Paper Lives

Chapter 5

Margo's POV
Today is probably counted as a very very weird day. I woke up on my desk with a pencil in my hand. Its not just that, I also had this weird dream where I was taking q for a trip and we were on this bus and I could actually feel it.
I felt very uncomfortable with the way I woke up. I didn't remember sleeping on a chair last night and I also don't remember writing in my journal.
I also had never knew that I could sleepwalk.
I checked my journal and I was very very very freaked out.

LiSt To dO
1. gO to q

I don't think I actually wrote that but based on the capitalizations, I knew it was me.
Maybe this is a sign.
Maybe I will go look for q.
Maybe I will get to kiss this boy again.
I've missed him so much that I actually think I did all these things just because I'm in love with him. I mean, would anyone ever do these kind of things if they don't realize it.
I think it is the right time.
I will
I will go find q. My q
I'll finally get to meet the boy of my dreams.

Quentin's POV
Today started off once again as the lamest day of my life. God I hate this place. But I'll tell you one thing, there are plenty of good looking girls here. I think I might just fall in love once again. I mean, its about time. I can't depend on hoping for margo to come back for me. Right?
There was this one girl named Alice. She's all kind and sweet and shed always give me eyes in class. I think she might just be the one.
Right after class I was walking towards the cafeteria because I felt goddamn hungry right after physics and I won't let my stomach cry and feel sad as much as I am.
Suddenly, I felt a tap on my shoulder. Surprisingly it was Alice.
"Hey quentin"
"Uhm hi. Alice. Right?"
"Yea. And I'm sorry if I was interrupting you on something but wanna go hang out after classes end? I mean maybe we could go for a walk or something? I know this is weird but I just thought that maybe you'd like to be friends with me. Is it okay?"
"Uhh, yea sure. I would love too. So.. I'll see you."
"Okay. You too"
Then she left and I was back to my hungry mood.
When the bell rang I went straight to look for alice and she was standing outside waiting for me.
We went for a walk and she told me all these stories about where she grew up at and how she thought that sunsets were the greatest part of everyday.
I told her about my friends and how we stuck to the rules all year long and had been to one single party only.
Than we went our separate ways and I waved goodbye. On the way back , I started to feel a bit weird. Like something was telling me "no". I didn't know what it was, but I kinda felt like I couldn't be with any other girl but margo. I started to remember her cute smile and her long darkish blonde hair. I remember kissing her in agloe before we went our different paths.
I felt like I can't be with any other person but her and I couldn't give up on my miracle. Yes margo wasn't very close to me in high school but I feel something every time I'm with her. And that is why I can never lose faith on finding my margo.
"Oh, Margo Roth Spiegelman. Where are you when I need you?"
