The Guy I Met At CVS

Chapter 15

*FLASHFORWARD*SNEAKPEEK*

"You've always been trying to find a way to push me away snd I wouldn't listen, but this time I'm doing what you asked. We're over. Don't worry you won't have to see my face anymore because I'm going back to school tomorrow. So I won't be bothering you anymore."

"You're suppossed to....I'm supposed.....We're supposed to have one more week together." Mark said panicking.

"I know about your plan. To let me go at the end of them summer. I go back to school and it's like a break but it's realy not. It's a break up. If you wanted to be with me you would fight to be with me. Don't worry about it. As soon as I'm done packing here I won't be bothering you anymore."

"Whaa-What do you mean by that?"

"I won't come back for break. That's what you want right? I'll fully dedicate myself to finding a man at school. Plenty of worthy bachelors."

"No! I don't--I mean yes that's what I wanted but..." he bowed his head ashamed

"Just go." she said angrily through clenched teeth but never raising her voice as he began to walk out the door. Just before he left the room she said lastly "Tell Brilynne I'll be by tomorrow to say goodbye to her."

His heart jumped and ached painfully in his chest and it felt as though something had caught in his throat. He nodded his head silently then left her house for the last time.

As soon as he left Molly's tough exterior deteriorated and she crumbled onto her bed in ragged tears. 

******************************************************************************

Mark chose to walk home rather than take the bus. He didn't want to share his current state of grief with anyone. It felt like the ongest walk ever. He thought about how he was going to break it to Brilynne that he had failed her yet again.

*FLASHBACK*FLASHBACK*FLASHBACK*

The next night all the guys walked into Tai's huge ass house and immediately felt small and like outcasts. Mark went in search of Molly and found her on the second floor on the dancefloor surround by people. He didn't know what to do or say he just turned around and went in search of a drink.

Alcohol, that was his friend. he knew he should stay away from it because it always got him in some type of trouble with the law but it didn't matter and it didn't matter that he'd been sober for 4 years now. he really needed too take the edge off.

As soon as the beer touched his tongue it was over, the thrill was back. He chugged three cups quickly then filled another and got on the dancefloor and grabbed some girl to dance with him, that wasn't Molly.

Greg saw him before Molly did and dragged him away from the girl he was dancing with and out to the porch

"What the fuck man?"

"Don't what the fuck man me! You're lucky it's just me and not Molly man. Are you crazy?!"

"I don't think you should be lecturing me. Plus I can do what I want. Don't you see all those guys dancing around her."

"But are they dancing on her?"

"Yes!?"

"Are you--have you been drinking? oh c'mon man I thought you were done with that stuff."

"I'm fine! Stop babying me!"

"You need someone to baby you because you can't take care of yourself and you won't listen to Luke and he's just trying to help! We're all just trying to help!"

"i don't need your help!"

"Yes you fuckin do and you don't see it. Wait here i'm gonna go get Molly. She'll talk some motherfuckin sense into you." he said already walking away but Mark just rolled his eyes. 

He was waiting until some girl, very sketchy but dark started to approach him. He was definitely Mark's type before when he was into the hardcore drugscene. 

"You tryna get high?"

"Always. What'dya got?"

"Follow me and find out." 

Mark followed the girl away from the spot Greg had told him to wait for him.

********************************************************

Greg approached Molly and she instantly saw him and she was completely wasted by now and she threw her hands up and jumped into his arms shouting his name.

If people didn't know any better they would thought Greg was her boyfriend.

"Greg! it's my birthday!"

"Happy birthday Molly!"

"Tank youuuuuU!" she slurred through puckered lips then kissed his cheek. "Where's my baby?"

"He's outside. He needs to talk to you." 

"Okie." she said and plopped down from him and followed him outside. She stumbled into many things but when she got outside he wasn't there. She heard Greg cuss "Shit!"

"Listen Greg, just relax and have a good time. Don't worry about Mark. I'm sure he'll turn up. Just let him have some fun and you better have some fun okay."

Greg nodded. He didn't wanna worry about Mark because if it was one thing he knew about his friend it was that he wouldn't fuck shit up on purpose and he always turned up either in a bush or the back of a cop car. He was hoping for the bush tonight seeing as Molly had lots of them.

********************************************************************

The party was getting a little to hot for Molly to stand and she'd just finished dancing with some guy to All Gold Everything which was her song because that's the song that basically made her name sooo damn popular. She just wanted to find Mark and take him to her room. She hadn't seen him all night. 

She stepped outside in her backyard to get some air when she saw a sight that shocked her to the core.
