Im sorry but I love you. [eddie munson]

down the line

I lock my bike to the bike rack and hear the teachers telling the students to go to the gym for the opening of the pep rally.

My eyes roll at the thought of seeing Jason and the rest of the team give a speech about winning or whatever, like it matters. In a few years I wish to never see their faces and not even a squeak of their names unless it meant that one of them went to jail or went bankrupt.

I start walking to the gym and i walk by Eddie

"Hey eddie" i say walking to his side

"You excited for the game" i say sarcastically because i know he doesnt give two flying fucks about the game

"I'm actually not going to the actual game. i have a campaign to do, for dnd" he explains

"Oh right, i guess i'm stuck watching the game alone" i realise

"You can watch us, if you're interested in dnd. I can explain the mechanics to you if you want" he offers

"Sure if that's cool with the others?" i say

"They don't have a choice "

We walk in the gym and take a seat next to each other

Everyone is separated by year and were separated from Mike and Dustin because they're 9th graders. It's pretty funny that Eddie hangs out with them, but I also think it's nice.

The assembly starts and the band starts playing and the cheerleaders come in and do their thing. I clap as everyone does even eddie, i blow lola a kiss and she winks at me, I snicker

"So you and lola," he hesitates to ask "you guys are like a, thing?" he asks

"Oh no, we're just good friends, i like boys " i answer making eye contact

"Right i just, i just thought you, yeah" he stutters and then goes back to watching the cheer

I smile thinking of his reaction. I understand why he thinks were together me and lola are pretty close, we've been friends since i was a freshman. We've seen each other in all states. I'd trust her with my most valuable things even my life.

The cheerleaders are done with their dance so now the damn basketball team enters.

sigh here we go.

Jason enters with the rest trailing behind him, i don't understand he sucks at basketball why the hell do people like him

He starts talking giving his stupid speech.

I hate his voice, i hate his stance, the way hes fucking built.

He talks about using the people we lost as inspiration.

Is he fucking kidding?

How dare he use the deaths of people to seem fucking patriotic?

He mentions billy and i look to mayfield who looks bothered

He doesn't know half of the people he mentioned. What an ass.

"I wanna boo him so bad." i tell eddie

"Do it" he says with his arms crossed

"Hell no ill be eaten alive, if your so tough do it"

"Cant if i get detention again it might reflect on my grade, i wanna graduate this time"

"Guess we're stuck listening to this dumbass"

"Wanna sneak out?"

I consider it, there's a few more minutes then we have free period then lunch then the game.
