When We Collide √

Chapter 61

Aiden doesn't speak to me all through dinner and I appreciate it because I don't have any answers for his questions. The phone is still in the box on the kitchen counter and no one has dared touched it .

After dinner I immediately go to sleep. Maybe I'm the one who pushed things a little with Amell about that Gail thing and all....but he didn't have a right to hurt me maybe he actually loves her and he felt bad about what I said but being the jerk ass I am I wasn't going to apologize that little rant at the library was to ensure that I don't get any closer to him than I already am he is dangerous

No he's not Tracy

But he fucking hurt me

But you asked for it indirectly

But....

He's not dangerous Rae

Why couldn't I bring myself to believe it then. Amell was so moody it's like he was bipolar or something one day he's nice and both of us are laughing like we've known each other for ages and then the next day he's pushing a table towards me and literally squeezing my gut. I fucking hate him I swear. Up to now the phone was still on the counter in the kitchen

Aiden had tried to ask me about it before I went to sleep but I ignored him . I knew Aiden he was going to find a way to make me tell him everything he'd choke the words out of me if he had to but I didn't want to talk about it to anyone.

I kept tossing and turning while trying desperately to get a good sleeping position or to find a warm place on the bed. After what seemed like ages I finally drifted to sleep

...........

I was dozing through the Chemistry lesson. My day had been so long I hadn't even gotten time to pee. I was struggling to keep my eyes open but they were betraying me. It was almost four meaning that school was ending soon and I was more than thankful about that. I kept looking at my desk mate's phone counting each minute

3:57

" Have a nice evening class ,"I heard Mr Hensworth say and I let out a loud sigh causing the whole class to look at me. The bell rang and what followed was the continuous dragging of chairs and shuffling of feet as everyone made their way out of class. I had passed my calculus test and my mood was quite jovial. Not that I was looking for him or anything but I hadn't noticed Amell the whole day. Maybe he'd just decided to miss Chemistry and English to avoid me because those were the only lessons we shared. The look on his face yesterday when I told him that I didn't need his help kept lingering in my mind and I felt bad about it. But not to burst his bubble or anything but he actually caused the whole thing. I was limping because of him (well not technically because he hit me where I'd already been hurt )and I think Aiden was mad at me for snobbing him practically the whole day since the previous day... again this was indirectly because of Amell

I walk to my locker slowly thinking of how I was going to limp home because I didn't want to disturb Cayleb with all my issues  when I heard someone shout my name. I turned around to find Marcus running towards me

Marcus????this was more of a question than an exclamation in my mind. Why on earth was he yelling my name in the hallway when I didn't even talk to him. I hated him ...well I actually hate almost everyone... I always have this feeling that he stole my best friend from me. He was walking fast towards me and I could see the shocked faces everyone was throwing at me. They were probably wondering why a hot soccer player was heading my way and shouting my name in the hall way

For once in the entire two weeks I saw Marcus without Kait by his side. Maybe something had happened between the two of them and they suddenly needed my help to settle the heat because...you know....who doesn't need an ex best friend to settle things between herself and her hot boyfriend ...note the sarcasm and eye roll

As I shoved my last book into my locker,Marcus finally reached me and stood quite a noticeable distance away from me he probably didn't want any rumors spreading that he was caught cheating on his girlfriend with her best friend ...oh ex best friend damn I'm clingy

"Tracy before I say anything .....," he begins and looks at me waiting for my response I  look at him with a furrowed brow

"Promise that you'll at least try to do what I say ," he finishes and let's out a breath

What does he mean. He looked puzzled really puzzled . If it was something to do with Him and Kait and their complicated relationship where they plan to live on a farm then he should do himself a favour and walk away because there was no way in hell I was going to help him not even in the parallel universe

He stared at me in anticipation. A million thoughts were flooding my mind right now and all of them were probabilities of what he'd done to Kait or vice versa . He tapped his foot on the floor and I looked at him. His green eyes were boring into mine he looked frustrated not the wicked Marcus I know

"What did she do ?" I ask him and he furrows his brow I raise mine and look at him quizzically. If this isn't about Kait then I don't think it's something that concerns me even if it were about Kait it still doesn't concern me...I'm not part of their perfect picture family that plans on living in a farm .....damn this farm thing is really getting to me

"It's not about Kait ," he says and stirs me up from my thoughts

His next words make my jaw drop slack to the ground
