chapter 4

MEGAN'S POV

"Hiiiiii," I said awkwardly to the boy sitting by the table. He didn't look up, but simply waved me over, head still down reading a piece of paper.

But I didn't need to see his face. I could tell from the greasy dark-brown hair that I was in the right place. I was at my first tutoring session with Marcel. Oh joy...

"Can we just get on with this?" I whined to him. He was just sitting there reading. I wanted to get this over with as soon as I could.

He turned to look at me, and I saw sadness in his eyes. I instantly regretted my obnoxious tone, realizing that he probably hated this too. He looked almost upset that he had to even look at me.

"Listen Marcel, I know we've had a rough past, and I don't want to want to be here any more than you do," I stated, trying to loosen the tension. "But I have to get my grade up and you want to make some money, am I right?"

He nodded slowly, not meeting my eyes. I could see that his brow was furrowed beneath the thick frames of his glasses.

"So let's just get this over with, why don't we?" I sighed as he cleared his throat.

"Okay, Megan," he said, squeaking in that way that only nerds can. "Let's just start your lesson then."

We talked about math for a full hour. When the hour was over, I stood up and cleared my throat. That wasn't as awkward as I thought it would be. Maybe this wasn't going to be so bad after all.

"I really am sorry about how rude I was to you before..." I mumbled, referring to a couple years back when I had made fun of him in front of the few friends he had.

"And I'm sorry I fell in love with a slut," Marcel stated simply. My mouth dropped open.

"Whaaa..." I stuttered. I mouthed some words but said nothing else, only watching him. He packed up all his stuff, carefully stashing a notebook into a locked compartment of his laptop case.

"Goodbye," he called from the doorway. And he walked away without looking back.

****

Dangggg Marcel!! What would you do if you had to get a tutor? I think I would hire someone outside of school because I'd be way too embarrassed.

I hope you're liking this so far. I'm off shopping for the rest of the day! My bff and I took a road trip out-of-state for a shopping date!! I feel so grown up. I'll update when I get back...

I love all you beautiful darlings!
