Episode 4
Milo
what’s going on with you?
Milo
why do you keep staring at me?
Milo
i wasn’t gonna either way
Rocky gets up and takes off
Ethan
you think that’s weird?
Milo
he’s been acting pretty strange recently
Ethan
how does he act towards you?
Ethan
is it any different from when he treats someone else?
Milo
it’s completely different
Milo
he’s all tough and rude when it comes to other people but when he’s with me he’s just a big soft bear
Ethan
he’s loosing at his own game
Ethan
what were his rules?
Milo
i have to stay beside him at all times
Milo
he tracks me so he can see where ever i am or went to
Milo
he needs to know where i am at all times with the tracker
Milo
i can’t catch feelings for him either
Milo
that’s the most important rule to the game
Milo
that’s what he told me at least
Ethan
that’s a new rule i’ve heard
Ethan
but the catching feelings one it’s just a common one he uses
Milo
i’ve already broken some of the rules
Milo
and i didn’t get caught
Milo
i guess he didn’t realize it
Milo
i think he’s kinda hot
Ethan
why on earth would you think he’s “hot”?
Ethan sighs and facepalms
Milo
i’m not breaking any rules
Milo
i didn’t catch feelings
Milo
i’m just calling him hot
Milo takes out his phone and his headphones
He goes to an app and starts playing some music
Rocky takes one of Milo’s headphones and puts it in his ear
Milo doesn’t say anything
Rocky
you listen to this too?
Rocky
yeah of corse i know it
Rocky
is your dad always this rude to you?
Milo
oh is he criticizing me again?
Milo
he’s been like that since i was 7
Rocky
that’s so young though..
Milo
but it really doesn’t matter
Milo
i’ve grown used to it by now
Milo
it’s an everyday thing so it’s okay
Rocky
what about your mom?
Milo
she’s only nice when people are around
Milo
i don’t have the best relationships with them
Milo
i’ve been through things alone
Rocky
is that why you don’t have any friends?
Milo
sometimes i don’t want to make friends but then i get upset when i don’t have any friends
Milo
it’s hard for me to make friends
Milo
i haven’t had a friend since i was in pre school so Ethan was my first one since then
Milo
i actually tried pushing him away at some point but i realize that he really did want to be friends with me
Rocky
wait so you push people away?
Rocky
then how come you didn’t push me away yet?
Milo
i guess you’re just different
Milo
but i also don’t have a choice
Milo
i can’t push you away otherwise i’ll lose the game
Milo
and you said if i lose the game i’ll be “punished” or whatever
Milo
uh we need to get to class
Milo
you can tell me later
Milo
you didn’t do anything
Milo
don’t worry about it alright?
Milo
let’s just go to class and pretend this never happened
Rocky follows Milo to class silently
As the bell rings again for the second time, Rocky throws something at Milo
Milo
(a crumbled piece of paper?
Milo
(“i don’t want to play the game anymore with you i want to be friends. - Rocky”
Milo looks back at Rocky and give him a thumbs up
