The perks of being an outcast

I should have been there for you

Lauren's POV

My alarm went off playing Rush by At Sunset. I love that song like a lot but I hate waking up early for peasant school. I really wish I could fake being sick but mum would see right through me. If the peasants say stuff like that to the queen on the internet what will they say to me in person.

I walked through the gates scared as shit. Then I saw Brock running up to me, god he is so cute. He picked me up and spun me around. We have known each other for the shortest time but I feel like it has been forever.

"I'm so sorry I just freaked out last night," he seemed so sad about it. All he did was not be able to talk why was he so concered that I was mad. I leant in to hug him and then he got a weird look on his face. What is going on?

"What are these?" he said pointing to the 5 cuts on my wrist. He looked like he could cry.

"I'm sorry Brock I was just...it felt so good," I said literally bawling my eyes out into his shirt. I felt terrible, why did I do this? 

"Oh my god I should have been there. I should have talked to you but I wasn't," he said and he was crying at this point. I wanted to run away there and then. I hurt someone I care about. I'm a terrible person.

"I shouldnt have done it i'm a terrible person," I said wrapping my arms around him tightly. I didn't want to let go.

"After all this I thinking skipping class is in order," He said giving that cheeing grin I just love.

We walked onto the oval where Brock had laid out a picnic. This was so cute, he handed me a note that said "will you be my girlfriend. I believe that if you find someone you have a connection with you should just go for it" Oh my god, he is so freaking cute.

"Yes, Yes a million times yes," I said while hugging him so tightly. So I can now call Brock my boyfriend. I'm actually in a relationship. Screw you peasants who would always say I will never find love. I stared into his gorgeous eyes, they were like a dream. To think I have only just met him but even I could tell there was something between us. It's weird to think 10 minutes ago I was feeling extremely sad and now i'm over the moon. It's kinda funny how a boy can change your mood like that.
