Me, and Everyone Else

Part 7

'Things can't always be like the stories people write about the bad boy and the shy, loner girl who has no friends, but I guess it can sometimes be that way. But unfortunately this is not where this story ends. Because it would be fair to people who are hearing my story. Now this is the day Brandon, and I finally reveal our true feelings.'

I walk down the hallway avoiding everyone in sight. 'That dumba** was running around telling everyone about us, like we were some kind of.... anyway I can't believe this is happening.'

"You can't believe whats happening?" I jump and turn to see Mads laughing at me. I glare at her and fix my posture.

"I can't believe that he and I are.."

"Dating? High School Sweethearts? Lovers?" She raises her eyebrow, and nudges me on the side.

"First of all, OW! And secondly were not lovers, were just dating. Besides who knows how long it'll last. Will it be forever? Will he be the ONE? Will he crush my soul, and break my heart? Maybe. All I know is this is completely new to me. I don't think I can handle this much pressure." I feel the walls around us closing in. Next thing I know I'm looking the opposite direction, and the left side of my face stung. I look back at Madison.

"You need to calm down. Get a hold of yourself." By this time she was shaking me around, like a rag doll. Then I realized what I was doing.

"Yeah your right. Taylor Becket doesn't freak out. Thanks for that I needed it." I say as I rub my face. "But did your really need that much force." She shrugs her shoulders. We start waking again and as I turned around the corner. As soon as I turned my head to glare at her I bump into something. I look up, and see a green-eyed, blond-haired guy who looked younger than me.

"Oh I apologize, miss" He says taking a hold of my hand, and placing his lips on it. I feel all eyes on me, but I couldn't move. 'Crap what if Brandon sees.' I quickly pull away.

"N-no its fine. No harm done." I then look around cautiously. When I don't see him I sigh with relief. "Thank god." Suddenly I'm pulled from behind by my waist.

"Is there a problem here Taylor-tot?" I hear from behind me, then I hear stifled laughter. I look to see Madison looking away.

"Where did you come from? You're like a stalker." He ignores my words, and his eyes are staring straight in front of me. 'If only looks could kill.' I give a awkward laugh for this awkward situation. "Oh look at the time let's go." I start walking away. I look behind me to see everyone standing in the same place. I sigh and walk back. "He didn't mean any harm, Brando-"

"Like hell." He continues glaring at the guy whose name I don't even know. I reach for his hand and they were warm. He still doesn't move. "Go Taylor. I'll talk to you later."

"Whats the problem, Brandon? Getting scared are we?" The guy says giving a sinister kind of smile. I feel my hand getting crushed by his hand.

"Brandon that hurts." He ignores me. "Brandon let go. I'm being serious let go!" He looks at me as I pull away. "What the hell is wrong with you? I said you were hurting my hand, you idiot." I hold my arm feeling the pain shooting up my arm.

"I'm....let me see" He moves closer, and gently takes my hand. "I'm sorry, I wasn't thinking." I give him a smile, and punch him in the arm.

"Nah it's cool. You didn't realize it." I say as I hug him. I feel him tense up, and I laugh. "Let's go before I kick your a**, you big softie." I pull him along with Madison. We walk for a bit before I look back and stop, they look back at me with worried looks, mostly Mads. I nod for her to go on, and she nods back.

"Whats wrong?" He asks walking back to me. I cross my arms.

"Don't act like you don't know. Who was that guy?" I ask feeling confused. He look away with a bore look.
