As I walk into the building, I sigh. Pulling up my pants.
And there he was. With a grey hoodie, but this time, it was covering his face.
It was still slightly dark outside.
How was I supposed to get through this day?
I had first class with him too.
The bell rings, signaling for us to go to homeroom.
I walk to Ms. Williams class.
And sit in my normal seat. Anna was already there.
I had texted Taylor and Anna about yesterday's situation.
And both of them were confused.
Connor walks into the classroom. And doesn't sit at our table.
He sits on the other side of the room.
Anna glances at me.
"That's weird, he always sits here." She says.
I nod slowly.
"Yeah, he's avoiding confrontation." I say.
She looks over at him, and he puts his head down on his desk.
He's never avoided us like this.
"It'll be fine though." She reminds. But to me, it sounded as if she were trying to convince herself.
I shrug.
"I hope so, because this is so weird to me."
The teacher comes in.
"Okay hush guys, I'm gonna take attendance." She says.
I glance at Connor.
He look drained, tired.
Ms.Williams looked up from her computer.
"Connor? Where's Connor?" She asks.
He looks up at her and she chuckles.
He smiles.
"I'm the new kid."
He jokes.
She shakes her head.
"Sorry, it's just that you aren't sitting where you usually do."
So she noticed that too?
I knew it was obvious.
===========2 days later============
This is the 4th day since Connor has detached himself from Me and Anna's lives.
And no matter how bad the situation got, we continued to assure each other that we were "Okay".
And we weren't doing so okay.
Now we're in gym.
He's talking to that same Isiah guy.
His back was facing us.
Like we were being shunned.
Did he hate us or something now?
What did we do to him?
I try to remember what I may have done to him.
But nothing comes to mind.
The gym teacher says something about a fire drill, and we get up.
I look at Connor's back, I watch him leave out in front of us.
Maybe space is good. But the more I convince myself, the more depressed I felt.
This isn't just 'space'. This is Avoidance.
I didn't like it.
Damn. Fuckboys can really fuck up your life in an instant. They could have you in your feeling for days if they wanted to.
