And I Fell, Well More Jumped

Adorable Idiots and Hopeless Thoughts

The next morning we were woken up by a knock on the window, followed by a bang and a crash. I jumped up, ready to whack whoever was breaking in with... a teddy bear. All I heard was laughter, David, and Evan crawled through my window. "We decided to bring you some coffee and donuts, so we can have some breakfast together." Trinity jumped up and grabbed her coffee, david handed me mine. We all sat on my bed, Trinity leaning on Evan, and David and I sitting really close. We munched on our donuts and talked about little things. David got up and tried to act out a scene from Lord of The Rings, which ended in him on the ground, and all of us laughing.

The next day was Sunday, so I had to take Trinity home. David acts almost like i'm a kid, he offered to drive Trinity and I to her house, I got a little rude, and told him I could handle it, that I could drive on my own, and my car worked perfectly well. "Why'd you snap at David like that?" "I honestly don't know, he just, sometimes he's too overbearing." "Are you freaking kidding me? I mean, I know he's a bit much at times, but come on, he's smart, funny, attractive, and totally into you. So what's the real problem? You know you can tell me Alex."

"The truth is, i'm not sure, once he knows about Mackenzie, and how i've started to feel the way she did, before you know. I just, and what if he think i'm annoying once we start going to school together." "Alex, listen to me, I know how you are, and i've had to deal with all the crazy stuff you've done, and honestly I would never want you to change, and I never want to lose you. You are my best friend, and Alex, I love you, like a lot, you idiot." She said, using her sarcastic tone for parts of it, and when we hugged she stole my phone. I didn't realize she had it for a while, so she ended up telling David we needed to talk if we ever wanted to become serious, and he of course said he would pick me up at my house.

I took an extra long route to my (new) house, so when I finally got there David was inside pacing around, I didn't realize my phone had died, and my mom was asleep on the couch, how typical. I walked up to David, grabbed his hand, and walked with him to the car, once we got inside the car I looked at David, and almost started balling. He wiped the single tear that escaped away from my face and asked me what's wrong. I explained everything I told Trinity to him, and told him about Mackenzie, then sat there and waited.

We sat there in silence for a few minutes, then he looked at me with this sad look on his face and said the two words I would hate to hear pass through anyone else's lips. "I'm sorry." Those two words made me burst into tears, he just sat there, and waited for it to pass, holding my hand the whole time. Then I showed him the one thing I had never shown anyone, not even Trinity. I showed him the scars, across my stomach, my waist, and my arms. He gave me the most upset/furious look, and then it was my turn to say "I'm sorry." That's all i said, as I sat there and waited for him to yell at me, tell my I was stupid, call me any of the names I'd heard a thousand times before.

Instead he just started driving, him not talking was worse then him screaming. I pulled my sleeves down farther, and did my best to hide my face. I didn't want to let him see me crying, not again. I had already shown him to much, and now thanks to me being too trusting, I was about to lose the boy I had fallen in love with. Even though it had only been about a week and a half. I don't know when I first fell for him, but I did, and now I was about to pay the price, for falling in love with a popular boy, and believing he might just feel the same way.

When he dropped me off at my house, he didn't say anything, just waited until I got up to my house, then drove off. I grabbed my car keys from inside, wrote my mom a quick note, and just drove. At some point at I must have run out of tears, because I sat in that front seat, driving, yet not quite in the car, Physically I was there, Mentally I was back at the day I first met David, and then I was watching the chair fall, as Mackenzie fell with it, only to have the rope catch her neck. Then I went blank, I felt nothing at all. So I drove and drove, until I just got too tired, then I pulled over on the side of the road, rolled up the windows, locked the car, and fell asleep. 

*Authors Notes*

So alot happened in this part. I think i'm gonna take a break from publishing all these parts, because i've done like 5 within one school day. I might write a whole story about Mackenzie, and what happened there. I'm not sure though. Alright, hope you enjoyed this so far.
