sorry, but I'm leaving to a insane asylum.
C: what why?!
U: my doctor told me that I should get help with my problem. And I leave in 2 days. Monday will be my last day.
C: n-no! You can't just leave!
U: I have to or they'll capture me and take me far away. So this is the thing that'll help me.
C: how long are you going to be gone?
U: 2 years...
C: what?! You can't leave me forever Evelyn! No, you can't leave.
U: Corbyn. I can't control it.

A tear slowly went down my cheek. I bit my lip to make the pain stop. I huddle into Corbyn's chest to feel his heart racing.

He slowly breathes onto my neck with tears streaming down his face. We feel asleep peacefully.
