Zak POV

Tears clouded my eyes, causing my vision to blur.

I collapsed behind a tree and began to sob.

I tried to stop myself from crying but I couldn't.

I took a shakeup breath.

I need to clam down.

What am I even crying about?

So much for being 'basically heartless'.

I'm being a baby.

I wanted to stop acting like such a wimp.

And yet I let out another sob.

Then I heard footsteps.

Oh god.

I rushed to wipe away my tears and control my breathing, then I turned to see who it was.

It was Darryl.

As soon as he saw my face a look of concern came over his face.

I guess I didn't do a very good job of acting okay.

He walked over to me, "Are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine. Really happy actually." I said in the most convincing voice I could.

He searched my eyes, probably looking for any sigh that I was lying.

But I'm really good at hiding my feelings. "It looks like you were crying." He said.

"I might have cried a bit." I said, then added, "Happy tears."

A seemed relieved but still asked, "Why'd you run off?"

"I needed some time alone." I said.

He smiled, "Okay come on, let's join the others."

Sorry it's short :(
