The Nerd Marcel

Chapter 10

Alex's p.o.v

We walked in quietly, considering Marcel was still asleep. We sat in the chairs, and waited for him to wake up. I stared at his body, his nose looked so swollen, his jaw seemed to be a little out of place, and his chest lifted and fell in an uneasy pattern. Before I knew it is as crying, being held by Alison.

"It's alright, he's going to be ok" Alison cooed. I gasped for air and cried silently.

"It hurt too much to see Harry do that to him, it was like each blow that made contact with Marcel hurt me" I sobbed.

"Don't worry, he's ok" she sighed hugging me more. I nodded beginning to pull away.

"Alex" a familiar voice mumbled. My head shot straight to Marcel, who's eyes were slowly opening. I jumped to his side, finally seeing his green eyes. I let out an un intended cry before wrapping my arms around him. His arms wrapped around my neck before I looked at his face, kissing him.

"Ill go get the nurse and tell her Marcel's awake" Alison smiled. I nodded looking at her and back to Marcel who seemed to have seen a ghost as she walked out.

"Why is she here!?" He asked, truly terrified.

"I'm honestly not sure, she left her group and told me she's been hanging out with the wrong people and that was that, I was going to ask her what she meant once I calmed down but you woke up" I shrugged. He looked at me like if I just spoke some foreign language to him.

"She hates me, Harry probably sent her to hurt me more" he said.

"No she doesn't hate you, she told me you guys actually used to be friends" I explained. He stared at his hands, glaring.

"I think we can trust her-" I began.

"THE LAST TIME I TRUSTED HER SHE BETRAYED ME AND WENT TO HARRY" he shouted. I jumped, he had never yelled at me. I felt the tears build again, when someone else yelled at me I rolled my eyes but something about Marcel yelling at me made me feel like truly did do something wrong.

"I-Im s-sorry, I-I didn't know t-that bringing her was th-at bad of a decision" I stuttered, my eyes letting a few tears fall. His eyes instantly went soft, he grabbed my wrist to stop me from walking away and pulled me to him.

"I'm sorry, I just...something about having one of them here is scaring me I'm sorry Alex I didn't mean to yell" he cooed into my neck. I shakily sighed and nodded. I sat back in the chair waiting for Alison to come back, in pure silence.


Alison's p.o.v

"Excuse me Ma'am, Marcel Styles is up" I told her. She nodded thankful and I walked back. It kinda scared me that Marcel reacted so normally to being their, and made me feel guilty as though he would take me back as a friend again. I stopped at the door wanting to let them have a little more privacy, seeing Alex so hurt was very upsetting and a bit cute seeing how much she cared for him.

"THE LAST TIME I TRUSTED HER SHE BETRAYED ME AND WENT TO HARRY" Marcel shouted snapping me out of my thoughts. Well, seems like he isn't going to welcome me back anytime soon. I pressed an ear to the door trying to hear more, only hearing mumbles. I waited for a minute or two before everything went silent, I walked in hesitantly.

"Hey" I smiled to Marcel. He nodded, looking down.

"Marcel, Im so sorry for what I did to you I had no intention if doing so!" I wailed. He stared at me surprised for a second, then immediately to 'I don't believe you'.

"Then why did you?" He asked, scolding me. Alex stared at me, nodding.

"Harry. He told me that if I was to date Niall I had to hate you. I never did, but I had to for Niall. And now I left them because I know I'm with the wrong people...or was" I explained trailing off. He looked to the corner of his eye, staring at a cabinet. Processing everything through his head. Before looking at Alex.

"Do you trust her?" He asked Alex.

"Yes, I do" she said. He looked back at me and nodded. I sighed in relief sitting down next to Alex. After minutes Marcel fell asleep. Leaving me and Alex to talk.

"So are you guys really dating or are you lying to make Harry pissed?" I asked, regretting it once the words left my mouth. She looked at him so happily and with such love, why would I ask. She furrowed her eyebrows.

"I never lie" she said, looking at me intently.

"That's a good thing" I smiled, she nodded smiling. We stayed for a little while longer until the nurse came in to tell us we had to leave. Alex pecked a quick kiss on Marcel's forehead before walking out. We walked to the parking lot climbing into her car before driving to my house. We had spent an entire school day with Marcel in the hospital, I wonder how teachers will react tomorrow.

We pulled up at my house, Alex allowed me to step out of the car and walk to the front door before driving off. Leaving me alone to myself, having to explain my absence to my parents.


Alex's p.o.v

I pulled up to my house, stepping out of the car and into the warmth of my home. I walked to the kitchen, finding Marcel's plate in the sink along with mine from this morning before going to school. I trudged up the steps to the bathroom, peeling off my clothes and stepping into the shower. Trying to let the warmth of the shower take away my troubles, failing immensely. I wrapped the towel around myself walking to my room, pulling on my pajamas before climbing into bed. Wanting to end this day as soon as possible
