Never 2 Far |An Eminem Fanfiction Unlike No Other|

|Hailie|

*Valentine's Day 2015

The year so far had been a whirlwind of insane. Andre and I were still together, thank God. Apparently he stood up to my Dad. The whole thing with Andre completely destroyed our relationship. It's alright though, I have my friends, I have my music and I have Andre.

Speaking of Andre, he walked up to me. He looked me up and down. I really outdid myself today: dark sanguine long sleeved crop top, black leggings and red velvet wedges. My hair was down in blonde waves flowing down my back. And my face was concealed and eyeliner.

I was talking to Arielle, who dyed her hair half pink to red ombré for today, and Marjorie when he walked up to me. We were leaning against the hunter green lockers as other groups and people passed us and talked to us.

Andre was dressed in a familiar black hoodie and jeans. His earphones were around his neck and his half broken phone was still in his hand.

School was almost over: three tests and tons of homework. I did half of it during a free period, so I just a few bits left.

"Aye Hailie." He said swinging next to me, wrapping a hand around my waist. It felt nice as all of us started talking.

"So, what are y'all doing for today?" Marjorie asked, twirling a lock of her black hair in her fingers.

"I don't know. Her Dad hates me though." He said and Ari laughed.

"Yeah, he's like that." She said.

"Dude, I'm free later. He's going out later and I'm going to be home alone." I said, suddenly remembering my dad and I's tight conversation today. I didn't really want to push the envelope with him, but the new found rebellious side of me said "screw it".

"Really?" Andre said.

"Mhm. You guys can all come." I said and everyone nodded.

"And you swear we won't get caught?" Marjorie said. She was a total freak about being in trouble.

"No, I promise." I confirmed and she sighed in relief.

"Aye, how come you can't just drive us home?" Arielle asked and I shrugged.

"I guess I can." I said and Andre nodded.

"Aight, so Hailie's house after school?" Dre inquired and everyone agreed.

"Yo, can I pull you aside." He said and I smiled and agreed. The girls burst out in "oohs" and we walked down the hallways. The school was off of our arses for good and we walked outside. We hurried around the side of the school to where Adande used to be.

I half expected him to be there, drinking his concealed alcohol. But, he wasn't. A few weeks ago, Adande officially dropped out. He stopped showing up and Andre slowly realized his best friend wasn't around anymore. It took a lot for him to get over Adande leaving him, but with me he got over it.

We sat underneath the window of the gym. The snow didn't reach where we usually sit. It felt amazing, almost nostalgic to be back in the same place where so many memories happened.

Andre turned on his phone. I pushed my ring down on my finger, it slipping off.

"What the fug are you doing?" I inquired just as the instrumental for "21 Questions" by 50 Cent poured out in the speakers. I blushed as he looked at me.

"I've been practicing this forever." Andre said as the introduction on the song ended. I prepared myself for what was happening. My heart was already beginning to scream.

He started.

"If I dropped out school, would we still talk?
If I forgot my motor skills, would you help me walk?
If I got shot again, would you help me get back up?
If I became an alcoholic, would you help me put down the cup?
I'm not trying to doubt what you know.
I'm asking you questions to figure out how you'd handle these blows.
If I benched and pressed more, would you still love me the same?
Or if I was two hundred pounds, would you still love me without shame?
If we start making out and I'm not good at it.
Would you just up and leave me and tell me I ain't shlit?
If I wrote you from jail, telling you somethin' you know I didn't do.
Would you believe me or would you just go along with it too?
You know I love you, Hailie.
You couldn't send me away even if you payed me."

I was in full blown tears right now. All of it was just so sweet and heartfelt. On his verison, Nate Dogg's chorus was still on it. That means he had one of his friends get a special version, just for me. But Andre kept going.

"If your Dad called the police on me.
Would you fight it, or would you just to watch and see?
If I said things that made you laugh and things that make you cry.
Would you count on me to make  your tears dry?
If Shady told you I was with ten other girls
Would you believe him, or would you still stay in my world?
I wouldn't cheat on you, and you know that's true.
I know I'm human and that I make mistakes.
But losing you is a risk I can't afford to take.
You know I love you, Hailie.
You couldn't send me away even if you payed me."

I knew the song wasn't over, but I didn't think my heart could take this much. I loved him too. Now, he was singing along with the chorus, like 50 does in the original. Even though he isn't the best singer ever, it sounded faultless.

When the song ended, the school day was letting out and I was still shocked he'd even think to do something like that for me. He hugged me and rubbed my back in the process. Andre smelled like cologne and the hood, but it was the best scent I've ever smelled in my life.

"I love you so much, Hailie." He said as we went to go blend in with the masses.

"Andre, I can't even fugging tell you how much I love you." I said through some tears.

Then, he followed me to my car where Arielle and Marjorie was waiting. The explanation for my red eyes would wait on the roof.

/Okay, I literally cried while writing Andre's song part. I was listening to "21 Questions" and that idea came to me lol. And I surprisingly think I didn't do too horribly on the rhyme parts. And I didn't have to use rhymezone😂. QOTC: Favorite line in "21 Questions"? Mine was probably the fat kid loves cake one. It was just so cheesy it was cute lol. Catch ya later😉~marshallisillmatic\
