A majority of the chapter is in text, sorry :/
William
March finally arrived. The third quarter was almost over, so I was overwhelmed with all the work being thrown at me last minute.
My grades were exceptionally well, mainly just B's and an A in P.E. School was the last thing on my mind though.
Lately, I've just been lonely. I feel awful and I can't stop thinking about Anthony. What he did was cold hearted and awful, but I still really like him. I liked his care and sweetness at the beginning, and it ended horribly.
But apart of me still misses him, even though we were only in a relationship for not even a month and a half.
I've been trying to not push everyone away. I text Nicholas a few times a day, just to make sure he's okay. He's always as happy as could be, but I know he's just trying to be strong and hide his emotion.(fricking Aquarius)
I sit at the lunch table with my friends, I talk with my family, I try to eat whenever my head hurts or I felt weak, I take showers, I remember to take care of myself like Nick told me to do.
You should check on him and make sure he's doing the same. He may have eaten a shit ton of potatoes the other day, but he maybe hasn't eaten since.
I grab my phone, quickly texting him.
Me- Hey. Sorry to bother u... But r u doing alright? R u eating and drinking and showering... Taking care of ur self? I know u r going thru a rough time. I just want to make sure u r ok.
Nicholas was quick to reply, which made me smile.
Nick- Hey, I'm doing well, I guess. Not the best, not the worst. I'm still taking care of myself, though. Thank you for checking on me :) How are you doing? Everything alright with you? Are you eating, drinking, showering, doing all that?
I realized how proper he texted. Not text talk but with, proper sentences, commas... I liked it.
Me- Is there anything I can do to make u feel better? I don't want u to be "not the worst and not the best"...
Nick- There's nothing really anyone can do. I don't even know what to do when everything starts hitting me. I just try to stay positive and take care of myself. Thank you though. You never answered my questions lol.
Maybe I don't want to answer the question, Nicholas.
Me- Oh... Well... I'm here for you if you need to be cheered up. And ig I have.
Nick- Thank you. And you guess? That doesn't seem convincing. Are you eating? Remember what happened last time...
I gulp, my thumbs hovering over the keyboard. Do I lie? I feel like Nick can tell whenever I lied...
Me- You're very much welcome :)
Nick- Stop avoiding the question lmao
Me- eh... I maybe have forgotten to eat a few meals over the past few days... I'm ok tho
Nicholas didn't instantly reply again, so I bet he either is tired of me or is typing a long ass paragraph scolding me.
My phone dinged a few minutes later, so I assumed it was the second option.
Nick- Will, you need to eat. I don't care if you eat 3 whole meals, 5 small meals, snack all day and eat dinner, whatever! You need to remember to eat and to listen to your body when you're hungry. And if you don't feel hungry but you know you haven't eaten much today, eat something.
