Anthony didn’t mean for any of this to happen. Or at least that’s what he tells himself, maybe he did, he doesn’t know. He doesn’t know anything, he’s only 15.

He does know he misses you, so fucking much. You two are bestfriends in love, and everyone knows it, it’s painfully obvious

But you had a small fight and it wasn’t anything serious but it was a fight. It was a fight about him, he started dating this girl over the summer, Ava.

And when you got back to school you were in his home room but you switched classes. You heard about it from your friend, Inez. Usually any drama she tells you you shrug off and it’s fine, but this one you knew was true

He mainly only did it because at the karate meet up before the summer you were hanging out with Kenny. And he didn’t like it.

But he knows he shouldn’t have done what he did. Especially considering him and Ava meant nothing, and he’s pretty sure Ava is lesbian anyway and just dated him to cover it up. It’s the worst thing he’s ever done

You’re having a Christmas party, well your dad is, and your dad is a helper with the dojo so everyone knows him.

Your dad invited everyone at the dojo plus some other people and Anthony wasn’t really invited. I mean his sister Sam, his dad Daniel, and his mom Amanda were invited. They all kinda assumed he was too even though deep down he knew he wasn’t.

But he showed up.

You almost scoffed at his presence but grabbed his wrist and pulled him to the backyard garden, where it was mostly quiet apart from a few onlookers

“Hey-“ he starts, a nervous smile appearing on his face as he awkwardly scratches the back of his neck
