Missing Out Big Time

MARION VAN DE BERG

~~ show them all you're not the ordinary type ~~

'So how far how is your new school.' My dad said as he placed the chicken soup infront of me.

'Not so well. It's a place where girl's hate eachother for no reason and boys try to sleep with 3 girls in a night. I hate it.' I said zoning out , ignoring my dad's sour face.

'It's one of the best school's in New York.' He extened the "New York" bit.

'Dad , a good education doesn't mean there is going to be good people in it. Just be happy if i dont kill myself before the end of this year.' I pulled down the sleve of my hoodie , stirring my soup trying to make it a bit cooler.

'Hey , don't joke about suicide. That's not cool , you ought to know better.' My dad said as i realised he was right. Joking about suicide was not nice.

'Where's mum. Stealing money again?' I raised my eyebrow causing my dad to cross his eyebrows.

'Marion Ellen Van De Berg. Don't talk about your mother like that again.' He said in a stern voice but it didn't intimidate me one bit.

'What? It's not like she hasn't done it in the past. You need to stop cleaning after her dad. I know we have a very important place in the industry but just for once , i want you not cleaning up her messes.' I said as my dad's facial features softened a bit.

'She called me saying she was working late at the office. Lots of meetings and folders to rearrange.' My dad also sat across me with his soup.

'See Dad , you may pretend that you're happy no matter with mum but you just cant ignore that she's missing in our lifes big time and that she is making huge messes and expecting us to clean up after her! I have no friends , had to change schools damnit , we even thought about moving to The Netherlands!' I said trying to hold back the tears.

'Honey , i completely agree with you. It's just... You need a mother figure in your life.' My dad said as i looked up to him.

'Actually I dont. She wasn't around at all that you pretty much did everything that mum's did. You taught me how to dress but at the same time you told me how to be myself. You're the best parent in the world , i'm so grateful for that.' I said as my dad leaned over holding my hand.

'Speaking of The Netherlands , i'm thinking about taking you there this winter.' My dad said doing a funny thing with his eyebrows.

'Oh dad , it's so cold there! And my Dutch sucks!' I said as my soup had finally cooled down and i started drinking it.

'Oh but you're grandma and grandpa misses you!' He said mixing up his face.

'They barely know English and i barely know Dutch. Doesn't seem good. But yeah , it'll be nice if we visit.' I said as the rest of dinner was us talking about New York's awful traffic and How I Met Your Mother's sad finale.

I went up to my room and sighed. I looked at my bed and all I wanted to do was jump on it and never get off. But no , i had "reading" to do.

I looked at my uniform and sighed unzipping my skirt and pulling my t-shirt over my head.

I was standing in my room , in my underwear probably looking like an idiot. I kept zoning out and all i could think about was how i was ignoring everyone at school and how i missed the guy with the blonde mountain quiff.

'Where did i put my pijamas.' I sighed as i looked for them all over my room.

'OH MY GOD!' I heard a familiar voice say , making me scream.

'MARION?! EVERYTHING OKAY SWEETIE?' I heard my dad say.

I turned around as i saw my mirror and that stupid face was there again. But the only problem that i was half-naked.

I pulled the blanket off my bed and crossed my eyebrows.

'YEAH I JUST SAW A SPIDER , EVERYTHINGS OKAY.' I yelled to my dad that was at the end of the hallway.

'TURN IT OFF! TURN IT OFF! WE'LL TALK LATER!' I yelled at Luke as he had the funniest expression on his face.

'I dont know how to fucking turn it off! I dont even know i fucking turned it on!' He said smacking the mirror but he was still looking at me.

'Well atleast turn around!' I said trying my best not to laugh.

'Okay.. Okay.' He smirked making me laugh. 

I turned quickly around , getting dressed , excitement taking over. I had missed him so much.

'Okay , you can turn around.' I said as he slowly turned around smiling.

'I missed you so much.' Was the first thing that he said , it made my lungs hurt cause i couldn't breath.

'I missed you too , i missed you so so much.' I said shyly getting a toothly grin from him.

'So tell me Marion , why are you constantly busy at school.' He cocked his eyebrows in a funny way , causing me to giggle.

'Um , im gonna let you on a secret. Since we're seeing eachother in our reflections and shit you must be special. Um.. I ignore the people at school cause i dont feel like i can trust anyone?' I said ruffling my hair.

'Excuse me! You see me in your reflection , you should trust me!' He mocked a hurt expression.

'Well maybe you're an axe murderer!' I did this crazy things with my eyes also making him laugh.

'So we went surfing this week. Ashton is the only Australian that can surf between us.I mean I try to surf but I can't.So yeah , we went to The Hamptons. A two or three hour drive. Quite a nice place actually.' He coughed slightly.

'Oh i spend my summers there all the time. I met you in The Hamptons.' I blew my cheeks out his jaw slightly dropping.

'I was in Miami!' He laughed slightly me smiling. 

It never felt this good to talk about stupid things.

Holla the mirror shit is back {but there is a reason behind it...}

My mum keeps telling me to get out of the house but honestly I cant be bothered.
