My Psycho Friend

5. Unwelcomed Weirdo

** 

Chap 5:

Everywhere I went I couldn't stop feeling paranoid. I couldn't help feeling that soon 'The Psycho' would come up to me.

I shook the thoughts out of my head and put books in my locker.

He just wants to be friends, he wont hurt you. My mind tried to soothe my anxious feelings.

I tried to shake the thoughts out of my head.

"Hey."

I jumped as Adam approached me, poking my sides.

"Adam! Don't do that!" I said, trying to suppress my heart from beating so fast.

"Sorry." He said, chuckling. "Didn't think that would scare you."

"Well it did! So don't do it again." I hissed.

"You never texted or called me back." He said, changing the subject.

"My.. My phone died." I said truthfully.

It died when I needed it the most. That would only happen to me... And those victims in scary movies that would soon be chopped to pieces.

"Well I thought you didn't answer back because I thought you were mad at me."

"For what?" I asked, truly curious.

"About Stephanie and her party. I forgot how you don't really like her that much. I'm sorry, I didn't realize it until last night." He said sincerely.

"Ohh... That." In all honesty I completely forgot about how I was mad at him for the fact that he really seemed like he wanted to go to her party.

I had a lot on my plate yesterday. But since its being brought up now. I am still a little peeved that he wanted to go to her party. Really... really badly. Was I overreacting?

"Wait so you're mad at me?" Adam asked in disbelief.

"What makes you think that?" I asked, avoiding eye contact, and messing with stuff in my locker.

"Ohh... That." He repeated what I had said in the same tone that I had said it in.

"I'm not mad. Just... I'm not mad, okay?" I said turning to him.

"Sure you're not. I gotta get to class, talk to me when you've stopped being mad." Adam said in a bitter tone, then walked away.

Uh!

"Wow. That was entertaining."

I froze. I could hear their steps moving closer. "Wouldn't you say so?" He asked in my ear. I flinched away. I hesitantly turned to face him.

His blue eyes looked at me. He was leaning on the locker next to mine with his arms crossed, looking laid back.

"You look like you've seen a ghost." He said amused.

I'll be a ghost pretty soon!

I couldn't say anything. I was too scared.

"Hello? You there Sunshine?" He asked waving a hand in front of me.

Ohh... I was here alright. And I wanted out.

"I-I gotta go. I gotta get to class." I said. I quickly closed my locker and was about to walk off but he stopped me.

"So soon?" He asked, with a fake pout. "I need help finding my classes. And... I was hoping you'd help me." He said smiling, showing his pearly whites.

"Uhm... just go to the office. They'll help you." I said, starting to walk off again.

"What class do you have next?" He asked catching up to me.
