SECRETS

Chapter 2 - Stupidity

*This is a short chapter. I got too lazy to make it long. Enjoy though. =))

January 7,2013. Classes resumed. I didnt realize that school was gonna be a problem. Not until I saw MIguel. The guy in my dreams. Bea's stepbrother. The mean guy.

I decided to approach him.

"Hey, good morning." I said while keeping up with his pace.

"What?" He grumbled.

"Uhm, so why are you here?" I asked

"So, I'm not allowed here?" He raised one eye.

"No, just curious." I shrugged.

"I didn't come here to be interrogated. I came here to study. I came here to graduate and get over with high school. I didn't come here to be interviewed by someone I barely even know." He said sharply.

"Well I'm your stepsisters bestfriend. Mia. Nice to meet you." I held out my hand

He ignored my hand. "Bye." He said and left me standing in front of the office.

I stood there looking like an imbecile waiting for someone to teach me how to speak. I didn't know why being ignored by this stranger hurts me so much. Since the day I slept over Bee's, the day I dreamt and realized that he was the man in my dreams, the day I met him, I haven't been getting a lot of sleep. Everything's weird. I feel like a stupid lamb waiting for the lion to strike. I dont like this.

 

The rest of the day came in blur. My devastation added up because neither Bee or Nacy was any of my classes, and to make it worst, Miguel was in 5 of my classes. Now that, was AWKWARD.

I rushed to the exit once the bell rang. I rode my bike home and stormed to my bedroom. I digged for my ipod and my headphones and placed Look at me now ~ Chris Brown on replay and full volume. Not even bothering to undress, I slumped my body onto my bed and closed my eyes. I turned myself around and pressed my face to the pillow. Later on.. I fell asleep.

And there he was, in my dreams again. The real Miguel is just way too different from the guy in my dreams. MY Miguel was courteous. Gentle. Just.. different.

The next day was better. I came to school with a smile. I decided to ignore him completely. The plan worked. I didn't look at him, or talked to him, or even glance his way. I didn't want to admit it, but what he did really caused a lot of pain. I dont know why, but it just seemed so stupid that I felt this connection with a guy I barely knew.. 

I spent lunch alone in the cafeteria. Neither Bee or Nacy knew what I was feeling right now. I know very well, that they would sure be weirded out. Especially Bea! O god, especially Bee. I sighed. Someone covered my eyes and I screamed a pitchful sreech that I knew everybody could hear.

"Shut up!" Nacy hissed and uncovered my eyes.

"Oh." I said, still amused. Everybody was staring as I expected.

"Whats up with you? You seem.. Weird." Bee said with flat intonation. She sat across the table.

"She's ALWAYS weird." Nacy giggled.

"Nah, just wondering what to take up for college" I lied and snorted.

"Yea right, Mia, everybody who knows you knows what you want for college." Bee rolled her eyes

"New York." They both said in unision.

I laughed. I didnt have the strength to tell them why I was being like this. It was just too.. Stupid. I never hid secrets from these two. It was something we promised during the first years of our friendship; To never keep anything as a secret. But this was an exception. I can't tell THIS to them. I'm just not ready to tell them, or anyone else about this stupidity.

I mean, could it really be possible for me to fall for someone I barely know? I involuntarily shrugged at that thought. This is just too weird. This has to end..
