I got into a big fight with Riton today. I told him about the letter and how I felt about the whole situation. He got upset at me thinking that I was leaving him like the rest.

We didn't communicate with each other for the remainder of the day. This worried me because I was his only friend. Riton finds it hard to let people in. He shuts out everyone around him.

......

I'm bored. I'm usually with Riton after school. We head to our secret hideout and do normal boy things (whatever that means). Do you think he might be there right now? Maybe....

He was there at the hideout. He tried to leave but I stopped him....it felt awkward between us. He felt enigmatic, distant, as if he didn't know me...

...it hurt.

"Why?" I asked him. He just stared at me then left. It confused me, here was the person who was supposedly my best friend, distancing himself from me. I hated the feeling. It was as if...I went back in time.

When I first met Riton he was cold and closed off. When he first came to school no one really conversed with him. Was it because he was the only one in his family that had not faced the tragedy of the suicide bridge? We eventually talked though. He was really nice and trusting, the type of guy that would never stab you in the back. He was loyal. He said something that always stuck with me when I first asked him to be friends.

"I don't trust that easily. So when I say I trust you, don't make me regret it."

Those were his words. He always seemed to do that; say heartbreaking things, things that would make you think. It's late. I should sleep.

I can't sleep. I had a dream. Riton was there. So was I. The bridge was also there...I was on the bridge. Riton was a only a few steps away from the bridge. His eyes weren't there just his mouth. He said something but I couldn't make it out. I jumped off. All I heard were whispers...nothing else. Weird, isn't it.

I should sleep. I have school tomorrow.

I hope Riton and I will work things out.
