Thanks, man. I appreciate you taking the time to talk me off the ledge.
[ Because Steve could definitely have told him to fuck off, and Jonathan knows that. He wouldn't have blamed him in the slightest if he did. ]
Yeah.[ He knows she does, but it's easy to get trapped in his own head and convince himself otherwise. ]You're right. And, just, thanks.[ He almost tacks on an apology, for everything, but maybe that's a conversation for another day. ]
[Perhaps if this was a few years ago Steve would have but he likes to think he isn't exactly that person anymore. He's just trying his best to continue crawling forward while he can.
What point would he prove if he did tell Jonathan to fuck off? What would that accomplish?
[ He probably won't, their paths don't cross as much as they used to since Steve graduated, and now that his mom got a new place it's a bit further from Cornwallis. But it's a nice sentiment.
Though, he probably could use a guy his own age to be friends with. It just might be a little weird if the thing that linked them was, well, Nancy. ]
[Steve knows that's highly unlikely considering they aren't exactly friends. Which is rather tragic considering both teens could probably use an actual guy friend.
But with nancy kind of being in the middle of them, might not be the best idea]
