There was silence, only silence between you two, but was this silence even necessary? He couldn't handle the uncertainty, not knowing what to do with you, or even himself. He wanted to know, he wanted to feel that you cared, even if you didn't show it to him, he needed to hear you say it. He didn't want you to leave. Never leave.

-Wait! -His grip on your wrist was so tight to the point you even wondered if it was gonna break. Evander couldn't handle the tears, not anymore. You hurted him, you hurted him so badly, and yet, he wanted you to love him, like he loved you. Why couldn't you?

-Just…Don't leave. Please, I don't want to be alone. -His voice cracked as he looked so desperate. He grabbed you and pulled you closer, not being able to let you go.

-Stay with me, even if it hurts, even if you make me suffer, just…Don't go. -He sobbed on your shoulder as he grasped you tightly. If he could stay like this with you, he would.
