Chapter 6: I was looping arms with a bunny rabbit.
Avoiding him. That's all I've been doing for the past week and let me tell you, it was easier said than done. Ethan is actually really persistent. He would try cornering me in the halls setting up traps like he actually put a rotting smell in my locker just so I would have to go into the janitor's closet where he was indeed waiting for me. How I managed to escape all his ethics? Well it was a quarter of determination and the rest of it was just plain old luck.
"Marissa!! Come on Rice cakes!"
Right now he was running after me in the halls but I stumbled into the girl's washroom. Victory: Marissa.
"You have to talk to me someday." I heard him bang on the girl's washroom door. "Oh come on Marissa get out of there people are looking at me like I'm crazy talking to a door, a girl's washroom door."
I stayed silent and a few minutes later, I finally heard Ethan's disappearing footsteps. There was this pang of guilt in my heart. I don't know why I felt so bad. I mean this is what I wanted in the first place right?! If I continue this maybe Ethan will leave me alone for good.
But is that really what you want?
Then I thought back to the real reason to why I was ignoring him; his secret. You see in all the books and stuff whenever the girl ends up with a boy who's in a gang or something illegal her life always gets messed up. I know it's all for love but you know I don't love Ethan and never will I ever!
Could've fooled me... Why are you jumping to conclusions what happens if that guy was lying. Or maybe Ethan doesn't sell them he only buys.
How is that any better?
Hey I'm just trying to see the bright side of things.
There isn't one.
Wow I don't get it aren't I supposed to be the pessimist?
I rolled my eyes internally at my brain. For once I was smarter then it but I couldn't decide if that necessarily a good thing. I headed over to the sink and splashed my face with water. Thank god I didn't wear makeup or else I'd look like a dead racoon. First of all that black stuff (what do you call it?!) would start leaking and to add to all that I haven't been sleeping well these past few days.
Thinking about Ethan I see!
No.
I tried to deny it but even the good and nice part of my brain knew it was true. I mean this is serious stuff.
What if I tell Ethan that I know about his secret who knows maybe I could permanently be wiped off the face of this earth.
