As I walked into Dylan's & James' house, I grabbed a water from the kitchen before going to sit with Dylan on the couch. I waved at James who walked through the living room and heading outside. Dylan sat next to me and we put in the movie. We laughed and made small jokes here and there but I couldn't get myself to enjoy it fully. Dylan paused the movie and said, "Alright, what is wrong?
