————Lynn's POV————
When it was lunch time I was going to ask William to sit with me so I wouldn't be lonely, but he ignored me completely! I tch'd and sat at a table alone, atleast I thought, but then Chase and Gray sat by me.—Well, Chase was sitting on my other side by force, by Gray.
"So, do you like class so far?" Gray asked clearly interested.
"Well, it's kind of scary...! But you are nice." I answered awkwardly.
"Hmph, whatever..." Chase grumbled at my comment.
"Hugs for being friends!" Gray exclaimed getting up and squishing me and Chase in a hug.
I awkwardly sat there stiff, while Chase struggled to get out of it and mumbled stuff like,"Dammit" and "Stupid elf" stuff like that. He finally let out of the hug and I slumped in my seat relieved.
"So you two aren't much of huggers. Huh?" Gray pouted crossing his arms like a little child.
Chase just rolled his eyes, and me, well... I just told him I never got hugs, so it surprised me. Chase seemed surprised at my statement but of course he didn't show it.
"You poor, poor child!" Was how Gray reacted.
He once again held my hands in his and was asking about my childhood. I excused myself to go to the bathroom, and I sat in the corner beneath the sink crying for a bit. And finally when I stopped I heard someone approaching the bathroom whispering. I quickly got up and washed my face, covering my tracks. I didn't want to worry them. I hung out with Gray and Chase throughout the whole day and I learned a lot about them—atleast Gray, Chase wouldn't open up. At all. Though in his defense, I wouldn't either.
I didn't see William throughout the whole day, I wondered what our relationship was though. We were distanced, and never waved or talked. And it was kind of lonely... and when I got home, I was always left alone in my bed, with my thoughts. And eventually, we barely remembered each other—well he barely remembered me. It hurt... I'll admit, it pained watching our friendship crumble and burst at the seams. All I could do was watch.
"Ahem, uh... d-don't cry... it makes me feel—uncomfortable." Grumbled the voice belonging to Chase, snapping me back to reality.
He patted my head awkwardly, as I realized the whole situation. I laughed as I wiped my tears and smiled warmly. I felt stares bare into my back, and heard a few whispers about it, I frowned at the comments and stared down at the ground. I felt the stares being scared away and comments replaced with gulps of nervousness. I looked up as I saw Chase, glaring at the 'antagonists.' I felt a warm fuzzy feeling inside, I couldn't tell what it was though.
"Thank you Chase~!" I exclaimed joyfully, as I embraced the sputtering elf.
He was wide-eyed but his eyes softened as he hugged back.
"Hmph, don't mention it. I just felt uncomfortable seeing you in tears." He grumbled stubbornly.
"Alright, Chase." I answered with a hint of sarcasm.
He rolled his eyes, and scoffed while walking away, though I saw him look back to check on me befor walking away completely.
————William's POV————
I feel like I'm forgetting someone important. I was lost in thought, about this feeling in my gut. I felt like I was—losing somebody important. But... life was moving on so, I wasn't too worried about it. I started getting closer to Abigail, my first friend. And now, girlfriend. But I feel like I am... missing something. it bothers me and it was annoying.
