Chapter Five

~Marcel sits at the table eating his cereal contently as Gemma walks in flipping on the light in the kitchen, "morning" Marcel says, startling his older sister "oh my god, don't do that" she says, regaining her breath

Marcel laughs "you should've seen your face" he chuckles, "laugh all you want but karma's a bitch" she says before reaching into the fridge and grabbing the orange juice.

"Oh no, I'm so scared" Marcel chuckles "you should be" Gemma laughs before turning away to finish pouring the juice into a glass and returning upstairs.

~Marcel takes his usual seat in the back of the bus, sitting the furthest distance possible from his sister; her only command that he doesn't make it apparent to her friends that their related, or of the same species during school hours.

The seat beside him is the only one that remains empty of the twenty or so seats in the entire bus, he pulls his phone out of the pocket of his backpack and plugs his earbuds in, turns the volume up all the way and puts them into his ears, leaning back into the seat playing 'How to save a life' By The Frey and gazing out the window.

A familiar brown haired boy sits in the seat across from him, when Marcel looks up the boys head quickly turns the opposite way, peering out to the distance for a long time, avoiding potential eye contact.

Jake's stop comes up and as usual every girl's eyes are set on him as he walks, you could almost smell the desperation as he passes by, there was no doubt that he was attractive, but it amazed Marcel at how estrogen could lessen a girls IQ in a millisecond.

Marcel feels a tap on his shoulder, looking up he sees Louis, a shy smile on his face,"hi.." Marcel says, removing his earbuds "hey, do you mind if I sit by you? Jake wants to murder me and sitting alone makes me a bit of a target.." he says running a hand through his mesy fringe,Marcel moves closer to the window and nods "go for it" he shrugs and Louis slides into the seat next to him.

~ "okay,Coldplay or the Script?" Marcel asks, "hmm..they're both good but if I was to choose one I would easily choose The Script" Louis says,"favorite song?" "By The Script?" Louis takes a sip from his water bottle "Yeah" Marcel answers and Louis thinks a moment before shrugging, swallowing the mouthful of clear liquid "I can't choose just one.." Louis trails off shortly before regaining concentration, he goes on to talk about every song he could think of.

~The ride had went by so fast, a lot faster than Marcel wanted it to. Marcel had felt like he could talk to Louis forever,he was so calm, yet bubbly, he listened to every word that Marcel spoke and his thoughts seemed never ending which was just another thing that interested Marcel about Louis.
