[EVAN]
End of May or early June
This picture-perfect afternoon we shared
Drive the winding country road
Grab a scoop at À La Mode

"Original name" Y/n giggled.

And then we're there
An open field that's framed with trees
We pick a spot and shoot the breeze
Like buddies do

Oh god, Evan thought as he felt conners confused stare, and the Murphy's hateful glare.

Quoting songs by our favorite bands
Telling jokes no one understands
Except us two
And we talk and take in the view

Zoe Murphy turned her nose up at the sight of herself leaning closer, as if to hear the truth in the lie she didn't know of.

All we see is sky for forever
We let the world pass by for forever
Feels like we could go on for forever this way
Two friends on a perfect day

"Evan? Right? I've literally only had contact with you once?" Conner looked beyond confused.

We walk a while and talk about
The things we'll do when we get out of school
Bike the Appalachian trail or
Write a book or learn to sail
Wouldn't that be cool?

"Jared as rose and Evan as jack on the titanic" Sal giggled.

"Jared would drop Evan, no need for the let go part" Y/n joked.

There's nothing that we can't discuss
Like girls we wish would notice us but never do

"I'm gay" Conner just got more confused. Unable to understand why Evan was doing this.

He looks around and says to me
"There's nowhere else I'd rather be"
And I say, "me too"

He wishes the tree was taller.

And we talk and take in the view
We just talk and take in the view
All we see is sky for forever
We let the world pass by for forever
Feels like we could go on for forever this way, this way
All we see is light for forever
'Cause the sun shines bright for forever
Like we'll be alright for forever this way

Heidi looked at her son.

Two friends on a perfect day
And there he goes
Racing toward the tallest tree

"Acorn really? Even with lying your nature-ness shines through" Jared sniggered.

"Better than his bisexuality shining through eh?" Sal joked.

Evan sputtered.

From far across the yellow field I hear him calling, "follow me" there we go
Wondering how the world might look from up so high
One foot after the other
One branch then to another
I climb higher and higher

Evan bit his lip and gripped his cast, why wasn't it taller?

I climb 'til the entire
Sun shines on my face
And I suddenly feel the branch give way
I'm on the ground
My arm goes numb
I look around
And I see him come to get me
He's come to get me

Conner: You can't even tell YOURSELF the truth.

Evan: What are you talking about?

Conner: How'd you break your arm? How'd you break your arm Evan?

Evan: I fell.

Conner: Really? Is that what happened?

Evan: YES. I was.. I lost my grip and then I just...I fell so...

Conner: Did you fall? Or did you LET GO?

And everything's okay

All we see is sky for forever
We let the world pass by for forever
Buddy, you and I for forever this way, this way
All we see is light
'Cause the sun burns bright
We could be alright for forever this way
Two friends
True friends
On a perfect day.

Evan was curling in on himself, this was not a perfect day.
