"Things are just complicated."

Why?

Because Sam had a thing going on with that Disney prince Warbler guy, he was leaving after graduation, and things weren't going to work, Ryder, that's why.

And I really just don't wanna hurt him.

Sam felt his heart drop as soft sobs came from the darkness beside him. It was all he could do to hold back tears as he wrapped his arms around Ryder and kissed his temple softly.

But the decision to stay the night holding Ryder close and whispering that it would be okay into his ear wasn't complicated at all.
