Milo's Girl

✟22✟

Bri's POV:

I saw Catherine depressed, I really felt awful for her because, she adores Milo. When we were dismissed, I caught up to Catherine, "I'll go talk to Milo, for you." She grinned at me, "You will do that for me?" She asked. "Of course, I know how depressed you are about Milo and me too. I have identical feelings for him, and I don't want to loose Milo. I'm going to talk to him, okay?" Catherine hugged me, "Thank you Bri." I smiled, "Anything for you," I ran into the house and find him. "Hey, can we talk?" I asked Milo, "I guess so." He replied. I sat down next to him. "Um, are you okay?" I wondered, "No, I'm not okay. I feel different for some reason, I wish I want to see who I really was." Milo had a tear dripping down his eye. I looked worried, I hated Milo being sad. I wanted to help him--we all wanted to. I hugged him, when he shed to tears. "I know, I know how tough this is for you but, we are going to help you." I said calmly to him. "Thank you so much, I really needed somebody to comfort me." He responded happily.
Then, Gloria came to the basement. "What are you doing?" She asked, "I wanted to go talk to Milo," I replied. "Well, why are you hugging him, Bri? He's mine." Gloria snapped. "He was depressed and I wanted to comfort him. Why can't I help him?" I snapped back, "Well, you were never there for him, so I know what is best for him. I also know that who is right for him Bri, just leave." She was giving attitude to me. "She's fine, just leave her alone." Milo defended me. Gloria didn't say a word when Milo talked back at her. This was the first and last time I heard Milo talking to Gloria like that. Gloria went back downstairs, without saying a word. "Thank you Milo." I said, "That's nothing, she had no right to talk to you like that. And hey, how did you know my name?" Milo looked curious, "I known you before." I grinned, "What? How?" He questioned. "Well, for starters, we used to have 1st grade together and 3rd grade too." He laughed, "Aren't you Bri? Bri McHenrry?" I was surprised, "Yes, I am Bri McHerry! Are you Milo Jacobs?" I chuckled. "I think so." He chuckled. After a few minutes, I ran back outside.
When I went outside, all the kids were playing Crackle-Jack with Deputy and the other adults. I was relieved that everyone is not going to be sad all day. I got hit with the ball "Hey, you're out." Aaliyah chuckled.

Milo's POV:

I glared at everyone playing outside. I grinned and went outside. "Hey I wanna play!" I shouted with excitement. "Okay, you go first." A girl with nice black hair said to me. She threw me the ball and I hit Bri first, she got out. I ran with the others, then, this kid named "Dylan", was sticking out his tongue out so I threw the ball in his head and he fell hard to the ground. I ran to him, "Are you okay? I'm very sorry." I looked innocent, I didn't want to hurt anybody. "That's it, you failed the game you idiot." Ted said, hitting the back of his head. Everyone did. "You eat garbage!" A boy with blonde hair whispered in my ear. I was stubborn, "Alright guys, lunchtime, then, a 20 minute break." A lady with short hair responded.
I had lunch with the others, I sat alone. They all glared at me, "Why is Milo so different?" One of them wondered. They even giggled at me, I didn't say anything. Now, I realize that I am not what I used to be anymore.
