Erratic

Erratic: Chapter 4: Ignoring the pain

||MACY||

After wiping my waterfall of tears away, I went back in to check the game. He shouldn’t affect me. The world isn't full of sunshine and rainbows so I must stay strong. But I can't do that. I liked him so much, maybe even loved. He was my world, he was my inspiration and he was the person I liked a lot. I sat down onto my seat as my friends ask me how I'm doing now and I faked a smile and lied that I'm all good now. I looked over towards at Chase and I felt my heart crumpling, it hurts just to look at him. I adverted my sight towards the scoreboard and saw that the team was winning by 20 points. 

It's nearly half time and Nathan, Cross and Cody wanted to be interviewed about the game on the half time break. That means that we (me, Lilliane and Kegan) would have to go down to the locker room and interview them. I stood up and walked over to Lilliane. Kegan's going in with the players because you never know, a sensational event might happen whilst he's gone.

"Hey you okay now?" Lilliane asked.

"Yep."

We went and talk about the game as we walk towards the locker room and every time Lilliane mentions something about Chase, I just simply ignore it but makes sure that it's not too obvious that I am. When we arrived in the locker rooms, we waited at the front so that we could interview the players immediately and not see the boys sweating their hearts out while they're half naked. When I heard the half time buzzer go, we prepared ourselves to interview the boys. Each of us is interviewing one person so that we could do the job quickly and efficiently. Chase led his teammates in and I looked around just to stop myself from looking at him. All of the players ran with so much energy whilst the others just jogged in because they knew that they were going to be interviewed.

Once the interviews were done, we left the boys to rest but not before we said thank you for the interview and saying good-bye. Everyone in the gym was chatting among themselves, some went out for some fresh air or to buy some food from the canteen because our school hired some stalls so the guests could buy any food that they want, one of our school's great attributes is that we show great hospitality, even though our guest is a great rival of our school on basketball. I approached my group of friends and they looked at me with teasing eyes.

"Soooooo.... you saw him half naked??" Theo teased while making her eyebrows go up and down.

I groaned and suggested "Please don't start with that kind of stuff... why don't we go to the cafeteria so we could grab some food? I haven't ate anything for hours!".

Once I said that, Kandice and Lilliane literally jumped up and raced towards the cafeteria leaving us behind. We laughed seeing them so excited about the school food because for once, the school actually has scrumptious food, don't get me wrong, our usual cafeteria food is quite nice but it does get boring if you constantly eat the same food every week.  The cafeteria was actually packed, people from St. Agnes were talking to people from St. Bridget which is something I'm used to, both of the schools are actually quite close, I guess... we do fundraisers together and all of those stuff but there has to be some kind of competition in them, but despite the competition, we're both supportive and both shows great sportsmanship.

All of my friends split up to buy our foods and we all agreed to meet up at the gym so we could have eat there. I rushed onto the hot dog stall and lined up before the line could get my longer. I waited for about 6 minutes until it was my time to order, I just bought hot dog and some ketchup and some mayonnaise and cheese, I know, it's not healthy and I'm not that fit, but who cares right now, all I want to do is eat because I'm not trying to impress anyone Yeah! Who cares about Chase! Shut up brain, let's just have fun and forget him for the day. After I got my hot dog and I paid for it, I then queued up to the churros stand, because churros are to die for, after chocolate dipped strawberries, cheesecakes, cheese, blue Gatorade and kiwis of course. Once I got my churros, I went and bought some blue Gatorade as well and once I was settled, I carried my stuff towards the gym.
