For this week's update, I am doing a double chapter🎉🎉 since we hit over 500 reads.💕
-Marvin
A little background on Marcus's past:
At 5 years of age, Marcus' parents died in a really bad car accident and they ended up with Marcus losing both parents. Marcus was then adopted into an abusive home with 5 different siblings. Marcus's adoptive mom was getting abused as well. Each day she used makeup before she went to work because of the deep cuts and bruises on her face and body.Marcus's adoptive father started to abuse Marcus after 3 months of living there. The beating got so bad that Marcus got a big scar on his back. The scar got infected a couple of weeks after and they had to take him to the hospital. The nurses and the doctors at the hospital realize that Marcus is being abused.
A few weeks later Marcus was placed in another foster home where his dad and mom were loving but they had a drug addiction and his dad was a manwhore. Marcus adopts his adopted father's behavior and became a man whore and loves himself and nobody else.
Sorry to interrupt again guys but I wanted to let you guys know what Marcus Pass is like how he got that scar on his back and the things he was going through as a kid...this is chapter 6. Marcus is cold.
Stacey pov
I stand there in horror, my mouth dropped to the floor my eyes widen at each second of the
video. I don't recall of me and Marcus kissing, I remember nothing I said to myself."Curly hair girl are you dead?" Noah said.
I was still in shock that I shook my head and said yes.
I heard my phone blowing up in my room but I was still shocked I had to take a minute to myself.
After gathering my thoughts I finally went back to my room and checked my phone I was hoping it was James since he had hung up the phone in my ears earlier.
I opened my phone to see 1000+ notifications from Instagram, and TikTok, messages, and 50+ missed calls from unknown number.
What the fuck..
I opened my Instagram to see the video of me and Marcus kissing. The video blew up in a few hours.
I looked under the comment section and there were a lot of hateful comments.
"I can't believe Marcus kissed that bitch."
"Her curly hair looks like my poo."
"I hope she dies."
And the comments go on and on. I shut down my phone and started to cry because I didn't know what else to.
There was a knock at my door "Curly hair girl are u there?" It was Noah.
"My name is Stacey, not curly hair girl."
"Sorry, can I come in?"
"Sure."
Noah entered the room and I could see his freckles more clearly and his wonderful brown eyes. Noah sat beside me.
"Let me guess you crying because your cat died?" Noah clicked his fingers.
"No."
"Umm what about you lost your favorite hairbrush."
"No Noah."
"Then what is it? I give up" Noah rolled his eyes.
"Didn't you see the hatefully comments under the video."
"Oh those."
"Yes."
Noah laughed "You are crying about those."
There was a moment of silence.
"Listen get yourself cleaned up and we will figure this out" Noah held my hand and for the first time I felt like I had a big brother who was there for me.
Noah left the room for me to wipe up my tears and fix my messy hair.
I put my hair in a ponytail and headed for my room door.
I walked into the kitchen with baggy sweatpants and Marcus' hoodie that was on his room floor.
Noah and Marcus didn't seem to have noticed that I was at the entrance of the kitchen.
Marcus' hair was still messy and he still didn't have on a shirt,
Noah's curls were perfectly fixed and they were in place like he used hair spray.
"Hi," I said with a sad tone.
"There you are," Noah said.
Marcus was silent.
"Hi Marcus" I repeated myself.
Marcus was still silent.
Marcus turned his head to me and looked at me in disgust.
Marcus turned back his head to Noah and they continued chatting about the video. I didn't care because it was just a kiss and am sure my boyfriend wouldn't mind right.
I was getting bored of Marcus and Noah chatting so I decided to get something to drink.
I opened the fridge and took out a can of Sprite.I pulled the Can and put it to my mouth. The acid in the sprite hit my tongue and it felt like I was in heaven.
"Shut up Stacey!" Marcus shouted
I choked on the sprite."what did I even do?"
"Stop making that disgusting gulp sound it's annoying."
I was so lost in my mind I didn't realize that I was gulping loudly. "Sorry."
Marcus rolled his eyes and walked out of the room.
