The Crazy Life of Mine

Days of All Emotions

**beeeep**beeeep** I turn off the alarm and get into the nice warm shower that my mom turned on for me. I put my hair up in a bun so my hair won't get wet. Once I get out I put on some jeans with a cute brown belt and a high low shirt. I redo my hair putting it back into a bun and put some makeup on, but only mascara and eyeliner and a little of blush.

I walk down and grab some lunch money. I decide to skip breakfast and walk to school. I head out the door, telling my mom goodbye.I want to get through the day pretty fast.

"Zoey!" I hear, but it's far away. I look behind me and I see Brayden. He's running now. I just keep walking. "Zoey" he puts a hand on my shoulder and spins me around. I look to the side, not wanting to look at his face. "I'm sorry." I get a hug from him. I put my hands on his chest and pull away. "what are you doing?" He lets me go. "I'm trying to do anything I can to make you feel better." He says softly. "Well you aren't helping! Why when I left, did the music keep playing?" I yell angrily. "I-I don't know." He says softly. "Why when I left, you didn't come for me?" "I thought you wanted to be alone, I thought you didn't want me there." "You drove me there! You had the car! And is that what you think? A girl needs a guy to comfort them!" "I'm sorry! I didn't know--"exactly. If you don't know what a girl needs, you don't need one. That's why you don't need me. And I don't need you." I walk off with tears down my face.

When I get to school, I see Ashley right away. "Hey are you ok-- "do you still like Brayden? because if you do, he's all yours." then I walk away. I walk to English. I get there 20 minutes early so I just end up watching the wall. "Hey. You okay?" I turn around to see mason. "Brayden and I broke up, well we weren't dating but you know what I mean." "Ug. Well Brayden was fine after you left. Me and Ashley stopped the song and was concerned but everyone started the dancing back up." "Uh, what did Brayden do?.." "He got with a group of friends.. Sorry." I looked down, thinking of why he would do that."how are you and Ashley?" "We are good friends. well I got to get to class. I do care about you. If you need anything. Anything, come to me."

That was weird but at least he cares. He starting to be really nice to me. Ashley just walked in. "hey. After what Brayden did to you, I don't like him." "Sorry what I said. I just got done with brayden. How are you and Mason?" I ask, trying to get her mind off of Brayden. "I don't know. I like him. Do you think he likes me?" I thought about what Mason said. 'Good friends, he cares about me, I don't know about that. "I really don't know!" She frowns. "Good morning class! We are going to go over figurative language."

I don't see Brayden all day, which was what I was wanting.

I was walking down the hall, when I saw a flier on the ground. 'Sign up for theater arts!' I love acting, if you don't know that. I go to the office and sign up for it. I walk down to the Theater arts room finding a lot of people there. I see partners auditioning. I guess I have to find a partner. I look around and find mason by him self also looking for a partner. I catch his eye and wave. We walk up to each other with a small script that we have to memorize. It was pretty easy. Just a page and we are done. We start to go over the script until we are called up.

(Me-Lilly Mason-Dillon)

Lilly- don't you just love the flowers?

Dillon- I don't like the purple ones. Haha!

Lilly-those are my favorite!

Dillon-*picks purple flowers* well you'll have to come and get it!

*Lilly trips and scraps knee and starts to cry.* ow! My knee is bleeding!

Dillon- hold on, I'll go get mom. *runs off stage*

Lilly- why does this happen to me?

Dillon- *runs back on stage* I couldn't find mom but I found a magically

power that will heel it.

Lilly- stop it! Hahaha!

*both runs off stage laughing*

We come back to the middle of the stage with a curious smile. "That scene was.. Awesome! Y'all are the best together! Y'all are on!" She checks us off and we leave the room.

"Yay! We are in! You were awesome!" He says. "You too!" I say back, smiling. "do you mind if I drop something off in my locker real quick?" I ask. "Sure!" We just have regular conversations there. Once I get there, I open my locker and put my books in. Mason and I are looking at a funny picture on my phone when I shut it. "Zoey." I jump back, because I really didn't think Brayden was going to be standing there. "Are we still friends?" He asks in a steady voice. I stutter because I didn't know what we were. I look at Mason but he just stares at Brayden. "I-I don't know." **buzz**buzz** I watch mason pull out his phone. "Gotta take this." He walks away. I look down. "I didn't mean any of that to happen. The chocolate fountain, me laughing, and everything else." He lifts my chin to where I'm facing him. I back up, out of his reach. "I really forgot about all that. It's how you never came for me. It's how you let me go and you didn't care. It's how the music kept going like nothing happened. It's how you chose your friends other than me. It's how you loved yourself more." He looked shocked but sorry at the same time. Brayden grabbed my wrists and squeezed,"I never meant this, I want you, I love you. I don't want to let you go." "Brayden, your hurting me." I say softly. Brayden quickly lets go and starts to back up. "Everything I do to you I hurt. I'm sorry."

Then he walks away.
