The Deal with Bestfriends

Possible Breakups and Awkward Situations

I woke up to someone shaking me.

"Wake up, beautiful!" I heard a melodic voice say.

I slowly open my eyes to see the sparkling blue eyes of Marcus. Whaa? How did he get into my room? "I have something to tell you".

"Hmm?" I was starting to wake up. I sat up straight and looked him in the eyes. "What are you doing so early in my room, Marc?"

"I came here to tell you that I love you!"

I blinked. And I blinked again. "YOU WHAT?"

"I love you."

"B-but how about Tina?" 

" I never loved Tina! I only love you!"  

"Me?" 

"Yes, you." 

"Oh, Marcus! I love you too! I always have!"  

"Now, we can be together, Monica and have many babies!"  

"Monica!" 

"Yes, my dear Marcus?" 

"Monica!" 

"Yes, Marcus what's wrong?"

"MONICA!!"

My eyes shot open as I felt ice cold water slide down my body. What the heck?! I look for the culprit of this and the one who has an early death wish.

"AARON! WHAT THE HECK?! WHY THE FRICK DID YOU SPLASH WATER ON ME?!" I yelled at my brother when I saw him standing there, already dressed for school, with an empty bucket.

"Your alarm was going off and you wouldn't wake up."

"But did you have to wake me up that way?!"

"I tried shaking you awake, but you didn't wake up. You kept muttering something about Marcus. Something I should know about?" He said while raising an eyebrow suggestively.

I blushed remembering my dream. Oh, gosh! It was just a dream. How sad.

"Oh nothing. I was just worried about him..that's all. He was acting weird yesterday. I mean, he wanted to do his homework early! Can you believe that?" I said, chuckling nervously while trying to hide my blush.

His eyebrow shot further up his head, if that was possible. "Okay, sure. Just get ready or you'll be late for school."

I checked the clock. 7:38 am. My eyes probably bulged out of my sockets. School starts at 8:00 am! I hurriedly took a shower, since I was dripping wet from the water poured on me. I changed quickly into a pair of jeans and grabbed a random shirt, while tying my hair into a messy ponytail. I rushed downstairs, grabbed my shoes and schoolbag and took a piece of toast to eat on the way to school.

I rushed out the door at 7:51 am. Aaron already left the moment he woke me up, Anna and Marcus have probably left at around 7:40 am. That was our agreement. If someone wasn't out of the house by that time, we can go ahead. I ran to school and reached my locker at 7:55 am. I rushed to my first period, Math, saying quick 'sorrys!' to those I bumped into.

I reached my class with a minute to spare. I blew a sigh of relief as I sat in my usual seat at the back, next to a girl named Ira.

The rest of the day passed quickly and I found myself walking towards my locker to get my lunch. I see Marcus waiting there and I smile. As soon as I see the troubled expression on his face, my smile falls.
