Diamond Eyes {Boy x Boy}

you've seen the butcher - chapter 5

(Marco POV)

        That. That was one of the most amazing things anyone has ever done for me.

        I watch Jacob get inside his house and I get in my car. I sit there for a second, just looking at the special little box. I start to cry. A tear falls on the box, making a little drop. I haven't really cried in that long, so it's unfamiliar to me, so many emotions come flooding into my body, I feel like I'm going to faint from happiness. I'm excited and surprised and grateful and I feel so special to someone.

        That night, I think I got the best sleep I'd ever had. My mom was out job hunting, and my dad, well I don't know. I'm just happy he's not at home, honestly.

        In the morning, I quickly get up after I hear my alarm. I get on something more comfy, since Jakey told me that I dressed too fancy at school yesterday. I put on grey sweatpants and a sims 3 shirt that I've had since the beginning of time. I put a black hoodie on top of it, since it would be rather cold today.

        I grab my keys, phone, and backpack and I go into my garage to drive to school. There's a small scratch on the front bumper of my car, which was definitely not there before. I bet it was one of my parents, because they don't really pay attention to stuff like that.

        I look closer at it, and turn to the side of the car. There is a much larger scratch on the driver's seat door. I bend down and inspect the damage. The line doesn't go deep, but it's about a 2-foot long scratch, which looks like from a key. Neither of my parents have been home for the past day.
I'm furious, I bought this car myself. I try to think about who or what could have done this. I think of someone, but try to ignore the thought. At first I freak out, but I try to be calm about it, and drive to school.

        I see Danny standing in front of the school. I get out of the car, and walk to him.

        "Dude, why didn't you take me home yesterday? Or answer my texts or calls? I had to have my mom pick me up! Do you know how embarrassed I was!?" he slightly yells.

        "You LITERALLY have your own car! I don't want to hear it, Danny. Yes, I'm sorry for not dropping you off, but I told you I got transferred! To the other side of town!" I rebuttal.

        "Why are you getting so heated? Don't act like I haven't done so much for you!"

        "Because you haven't! Stop using me as your god-damned servant and be my actual friend for once!" I squeeze the back of my teeth and walk inside my school.

        He hits the back of his head, and storms off. I see the administrator who was watching the argument, letting me in the school. I'm glad he didn't try to break it up. I swear to god, Daniel makes me want to rip my eyes out.

        I walk to my first hour, still steaming. Jacob greets me with a little wave as I walk over to him. He gives me a worried look.

        "What the hell is wrong? Why are you upset?" He says, worriedly.

        "Daniel. Self-centered ass. His ego is bigger than the square mileage of this country. It pisses me off that I've let this happen for so long." I say, angrily, while I put my stuff under my desk.

        "Hey, you did nothing wrong. I'm so sorry he's like this to you, and if you want to talk about it, you can." He assures me, and I try to calm down.

        The class starts up. I decide to pass a few notes with Jacob, since this class feels like it takes an eternity. I get out my sticky notes, and write down:

        "You're the only one I want to be friends with :)."

         I see him reach his foot out and shuffle it over to him. My aim is pretty good, but I could've done better. I see him turn to me, and smile.
