"Have you ever been in love?"
I didn't know what to say to that. My skin heated with an embarrassed, uncomfortable blush that even attacked my skull.
I should've been more prepared for the question, I guess. Still, it felt like a punch in the gut.
Who says I'm not, is what I wanted to say-it's the worse thing I could possibly say. The worst thing to admit to myself now.

He hadn't been prepared for the past year.
In the beginning, he only saw it as his first and last year of freedom.
He dropped out of honors classes and quit the track team to focus on more academic studies and getting into college.
A girl hadn't been in his plans.
Heartbreak hadn't either.
But it happened anyway because life could be a bitch like that.
And now he had to start college and a new life with the pain and memories burning in the back of his head and chest for however long it took to be okay after a heart had been broken.
He'd been denying the one thing everyone's been throwing at him; 'college will change you'.
And now he's seeing that there was a chance he would change. But it wouldn't be because of college.
