How Life Works

My name is Aphmau Phoenix. I may be only 15 years old but, I've been through more bad things than most people think.

Like the fact that I caught my ex- best friend flirting with my ex- crush right after I told her I liked him.

Also, the time I got bullied for 3 months for being an "ugly little orphan" like everyone called me. The worst part was, I believed them.

I was an outcast. No one would talk to me. Except Garroth. Back then, in the 7th grade, he was my only friend.

Garroth was the only one who didn't care if other people made fun of him for being around me.

The only person who didn't mind sneaking out of class, even though he could get in trouble, to comfort me while I cry on his shoulder.

He was the only person, at the time, who did care.

We were always friends. Hanging out, talking, laughing with each other during our classes together.

But that year, after everything that happened to me ended, I realized, we were closer than ever before.

I loved him.

I just didn't know how back then.

I used to think I loved him like a brother, or something like that.

I even remember the first time I said that I loved him. We were at my house. I was crying again that day so, he came over. I told him how I thought I loved him. He told me he would always be there for me. He also told me that he loved me back.

This year was going to be different though. I was going to confess my true feelings.

The feelings that would make me wonder "how life works."

A/N OMG!!! Wasn't that soooo cute!!! OK, and just to let everyone know, Garroth and Aphmau are the only people from MCD that are going to be in my story. It may come to a point in the story when I want MCD characters to be added but, I will make that decision in the future and I will definitely let you guys know. Just as a warning, I'm not promising dirty stuff not to happen so..... yeah. Anyways, thank you guys so much!! I really appreciate you guys liking my stories because, if you didn't know, it takes time and effort to write these stories. BAIII!!!! Natalie<3
