Entangled

"wha..what was that?" I asked my voice terribly shaking, my eyes wide with shock
"i..i don't know, please don't leave..dont run away." he sank to his knees as the tears ran down his cheeks. I could've facepalmed myself if i wasnt still recovering from shock. he was a friend, he's stood by me, has never tried to hurt me..at least not on purpose. and now i wanna run away because he isn't so similar to me?

How could i?

i summed up all the courage in me, which wasn't so hard because with every step i became less scared.
"look I'm sorry " i said taking his face in my palms. he looked worse than me and my guilt increased. he kept looking downwards, i looked down too, unsure of what to do .
"hey c'mon look at me" his eyes burned into mine

almost literally.
"you're my friend, we'll figure this out, come what may I'll never leave you."

Not this time.
