The Game Changer (A Magcon fanfic)

Chapter 16

Lexi
I was so scared because I didn't know where Katy was.

"Mahogany what do we do?" I asked, she looked at me for a moment, were my eyes swollen? dammit.

"Have you been crying?" she asked.

"No, no I haven't, now is not the time, we don't know where Katy is" I said.

"Don't worry, I've known Katy for a day and trust me if you will, she is a sensible person" said Mahogany putting her hands on my shoulders.

"I'm gonna go look for her" I said, I put on a random sweater that wasn't mine, idk why it was here, I don't think it's Katy's or Mahogany's either.

"I'll come with you" said Mahogany, I shook my head.

"No, it's fine, stay here, isn't Jacob supposed to come today?" I asked giving her a fake smile.

"Yeah, okay I'll stay, you better be back before 10" she said, I nodded and left.

"Katy" I said in a hushed voice.

"Lexi?" I heard someone say, I turned around and saw Matt peeking out from a door.

"What do you want?" I muttered.

"I heard footsteps, by the way you look hot in my sweater" he said smirking, I stared at him and rolled my eyes.

"Is Katy there?" I asked.

"Yeah but she's asleep, Cam brought her in last night when I told him to get blankets" he said, I felt relief go through my body, she was okay, but why was she in there?

"Okay thanks" I said, I was about to leave but he was just staring at me, it made me really uncomfortable.

"Have you been crying?" he asked, was it really that obvious I've been crying?

"No, no I haven't, why would I?" I said, I was about to leave but he grabbed my hand.

"If you need anyone to talk to let me know" he said, I gave him a small smile, my smiles haven't been genuine lately but this one sort of was.

"Thanks Matthew" I said, I took my hand out of his grasp and ran to our room.

"You find Katy?" asked Mahogany, I nodded and ran to the washroom, were my eyes really that swollen? I cried myself to sleep every night and every morning after waking up, It just happens, things remind me of Carter and I burst into tears, honestly I'm surprised I didn't go water works when I saw Carter yesterday.

"Lexi, are you okay?" asked Mahogany knocking on the door.

"I-I'm fine" I said, I was crying again.

"Not that again!" she said, she opened the door and saw me crying.

"Aww, Lexi what's up?" she asked.

"Nothing, I just burst into tears sometimes, its a problem I have" I said, it was true.

"Are you being sarcastic?" she asked.

"No, I'm not, just ever since the bullying its happened a lot, I cry every night too" I said.

"Then that's why I heard whimpering" she said, I nodded.

"Why does it happen?" she asked.

"Memories, both good and bad, I'm a big coward and no one knows" I said.

"From what I know your the most carefree person on the Internet, always smiling and laughing" said Mahogany, we walked out of the washroom.

"I try my best, also I tend to run from things, Im a huge coward" I said putting my head in my hands.
