Diane's pov

As we both walked out of the auditorium, it was a relieving feeling for me- from the random stares and gazes. It felt like a weight that was suddenly lifted from my chest-many weights. many.

"Can't you slam the brakes for a second?!" I ask, noticing the height difference and walking distance, I almost stumbled, which made me a bit frustrated but not much. We stood beside an empty classroom in which the door was closed and locked, the whole school was basically empty since they were all in the auditorium.

Travis exhales a breath, slumping against the wall roughly, the breath that escaped his lips some how managed to blow a piece of hair out of his face.

I noticed the questioning look on his face as his 'brows scrunched together and he slid down to the floor quickly, unexpectedly startling me a bit. What is going on? I noticed the emotion in his eyes left, once a lively and flourished green, now dull and clouded over. He must've noticed my worried stare as he turned his face away from my gaze, then shortly looked back at me, with a small smile. The kind of smile that displays the few seconds before a complete break down. I know because I saw it on my face all the time.

What is happening with Travis now? Wait, what if he's having some weird condition with his medication? Did he take his medication? Wait don't worry yet Diane you don't even know the problem yet! What do I ask him? Uh- Uhhhh.....UHM, I swallowed a lump, "Are you alright? Do you need help?" OF COURSE HE DOES DUMMY! Diane this is not the time to implode, Travis needs you. "I just needed to get away from so many people. I don't want to talk about it in his school.....I just-" "It's fine" I bend down and hug him. "I'm here" I whisper to him.

"I'm sorry I dragged you out like that" (*cough* *hAcK*)

"It's fine......so did you get any Valentines yet?" I sit down against the brick wall beside him, changing the subject. "A few" he slightly smiles, "You?" he asks. "That question is invalid a little....I mean school just started. I probably won't get any." I shove my hands in my pocket, feeling a paper in my right pocket, weird I didn't have anything in my pockets?

"A little invalid?"he asks, "Never mind!" I bark. "....What did you want to talk about?" I ask again.


"Here, geez" he hands me something from his book bag, and reaches it to me, ".....??" I took it and looked at it. 

An astronomy book? I smiled, it's about the night sky, and even has a sky map in it! "I love it. How'd you know?" "Well it's kinda obvious" he chuckles.
