Behind The Mask

True Friends

Days after Mia had the talk with Damian and Miguel, she finally decided to go back to school, after all that was real life, there was no hiding either protection from the darkness in the world.

Mia had a normal makeup day at school for all the days she was out of school. That day at lunch Damian and Miguel acted as if nothing had happened to make Mia feel better and forget about what had happened, but Mia knew what they were doing and decided to talk about it as she felt guilty about what she had said to them after all they were the only true friends she ever had and will have, "Guys Im sorry for what I said days ago", Damian and Miguel looked at her "Dont worry about it , we understand you were upset, plus it could have been any of us " Damian said, "Yeah dont worry about it , now hurry up tiny feet or we will be late for class, if I get one more tardy I will make you pay " said Miguel smiling while pushing Mia's head down ,"Ok lets go " .On their way to class Miguel kept playing around with Mia and running on the hallways, but when they pass next to the principal while she was watching Mia warned Miguel like she would always do and got Miguel to calm down so he wouldn't get in trouble again. Once they got to class Mia didn't want to be alone and sitted next to Miguel not caring that she could get in trouble as Miguel wouldn't stop talking loud and playing around. Time later class was finally over and Mia went trough what rested of the day without any trouble.

After school Mia and the guys decided to go to the park and hang out. Even tho Mia was smiling and laughing, Damian knew that Mia wasn't happy as she stood silent for the most of the time at the park. Time later Miguel had to go home and change, as his dad called him to go home as they were going to go fishing for the weekend after Miguel left, Mia and Damian were alone and Damian would finally get time alone with her to talk," Mia whats on your mind?" , Mia confused looking at him said "Why you want to know ?" Damian looking at her "I'm just worried about you and well... " Mia looking at him with a smile "Well what ?" Damian thinking what to say, Should I tell her about my feelings for her, we are alone now is the time, I must but... What if she doesn't feel the same ... Mia looking confused at Damain said "Well what tell me , you know that you can tell me anything " Damian finally coming back said "Well..." smiling "Well you are my best friend and I care about you, you mean the world to Miguel and I" Mia feeling better knowing that she truly had real true friend said "I know, both of you mean the world to me too", seeing that it was getting late Mia desided it was time to go home "It's getting late, lets go home" , Damian cheking the time agreed and took Mia home. "See you tomorrow D" Mia said, as Mia walked away Damian silently said "Goodbye... Only if you knew... I love you"...
