"Fucked Up Sweethearts." (TWDG Marlon Fanfiction)

Chapter 12

***

The greenhouse trip was awkward, and that's the only word I can use to describe it. Nobody really said anything, besides when we found an old teacher trapped in a fence outside of the greenhouse.

Although there was one conversation running through my mind that I had with Mitch while Marlon was clearing out the greenhouse for us.

"So, are you and Marlon, like, a thing now?" Mitch asked, ending the silence we were sitting in for a moment as he leaned against the wall and crossed his arms, looking down at me curiously.

"I think so. I don't know yet." I said to him honestly as neither one of us had asked each other out officially yet.

"How do you not know?" Mitch scoffed.

"Because I don't." I snapped back with attitude. "Why does it matter to you anyways?"

"It doesn't."

"Then why are you asking about it?"

Mitch went silent after that. He avoided eye contact and directed his gaze towards the ground.

"Cat got your tongue?"

Mitch glared up at me before rolling his eyes and looking away.

"Just be careful." He said.

Before I could ask him to elaborate, Marlon had opened the door.

Not knowing what Mitch meant had been nagging me all day, and I was tempted to just ask Marlon about it himself.

We were now just hanging around the campus, taking a break from everything for a little bit. God knows we needed one.

I was up in a dim corner, underneath the balcony as I watched everyone else move around and laugh and talk. I wanted to be like them, but it was hard to do so in this world nowadays.

After a little bit of just sitting and observing, I decided to go inside and try to get a nap in to rest my exhausted body. I still really wanted to talk to Marlon, but I knew I would need energy for that.

I walked down the hallway towards my room, the door being open as I just walked into my room, freezing for a moment as someone had beat me there.

"Hey." Marlon said, standing up from my bed as he locked his eyes on me, taking slow steps forward.

"Hi." I said softly, watching him as he got closer me, eventually only being inches away from me.

We stared into each others eyes for what seemed like eternity before one of us finally made a move.

Marlon swiftly put a hand on the back of my neck and put the other on my lower back, pulling me into him as he placed a rough kiss on my lips.

I kissed him back, wrapping my arms around his neck to deepen the kiss, which I did so successfully.

"God, I missed you so much." Marlon whispered in my ear between kisses, causing me to moan blissfully yet quietly as we made out in the middle of my room.

Not caring that the door was open, Marlon paused the kiss for a second to put his hands underneath my thighs to lift me up to his waist.

I wrapped my legs around him, keeping my arms wrapped around him as he placed his hands on both of my ass cheeks, squeezing them as he shoved my back up against the wall and resumed the kiss.
