The Ball

There Pete was crying on his bed. As soon as he called me, I headed straight for his room. “Pete what’s wrong?â€?

“I miss him.â€?

I knew whom he was talking about at the moment. I knew Pete loved Scott; even if he would never admit it. “Pete it will be ok you’ll see him over the summer.â€?
They had decided to take a break because of going to school. I walked over to comfort him and to let him know that Scott missed him as well. Later that night I got online and sent Scott a message.

Later that night he let me know that he would be there for the ball.
