Connor and Evan have been friends since 4th grade, them now being in high school.
♥️ Morning || Connor's bedroom ♥️
Connor's pov
I wake up feeling a dreadful feeling in my stomach, probably because of what I had last night. Zoe barges into my room. I don't really remember what she said but I remember screaming "SCREW YOU!"
I finally got of my bed to get ready to go to school. While getting dressed I saw Evan standing on the sidewalk outside my house. This caused me to hurry up by at least 90%. I grabbed something from the kitchen and put my satchel over my shoulder. I step outside and a huge smile grows on Evan's face. And before I know it he jumps into a big hug that makes it hard to breath.
C = Connor
E = Evan
E - Connor! I missed you..
Evan said this while squeezing me tighter.
C - Me to, me to
Evan finally let go of the hug that seemed to last for forever. I went silent as my face started to grow red as we walked to the school. Evan slowly started to wrap his pinkie around mine. He didn't say anything he just did it. I looked down and this made me smile. I had started to grow feelings for Evan in 7th grade. He was my best, and only friend. But what Evan was doing was strange and I really don't know if he even knew he was doing because for the longest time Evan has liked Zoe Murphy... my sister. But I didn't mide if anything I enjoyed it. But it was going to end because Evan looked up and saw my red face.
E - S-s-sorry, I didn't realise I was doing it
C - It's fine
Evan put his hands in his pockets. I wanted to say so bad that he could keep doing it and that I liked it. But that could ruin everything. 6 almost 7 years of friendship could just disappear. That would leave me and Evan with nowhere to run. Nowhere to go. No one to cry to but ourselves. I go back to 3rd grade before I knew Evan. Miguel. Miguel was my best friend. Ever since we both had to transfer schools everything changed. I could no longer find happiness. It has been 4 years since I had seen his face. I could no longer find happiness. Until Evan brought me happiness. I could never be fully happy until I saw Miguel again but he made my life worth living. Evan saved me.
You always hear teachers saying that only you can save yourself. And that can be true but when your broken and your trying so hard to not let go. You really need someone like Evan to save you. I used to and still am a huge book nerd. I also really like drawing with Evan. Even though Evan barely know how to draw he still likes watching me draw.
I realise that I'm now on the ground. I see a group of my usual bullies come charging towards me. They scream horrible things at me. One of them being crybaby. I put my hands on my face realising that I have been crying this whole time. As I grow weaker I hear Evan scream "Noooooooo!!".
Evan falls to his knees and says "Please don't hurt him"
The shortest one says "Why should we, are you going to cry to?"
Evan's eyes start filling up with tears. I jolt up not wanting them to do anything to him. I punch them down and run towards Evan hugging him. I see the principle walking towards me and the other group of boys. She hand all of them and me and Evan a letter. Me and Evan open ours. Mine says "Dear Mr & Mrs. Murphy, your son has been suspended once again for invoking a fight towards other students." Evan's saying something about him getting involved. I was mad, not about me getting suspended but for Evan getting suspended. He didn't deserve it. But since we were suspended we had a whole week to ourselves, lucky we didn't have to finish the school day but they didn't call our parents to pick us up. And even better there was a sports game tonight that lasts until 8pm. Meaning we had most of the day to ourselves. I knew Evan didn't like lying to his mom but, I convinced him to not tell his mom about him getting suspended. And since we both walk to school we would have to worry about our parents checking to see of were on the bus.
