Take me to Neverland

2 ~  Gossip, girls, and gays

I sat my tray down as I slid onto the bench next to Georgie. She's always been a gossip magazine on legs, so I'll take a shot asking her about Will and Kayley.

"Do you know anything about Will and Kayley... Y'know, together?" I asked in a hushed tone only she could hear.

"Oh yeah, they're a thing. They have been for a month or so now. I'm sorry, babe." Georgie puts her hand on mine in an attempt to soothe me. Her smile, empathetic.

"I don't even care anymore. If he's happy and she treats him good then that's all that matters." I say as I push my tray of food away. I lost all appetite I might have had.

"Cece! Are you gonna eat that?" Tyler says sternly while pointing to my tray. He may be a fun, flirty gay, but also very stubborn.

"I'm not hungry" I mumble, saddened by my own words.

His face softens, then turns to a look only he can display so well. Hunger.

He digs into my used-to-be ice cream, now just cream, and brownie. I start to get jealous and drag my tray back.

He smirks at me while I roll my eyes at him. He always knows how to get his way.

Mel's laughter dies down from something her and Trish were talking about and she turns to me.

"How was science?" She scoffs, knowing how much I hate it. Don't get me wrong, I love science and how interesting all the concepts are, I just really hate the teacher.

He's not only boring, but a total perv and druggy. He seems to have a liking for me and Trish, which is incredibly creepy.

"Shut the fuck up" I say with brownie stuffing my mouth.

Everyone lets out a small chuckle at my words, making me smile.

The bell rings, signaling that we are to get back to our classes. We all clean off our table then walk to our lockers.

The rest of my day going by slowly. Math then p.e and then my day was over.

I was on my way to the bus stop, after already missing the first one while waiting for Mel. Her never showing up at our usual meeting spot so I decided to leave without her.

Just as the bus pulled up, I saw Mel lazily jogging to catch it and join me.

"Where did u run off to that made u so late?" I asked as we sat down.

Mel scoffed "I didn't run off to anywhere, I don't run for gods sake. I was simply late." she said as she looked down and her cheeks turned scarlet.

"Oh my god. You were with your boy toy, weren't you?" I poked at her

She covered her face with her hands as she said a muffled "He's not my boy toy"

I laughed and put my arm around her.

"What happened today?"

"He was being really sweet, like, extra sweet. So we started kissing like usual but today it felt different. Like, he put emotion into it this time and held me close to him. We got so wrapped up that time passed us quickly, before I knew it, I was gonna miss the second bus. So we said our goodbyes and he kept giving me small kisses on my nose or the corner of my lips. I grabbed my things and he hugged me tightly one last time and I ran to the bus stop. And here we are right now." Her face was a shade of pink and a cheesy love-sick grin plastered on her face

"Disgusting" I giggled and gave her a hug and a highfive.

I was so happy for Mel as she had been in love with this boy since grade 7. He found out about her feelings towards him and used her for his own pleasure. But as the years have went on he's actually started caring. Mel told me that now instead of just meaningless sex or other sexual acts happening, he's taken her on some dates and apparently invites her over a couple nights to 'just cuddle and talk'.

It's so amazing to see that joyful look on Mel's face again. She had been really down but never wanted to talk about it. Instead, she tried to help me with all my helpless problems.

This is why she was my best friend and I would never let anyone hurt her. I just about strangled that boy when he would just call her for sex and nothing more.

*

We talked about random thoughts and the usual things all the while home.

Mel rang the bell and gave me a hug and a kiss on the cheek as she got up and waved a goodbye.

I watched as she thanked the bus driver, walked to my window, crossed her eyes and stuck out her tongue just as the bus drove off.

A/N so I started writing this chapter August 25th 2014 and finished writing this chapter January 26th (1:46am) 2015...

I'm great at writing books .-.

Well at least I finished the chapter, now time for sleep.
