chapter 8: Don't Wish

Song: Don't Wish- Tonight Alive

_____________

Julia, Luke and Calum had come round to see me after school which I happily was thankful for. Mum had to go to work so before they came I was left to suffer by myself. Calum out of nowhere decided to make me mac and cheese which I gladly accepted. It was like holy food. So her we were, I was eating this holy food named Mac n' Cheese while my friends rummaged their way through my cupboards to find food and once they settled on their choice we argued about what programme to watch.

''You know me and Julia always win with Spongebob so you may as well quit while you're ahead guys.'' I sassed at Calum, while Luke already gave up, sighing, looking fed up at Calum.

''Luke gave up a long time ago once we even mentioned Spongebob. And you've watched ninja turtles like a billion million trillion times!'' Julia complained as Calum sighed.

''It's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles actually Julia, get it right. You would think after me forcing you to watch it for so long the name would be fried in to your brain.''

''I don't even pay attention to your turtles! I pay attention to -'' as if on cue, Luke and I both shouted at them both to shut up.

We decided to watch Spongebob finally, and then ninja turtles.

My mum came home just as everybody left. But as soon as she closed the door another knock was heard. I looked at my mum confused as she had the same look on her face. I told her I would answer it as she went upstairs. I opened the door, instantly rolling my eyes.

"Michael? What the hell do you want?" I raised my voice a little, pushing him out the door as I closed the door behind me so I mum couldn't hear us. I didn't want her saying anything to Michael.

"I just wanted to know..if you were alright..I mean, you weren't in school, so .. Yeah." He, for some odd reason, looked nervous as he scratched the back of his neck.

"And why in the gods name of balls would you honestly care?" I raised an eyebrow at him.

"Because.. I just..do."

"You expect me to believe you Michael? That's funny it really is." I laughed at him, putting my hand on the door handle to go back inside.

"Can't you just accept the fact I actually came in genuinely asking if you were alright?" He snapped at me. And for once I actually took in his words. But I knew better than to fall for his words like other girls.

"Why aren't you with Stacey?"

"Oh Jesus, I broke up with her two weeks ago. I hate her Blaze." For some reason, he had me convinced.

"I still don't get why you would care enough to come to my door asking if I'm okay because I wasn't in school today. If you must know, I threw up and just feel fucking awful in general. Is that a good enough answer for you Clifford?"

"Fine, don't appreciate my thoughtfulness for once! Don't you realise I've never done this for anyone! Like you said, I'm just interested in sex and drugs and alcohol. But.. I'm not actually like that. Cause you don't know me, I don't actually hate you Blaze! I know you hate me for so many understandable reasons, but I don't care! But I will change your mind." And with that he walked away with his hands in his pockets. I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion, slowly turning the door handle and going back inside.
