Terrance, Jacob, and Arthur each made sure to be with Alex as he moved to and from each of his classes. Thought Arthur wasn’t much help, Terrance and Jacob both tried to cheer up Alexander as they walked out to the courtyard for lunch. [color=lightblue]“Helene texted me last class, about the dish you made for Gigi. She thinks Gigi really likes it!”[/color] But surprisingly it didn’t seem to phase Alexander, as he kept walking with a straight face. He had a similar look to his face as Arthur’s normal resting face. Thought significantly less angry, and way more sad. Alexander kept walking out to their normal spot at the fountain, not realizing he was leaving his other three friends in the dust with each step. [color=teal]“Even mentioning Gigi didn’t seem to cheer him up… he must be really sad.”[/color] Jacob rubbed the back of his head looking at the ground. Jacob clenched his fist slightly, huffing. [color=teal]“Man, fuck his parents.”[/color] [color=lightblue]“Speaking of Gigi- you and Alyssa.”[/color] Terrance crossed his arms, his eyes targeting the dirty blond. It seemed that the same fight that occurred between Alyssa and Helene was about to be repeated in the spirit of Terrance and Jacob. But before anything else could be done, Arthur stepped up, placing a strong hand on both their shoulders. [color=dodgerblue]“Now is no the time. Alex can’t see you two fighting.”[/color] For once, Arthur was right in the affairs of Alexander’s emotions and Terrance just naturally shook his head as always. [color=lightblue]“Don’t think you’re off the hook. You are walking into dangerous territory continuing relations with that girl.”[/color] Terrance turned his back on his friends, and moved to join Alexander on the fountain. Alexander was hunched over. His elbows on his knees, and his chin in his hands. He seemed to be staring off in the distance at something, but when Terrance turned his head, he didn’t see anything. [color=lightblue]“So! Alex! What’s for lunch today? You always seem to trump whatever we bring.”[/color] But Alexander didn’t react. Usually he would whip out some Tupperware container and flash to his friends the wonderful meal his “mom” made the night before. Though his friends all knew it was just a façade he was using to cope with them being absent from his life for so long now. August was always a rough month for Alexander. But in his current state, Alexander didn’t move. He didn’t sit up, jump up, or begin rambling as was in his nature. He just stared off in the distance. Thinking of his lunch, he didn’t seem phased at the fact that he had no idea where his gift for Gigi was. That technically was also his lunch for the day. He had been planning on romantically surprising her and sharing a sweet lunchtime meal together. But at this point, it seemed Alexander didn’t care. In this state, Alexander was realizing that all attempts he made on impressing Gigi were all in vein. She didn’t like him, he knew that. And she would never like him! He knew that as well… Perhaps his parents had sucked up so much love from the world, that Alexander would never be able to find someone to love him. [color=teal]“Alexander is a puzzle…”[/color] Jacob rubbed the back of his head, passively talking to Arthur. [color=teal]“He wants what his parents have, but it is so unrealistic. The fact that his parents got together in the way they did was like a one in 10 billion chance. That doesn’t happen all the time, you know?”[/color] Arthur nodded to his friend, as they slowly made their own way towards Alexander. Love is so dangerous, Arthur was observing from his friends. Arthur was consumed in it towards Eva, but he was already seeing such nasty side effects. Both Alexander and Jacob’s depressions were fueled by their emotions of love and desire. Arthur made a mental note to be more careful in the future with Eva. For once in a long time, the group sat together relatively quietly, as Alexander was usually the one fueling conversation between them. Terrance also didn’t want to speak to Jacob, knowing it would lead up to them arguing over Alyssa, and possibly fighting. They would have to handle this later without the company of Alexander. Then, Arthur almost never spoke unless spoken to, so he was a very unreliable source at the moment. Arthur pulled his phone from his pocket, shooting a message towards Eva. [color=dodgerblue][i]If Helene and Alyssa are still fighting, don’t bring them around Alex.[/i][/color] Terrance held out his lunch towards Alexander, now consisting of half a sandwich, some sliced apples, and carrots. [color=lightblue]“Alex, you must be hungry. You can have the other half of my lunch.”[/color] But Alexander just shook his head, dully looking out at the horizon. Jacob and Terrance both shot a worried glance at one another. It was extremely unlike Alexander to turn down any offer of food. He was a fiend to eat and critique just about any dish offered to him. He was really out of his game. Alexander was in fact starving, as he had skipped out on breakfast. But his hunger pains felt like nothing compared to the invisible weight that he could feel on his shoulders and his chest. Damn, when did it become so hard to breath?
