i want you // marcus gunnarsen

4

the first week of school is always fun. but when that is over, it's the same old hell it has always been.

martinus and sophia keep flirting in the hallway but no progress seems to happen tho. marcus on the other hand is, well, marcus.

me and sophia are standing by the lockers just talking about something. marcus and martinus walk by, martinus winks at sophia who smiles at him. marcus just has his head on his phone as usual.

"so, what's going on between you and mister gunnarsen." i say to sophia who still has her eyes on martinus who has passed by a long time ago.

"what? nothing, i think." she says turning back to me. "we have been talking quite a lot but nothing is going on between us."

"just wait and something will happen. i promise." i say. the bell rings and we head to class.

i take my seat and take out my books. marcus sits next to me like usual, this time without saying anything about me being in his place or something.

"so, you'll be doing pair assignments which you'll have to do at home. i have decided the pairs based on what i've seen in class and in the hallway and i've tried pairing you up with someone you aren't possibly friends with." the teacher explains. "i'll show you your pairs at the white board."

i start going through the list and try to find my name and at the same time praying i won't end up with someone i don't like.

i finally find my name and then look who i'll be with. gunnarsen, marcus. oh god. i look to my side at marcus who is at his phone.

"marcus, you're my pair." i say and touch his arm incase he didn't hear me. he raises his head from his phone and looks at my hand and then at me.

"yea, okay. come to my house after school so we can start." he says. "i can drive you or something cause i guess you don't know where i live."

"yea fine." i say. he just turns his head back to his phone. i gotta say, he's really addicted to it.

school is finally over and i walk through the doors to outside. i see marcus leaning to the main gate with his sunglasses on.

i get to him and we walk to the parking lot. marcus unlocks his car and we get in. he starts the car and starts driving to his house.

we get to his house and he opens the door. we walk inside. he lives in a big white house in the rich neighborhood. of course.

"mamma! jeg er hjemme!" marcus yells from the door. i have no idea what he says, but soon his mom appears in the hall.

"oh, who is this lovely girl?" she asks smirking at her son. marcus rolls his eyes.

"i'm marcus' classmate, madison." i say and shake his mom's hand.

"i'm gerd-anne, you can call me anne." she smiles. marcus pulls me upstairs by my arm.

we go to marcus' room. i look around, there's a big manchester united flag in his wall. i guess he's a fan.

"don't mind the mess, i wasn't expecting company." he says throwing some stuff around. i sit on his bed and look at him trying to clean.
