1 am

I haven't slept properly for three days now, and it's making me feel terrible.

It all started after Brian said that thing, I can't stop thinking about him. And it's even harder since we spend every damn minute together. I can't do this anymore.

I keep turning back and forth in the sheets, trying to sleep a little.
But after a few hours, my alarm clock rings, making me jump a little.
I sigh, getting up and shaking for the lack of energy.

I need to go to class. Brian is waiting for me.

After dragging myself slowly to the classroom, I sit next to my friend, who's studying something.

"Good morning... Woah, Roger? It looks like someone has thrown you in  the  middle of the sea and then left you freezing there. Is everything alright? It's the third time I see you like this..." He chuckles slightly.

"I'm fine, can't you see?!" I say in a loud tone, staring at him with red eyes, which are now burning a little.

That makes the whole class turn around. He frowns and looks at me with a worried expression. The last thing I want is to make him worried about me. Then he places a hand on my shoulder.

"Rog, you can tell me, we're friends..."

I look down and I start to feel dizzy.

"I'm just a bit tired you know"
He stares at me with concern and soon I feel his arms around me, then he drags me away for no reason.

"What are you doing...?" I ask in a sleepy tone, placing my head on his chest accidentally.

"Shhh... just close your eyes okay?" He says in a soothing voice, placing me on something soft that I can't recognize. I'm already sleeping, held by Brian.

He's the best friend I could ever wish for.
