Michael: hey you awake?? i need to talk... please come outside.
As I read over the text, I felt my heart drop down to my stomach. It was 3 in the morning and Michael was waiting for me outside my house… I hadn’t spoken to him since he shut me out and now he felt like talking? Emotions swept over me as I grabbed Max’s flannel off my desk chair and headed out of my room. I felt nauseous as I made my way down the stairs and towards the door. But aside from it all, I was pissed.

Michael leaned up against the passenger side of his truck as I made my way down the driveway.
“Hey.” He smirked.
“Don’t ‘hey’ me,” I said, mimicking him. “You own me an explanation.”
“Yea…okay.” He said, smile dropping. “Come with me and-“
“I’m not going anywhere with you.” I stated crossing my arms over my chest.
“Scout please-“
“You can tell me whatever it is you have to say now… or you can get the fuck out of here and never talk to me again.”
Michael kept his focus on the ground while I waited. The longer he stayed silent, the more I felt my heart break.
“Fine…”I said. I felt my voice break. “Don’t---I never want to see you again.”
I turned and made my way up the driveway, letting the tears stream down my face. Although I hadn’t really known Michael long, I felt like I just lost my best friend…again.
“Are you afraid of being alone?” I heard him call behind me.
“What?” I turned to face him.
“Are you afraid of being alone…” he paused, lifting his head and his eyes made contact with mine. “Cause I am, I’m lost with out you…”
