Just a nobody

Chapter 18

   Madi's P.O.V

   I sit in my room and continue to write a few more words. Marcel is leaving tomorrow and I'm going with to take him to the airport. I yawn and put my pen away. I stand up from my desk, when I suddenly hear something hit my window. I smile to myself knowing who was here and walk out to my balcony. It's lightly snowing. I look over the rail of my balcony to see a mess of curls, a pair of bright green eyes, and dimples. Marcel.

    "Hello, Romeo." I smile down at him.

   "Hello my beautiful Juliet." He says with a bright smile. "Can I come up?" He asks. I nod. He grabs a ladder from the side of my house and makes his way up. It's overwhelming how fast this week has gone by. Just last week he had only suggested the idea of auditioning. Now his dream is becoming a reality, and I'm extremely happy and excited for him. But deep down inside I wish it was still just a simple dream.

   He climbs over the rail and in an instant connects his lips with mine. I smile through the kiss but nearly break down because it's one of our last kisses. We split apart and just look into each other's eyes. That shimmering green that makes my love for him grow stronger. He takes my hand and leads me inside and shuts the balcony door.

   "I'm gonna go brush my teeth, just make yourself at home." I say. He plops down on my bed with a huge sigh. I giggle and walk into the bathroom.

    Marcel's P.O.VI stand up from the bed and look around. I've been in this room a billion times but I never had a good look around. Ok now I sound like a stalker. Anyway, I walk over to her desk and find a letter. My curiosity gets the best of me and I begin to read:

   Marcel, every day i've spent with you has been some of the best days of my life. I don't know if you realize it, but you've changed my life. You've taught me to never judge a book by it's cover even when I thought it was ok. Because inside that book is a whole new story. A whole new person.

   Whether you're wearing those big framed glasses i've grown to love, or if you're on stage around the world surrounded by screaming girls, I'll always love you Marcel. Always. I know the judges will love you. The whole world will love you. They'll steal you away from me. But i'll always love you.

                       Love, Madi.

   Ps. You'll always be a somebody in my world, even if i'm just a nobody in yours.

    The bathroom door opens, I put the letter back in it's place. Madi came out and greets lme with a smile. I smile back. She lies down on the bed and pats the spot next to her. I lie down next to her. We lay in a comfortable silence for a while. We stare into each others eyes. I push a strand of hair behind her ear.

   "Do you wanna play 20 questions again?" I ask her. "Sure." She says. "Alright, I'll start. What is your biggest fear?" I ask. She ponders the thought for a while before answering.

   "I'm afraid of losing you." She says in a soft whisper. "In a year from now...I don't want to be the last thing on your mind." I sigh and move closer to her. I press our foreheads together.

   "You're never going to be the last thing on my mind, Love. I promise I'll never ever forget about you. How could I forget the best thing that's ever happened to me?" She blushes and smiles.

   "You know prom's coming up in a few weeks." She mentioned.

   "Oh yeah. I was actually wanting to ask you about that." I said smiling.

   "What is it?" She asked knowingly.

   "Will you go to prom with me Madi?" I asked, smiling like an idiot. She nodded her head and whispered a simple 'yes'. I smiled.  "Then I guess i'll be coming back in a few weeks for prom." "Promise?" She asked.

   "I promise." I said.

    Madi's P.O.V Marcel leans down and kisses me. I kiss him back and wrap my arms around his neck. I run my fingers through his curls. He moves his lips down to my neck, his curls tickle my cheek. He then hovers over me and runs his cold hands under my shirt and up my back. He moves his lips back to mine. I break the kiss only for a second to lift his shirt over his head. He grabs the bottom of my shirt and slowly brings it over my head. He presses his forehead against mine and whispers the one phrase I never want to stop hearing. "I love you Madi." And I guess it's obvious what happened next.
