„You can trust me, Zeke, we are friends, remember?“
The older boy pulled his face. „What are you talking about? We are friends, just because we use to hang out now and then? Wake up, Casey.“
„Why are you like that?“ Casey looked hurt. „I can see that you have a problem, and I thought that it might be helpful when you talk about it. Sometimes I have the feeling you are much more alone than I am. Despite all this 'I am the coolest boy from school because I don't care anything about rules' shit.“
„Dream on! At least I am not the one who fools himself. Everyone is alone in this world. The earlier you accept this, the easier it is. You only waste your time when you put too many feelings into a relationship.“
„Fine.“ Casey jumped up, spilling some of his soda over the table. „Good to know what you think about our friendship.“ He grabbed for his backpack, ready to leave Zeke's garage. Tears were burning in his eyes. When Zeke had invited him over for a movie some weeks ago, he hadn't been sure what to think about it at first. They hadn't much in common, and before the alien incident at school, they had barely talked. But soon enough he had started to enjoy to hang around with Zeke; and he had been sure, that Zeke felt the same familiarity. But apparently he had been wrong. And this did hurt so much more than expected.
„Hey, wait.“ Zeke grabbed for his arm to stop him, but Casey shook him off. „I guess it's all said,“ he huffed.
Zeke closed his eyes for a split of a second. „Sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you. It's just...“
„It's what? You've just told me that our friendship, or whatever it was, means nothing to you.“
„It's not like that.“ Zeke shook his head and sighed. „I always enjoys it to spend some time together with you. Watch a movie, talk about books or music, having a road trip. But friendship for you means more, nearness and trust. You expect me to talk about my problems, but this isn't so easy. Not for me. Too much closeness freaks me out. I am used to it to deal with all my shit alone. No one was ever there me when I needed help. And you, caring for me as you do, that's just too much.“
Slowly he put his backpack down again. „I am not like the others, Zeke,“ he said. „I don't want to be your buddy during good times; as much as I like it. But you can't expect that I close my eyes while I see that you are unhappy. If I were able to do this, you would be right, and our friendship wouldn't mean anything at all.“
A slight smile sneaked on Zeke's lips. „Yeah, you might be right; you are not like the others. But you can't help me, believe me, these are my problems. Though I admit, it wasn't fair to vent my wrath on you. Sorry for that."
Casey dropped down on the old couch again. „I don't know if I can help you, but at least I can listen,“ he said. "That's what friends do, you know."
„Stubborn shit.“ Smirking Zeke shook his head. „You can be a real pain in the ass, you know that?
It is because of my father. Got his call this morning. Ended with a big fight, as ever. Really, I don't know why this can still bother me. It's always the same since I can remember, but...“
