The Long Journey Of Being Unwanted {Editing}

08

Mark
I wake up at 6 and get dressed. "Finally Friday." I smile to myself. I run downstairs and plop on the couch. I text Bree.

{Me}: Good morning Beautiful. <3

{Baby Girl}: Mark it's freaking 6 in the morning! I need my beauty sleep.

{Me}: You don't need beauty sleep you are already beautiful ;)

{Baby Girl}: Fine then I need to sleep.

{Me}: Lol sorry. I love you Baby girl.

{Baby Girl}: I love you too Markus.

{Me}: IT'S MARK!

{Baby Girl}: Calm down! I love you Mark Christopher Thomas

[Me}: ughh. You are so lucky I love you.

I turn off my phone after checking the time. I walk to the garage and grab my bike and ride to school. When I get there Alexi greets me. 

"Aww. Mark is here without Bree. Again" She laughs. I roll my eyes. "Poor Marky." I walk past her. 

"Aww. Mark I thought we were friends." She fake pouts. 

"Like I would want to be friends with a stuck up brat." I say walking to my locker. She scoffs. 

"I don't want to be friends with a nerd." She says trying to come up with a comeback. 

"Last time I checked you loved a nerd." I laugh. She rolls her eyes and walks away. Then a girl walks up to me. 

"Hi. I'm Sierra. I'm new and I was wondering if you could help me. This school is so big and I can't find my first class." She sighs. 

"Yeah totally." I smile looking at her. She hands me her schedule. 

"We have all but 4 classes together." I smile. 

"Great." She winks. I look at her confused. 

"Sorry. I have a medical condition. I wink and blink a lot." She sighs. 

"It's fine." I laugh. I walk with her to first period, and second, and lunch, and fourth. At the end of the day she meets me by my locker. 

"Thank you so much for showing me around." She smiles. 

"No problem." I smile. 

"So what are you doing after school?" 

"Checking on my girlfriend who is in the hospital." I sigh. 

"Oh. Is she okay?" 

"Yeah. She's getting out today." I smile at the thought of her coming back to school on Monday. 

"Oh cool. Why was she in the hospital?" She asks as we both walk to the bike rack in the back of the school. 

"A girl pushed her to the floor and she passed out." I sigh replaying the moment in my mind. 

"Oh." She sighs. When we get to the bike rack she grabs her bike and I grab mine. 

"Bye Mark." She smiles. 

"Bye Sierra." I smile and ride to the hospital. When I get to Breeland's room she looks at me with a sad look. 

"What's wrong?" I ask sitting next to her. 

"Alexi sent me a picture . Of you and a girl." She says looking at me. 

"Oh Sierra. She was new and I was showing her around. You two would get along so well." I smile. 

"Alexi said you were cheating." She says. 

"I would never." I say offended that she thought I would cheat. 

"Sorry." She sighs. 

"It's fine." I laugh. 

"So Sierra huh?" She asks. 

"You and her would be the best of friends. You both do dance." I smile. 

"Can't wait to meet her." She weakly smiles. 

"Bree I'm not cheating. I would never cheat." I smile squeezing her hand. She smiles. 

"Which reminds me." I smile going through my back pack. I pull out a small box and give it to her. 

"What is this?" She asks. 

"Just a little get well soon gift." I smile. 

"Mark. You didn't have to get me anything. I'm literally fine." She laughs. 

"Just open it." I laugh. She smiles and opens the box. 

"This is beautiful." She smiles taking out the necklace. It was a sterling silver chain with a sterling silver heart charm. I put it on for her. 

"Thank you." She smiles. 

"I love you." I smile back. 

"I love you too." We talk for about 2 hours until the doctor says she can go home. Then we go to my bike and she hops on the pegs. We ride to her house and she shows me some gymnastics skills she wants to master and we just have fun. Then I go home and sleep. I wake up to a text message.
