How to take a hostage (Johnny Depp fanfiction)

Chapter 31

Getting up in the morning was worse than normally, I couldn't sleep last night, overthinking kept me awake. Which means I would be tired the whole day. All of my friends were talking about some party they would go to and I hadn't the slightest Idea what they meant. Nerdy Mary would stay at home in Johns arms and be happy. A bit I felt bad for not telling my best friend about John, but how could I? 'Hey, never told you, but my new boyfriend is a bankrobber who kidnapped me'? Nah she would drag me to the doctor. But guilt was a sneaky little thing,I had to think about it the whole day. Until I finally told her. In the English lesson, it was boring as usual and no one listened anyway. After 9 hours of school that was quite normal and the early setting sun didn't help. But that wasn't the point. When I told her I had a boyfriend now she almost screamed through the whole class. Had I been that lonely? Even Mrs Lester realized it and sat her away from me. Um okay, a little bit more time to think about how much I could tell her. Not everything, she would be in danger too.

The bell rang and I tried to avoid eye contact to Katy, I could see the curiosity burning in her eyes. I wasn't ready, so I packed my bag as slowly as possible. When I was finally finished she was almost jumping up and down. We didn't live too far away from each other and the whole way back home she kept asking me. Who he was, what he looked like, how old he was, how long we've been together, where we met and if she could meet him. Too many bloody questions. I've never had secrets, she knew everything about me, but not this time. I couldn't even tell her why I couldn't tell her. "So you don't trust me? Oh great, thanks Mary, I've told you about Alex as well, although you know how embarrassing it was and now you don't even wanna tell me his name?!", she yelled, not even close to speaking silently. Okay, it was a fault to tell her, she was too curious and couldn't stand those secrets. From now on I wouldn't have a silent minute. "Look, it's I can't tell you and that has nothing to do with you, it is really necessary, I'm not doing this, because it's fun, it's...", I tried to explain, but she interrupted me "spare me with your excuses!", definitely angry. Our way together ended here, I had to walk 10 minutes alone, but that was the most inappropriate moment to leave each other.

Her anger was quite understandable, but to me she was overreacting. I didn't turn into a terrorist! When I tried to walk behind her to not let he situation end like this, she turned around "I don't want to hear it, if you got him, you won't need me anymore, just go and be happy!" I saw the anger in her eyes and knew it would be better to talk to her the next day. When she was angry, it wasn't funny to argue with her. I sighed and slowly turned round, deciding to go home alone in the darkness. Where the hell was John actually? Didn't he say he wanted to pick me up? No rely at anyone anymore.

What an awful day.
