"I..."
"I just saw the..."
"Alex..."
"It's not your—"
"H-He came to me."
"..."
"He came to my dorm and—"
"I was just so mad. I wanted him to feel so much pain, like the pain I felt—but part of me..."
"..."
"But part of you still loved him?"
"I..."
"I still do."
"I love him so much."
"I shouldn't but I do."
"I can't stop thinking about it. If I'd just told him to stay..."
"Stop Alex. It wasn't your fault."
"But it was! He was right there, apologizing for everything and I just let him walk away! He's gone because I didn't try to stop him. I'm to blame!"
"He's gone because he decided to leave. It was his decision, not yours."
"You should have heard the things he said..."
"It was so different..."
"...it was like the old him, before Erin died."
"God..."
"..."
"Does anyone know?"
"Know what?"
"That you talked to him before.."
"Oh..no. No I-I didn't. His parents have been trying to contact me but I just—just c-couldn't answer. I can't face them. I can't."
"They deserve to know."
"How am I suppose to tell them I'm the reason their last kid is dead, that I had the chance to stop him but was too caught up in myself to realize it?"
"They love you Alex. They'll understand."
"How would you know if they did?"
"How can someone not?"
"..."
I-I didn't mean—"
"I'm gonna go."
"I need...time."
"I understand..but if you need anyone to talk to, you know who to call. I'm always here—"
"Goodbye Stranger."
- end of phone call -
"Fuck me dude..."
"..."
"..."
"Hey man, I'm going to get the pizza. Cam and Damon are setting up some Apex right now if you wanna join."
"Yeah...I'll be there in a minute."
"Everything ok?"
"Don't worry about it man, it's just..."
"Alex?"
"..."
"Yeah."
"What happened? You guys ok?"
"We're fine—friends still, she just..isn't having a good day."
"I'm sorry dude."
"..."
"I know what'll cheer you up."
"What?"
"Apex and Pizza."
"And b—"
"I'm getting bread sticks and Dr. Pepper too."
"You know me so well."
"No shit Sherlock."
"I SWEAR TO GOD DAMON. IF YOU DON'T QUIT THROWING—"
"You might wanna go down there before they stab each other."
"—MY FIST UP YOUR ASS."
"IM SURE YOU'D LIKE THAT, WOULDN'T YOU?"
