Burden To Those Who Want

.03

It was now the end of school and the school day was so fucking horrible. Why was school even invented? I made my way over to my locker where I found Sam already standing and waiting on me to come from my last class. I got my stuff and we started walking out of the school, for some reason it was like I was safe with him next to me. We walked to my house and went inside. He told me he wanted to meet my parents and get to know them since he was going to be my new friend. 

I couldn't get the new guy off my mind, but the reason I couldn't was that my sister brought him home. He looked at me with a very wide and friendly smile. "Hey there Morgan, It's great to see you," he said waving. "Yeah hey Evan, How are you?" "I'm good, just getting to know your sister she is quite annoying when it comes to asking for things," he said and I slowly started laughing. It was like Sam and Evan knew what I was thinking and they knew how she was. It was amazing to know I wasn't the only one. I did notice that they were both staring at me like I was a cute puppy that they had just picked up off the street. It was kind of making me uncomfortable, but just in time, my sister came in clinging to Evan's arm. 

Evan looked very uninterested in her. Of course, he would be, she isn't even that smart. She has really bad grades and she is a cheerleader, she's fucking dumb and none of her friends see it. Sam looked at me and a smile was twitching at the end of his lips. It made me smile. We both decided to go upstairs to my bedroom and study until it was time for him to go home. 

It was about three hours later that we ahead and started closing our books and putting them away in their rightful place. He put his backpack on and waved me goodbye. I never actually thought I would make friends with a guy out of all people. It was nice talking to someone who didn't think you were a stuck-up princess. 

I liked him. Not in a crushing way. Kinda, but in a friendly way. He was nice, gentle, honest, and helpful. He was also attractive too. 

I want to go to my Aunt's house next week for spring break, but she told me that they had to go somewhere for my cousin's baseball game. She told me that it was going to be in Ohio and I couldn't go because I lived in Wyoming. My mom also told me no since 'we didn't have the money for the plane' I knew she was lying. 

My night ended with me going to bed thinking about why a serial killer would kill for fun sometimes. It always astonished me as to why they were even killing in the first place. I wanted to know so badly, but eventually, I fell asleep to the sound of the music on my cassette player on low.

I woke up that morning to my dad yelling my name at my door. Great he acknowledged me after years of him pretending I didn't exist in the world. I sat up and looked up at him from my bed, of course, my bed. "yes?" I said obliviously annoyed at his actions right now. "It's time to get up for school now," he said visibly trying not to yell at me since my sister was right there next to him. He never yelled around Tina because he didn't want her to be like him when she was older, but what he didn't know was that she was already like him. "Alright fine just let me get dressed and I'll be downstairs in a minute," I said getting up. He left my room without another word. I was in a baby blue silk nightgown that my Aunt had given me for my tenth birthday. I couldn't wear it because I was too short for it. 

I got dressed in a baby blue sweater with small black hearts on it and a baby blue skirt with a chain on the side with doc martins as my choice of shoes. I put my books in my backpack along with the homework I did last night with Sam. I went downstairs and grabbed a granola bar. I went out the door to find Sam already waiting for me at the end of the walkway. 

He smiled at me and waved. "Hey, how did you sleep sunshine?" he asked me making me blush slightly at the nickname. "I slept good, how about you?" "I slept good just couldn't stop thinking about something that happened yesterday," He chuckled lightly. "Oh well, do you have extracurricular activities at school?" "No, what about you?" "I play band, and my band teacher is the only teacher that treats me like a normal person," I smiled at him. "Alright well, we are here at school now so I guess I'll see you later?" "yeah, I'll see you later, bye." 

As I walked to class Evan came up to me, my sister wasn't with him. "Hey, how are you doing?" "I'm good just getting my stuff to go to class." "Alright well after class meet me by the bleacher later okay?" "Okay, I'll see you there then."

I went to class thinking 'why does he want to meet me at the bleachers?'
