(Mickey comes in later. I just to inform you about him. Mickey was the kind of guy you could run to in any situation and he'd be waiting with open arms.)

 Mickey had moved with his dad to Arkansas after his parents had filed for divorcee in 5th grade. He followed me on Instagram so i did a little snooping. Mickey used to bully me. A LOT. I used to call him names and one time he pushed me and he was bigger than i was. I didn't do anything I just laid there, while he beat me. We were in 5th grade. It's not like we were over 18. He still scared me. 

I was informed he moved back to Indiana but i wasn't for sure. I rode my skateboard to the frozen yogurt place in town. It was easily 80 or 90 outside. I had high waisted jean shorts on with a white graffiti crop top and a pinkish flannel wrapped around my waist. Of course with my normal black converse on

I was craving cake batter fro yo. I walked in said hello to Marty (the owner) he had saw me walking up and had already had it ready. I thanked him and payed him. I went outside to sit on the balcony to eat like i usually do when i go to sit in my normal spot to find this SUPER attractive guy sitting in my seat. I was about to just walk away when i thought to myself, holy shit! Is-is that? Noooo he moved in 5th grade. He looked up and i realized i had been staring. 

Mickey- "Meghan?"

Me- -turns around and starts fastly walking away- 

i heard the chair scoot out so i grabbed my skateboard and started riding to the park which was about 1/2 a mile away. I heard him yelling my name so i glanced back to see him about 20 feet away on a longboard as well. I gasped and sped up. I saw a short cut and took it. I started freaking out. The last time i saw him was when he beat the living shit out of me in 5th grade. I was scared for my life. What if he was mad i told the principal and he got expelled? What if he wanted to teach me a lesson because i told on him? All i could feel was anxiety. Before i knew it i was at the park. I rode all the way until i got to the skate park. Of course no one was there. I stopped to breathe and he was right behind me screaming my name.

Mickey- "Meghan i just want to talk wait up."  

Me- "what do you want?"

Mickey- "I just want to talk. Im not gonna hurt you."

I was so scared i started shaking. 

Me- "Why do you want to talk? Why are you even back here?"

Mickey- "I want to apologize for beating you up in 5th grade. That wasn't right of me. I've changed. Just let me prove myself to you."

Me- "Why? What will it solve? It wont solve the memories, or the nightmares, or the fact that every guy who is bigger than me scares me so bad i pass out? No Mickey. It wont solve anything!

Mickey- "*rubs my arms* Im so sorry Meghan."

Me- "NO! Don't touch me! Please don't touch me!"

Mickey- "Meghan I will never lay a hand on you. I wont ever hit you."

Me- "But you have before and thats all the matters! I like someone else, you cant just come back into town and expect me to instantly love you and be all over you or forgive you. Im sorry but that is NOT how I work." 

Mickey- "I know Meghan, just give me a chance please."

Meghan- "Mickey, I can't trust you because, one you just came into town. Two, you beat the living shit out of me in 5th grade. If i give you another chance what if you lose it for a split second and I'm standing too close? Then what?"

Mickey- "Meghan i will never lay a hand on you or another women. I promise."

By this point there are tears pouring down my face, a part of me is hoping Matt will show up out of the fucking woods and save me. Another part of me is wanting to kiss him and at least give him 1 chance. But Im loyal to Matt. 

Me- "I need time, i c-cant do this right now. My birthday is in a little under a week away and i have Band camp tomorrow. Goodbye Mickey."

I was so ungodly scared. I got on my longboard and rode away i was about 1/2 way away from the skatepark and glanced around to see him through his book and fro yo at a tree. And thats what scared me. 

I decided to ride to Matts and stay the night. I just kept crying. I knocked on the door and he opened up and held me really tight as i bawled my eyes out in his chest. I had calmed a bit but I was still in shock and I told him everything of what had happened between me and Mickey. He had a look in his eyes and i asked him what was wrong and all he said was, "Im going to kill him if he ever looks at you again. You're staying here and ill drive you to band camp this week. I'll sit up there with you and make sure hes not there. Im not letting him hurt you. EVER again." He looked at me and pulled me in a hug and we just laid there. It felt amazing. Then my phone lit up 

'Message request from Mickey Starlight'
