"Why are you driving so slowwww?"

"I'm not," I tell the asshole, even though I kind of am. I don't feel confident driving a car like this.

"You are."

"Please shut up, Zeke," I rub my temples, tired from the night I've had and mostly from Zeke's constant annoying conversations he keeps trying to have with me.

"I saw you and Mason," he says after a moment of silence.

I glance at him. He's slouched against the passenger side door, looking at me with a look in his eyes I can't recognise.

"I don't like it," he states.

"Like what?"

"You and him."

"Why?"

"Can't tell you," he looks away.

"Fine."

Another moment passes.

"Marnie?"

My head snaps to the side. "You just called me my name."

Oh my God. He's only called me my name once, and it was when he was mad at me for telling Cole and Isaac about babysitting him.

    As Zeke stares at his father, the color drains from his face."Does this look like your girlfriend?"I notice he's staring at me. "No, no. Marnie here, his babysitter."He smiles and looks at Zeke, who is silent. "Do you need a babysitter right now?" He appears to be laughing at him.He doesn't look much like Zeke; they only share a hair color, but his brown hair is pulled back with hair gel. He's dressed casually in a white t-shirt tucked into brown jeans, with an expensive-looking watch on his wrist."My name is Paul, and it's a pleasure to meet you. You can address me as Mr. Blakely."Okay, then, sir."What exactly are you doing here?" Zeke appears agitated."Please, Ezekiel, close the door. You're allowing a draft to enter, "Paul says this while ignoring him.Yes, in my head, I'm going to call him Paul."Why are you here?" Zeke asks as he closes the door."I decided to come home for the weekend," he begins to look around the room, "Where is your sister?""At a friend's place.""Wh

    Mason chuckles as I again toss an M&M at his mouth and it misses by a considerable distance, saying, "You suck at this.""I believe I finally understand. Keep away from me, "I add, aiming for a different M&M.M&Ms were all around us as we were seated on opposite ends of my couch in the living room.When he says, "Alright, boss," I aim and miss once more.It's rigged, this game.Let me try," chuckles Mason.I start speaking as I give him the bag.

Try again."With one eye closed and full focus, I aim the M&M towards him, and when I toss it, something miraculous occurs.It enters!"God, oh God! God, oh God! I finished! I'm an authority!"Mason is giggling uncontrollably as I encircle him, and he gives me a hug in return. He reclines on the couch, and I am on top of him. I feel like we are

    Oh God.The day has come.I'm anxious but also thrilled. Just hoping things won't get weird on this trip because of what happened with Zeke.I literally slide out of bed and onto the floor before entering my bathroom and turning on the shower. I remove my clothing and take a fast shower.I choose to wear denim shorts and a black and white striped t-shirt with my bikini underneath since we would be outside in the heat all day.It's currently 9:20 a.m. I make sure everything is packed in my backpack and go downstairs because Cole said he would pick us all up in his Dad's minivan at 10.I enter the kitchen, grab the package of Reese's puffs, and dump them into a dish while I say, "Hello Mom, hey Charlie.""Greetings, sweetheart. Are you anticipating today?"I reply, sounding less than thrilled, "Uh, yeah."You sound nothing like that.I fill the bowl with milk and then sit across from them."I am, but in school, something happened.

    Mason parks the car in my driveway and says, "So," clearing his throat as he takes the keys out of the ignition.What do you want to do right now? He gives me a strange look in his eyes when he looks at me.We recently watched the newest passenger film together. It was incredible, at least in my opinion. Mason considered it to be noisy and foolish. He finds it too idealistic.That said, I adore films like that. movies where the unthinkable occurs. They're the one thing that lets us escape reality and see what an other world might be like, aren't they?I enquire, "Do you want to come in?"He asks, biting his lip, "And do what?""Watch N*****x?" I shrug.He smiles and goes in closer to me, putting his lips on mine as he says, "Alright," nodding, "But first."I return the kiss by placing my hands on either side of his face.

Brown-haired women with brown eyes that have a tinge of black around the edges have been the norm. I've been trying to find her in others.However, it appears that she is unique among people. Nowhere near. I have been looking for her in empty eyes that I have peered into. They don't convey emotion the way she does. They might, but I fail to see it. Moreover, their hair has never been the ideal hue. Also, the shape of their lips has changed. Nevertheless, despite my urgent glances at them, they didn't make my heart race. They didn't even make my heart race when I only glanced at them in an effort to feel them on me.In an effort to feel something from it, I try to picture the female who is currently sitting on my lap and kissing my neck as being her. So that I may at least somewhat appreciate it. Yet it's ineff

    Just as Zeke disappears down the stairwell, I notice the back of his head. When did he arrive?"I have to leave. It was a pleasure speaking with you, "Mason, I say. We had run into each other and began chatting. I'd rather not waste my time talking to him because I still feel awkward around him, even if he doesn't.I decided that hating him was pointless because I no longer felt the same way about him. I'm too preoccupied with Zeke. The thought of him with anyone else doesn't bother me, but what he did still irritates me. Even if I haven't forgiven him completely, life is too short to hate people."All right," he says, looking down at his feet. "I'll be around then."I say goodbye and head downstairs, hoping to find Zeke. I've given it some thought, and I think I'll take Zoey's advice and just tell him how I feel.

    I open the front door to a squealing Zoey, who rushes in, grabs my arm, and drags me upstairs and into my bedroom."Would you mind telling me what's going on right now?" As I collapse onto my bed, I inquire. Zoey freaked out and called me half an hour ago, saying she needed to talk to me about something, so I told her to come over. And now she's closing the door and inspecting the outside of my windows for dramatic effect.Finally, she sits beside me on my bed and takes a deep breath. "Last night, Cole and I had sex."My pupils dilate. "Really? You finally succumbed to him.""I didn't give in to him; I wanted to.""... How did it go?" I inquire, surprised that I'm even interested in learning about this topic."Surprisingly effective. Cole is something "With a laugh, she says.

"You could just tell me that I'm attractive,"I shrug and say, "You're hot.He grins. Likewise, Ms. Jones.Unfortunately, I am still at the stage where the little things, like his calling me hot, make me blush.He squeals, "Awww," mocking me.

    As we enter the building for school, Zoey exclaims, "Thank Jesus, it's Friday."Similar," I respond with a chuckle. A walking meme, she is. Particularly today, when her hair is up in a messy bun, her face is unmade up, and she appears to be wearing pajamas.She murmurs, "See you in math," as she passes by my locker as I stop at mine.I unlock my locker with the code and pull my arithmetic book out. Then I realize that my nicely arranged row of books has something orange resting on top of it. A package of Reese's peanut butter cups is one of my all-time favorites, and I immediately recognize it as such.How on earth did something get inside of this? I didn't place it there because, if it had been in my hands, it would never have survived long enough to go to my locker.I pick it up confused to discover that the front has text scrawled in black marker.I'm sorry, baby.The short sentences written make my heart beat faster.

Jordan and I both turn to face him.Jordan grinned, "See who chose to show up," but didn't move.Jordan is pushed back by Zeke as he approaches us and says, "I said stay away from her."Jordan falters and his smirk disappears. He moves in his direction and prepares to hit him, but Zeke grabs him by the collar and throws him against the wall.You had better avoid her like the plague. You know, I can still go to the police.What?Zeke is easily pushed back by Jordan. You shouldn't be saying that, because I can still follow along, in my opinion. I don't think it's appropriate for you to say things like that because I still stand by what I said."Don't even consider it."Keep your lips quiet and don't mess with me, I say.
