The albino had been too busy thinking back through memories, including the ones that left him terrified that had his hands shaking ever so slightly, to notice Micah in time. Alver's eyes blinked in surprise as he found himself trapped by the blonde and by instinct Alver tensed and wanted to try and flee, but he just ended up freezing up instead. His slender frame ever so shaking a little as his pale lavender eyes watched the blonde.

Listening to the words, Alver gave a slight sad smile. He did appreciate the words, it had seemed... Miky had forgiven him to some extent to the little event in middle school. But Alver truly believed that none of what Miky said was true. Alver was a problem, a problem that just needed to disappear. His parents didn't do it, but they should have. They payed the price for it. So he took initiative and left his friends before the same happened. He knew Miky understood to some extent... But not like this. He cared too much to let the same happen to Miky. It was fine to be alone. He was fine. It be fine.
