Dear Diary,

Going to school the next day was terrible. I felt like Eli was going to think it was all my fault that he got in trouble, but however he didn't mention anything about it when we went up to present; He just went up with me, said all he needed to say and that was all that happened. He didn't say anything to anyone, just did what he needed to do in school and that was it. He didn't even talk to Adonny once, in fact he just kept glaring at Adonny every few minutes.

Eli was probably deep in thought about how he was going to get Adonny back if he said anything about him being bi.

I felt like I should've asked him about what happened when I left, but I didn't. I just left class and hung out with Renee all lunch.

"How did the project you worked on with Eli come out?" Renee questioned at lunch.

"It went well, pretty sure we nailed it."

"That's great Brand!" Renee exclaimed making me give a small grin in return.

"Did Eli do anything mean to you in the process?" She added on.

"Nah, he didn't really talk to much, and when he did it was kinda just small talk to break the ice ya' know."

"Well that's good I guess. Do you know why Eli's been ignoring everyone today. He's even sitting alone." Renee gestured over to Eli, whom in fact was sitting alone.

I started thinking if I should tell Renee what happened or just pretend that I had no clue. Well it was a secret right? That's why I chose to keep my mouth shut.

"No, I don't. He's probably in a bad mood or something."

Renee peered over at him, then turned back with a concerned look on her face. 

"Well he doesn't look upset, he looks sad." She spoke sounding unsure of what his facial expression gave off.

"I guess." I spoke trying to sound uninterested. 

"We should go see what's wrong." Renee suggested.

"No, we shouldn't. In fact we should just sit here and mind our own business." I said sounding a harsh.

Renee looked at me like I was insane. She looked back at him once more before getting up from the table and walking over to me. She successfully pulled my arm harshly to peel me from the table seat and dragged me over to the table Eli was sitting at. 

"Hi." Renee grinned sitting down pulling me down next to her. 

"...Hello?" Eli said sounding confused on why she came to talk to him.

"Why do you look so glum, you're like sulking." She said sounding like a snobby white girl, when she was Asian.

Eli looked a bit taken back by how harsh Renee sounded before responding with a classic 'I'm Fine' answer. I rolled my eyes at his response because I knew that he was speaking bullcrap. He looked over at me scanning me to see if I would say anything, which I didn't.

"Can you leave me alone, I'm alone for a reason." Eli snapped at Renee for no reason. 

Renee looked at him in surpirse with her eyes becoming big. She muttered something under her breath that sounded like 'bitch' before getting up and dragging me off with her.
