I woke up with the sun shining through my curtains and the light breeze of the wind that was coming through the partly opened window.
I got up and got ready. I grabbed my bag and opened the door and there stood Sara. We hugged and walked to the bus stop. Cuscus and Martinus sat there playing in their phones. I swear, they never put them down.
"Yeah, annoying right?" someone asked. We looked over and saw Luke. We nodded. "I'm Luke, captain of the football team or soccer as you call it". He said holding out his hand. I shook his hand then Sara.
We just sat there awkwardly for a few seconds. "Are you Sasa?" He asked me. "That depends, why?" I asked. "If so, you really have Marcus knocked off his course" he said.
"That means what?" Sara asked. "Marcus has a crush" he said. "No way, not possible" I said. "Mmm, self doubt. Come on it is written all over his innocent face"
"No, Marcus does not like me" I said. "And little Sara, Martinus is falling hard for you" he said. "No he isn't" she said. He laughed. "Okay, whatever you say.." he said right before the bus came.
We all got on and I put my ear buds in and looked out at the windows. Instead of the big picture I focused on the little things. Clouds, birds, butterflies, rabbits, and crickets. I could see rabbits hop and crickets jump.
Butterflies flew, birds flew, and clouds moved. Norway is beautiful. We made it at school and went to our lockers.
We went to class as well. Classes were fine until lunch. Sara and I sat, and Martinus sat down as well. No Cuscus 😞. "Where is Cus- I mean Marcus?" I asked.
"Oh well Sasa, Cuscus got sick" Martinus said. "Awe, okay. How do you know about the Cuscus and Sasa?" I asked. "Because I know everything" he said with a smile. "Stalker" I mumbled. He laughed.
"What kind of food does Marcus like?" I asked. "Tacos" Martinus said. "What else?" I asked. "Pizza" he said. I nodded. The bell rang and I went to class. I couldn't stop thinking about sick Cuscus and what Luke said.
Once the final bell rang I got a text.
Hi Sasa.
Who is this?
Marcus.
Oh, Hello!
Hello 😞
Why the sad face?
I got sick.
I'm sorry
Do you know what would make me feel better?
What?
You.
Okay, where do you live?
Trofors.
Thanks, for the address.
I was kidding *what ever their address is*
I will see you soon.
I went home, made tacos and went to his house. I rang the doorbell and Martinus answered it. "Hang on" he said. I nodded and he shut the door. I waited there for a second then the door opened again and Cuscus and Martinus came out.
Marcus didn't look pleased. He saw me and hugged me. "Martinus, you lied" Cuscus said. "Sorry" Martinus said. We broke away. "He said there were fans to see me" Marcus said. I nodded.
"Are those tacos??" He asked. "Just for you" I said handing him them. "You're the best!" He said. I laughed and they took me inside. Before I could see anything I was being pulled upstairs and into a room.
Marcus shut the door and we sat on his bed. "When you are with me, I feel like I am not sick" he said. "Awe, let me cough on ya" I said. He got up. "No way" he said. "I'm kidding" I said. He sat down.
"So I met Luke today" I said. "Yeah? What did he say?" He asked. I couldn't tell Marcus. "He said he likes the name Sasa" I lied. "Good, Cuscus and Sasa we are" he said. We both laughed.
We both fell backwards on the bed and laughed. Marcus put on a scary movie. I hate scary movies, but I will watch it for him. Every time a scary scene came on I found myself holding Marcus tighter.
He didn't seem to mind. He just fiddled with my hair. I felt my eyes get heavy after a while and I slowly fell asleep on Marcus' chest.
Marcus' P.O.V
I put on a scary movie. Every time something scary would happen Sam would hold me tighter. I didn't care, because well, I like her. I played with her hair.
She was laying on my chest when I heard a light snore. I looked down and she was sleeping on me. I laid my head on hers and fell asleep as well.
