"Why do you insist on pushing me away, Dylan?" I questioned though his back remained toward me. "Don't tell me you're that stupid," he spat, his words feeling like acid on the surface of my soul. "What...do you mean?" I softly asked trying to hide the hurt in my voice. He didn't answer. "What do you mean?" I asked a bit more aggressive as I roughly grabbed his shoulder and turned him around, but before I knew it, he had me my hands pinned by my waist. "Don't you get it?" He asked, the hardness that once occupies his voice gone and replaced by a trembling, brittle voice. I could see the conflict raging in his eyes as they bore into mine. "I'm a sinking ship and I...I can't drag you down with me," he whispered as his grip on my hands loosened. "That's not your call to make," I softly, yet sternly stated. "I choose how far I walk across this tightrope and if I fall," I whispered taking his hands in mine and giving them a reassuring squeeze, "I know you'll be there to catch me. You always are." *** After dealing with a crushing break up with his long time high school sweetheart, high school senior Matteo Hayes heads to a small town in the middle of What-Are-You-Doing-Here?
