Realizing Each Other's Love

Chapter 9

Marie's P.O.V.

       Today was Monday. I hated Mondays, as much as everyone else did. Maybe even more. I hate waking up early and having to be at school early. When I woke up this morning, Gwen texted me saying she needed to go to the school early to work on a project for one of her classes and since she is my ride, I have to go with her.

       I had to get ready quicker than usual bcause Gwen was picking me up earlier than usual. I put on a 'I tired to look good today, but I was to tired to fully care,' outfit, put make-up on, so I don't look dead and then got a quick breakfast. Right as I was putting my shoes on, there was a car honk outside. I ran out the door and ran to Gwen's car.

       "What took you so long?" Gwen asked.

        "Right as you honked, I opened the door. Geez girl, calm down will ya. We are already early to school. You will have enough time to work on your project." I said as Gwen sped to the school. "GWEN STOP SPEEDING WE COULD GET PULLED OVER!!!!" I yelled at her.

         "Calm down, we are not going to get caught." Gwen said as we were pulling into the school's parking lot. I was opening my door, when Gwen came around to my side and pulled me to the back of the school, where the football field is.

         "Gwen I thought you needed to work on a project. And in order to that, we have to go to the library." I told, very confused on why we are going to the football field.

         "Well I sort of lied to you. I don't have any projects to work on, but there is something I want you to see." Gwen kept on pulling me to the football field.

         "Gwen, I could have slept more and have put on some more decent clothes. And also try to look good today." I complained to her.

         "Just come on. You look perfect." we got to the football field and there was a whole bunch of football players, including Dustin and Isaac standing and waiting. I wonder if they are waiting for us?

         "Gwen, Marie, you made it." Isaac said. Then all of the football players who were standing in a line lifted up their shirt. Each one had a word on it 'Maire, will you be my girlfriend?' then Dustin on the end with a question mark. I stood there shocked. I gasp and put my hand up to my mouth in surprise. I couldn't move or speak. 

         'Was Dustin really asking me to be his girlfriend. The last time I had a boyfriend was with Timmy. I don't know if I can trust another guy.' I thought to myself. I was starting to panic a little.

         I must have been looking at Dustin for a while because everyone was now looking at me waiting for my answer. I did all I could do. I turned around and ran towards the school. I didn't know where I was going, but I needed to go think some things out first.
