'I walked down the hall to school, I had no friends and I'm failing every subject. I looked up and I saw Marcel and a girl, obviously his crush. I see them talking and then they lean in for a kiss. I covered my eyes so I don't have to watch this, but it felt like they've been kissing for 10 minutes. I scream but no sound would come out. I tried to rip each other apart, but it was like they were glued to each other. There was nothing left to do so I started crying right on the hallway floor. Everyone in the hallway pointed and laughed at me.'
I woke up breathing heavily and sweating like crazy. What a nightmare! Thank God it wasn't real. I noticed the sun peeking out of the windows. I fell asleep after I bawled about Marcel? Oh great. I felt my cheeks and yup, there they were, dry tear stains. I got up and walked down the hall to the bathroom.
I took one look in the mirror and I was disgusted. Strands of hair were sticking out of my ponytail, my mascara streaked my cheeks, and my dry tear stains were very noticeable. I guess I didn't realize that my mascara wasn't waterproof and this happened, but who would care about mascara during a situation like that. Then it hit me again, Marcel liked someone else. I remembered what he said last night, "She's so beautiful and friendly, and as your 'friend' I need you to help". My heart just starts aching when I hear the word 'friend'. I didn't want to be "just friends", but I couldn't tell Marcel that.
I got dressed in an aqua blue tank top that said "Deal With It", a black pair of high-waisted shorts, and my old pair of black converse. I looked at the clock and it was 7:27, so I had no time for breakfast. I grabbed a granola bar from the kitchen and walked out the door. I walked down a couple blocks to school. Some people tried to talk to me like Laura or Sarah, but I didn't feel like talking. I honestly felt like shit.
I walked two doors down on my left and there I was, Room 102: Mr. Garrett's class. I walked in and there he was, Marcel. This is going to be a long day.
