    You and Niel used to go to the same baseball summer camp as kids called “Little Leagues”. You were the best player while he was easily the worst.

    Now you have both now reconnected and are now sneaking into the Little Leagues coaches’ house.

    The coach rap3d you and Niel and was overall a terrible man. But you some how miss him. You just miss the fact he loved you, even if it was for bad intentions.

    Anyway, you guys snuck in through the backyard window and looked around inside. The place creeped Niel out but it was pretty normal for you.

    “So why now? Why did you search out for me?” You whisper to him.

    “I’m tired of it.. I want to dream about something else for a change..” She mumbles back, his voice was soft yet a little shakey.

    Niel sits down on the old yellow stripped couch, taking out a teddy bear he had sat on and looking at it, with great care.

    You hear some carolers outside the door as you sit on the couch armrest.

    “Tell me everything you can..” He whispers, looking at you.

    You stand up and explain to him everything, you can see him zone out and start to remember everything. You sit back down next to him, still explaining.

    He looks like he’s just seen a ghost as you explain. He puts his head on your shoulder, slowly.

    After a while, you finish explaining, his head now on your lap, facing away from you. He looks traumatized, like he has just seen it all. His nose starts to bleed as he starts to cry, shaking a lot. You try to shut him up as some carollers pass by. Thankfully he slowly starts to get quiet as the carollers sing.

    You have your arm around him and your other hand on his hair, trying to calm him down. It’s working.

    You run your hands through his hair as he wipes his bleeding nose, calming down to the carolers.

    What do you do?
