Then what is your name?    

***Madison***

The days flew by like gusts of wind, and now, piles of homework crushes me every single freaking day. Ugh!

The newspaper club is another problem, and William sure didn't make it easy for me.

How long has it been since I haven't talked to my dad or Sebastian?

Who knows how long? I don't really care much anymore....

It's been probably quite some time already since that incident, but now that I think about it in a more rational and sensible perspective...it eats me and crushes me even more than it ever had.

I lost my best friend on that day...all because of that stupid fight we had.

Okay well maybe he wasn't my best friend. My best friends are actually my sisters. But...I lost a good friend either way.

I don't even know why it was such a big deal to Sebastian...but apparently it was.

I hate my life sometimes...and during that time, I hated my life more than I ever had before.

Especially since now, my father and I are barely communicating, let alone sparing glances at each other.

At least I can talk to my sisters still...and genius...and William.

Sometimes, I really just wanna give up on everything, go to bed and not wake up ever again to experience life.

Life's like a bed of roses...

Yeah right...maybe you should have mentioned the part where we had to go through a bunch of sharp and pricky thorns that can cause you to emotionally die inside before reaching those roses of lie....

But...I can tell I'm not the only one going through these things...

I'm sure there are a ton of people out there who's experiencing the same thing as me...right?

Even genius himself, looks as though he's going through some tough times...real tough times might I add.

I want to talk to him more and get to know him better, but he's always sleeping after class and during break or lunch...

And the times that he takes to sleep and rest, are when I do actually have time to talk to him...or anyone...

I want to help him too, but how in the heck can I help him...if I can't help myself and get a freaking grip.

I wonder what happened to him, he's been even more immersed in his thoughts than ever.

Only God knows what we're all going through....

Classes went on as fast as time...just passing through, not coming or waiting for you.

I always wondered why it was like that...when your life is crappy and everything's tumbling down on you, time seems to speed up and lose you in the race...and so little time means less fun and less...well...anything really.

But more time for hurt and pain....

This is getting crappily depressing.

Only God knows when things will miraculously be less depressing, stressful and awkward.

Only God knows when I'll be better friends with William or...genius...or when I'll be friends with Sebastian again....

"You know what? Let's just stop being friends--"   

I feel a tear roll down my cheek and immediately wipe it away...

I didn't need to cry over that...I've been a cry baby for enough times already...I need to stay strong...for my sisters...and myself.

As I continued to wallow in my indefinite thoughts and feelings, the bell rang, signaling the start of lunch, the start of stomachs being filled till its full.

Seeing that genius wasn't sleeping...yet, I rushed over and tapped him on the shoulder.

I felt this sudden urge and need to talk to him today...and well, he's the only friend that I see everyday that I can talk to....since, Sebastian doesn't even ride with me to school anymore, and we don't even communicate with each other.

"Hey! How ya doing genius?" I greeted teasingly.

Genius never really liked it when I called him genius, but he never really told me his name anyway...and for some reason, I didn't have the guts to ask for his name. So...yeah.

"Hey...what's up?" genius answered wearily.

"Nothing, just wanted to chat. You...wanna go for lunch with me? I'm kinda...lonely today." I questioned nervously, I rubbed the back of my neck "casually", trying to ease the awkward atmosphere somehow.

"Yeah...sure, what harm could it do to me anyway. Right?" he replied with a tight smile, he stood up weakly, as though he hasn't walked in a few days, as though he needed time to just stand up and walk.

His elbow and probably his whole left arm brushed against mine, and I could instantly feel the heat rushing up to my cheeks, leaving a rosy pink stain on it, one that could not be wiped off with a damp and clean cloth.

This sent a spark of energy in me and I couldn't help but smile at how nice it felt.

"Let's go then. By the way, my name's not genius." he said with a cute pout.

"Then what is your name genius?" I asked, my hands on my hips, before grabbing his hand and heading off for lunch. Not bothering to wait and hear for an answer.

Out of the corner of my eye, I could see genius' cheeks puff out more and I laughed internally if that was somehow humanly possible for how cute he looked.

And achievement!

I asked for his name but...still didn't get his name.

Oh well.
