I could barely keep up with them. Harry was on the track team, and Greg along with him, so they automatically had the advantage when it came to running. But running in the woods makes you want to just stop look back at all the green blurs you passed, even if it all just looks the same. They were both so far ahead, I could only see the red outline of Harry's hair and the light blue accents of his track shoes. But really, what was Greg doing?

I knew Harry couldn't be that far behind me. I kept looking back and almost hitting a bunch of trees, but I didn't want to admit that I was stalking them. No matter how far I'm going to run, how hard I could get punched if Harry gets a hold of me, or if I just completely lose myself in these woods and never find my home, I will never admit that I was stalking them. I'll admit, Harry is my best friend and I don't want some girl to just take that away.
So what? I'm jealous he's giving her all the attention, and they're not even dating. It's supposed to be Bros before Hoes. (Katie's not a hoe, I will say that) He's supposed to be my best friend even if he has a girlfriend, which he doesn't. He's barely even talking to me anymore.
I looked back one more time right before I was tackled to the ground.
Damn it...

"Tell me what you were doing. Were you stalking us? Just tell me or it'll be a lot worse Greg." I demanded
Greg didn't even look up, but that might've been because I was pinning his head into the dirt. I forcefully turned him around to face me.
"I don't want to fight you," Greg admitted wiping the mud and dirt off his nose
"I don't either. But I'm going to have to if don't tell me what the hell is going on with you!" I shouted
I heard Katie's footsteps finally catching up.
He was quiet. His breathing was hitched, probably from the pain, but he was just too quiet.
"I d- I can't tell you. I just can't" Greg finally managed to say.
I stared at him.
Unbelievable.
"Dude, just tell me. Why'd you follow me? You've been acting so weird lately. Are you on something?"
"Yeah Harry, I'm on tons of drugs and I'm having WAY too much sex every night." Greg retaliated sarcastically while rolling his eyes
"Ha ha ha, I'm serious."
Katie stepped up and looked at Greg, a bit weirded out. She looked at me, then at him again, back and forth between the two of us as we all remained silent. She started backing up, and looked around her. Then all of a sudden, she just started running. Running and screaming for help.
WHAT THE HELL???
