I have NO idea how people are still reading this now. I'll gonna be honest

I completely forgot I had this account.

I've been doing all my tests recently, and it just slipped off my mind. I am SO SORRY. Y'all are very dedicated to be reading now. So thank you for 11k. I also placed some tree bros for you patient people.

I don't need you to sell me on reasons to want you

"Yeah because now I really don't think anyone wants you. Sorry..." Zoe knew her statement was mean but she felt validation to say that. He took a lot from her and her family here.

I don't need you to search for the proof that I should
You don't have to convince me
You don't have to be scared you're not enough
'Cause what we've got going is good

"Not at all" muttered Evan. "Nothing is good or will be..."

I don't need more reminders of all that's been broken
I don't need you to fix what I'd rather forget
Clear the slate and start over
Try to quiet the noises in your head
We can't compete with all that
So what if it's us?
What if it's us
And only us

"I'd be miserable... I already am" Evan kept muttered to himself under the music. Connor may have felt bad however, he couldn't back down

And what came before won't count anymore or matter?
Can we try that?
What if it's you
And what if it's me
And what if that's all that we need it to be
And the rest of the world falls away?
What do you say?
I never thought there'd be someone like you who would want me

"Well, now nobody wants me. I messed up. Why did I do this, Why would I do this?" Those around him did not help.

Well
So I...

Evan continued to cry. And nobody came. Why?

He was the one who chose to do some bad things. And he only took. But no one tried.

But Connor broke he turned to Evan and sat in front of him. "Hey, I uh... can you look at me?" Evan lifted his head a bit to look at Conner. "That's good. Can I have your hand?" Evan didn't respond.

"Can I have your hand?" He asked again. Slowly his hand went out. Connor softly grabbed and held it between his hands. "Can you count in eights with me? One-" Evan muttered the numbers with the boy and slowly, his voice reached a more natural volume.

"See, I knew you could do it" Connor told Evan.

Just maybe he could
