What Is Reality Anymore? *~Book 1 in the Reality Series~*

Short Story

August 3rd, 2014
((I might have messed up the date)❤️💙❤️

I stared at the board watching the teacher write about studies while my friend Justin went on and on about video games and such.

"Carson?"

"Yeah?"

"You there?"

"Course."

"Anyways as I was saying in..."

I eventually blocked his voice and everything out.
The teachers were blanked out, the classroom disappeared, but Justin stayed.
We ended up being by the high school portables in front of the double doors leading to a hallway, but not many people use those doors, so they were blocked off.
I'm usually here when I'm taking a short cut to get to class or just to skip and hang with friends.
Justin looked down to me,
He looked nervous but I was unsure why.
Then I realized he was taller than me, we've always been either the same height or one a centimeter taller than the other but this was new but I guess made sense since...clearly I'm not in middle school now.
Speaking of which why am I not in uniform?
I don't know...

"Carson, I wanted to tell you that..."

I looked up at him, staring directly into his warm and friendly pool of chocolate eyes,
He broke the stare.

"I like you."

Startled I stepped back a bit, and we stared back and forth to one another for a good while and then I broke the awkward silence by telling him softly

"I'm sorry Justin, I think we're better as friends...Your an awesome guy but I think you'd be better off with someone else, and I'm so sorry but I think we should just be friends, your like a brother to me.."

Something was weird because instead of his glossy brown eyes,
His eyes dulled and went potentially dark

with it being to awkward I turned away from him and started walking to a portable when someone grabbed my wrist

"Justin wha-"

"You don't like me back?"

"I'm sor-"

His grip tightened and I struggled to get out of it, and I used my other hand to try and pry his hand off my wrist but he held tight.

"Justin what are you doing, Let Go?!"

He just glared at me

I pulled forward and he pulled me back, and I spun around in his direction when he pulled me close to him.

"Wha-"

He pulled me in and kissed me, his hands were trying to wrap around my waist and I pushed him off of me

I fell backwards onto the pavement, scraping my hand a bit.

He looked at me and wiped his mouth.

"What is wrong with you?!"

I realized I had a watch on and the time read 2:56

Everyone's already in class, so If I called for help, no one could hear me.

I just sat there staring at him,

I tried staring into his eyes but I broke the stare

He then came towards me, crouching down,

What is happening...

I started to get up and back away from him,

I couldn't out run him, I'm way slower, and I'm wearing heels for an odd reason.
