Changing Marcel(On Hold)

Chapter 3: New Style

The Next Day At School

Marcel's P.O.V

********

I wonder how awkward it will be when I see Mandy today. Would she even talk to me? I mean we didn't fight or anything.. Maybe I should try talking to her instead..

I'm on time for class as usual when Whitney and Mandy sit down they aren't friends they just sat down at the same time. Whitney smiled awkwardly at me and said hi. Mandy right away got to work. I knew she knew what she was doing. Class was quiet and awkward. Whitney didn't talk to me at all. After she finished her work she went to sit with some other girl. Mandy left too when she was done. It was just me and some guy that I don't know.

"So you're Marcel huh." He said. Why is he talking to me?

"Yeah, why..?" I asked back uneasily.

"You were at Mandy's house last night too huh?" What's with all the questions.

"Why are you asking all this?" I snapped back.

"Cause apparently Brad broke up with her lat night because she kissed you. Now she's upset because you don't like her back." I can't believe this is happening. Everybody knows about what happened yesterday.

I just kind of stared a bit at the ground. What am I supposed to say? I looked back up at the guy. Then looked to the side of me when I saw Mandy looking back at me. She quickly looked away and started talking to the girl she was sitting by. Could it really be true? Could Mandy really like me? Or was it some kind of joke? I hate being picked on and believe me that happens a lot..

"Dude?" I saw a hand wave in front of me while I was thinking about Mandy.

I looked at the guy sitting next to me and smiled a little. "Sorry I was just thinking about something."

The guy chuckled and went back to writing whatever he was writing on his paper. He didn't seem to be lying. I'm not sure whether or not I could believe him. Every bully is different..The bell rang and I decided at catch up to Mandy and talk to her

"Mandy, is what you said, yesterday true? Do you like me? I asked nervously.

"Yes Marcel. I really do." My heart stopped. This is just incredible.

I couldn't help but smile. She smiled too but I wasn't sure if it was because she liked me or if it was because I looked funny.

But then suddenly my smile faded as I thought for a moment. "Why do you like me?"

She thought for a moment before saying, "I don't know. I guess because I just do."

This made me think she was lying. She doesn't know why she likes me. I know why I like her.

"Marcel do you like me back?" She suddenly asked.

"Y-yeah of course I like you back." I half smiled.

"Then why did you pull away when we kissed yesterday?"

"Because it felt too good to be true.."

"Well Marcel, it is true." She grabbed my hand and held it tight. It felt....comforting. "Trust me when I say I really do like you Marcel, please trust me."

"I trust you."

"Good. Then do you wanna be my boyfriend...?" What?! I've never had a girlfriend. I'm freaking out in my head but on the outside I'm just standing here looking into her eyes.

"Y-yes I do." She had a big smile on her face. Then she kissed me on the cheek.

"Cool! Meet me at the mall right after school okay?! Here's my number." We swopped phones and put our numbers in. then after she walked away. I just walked awkwardly to my next class.
