THE ONLY EXCEPTION! | elmax

im back!! so sorry :(

jane laid down on the couch in the wheeler's basement, she was bored out of her mind. her head dangled off the side of the couch easily her hair covered her eyes so she couldn't see. what would she want to see anyway? all mike did the whole time she was there was play video games.

she really didn't want to be at mike's but her house reminded her too much of max. thinking of max made her heart ache and her brain hurt. thank god the couch she was on wasnt anything like max, it smelt like cat pee and chips. mike doesnt even have a cat! she isnt sure how that works and somehow that couch is the least smelly thing in the basement.

"mikeee!"

"what is it jane?" he sounds annoyed which he didn't have any right to be, jane was blessing him with her presence.
"i'm so bored!" jane rolled her eyes.

"do something then." mike scoffed, "why are you even here if you're just going to sit there?"
jane didn't really listen to what he said, she just sat up and fixed her hair. "wanna make out?"

the girl waited for a response as she heard mike clear his throat loudly. he looked back at her to see if she was playing a stupid prank on him. her expression was completely blank so he wasn't sure what to do.

while he was staring at her, his character in the game died and it made an awfully annoying sound. "well are you going to say anything?" jane's face finally shed a little bit of emotion, she raised an eyebrow in confusion.

suddenly, mike stood up and ran towards her. jane finally understood why he didn't do sports, nothing about the way he ran looked flattering. he tripped on multiple cords and almost got a face full of stinky carpet. when he got to her he crashed his face into hers. she didn't understand what was so appealing about all of this. he started biting and licking at her lips like she was a greasy piece of meat and his mouth tasted like stale doritos.

while mike was trying to devour her face his character kept dying over and over again, making the most obnoxious high pitch grunt that made jane so annoyed. mike tried to get her to open her mouth to deepen the kiss, but those noise was too distracting. he pushed her down on the couch to further encourage her and that was the last straw. she used all her force to push him off of her and he fell onto the floor with a thud. a crinkle was also heard, he must've fallen on some garbage. jane grimaced to herself.  "what the fuck this was your idea.. you think you can treat me like this?"

she didn't know what to do. she didn't mean to be mean and push him she just couldn't control herself. "you're such a freak! i don't know why we let you in our group anyway! max is so much more fun than you. she's prettier too. maybe if your hair was longer you wouldn't look so ugly like some boy!" mike spat  angrily looking up at her. jane's eyes filled with tears, she knew max was better than her in every way, but she didn't need him telling her.

"oh, i look like a boy huh?" she laughed through the pain. she wasn't thinking like herself, at this moment all she wanted to do was hurt him the way she was hurting. "that must be why you like my so much.. wish i was your little boyfriend?" venom laced her voice.

"you're one to talk you're the fruitiest person i know! you know i only agreed to this because i thought maybe you wanted to try being normal. i see the way you look at her. she's never going to love you. she's normal, she likes boys."

no. he was lying. he's just angry. she's not like the people in the paper that always wind up dead. there's no way jane felt that way about max. there was no way she'd be the face in the newspaper that everyone skips by during breakfast because oh it was such a shame what happened to them.. maybe if they fixed themselves.

no.

jane picked up her boots from beside the couch and threw them across the room. she no longer had any control of her movements. she stormed out of the house and into the street.

the ground was cold and wet like it had rained while she was there, but she couldn't feel a thing. the pounding in her head and chest were too strong.

everyone's going to know.

she never denied what mike said and now he's going to tell everyone.

she couldn't breathe.

they're going to know about how you've counted every single freckle on max's face, but have never even noticed if mike had freckles or not.

they're all going to know.

she's going to know.
