“Please Nick, don’t go….i really want us to be together, you’re my best friend.” “I’m sorry Court, but I must do this, this new group its so important to me, please understand.” I must’ve been stupid to believe that Nick actually wanted to stay in touch, and still be my best friend. But that night on the phone, I was too busy being all emotional…believe me, getting emotions in the way, you cant think too clearly. After Nick left, I started not believing in things, school, friendships, even dating became like some sort of commodity with me. That was seven years ago, I’ve developed this sort of shell over me. Not even my best friends can help me out. I guess after Nick left, I just stopped caring.
