Never Too Late

Chapter 2

I look up and I see my friend Anne. We haven't been on very good terms lately but I guess we are still friends for now anyway. It kinda sucks that we are drifting away from each other since we were friends since kindergarten but I guess things change.
"Hey yay for no band huh?" She says laughing
"Yeah thank goodness I definitely did not feel like playing today"
"When does anyone actually feel like playing?" She asked
"Very true" I said chuckling a bit only enough that it sounds like I'm actually laughing and that it wasn't fake (even though it was)
"Ready for peer leadership today?!" She asked excitedly
"Not really. We just sit there the whole time not getting anything done"
"True but we sometimes get things done"
"I guess" I said shrugging looking over her shoulder because I felt eyes on me. And those eyes happened to be...

Andrew's? The hell? I make eye contact again and then look back to Anne really quickly with wide eyes
"You okay? You look like you saw a ghost" she asked
"Yeah I'm fine I just made eye contact with Andrew." I said
"Aww thats why you're blushing" she said teasing me
"Shut up I'm not blushing"
"Sureeee"
"Time for lunch!!" The substitute teacher said
"Yay let's go!" Anne said pulling me with her
Ugh lunch. Something else I hate. I probably hate lunch almost as much as I hate myself.
Here I am sitting at lunch with Anne, our friend Rose and a few other people just staring off into space as everyone around me talks. I felt the seat next to me shift and someone sit there but I didn't even bother to look. Man am I hungry. I won't give in I won't give in I keep repeating in my head.
"MARIE!!" Anne says snapping her hand in front of my face making me jump and look to my left at her
"Huh what?!" I asked
"I said are you okay? You looked like you were deep in thought"
"Yeah I'm fine. Why wouldn't I be fine? Hehe" I nervously laugh
"Just wondering. You aren't eating again?"
"No I'm not really hungry" lies all lies it's because you're fat thats you're not eating. You don't deserve food the little voice in my head whispers to me. It is right tho.
"If you say so" she says. Almost suspiciously.
"So Andrew, what have you been up to?" Rose asked wait Andrew?!! I look to my right and indeed right there is my crush Andrew. Well shit
He's giving me a look. Like he can see through me. Crap that's not good. I nervously look down and avoid his gaze while pulling on my long sleeves
"Oh you know not much just been practicing on the guitar and singing and such" he said ugh I can listen to him talk all day
I didn't say anything to him. I had no idea what to say. Anne kept nudging me trying to get me to say something go but I couldn't get the nerve. So after lunch we went back to the auditorium and talked and stuff until the bell rang for our final class.
