Born To Die

Introduce Ourselves

*A/n lol they added audio to wattpad which is pretty incredible lol. So I guess this will have a soundtrack to it. Probably just a bunch of Hozier songs, but who cares he's amazing *

Marcus POV

I woke up to the blaring sound of my alarm going off. I forcefully slammed my hand ontop of the old fashioned clock. Dragging my sleepy body out of bed. My feet dragged as I walked into my closet to find something to wear. As I finished I went into the bathroom staring back at my reflection.
"Your an amazing guy don't let him ruin your life." I reminded myself.
Shaking the thoughts away of my mom's boyfriend.
"Hey Marcus hurry your going to miss the bus I don't want your mom complaining about how I let you be late to school!" My dad shouted from downstairs.
I quickly pulled on my sweater and grabbed my back with my small camera before heading out. I waited patiently for the bus to arrive, several other kids I never talked to slowly walking up. The bus came to a screeching halt, the doors opening with a swift motion.
"Good morning." The bus lady beamed a little to happily.
I smile back feeling bad because I knew I would be the only one to respond back to her. I sat far in the back of the bus not wanting to be bothered by anyone. As the bus began to drive off I pulled out my ear buds, putting my music on shuffle. Ordinary Human by one republic came on. I slightly smile, this was Carter's and mine favorite song. The bus stopped by the school and I walked off saying goodbye staring down at my feet.
"Hey so did you bring your camera today?" Scott asked elbowing me in my arm.
I laughed, "Yeah I brought it but I won't be filming until lunch."
He nodded, "So what is it going to be about?" He asked curious.
"Umm well Carter suggested that I filmed you guys so I guess that's what I'll do." I answered returning my eyes to my blue vans.
We sat down in our seats preparing for Bio.
"That's cool that'll be different since I mean it won't be all scripted and cheesy. Like how they make it seem in movies."
We laughed joking about how those movies lied about every aspect of highschool.
The biology teacher came in tears stained her sandy cheeks. Everyone whispered wondering why she was such a wreck. The teacher quietly sat down at her desk, not putting any of her attention towards us.
"Class I am sorry to inform you that we lost a very special student today. Let's give or respects to his siblings whenever you see them around." She told us her voice cracking.
We wrote the notes on the board people whispering about the boys death.
"Scott why is she crying? Did she know him?"
"Yeah... She found him." He said quietly.
I glanced back at her feeling nothing but pity. No one should find a persons dead body, especially a suicide.
Lunch finally came around and we sat at the top of the bleaches watching the marching band practice. Scott and Denzell were talking, so I figured it would be a perfect time to pull out my camera.
Before I could get ten seconds into the video Cater caught me and began smiling. I couldn't help but smile back.
"Hey look what the cat dragged in, finally got away from your vampire friends." Denzell laughed we turned our attention to annoyed Mandy.
"Hahaha very funny Denzell, and they're not vampires stop saying that." We laughed as she sat down below us.
"What's this?" She asked pointing at my camera, me still filming her.
"Oh umm its a project." I lied knowing if I told the truth she wouldn't want to be in it.
She nodded and began talking about her new friends.
"Ugh they're so annoying the don't want to do anything fun. I swear every time I brought something up for us to do. They quickly oblige. And say something like oh I have homework oh I have band practice. Like whatever they're just a bunch of pansys that's all." She rambled.
I chuckled, "Like Denzell said their vampires what did you expect hahahaha."
She glared at me annoyed, I stopped laughing not wanting to hurt her feelings.
"Why do you guys say that anyways?"
"Well for starters they never eat at least at school, only show up half the time when its cold and there's no sun showing. And they're just weird so why not." Denzell explained.
Carter intervened, "Hahaha that's not true Denzell you watched to much Twilight. They come out in the sunlight dumb ass." Scott laughed at her comment.
"Whatever I'm just saying don't be shocked when you wake up in a coffen or something."
We laughed.
"Sooo maybe you guys should like introduce yourself or something." I suggested changing the subject.
"Mhm okay I'll go first. I'm Mandy the most popular out of all of us and I'm on the cheer team. GO WILDCATS! oh and I'm available if you know what I mean." She laughed.
"Well I guess we can all guess how you became so popular." Scott joked.
Mandy glared at him looking back at the band.
"Uh I'm Scott, this schools next MVP for football ha. Aaaand I'm a A- student so I guess that's good. Oh and Mandy claims she's the most popular but we all know its all about me hahaha."
"Please bruh I get all the females at this school." Denzell shot back.
"Which ones the one that have no personality at all or the ones that can't see.?" I commented back.
He laughed, "That's cold Marcus that really hurt. Anyways I'm the funniest guy you'll ever meet and to all of the girls that rejected me, your going to regret when I'm rich and famous."
"Whatever, I'm Carter," she smiled her beautiful smile, "and this is my bomb boyfriend I'm on the school drama club, cheerleader too, and schools yearbook committee."
She took the camera from my hands and pointed it at me, "Go Marcus introduce yourself."
I sat there not knowing what to say.
"Hi I guess I'm Marcus and I'm the person filming this." I said and quickly took the camera away.
