Maybe It's Adoration.

Chapter Three, The Secret Admirer

Time Skip. You guys woke up and walked to school.

Melanie's Pov

I walked to my first class to notice y/n not there. I didn't think much, i thought she was skipping but I felt scared for her. I don't know why, but I couldn't brush off the feeling. I started to get a small headache, one that would throb in my head and would never leave. My stomach started to hurt as I got lost into my throughts creating scenarios if y/n was actually okay.
"MELANIE!" The teacher called as I was snapped out of my trance.
I got distracted again when I saw y/n she was pretty like always but she seemed off, extra excited as she ran towards me and sat down. I got a wave of relief hit me noticing y/n was okay. I did get a little scared as I seen the teachers look towards me, I was hoping he would forget he called on m-
"Melanie, what's the answer."
I stare in pure confusion not knowing a single thing of what he's explaining. My palms sweat as I furrow my eyebrows and fiddle with my fingers until..
"2 is the answer." y/n called out as she sat back down and smirked at me
I smiled back and felt relief, I wasn't put under stress again
I saw multiple people I didn't even know their name, but they were glancing at me and whispering. I could tell y/n noticed it and gave them a nasty look, I didn't want to let y/n know I seen her glance, but it made me happy that I found someone who cares. I kept getting lost into my thoughts but y/n caught my attention saying
"Mel, I have to talk to you" She says squealing, I could tell she's excited but the curiosity hit me.
"What is it?" I try to ask and not sound so clingy, even though I am. I was only trying to match y/n energy.
"I think I have a secret admirer!" Y/n squeals almost falling out her chair.
I put on a fake smile, why was I feeling jelous? Y/n probably doesn't have the same feelings as I do. Maybe it's envy? In like a type of way where I want a secret admirer too. It's not like I want y/n. I think to myself trying to put that thought to stay in my head.
"Hello? Did you hear me Melanie.. earth to mel?"
Y/n snaps Melanie out of her trance
"Yeah that's amazing I guess?! Who is it?"
"It's a secret admirer mel, I don't know." Y/n giggles.
I playfully punch y/n shoulder as she rubs the spot I softly punched her in and pouted pretending to be hurt. I giggled, more of a fake giggle. The curiosity only grew bigger everytime I thought about it.
The bell rang and it made my stomach drop even more.
"Mel pack, get your binder let's goooo." Y/n says getting bored, I knew she was joking but I still rushed.
"Okay, let's go now." I say.
Y/n doesn't respond she just runs back to her locker to see another note, sticking out from the gap in her locker.
I walk over and peak over her shoulder to see it.
It was a poem, it was a confident one. Confessing love, I could see a boy looking at her he was standing against the wall by science. I gave him a glare, but he wasn't even looking at me. His eyes glued on y/n. I didn't have any thought about it.
Who was the person confessing love? Me and Sarah are her only friends.
"Y/n, you done reading." I say.
"Yeah, it's kinda creepy." She giggles and takes a pause to glance at the love letter. She quotes a sentence from the love letter.
"I've been watching you and my love grew bigger?! That's terrifying." Y/n laughs.
"Do you like them back?" I speak fastly.
"No, obviously not. I don't even know them. Yet atleast."
"Okay, just wondering." I play a fake soft smile on my lips and look down. Y/n seems to notice that I'm worried, I didn't specifically know what I was worried for, but I was.
"Well, how about we head to science." Y/n says as walking towards the room, she notices the boy and smiles at him. I gotten a little jelous again as I seen them walk by the side of eachother and sit in their seats. I sit across from y/n as the boy stares at her.
"Who was the boy standing by the science door?" I question.
"I don't know, his name is Michael, I think?"
Time skip, u/n pov
It was 8:00pm and I was heading to bed after putting my hair into a messy bun, and some comfy pajamas after showering. I put on some fluffy socks with comfy slippers.
I didn't care about the secret admirer. It was nice and all, but I obviously knew it was that person I barely knew Michael. He was just a player, and I'm pretty sure everyone knew. I wasn't intrested in him.
I got a message, it was Sarah. I realized I haven't spoke to her in 2 days, and the last conversation wasn't that good.

Sarah: so, who is the new friend?

Y/n: Melanie Martinez.

Sarah: no way you're friends with that loser OMG!!

Y/n: can you stop making fun of my friend? That's overstepping a boundary.

Sarah: oh and now you are sticking up for her? What's next you're gonna date her! I totally bet you have a crush on her.

Y/n: just stop, me and mel are friends only, and you disrespecting her to me makes me not wanna even talk to you anymore, Sarah.

Sarah: whateverrrrr, you think I'm gonna be friends with someone who's friends with a loser? I bet you're Melanie's ONLY friend. Good luck with her, she gets bullied LOL.

Y/n: don't see how bullying is funny at all. don't expect to sit with me at lunch anymore once you're back, goodbye. Go spend summer break alone.

I blocked Sarah, I cannot believe what I was even seeing. She was changing, the new popular group she hangs out with on vacation is really turning her into a two-faced total new person.

I start to go to sleep, tomorrow was Tuesday and I was planning to not even go to school tomorrow. But I'm probably only going to see Melanie.

I'll update in a few hours with a new chapter!!
