- Addison -
I got home and found everyone sleeping so I got in the shower and got ready for bed. I was tired from all of the thinking I've done about a certain person. Austin. I was so confused by what happened so I decided to go to bed. But then I remembered I didn't ask Alex about the bracelet he got for Sarah. I picked up my phone and texted Alex.
Hey Alex I totally forgot to ask you about what happened with the bracelet! Did you ever find it? (:
I waited and a few seconds later my phone vibrated.
Yeah Andrew found it in my room. Thanks for asking Addie.
I smiled thankfully knowing that he had found the bracelet. I went to put my phone down but then my phone vibrated again. An unknown number came up and I read,
Hey Addison it's Austin(:
He must've still been at Alex's house and got my number from his phone. A little creepy?
Oh hi Austin! I was actually just gonna go to bed sorry:(
My phone vibrated again.
No no it's okay. Goodnight Addison(:
I smiled confused and put my head on my pillow, instantly falling asleep.
****
I woke up with someone jumping on me and screaming my name. I opened my eyes and saw my little sister Hailey in my face trying to open my eyes. I smiled, "Im up Hail! Come on we have to get ready. You have daycare today."
I went to the bathroom, I washed my face, brushed my teeth and my hair. I then put the straightener to my long blonde hair making it perfectly straight. That's the one thing I like about me, is my hair. I got dressed in cache shorts and a pink tank top with my black vans. I know it's only September but it's still hot here.
I ran down the stairs and I found Hailey eating cereal. I got a bowl, spoon, frosted flakes, and milk. I quickly ate before I heard the doorbell. It must be Brooke. I opened the door and saw Alex standing there. "Hey Alex. What's up?"
"I just came over here to ask you something and maybe we could walk to school if you want."
"Sure let me just go get my bag."
After I got my bag, me and Alex made our way to school. We talked about random things and laughed the whole way. That's what I like about our friendship the most.
We finally got to school but Alex left me to be with Sarah. I went to my locker and I turned the combination. When I opened it all notes came flying out. Most of them said "Go die nobody cares about you" or "You dirty whore" or "Ugly slut". I looked down startled and saw Brooke staring at me at the corner of my eye while hearing her say, "Addison.. oh my god. Who would do something like that?! I'm going to beat them to death whoever did that."
I looked up at her with a tear rolling down my cheek. "I have to go.." I slam my locker and run down the hallway to the nearest exit. I suddenly barreled into someone making me fall back onto the floor. I look up to see a tall boy with brown hair and hazel eyes. I soon notice that it's Austin. He reached his arm out to let me grab his hand to get me up but I refused. I got up myself and brushed past him saying, "Excuse you.."
I don't really care if I was rude or being nasty, I just had to get out of this hell of a school. I began walking again until I felt someone grab my arm and turn me around. "Hey, uh, Addison? Are you alright? You were running so fast that I didn't see you and you ran into me. I-I am so sorry." I stood there stunned while staring into his hazel eyes. "I-I'm okay. I'm just gonna leave now" I stutter, turning around to walk away. Before I could, he ran in front of me putting his hands on my shoulder. "Addison, I know that I'm not the most trustworthy person in this school but if there's something wrong you can tell me. I could help you."
I stood there not saying a word, a tear rolled down my cheek but before I could wipe it off, he did. Am I dreaming? I never thought Austin would spend time actually talking to a girl like me, a worthless human being. He admitted how he is and he's being real to me but how do I know he doesn't do this to every girl and plays them? He probably does this to everyone.
"I'm sorry but I don't need help. I'm leaving this school and not coming back. I can't take the bullying or looks I get from people.. it's overbearing. I need a break", I say not even remembering who I'm talking to.
He stares into my eyes and nods. "I totally understand what you're going through. I go through the same stuff as you. No one believes that it happens but it does. Everyone thinks I'm so popular and that everyone loves me. But they actually don't, they only hate on me and use me to get popular." I just stand there listening to him open up. I can't believe he's doing this. Why me? I'm not that special. "Do you wanna go somewhere with me? We could leave and go to Starbucks or something to talk about this more private. If that's okay with you"
I nodded and he put his arm around me. As we walked we got some dirty looks from girls who were obviously jealous. I still don't know why he's being like this with me. As thoughts kept filling my head, I remembered that Alex had to ask my something this morning and still hasn't yet. I wonder what it was.
"Addison I could feel you shaking. It's gonna be okay sweetheart." Those words that I just heard gave me the chills which made me shake even more. I smiled at him but then we stopped at the sight of a security guard roaming around the teachers parking lot which we were walking to. I looked back up at him with a confused face of what to do next. He grabbed my hand and dragged me to the other side of the parking lot. We came to a little hole in the fence that we both could fit in but I was still nervous.
"I-I don't think I could fit in there" I said as he bent down and crawled through. If he could do it, I could do it because he is way taller than me. I sighed, bent down and crawled through like a crab. I looked back up at him and I could see him laughing. "What are you laughing at?" He laughs even more now. "It wasn't even funny Austin" I chuckle. His laugh was so adorable and contagious.
"It was just so funny! The way you crawled through there! It was actually cute in a way because you looked so nervous", he looked down which made me think that he was thinking. "Let's go to Starbucks you crabby" My mouth goes into the shape of an "o" and I playfully slapped his arm. He's priceless. He's making me forget that he's supposed to be a "player", well no he's not. He's sweet, outgoing, caring, and really really really hot. I guess he tries to be a "player" on the outside but on the inside he's mellow and loving.
As we walked to the nearest Starbucks, he really opened up to me. "My childhood wasn't really the best because my dad passed away when I was little. I didn't really know him that well and I wish I did but everything happens for a reason. I am thankful for my mom though. She's been raising me and teaching me how to be a man when sometimes I'm not even one."
"Yeah you are Austin. To me you're a man but everyone else doesn't see that side of you."
He nodded, "I agree like I've always been with different girls but every time it didn't feel right. It was like something missing. I know this is corny but it was like a puzzle piece missing."
"Yeah me too. With my ex-boyfriends they always were players and they used me..." I said staring off into the sky.
"What do you mean use you?" he asked me with concern.
"They used me to have sex but I never went through with it because I wasn't ready and I'm not a slut." I sighed. I can't believe I'm telling him this. It's more of a personal thing that I always keep to myself but with him it's different. I feel like I could tell him everything in this world and he would listen and actually care.
*1 week later*
The first week of school went great. I've been getting closer and closer with Austin. He's totally not the "player" everyone brings him out to be. He's really a sweetheart. We've hung out after we went to Starbucks that time but Alex was there too. We've never had alone time yet which is good because I don't like moving fast. Wait what? Do I actually like him? Yes I like him a lot. But the question is.. does he feel the same way?
