Connor had wanted to call Evan for days now but he hadn't been able to make himself do it. He was sure the other boy had homework and other things going on, and though he knew Evan would empathetically promise that he wasn't a burden, Connor still didn't want to bother.
That morning, however, he'd been given the news that he would be going home on Saturday. Connor couldn't remember a time when he had felt happier than he had the moment Dr. Beckett told him. It felt good, actually wanting to return to a place he felt safe. He felt... cared for. He decided that Evan would want to know. Dr. Beckett had probably already told Susan, and so it wouldn't surprise him if Evan already knew, but he still wanted to share the news with him.
Making his way over to the phones after dinner, Connor sat down and lifted the reciever from the phone. He brought it to his ear and dialed the number which he had memorized at this point. He'd wanted to call enough times that the number was etched into his memory. His finger hesitated over the last number but he forced himself to press it, his leg shifting up and down nervously as he listened to the dial tone.
He wondered what Evan had been up to. He hoped he was doing alright. Would he be happy to have Connor coming home after having the place and Susan to himself for two weeks? Would it be awkard, with Connor coming back into their lives? They had both visited a few times since he was admitted and it hadn't seemed like they didn't want him around, but Connor couldn't help but wonder.
Would Evan still want to be his friend?
