Wake Up Call (English) #Wattys2016

The Premiere; Part 2

Throughout the play, there was only one place I was able to look and that got my attention. It was the empty chair in the front row where he was supposed to be. Where he was supposed to be sitting and supported me ...

Right next to the empty seat was Brian and smiled and clapped for me, he probably thought I looked at him ... Something I did several times, but I was mostly looking at the empty seat next to him...

"I didn't like the love scene, I was awful in that ..." I said while I went into my wardrobe after the premiere.

"You were great, Alexis !!" Said Brian as he came walking into my wardrobe myself, I turned to him and smiled briefly.

"Thanks ..." I said, he put his hands on my hips and pulled me against him gently and put his lips against mine.

I put my hands around his neck and pushed him against me. I heard the door being opened and saw a shadow walk into the room and stopped, but I didn't care to check who it was. It was probably just Stacy, after a while I let go of the kiss and looked into the eyes of Brian with a smile. He smiled back and kissed me once more before he turned to the shadow who'd walked in and got a surprised look, I turned toward the shadow myself and was shocked.

He looked at me with big eyes, he held a bouquet of flowers in his hand and met my gaze.

"Marshall ..." I said and took a step forward, he took a step back and his eyes went cold.

"The plane was canceled, so I drove here." He said, he drove all the way here? "That's why I'm late." He looked over at Brian before he looked at me. "Here ..." He gave me the bouquet, but took the envelope that was lying in it out first.

"Marshall, I---"

"I'll leave you guys to it ..." he said and walked out, I turned to Brian. He met my gaze and just nodded before he fell down on the couch quietly.

"Brian?" I said, he looked up at me. "I love you." Wait what? WHAT DID I SAY?! WHAT HAPPENED!? WHAT?! NO!? DO I?! I DON'T RIGHT ?! WHAT ABOUT MARSHALL !? Brian looked at me with big eyes and smiled at me.

"I love you too." He said, smiling at me easily, I nodded and walked out of the room. Marshall was far ahead of me in the hallway, I lifted my dress slightly and ran to him.

"Marshall!" I cried, he turned his head towards me halfway without stopping. "Marshall, please! Stop !!" I cried, suddenly he stopped and turned to me. It happened so quickly that I fell right into his chest as I was stopping myself. I looked up at him with big eyes and laid my arms around him while I pressed my face into his chest. "Don't go ... I don't want you to leave like that ... Please ..." I sobbed, he said nothing and exhaled hard. "I thought you wouldn't show up, and Brian did. He showed up, but he didn't give me flowers ..." I sniffled. "What did the letter say?" I asked.

"N-Nothing." He said. "Nothing important." He gently pushed me away from him and met my gaze. "I, uhm ..."

"Please, I can tell it's something important ... Let me read it, Marshall!" I said and sniffled loudly, he shook his head.

"It won't change anything, Alex!" He said, turning his back towards me. I put my arms around his waist from behind and leaned my head against his back.

"Let me see it ... Please ..." I asked and he turned toward me. He met my gaze.

"No. Okay, whitegirl?" He said, oh-oh ... The way he said it made me feel really friendzoned for one reason or another. "I'm gonna leave ..." he said and walked away from me, he stopped for a while but continued to walk again.

"Marshall! Don't leave me !!" I cried as I felt Brian's arms around me from behind. Marshall turned to me again, and his eyes went cold as soon as he saw Brian behind me, but warm again when he met my gaze.

"Never, never leaving you ..." he said and turned away from me and walked away. I looked down at the ground as Brian tapped me on the shoulder, I looked up at Marshall down the hall. "I love you, okay!" He cried, and I saw tears running down his cheeks. That's when I felt something strange ... "I hate it, but I fucking do!" He said and pulled the hood over his head as he stormed away.

The strange thing I felt ... Wasn't love ...

Oh God ...

Marshall's in my friendzone ...
