°×°

Nathaniel slowly hugs his bestfriend back.

Nathaniel Federico

No-no, I'm sorry, I'm sorry for yelling at you like that, that was wrong of me.

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

Yeah, totally wrong of you...but I understand how you must have felt.

Nathaniel Federico

I'm sorry.

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

It's okay

Nathaniel Federico

Y-you are right Ken...maybe I really was overreacting...but I'm scared.

Nathaniel Federico

I'm scared I have liked him a little too much to get over him this quickly.

Nathaniel Federico

I don't know how to react if I go back to school to face him again. I really might burst into tears right in front of him.

Kendra stops hugging Niel as she looks at him.

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

Why don't you give him a chance then?

Nathaniel Federico

Ken... I can't

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

I think you can, you are just scared like you said.

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

That guy obviously loves...well like you bestie.

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

I don't think I ever missed a moment to tell you how he had been finding means to reach you all through the week.

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

He never for once give up on you, that's not something someone who was just toying with you will do Niel.

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

And you know so well the dating app you both met is not a place you just choose to match with someone you know, it's a random thing, and you've never really showed him your face for him to know who you are.

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

I get he was the reason your teammates and coursemates find ways to make fun at you, but you knew he never really cared about that, I don't think he ever smiles or talked or react to any of what they did.

Nathaniel Federico

*mutters* That's even more reasons why I dislike him, he shows he was not affected by it at all.

Nathaniel Federico

I feel like I'm the only one overreacting at their words.

Nathaniel Federico

*sighs* Maybe I really was overreacting.

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

It's okay to feel this way dear, it's just, you shouldn't allow this to ruin what you both share, I know you could feel the connection between the both of you Niel because as for me, I could feel it, I could see it.

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

You were happy

Nathaniel Federico

I was

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

I mean very, very happy talking to him.

Nathaniel Federico

I know

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

Then why did you want to let go of that just for something you can actually just choose not to care about.

Nathaniel Federico

... *groaned softly* What should I do Ken...?

Nathaniel Federico

You are right, I really like him. Even knowing who he was doesn't change that. I must be really crazy because it only makes me fall for him even more.

Nathaniel Federico

I want him, I want him so much.

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

...

Nathaniel Federico

*pouts* What if he doesn't want me again after trying all week.

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

You know what, let's go somewhere. I will pack your bag for you

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

*stands up going through Nathaniel's closet*

Nathaniel Federico

*also stands up* Where are we going?
