Xavier had been acting off all morning and I didn't understand it. He normally tells me everything that goes on in his day but today he just brushed everything off. I was planning on asking him what's wrong when I overheard him and Wednesday talking.
She asked about some scratches on his neck that weren't visible from my view. And even though he told her it was just a fencing accident, I knew he wouldn't hurt himself fencing like that. You would think you would tell your girlfriend if you got hurt fencing. And what was even more strange was that he disappeared after first period.
Later that evening I was going to his shed with some food and water since I hadn't seen him since that morning, and I knew he often got caught up in his paintings to eat. I knocked on the door a few times before he finally opened it, you could clearly see the scratches on his neck when he moved out of the way to let me in.
We stand there for a few seconds before I break the silence, "How'd you get that on your neck?"
"You gonna accuse me of being the monster too?!" He exclaims, I'm shocked by the sudden outburst. "I was just trying to check up in you. You seemed a little off-" he cut me off before I could finish."Don't act like you care! Why are you always trying to check up on me your always so annoying! Your so clingy, can't you just leave me alone?!" I look at him in shock but I keep my cool, even though I'm hurt by his words. I suck in a breath, "Ouch, right through the heart." I let out an empty chuckle. "Uh yeah I'll leave you alone." I can see the instant regret when he realizes what he just said.
I make my way towards the door but stop, "I actually made you some food and brought you water since I figured you hadn't eaten all day." I set down the door and two water bottles onto his desk, and open the door. I walk out but before the door closes I catch it. "And sorry that someone accused you of being the monster." I let the door close.
Once I'm back at my dorm I let out my anger on the throwing knives I have and chuck them at the target hanging on the wall, each of them landing in a different spot. I feel a little better after yelling while throwing them and I decide to take a shower. I look at myself in the mirror, "don't you fucking cry I swear to god."
My body relaxes in the hot shower and when I come back out Enid is over talking with thing in her bed. I walk over to her "Girls night?" I ask and she squeals and jumps up and gives me a hug. "Wednesday get over here your black nails need a new coat anyway." She yells at the gothic girl sitting at her desk. We spend the rest of the night laughing and having fun.

The next morning i sit in my seat praying that Xavier won't sit in the open one next to me, but just my luck he does. He tries apologizing but I just ignore him until I notice his scratches have gotten worse. I sigh and pull him closer to me and grab the extra bandages I have in my bag. You've never know with a school full of outcasts.
"So am I forgiven?" He asks and I roll my eyes. "No Xavier, you asked me to leave you alone that is what I will do. Im cleaning your wound because that is something I'd do for anyone of my friends even Bianca." I say and wipe the cuts before putting the bandage on it and moving away again.
"Alright didn't know you were gonna play petty." I scoff. "You might've, if you would've noticed your girlfriend always plays petty at times like this. Really shows how much attention you pay." He freezes. "Wait no- that's not what I meant." I felt a little bad but he had me very angry from him yelling at me and I think he kinda deserves it. "No really it's fine I wouldn't want to pay that much attention to me either." I give him a fake smile and turn my head to the front once Mrs Thornhill starts teaching.
I can feel his eyes burn into the side of my head and as soon as the bell rings I'm up and out of there. I walk through the halls ignoring him calling out to me until he finally catches up.
"Jesus Christ y/n did you not hear me calling?" I ignore him and keep walking. I spot Ajax and call out to him. "Hey Ajax!" I run over to him. "I need a picture of the homework for next period, can I take a picture of yours?" I still totally ignore Xavier's presence next to me.
"Uh sure y/n." I take a picture. "Thanks Ajax! Your a life saver." I smile and start walking off quickly to my next class leaving Ajax and Xavier behind. By lunch I've managed to ignore Xavier completely and he's had about enough. He's walking over to me when he's stopped by Bianca.
"Hey Xavier I heard you still don't have a date to the Rave'n. You could always you go with me you know." They're close enough that I can hear their conversation and I take the knife I always carry with my and slam it through the wood table to take out my frustration. There's no one at the table I'm sitting at so I'm able to not get weird looks.
But Xavier saw it. Just as quickly as I slammed it into the table I pull it back out and calmly get up and take my lunch somewhere else, not wanting to hear Xavier agree to going with Bianca.
———
just a few minutes before the Rave'n is supposed to start I hear knocking at my door. I assume it's Yoko and the girls I decided to go with. I open the door, "Wow I did not think you guys would be ten minutes early-" I did not expect to see Xavier of all people standing there instead of the girls.
"Uh could we maybe talk? Please?" He looks down at his shoes. "So now you don't want me to leave you alone." I cross my arms but follow him. We walk all the way to the quad before sitting down on a bench.
Xavier suddenly starts rambling out of nowhere. "Look I'm so sorry y/n, I know you don't want an apology but I feel awful for what I said and I didn't mean any of it I swear. Your sweet and kind and beautiful and smart and talented and humble, none of what i said is true. I was just angry at Wednesday for accusing me of being the monster, I know you would never please I need you I miss having you to talk with and I hate you ignoring me. And I love how much you care about me I promise. Your not clingy, well sometimes but I love it, you make my life so much better. Please please please forgive me I love you." I sit there in shock.
"Oh Xavier." I say rubbing my hand across his cheek, you can see the tears in his eyes, that's when it hits me. "Wait, you- you love me?" my eyes go big and he laughs "of course I do, who wouldn't." I bite my lip and look down at my shoes to hide my blush. "I love you too." My voice is barely above a whisper. "What sorry what was that?" He taunts, I huff and roll my eyes. "I love you too." I say again louder this time.
"Shall we go to the dance?" He extends his hand for me to take. "Aren't you going with Bianca?"
"No why would I go with her?" He doesn't give me time to answer. "Wait no don't answer that I already know your gonna say some bullshit excuse like, because she's so pretty. I know you well enough that I know your thinking that your replaceable. Your not, ok?" He grabs my hands in his and looks me in the eyes."...Ok." He smile in triumph. "And you say I don't pay attention." He says laughing and throwing his arm around me.
