(Jonathans P.O.V)
"Never..." I wake up the next day...Evan's not here...A frown spreads across my face. I get dressed, grab my suitcase and things then head out the door where Evan is waiting in the car...I go over to him and get in the passenger seat. "How long have you been here for...?" I can see his tired expression..."Ev...?" He sighs "I woke up and went out...I'm fine though..." I nod slowly "You didn't drink did you...?" He shakes his head "No. I...Just went to a friends house..." I nod "You...Look tired..." He just shrugs and starts driving to the airport.
(Evan's P.O.V)
I drop Jonathan off at the airport, I then watch him as he gets on the plane...I didn't even stop him...I can't stop him...My body feels weak...I get back in the car and drive home where everyone is waiting on the couch for me. "Is Jonathan gone then?" Tyler asks. I nod "Yeah..." Smitty pokes me "You okay?" I look down trying to hide my face "I'm fine...I'm just tired..." Ryan lifts my head up "You're slouching slightly while holding you're stomach...You realize this right?" I try to stand up straight but it hurts..."Evan, what he means is that you look like you're in a lot of pain..." I finally force myself to stand up straight wincing while I do so..."I'm...Fine..." Smitty pokes me again "Ev...Tell the truth..." I sigh "I...Fine...I went out last night and some people beat me up...I'm fine though...Stop worrying about me..." Tyler hugs me making me wince more..."You're going to be fine...We just need to fix you up is all..." Tyler nods...His positive attitude is...Comforting...I nod too "Yeah..." Ryan looks at me "Do you need a bandage...? Where's the first aid kit...?" Luke laughs "He's just bruised. It's not like they stabbed him or anything." I nod slowly "Where'd they hit you Ev...?" Smitty asks "My stomach mainly..."
(Smitty's P.O.V)
I go to lift up Evan's top so we can put a bandage around the wound but he pulls it down quickly..."P-please don't...I just need to rest..." Ryan sighs with the first aid kit already in hand "But...You're hurt and...I already have the stuff..." I sigh "I'm...Fine...I just need some rest...Okay...?" We all nod and I watch him go to his room half limping..."He'll be fine...He can take care of himself..." Tyler tries to reassure us. I know he can take care of himself but he isn't at the minute...He needs someone like Jonathan the help him right now...
(Ryan's P.O.V)
I can see the sadness in everyone's faces..."How about we play some games? Like battleblox or...Maybe we could watch a movie...?" We all agree on a movie to watch but no one really watches it...We're all focused on Evan...We shouldn't be though...Fuck...Everyone looks depressed...I turn the movie off..."There's no point watching a movie if no one watches it, I just want everyone to be happy yet we're all too busy dwelling on Evan that we've lost all of our happiness. When you get your lives together come speak to me." I go to my room.
(Tyler's P.O.V)
Smitty and I watch Ryan walk off then Luke follow him...I sigh "He's right..." I look at Smitty who's already looking at me. He lays on top of me and kisses me...I guess this is him showing he's happy or whatever but not right now...I push him off me gently. He goes to his room leaving me alone...Fucking great...
(Luke's P.O.V)
"Ryan...!" I follow Ryan to his room and look at him from the doorway..."What?" I sigh "We're trying to be happy it's just hard with everything that's happened between our friends..." Ryan nods "I know! I just...I wish everyone would try harder..." I walk over to him and hug him "I will...I'm sorry..." Ryan wraps his arms around me I can hear him faintly crying..."Ryan...? Are you crying...?" He wipes his eyes "I...N-no!" I sigh "Truth...Please..." He sighs too "Y-yeah...I don't have to explain why though...!" I nod "Fine..."
(Smitty's P.O.V)
I sit on my bed and hold my head. My feelings are all over the place...I...Like Evan but my feelings for Tyler are...Growing...He's just pushing me away though just like Scotty did...I tear up..."S-Smitty...?" I wipe my eyes and turn towards Tyler "What?" I ask. "I'm...Sorry...I know I'm a little pushy...But...That's because...I still don't really know if I like boys fully or not and because It just...I...Don't know if I love you properly..." I go and hug him "I...Understand...If you had just told me I would have understood though..." He nods "I-i was scared..."
(Jonathan's P.O.V)
I text Evan when I get home 'Hey, I'm home. How's everything going?' I get no response for a few minutes but he soon types back 'Good. Everything's fine, how about you?" I feel sadness...Pain...Lonely...'I'm fine.' He doesn't respond after that...I text Luke 'Everything okay with Ev?' I get a reply instantly 'He's in a bit of pain but should be fine...Why?' I sigh and punch the wall. 'He lied to me, that's all...' I answer back. I then text Evan again 'You lied to me...' He keeps lying to me...About his thoughts and feelings...But so do I...But one day...I will find out...Everything...
