I wasn't even out of my car yet and I broke down. We made eye contact; for me it was painful. No wave. No nod. No smiles. From either of us. It hurt me because now I realize I overreacted, I should've stayed more calm when I talked to you. I shouldn't have let it get to me. Why did this upset me so much? I saw you again in the locker room. I know you saw me too. Again; nothing. No smile. No wave. From either of us. You may not know but the simple and enthusiastic "Hi Bree!" with a warm smile after, well that really brightens my day. I tried talking to you, but got no response. Maybe your phone was dead? Or maybe you got it taken away in class? Or maybe I ruined things. Maybe I shouldn't have even responded in the first place. Responded in the morning and said I was just asleep. Maybe all these thoughts running circles in my head are useless; but if I know one thing for sure it's that I don't want something this stupid to come between us. And if I know anything else, it's that I was stupid and I'm sorry.

Stupid arguments. If they can even be called that.

Maybe you'll see this maybe you won't. Maybe you'll say something maybe you won't. Maybe we'll be okay maybe we won't. But I hope to God I didn't **** things up too bad.
