Maria’s POV

My family and I just got home from the Marchant’s house. I felt guilt and exhaustion taking a toll on me. I really missed the Marchants, but I couldn’t shake the feeling of guilt. I don’t exactly know the reason why, but the feeling is there.

I sighed and ran a hand through my hair and looked over at the sleeping James, who was on my bed with his limbs spread out. I gave the sleeping body a sad smile as I entered the room and wash off the makeup.

Dark blue eyes stared straight back at me. Guilt and sadness filled them. I eyed the scar that started at the left top of my forehead and ran across my whole face. I wiped away tears that I didn’t realize that were falling. I put on light makeup, enough not to kill my skin, but enough to cover up the scar. No one must know about it.

I headed back into my room and saw it was 3:29am. I sighed, only wanting to curl up next to James for comfort. James was the leader of our small group, Underdogs. I wonder if they still remember it. I sure do. As I was about to drift off to dreamland, I heard shuffling and pounding outside.

I tiredly pull on a random hoodie and saw that it was Aleks’ HD jacket. It still fits me because it was huge on me before, now it fits perfectly. I had James’ shorts on and I realized that I don’t wear my clothes to sleep anymore. I chuckled then walked outside, taking my time. I walked to my lawn and saw Aleks and Ari outside tp-ing my house. I shrugged and lie on the grass and fell asleep. I was too tired to care. They did this all the time when we were younger. I stopped thinking and fell into a deep slumber.

~In the morning~

I woke up on the grass with people towering over me. I sat up and all of my hair was on one side, looking as if I shaved half of my hair. I yawned and rubbed my eyes before looking up. I saw James, Ari, and Aleks looking at me. James and Ari were trying to hold in laughter while looking at Aleks, who was looking away blushing.

Why is he blushing, don’t people blush when they like someone or embarrassed? No he can’t like me. I’m a mess. Although I always knew I liked Aleks, throughout my childhood.

“What?” I mumbled, still feeling tired.

“We were tp-ing your house and you came out, looked at us and laid on the ground and just slept right there and then.” Ari chuckled while giving me a soft smile.
