I shake my head. “There’s the problem. My life is one huge joke and that’s the punchline!”
What have I done? Have I just destroyed years of friendship? Have I lost him?

What if he hates me? Why did he kiss me? Why won't he answer my texts, and phone calls, and IMs? I have a million questions. And no answers.

I nod. “It can’t get much worse, can it?” I only half ask.
I want to point out that it probably could but I keep my mouth shut.
