'I'm fine.Really' She smiles again looking at her three best friends.

You could feel her broken heart.

You could see the sadness in her eyes.

You could her the sorrow in her voice.

But she keeps on telling herself,her friends and her parents that she's fine.
She keeps on telling her brothers that she's fine.

Faking a smile day in and day out,pretending everything is fine,thinking that her crying would just make the others angry.

'Mary..Niall asked me today if we want to go to his party in the evening.You don't have to go if you don't want to but he said he'd be happy if you showed up.But no worries,I can tell him that you need your time and'

'I want to go to that party' She interrupts Noelle smiling

'Are your sure.Isn't it a bit too..'

'No!Really..I really need some distraction and what could be better that some shot and cocktails with my friends' Mary answers cheerfully but earns concerned looks once more

'Yes I know what you think but I have to handle this situation in my way' She says again and they finally agree

'What should I wear?' She asks Noelle,standing before her wardrobe

'What about this one?' Noelle answers,pointing on a purple coloured dress



Flashback

'Wow' He whispers as she stands before him

'You look so'

'I know.I think I'm gonna change it' She answers and wants to go back to her room but he stops her

'No!You look beautiful.Don't you ever forget that you look beautiful' He said and then kissed her cheek

'Where are we going?' She asks,heading towards the door

'I thought about cinema and then we can see what else we want to do' He suggests

After a 5 minutes drive they arrive at the cinema

'But we won't watch those love stories where you already know in the beginning how it ends.Boy meets girl,they fall in love,he lies about something,she's disappointed,they break up,he doesn't want to give up,chases her at the airport,they live happily ever after' Mary says annoyed and Hunter can't help it but laugh

'But I thought girls like movies like that'

'I don't know about the others but I love some good old horror movies like Stephen King's It' She answers and he smiles

'What about Final Destination?' He asks her,looking at the schedule showing the next movies to come

'I'm okay with that' She says and they buy the tickets

3 Hours later

'Wow..that was boring' Marilyn says as they leave the cinema again

'Boring?I nearly screamed.Multiple times!' Hunter says suprised and Mary shrugs

'You really are not a normal type of girl' He says and she looks at him smiling

'It was not in my intention to be a normal girl' She grins

'So what next?' She asks

'What about just going for a walk getting to know each other better' He suggests

---

'So you have like 5 brothers..and 1 sister?' He asks Mary again and she nods her head

'We're some weird Patchwork-family you know.But my brothers are really protective even Aaron' She says smiling

'He's younger than you,isn't he?' He asks her

'Yep.He's the last one.But honestly,if you ever get to know my family,I'll already apologize,because they are really weird and have no sense for privacy' She says

'Sense for privacy?'

'Yes,and my older brothers and my dad can be really intemidating.Except my mum we're all tall and my brothers are really muscular and Richie is in the army and Emmanuel is studying medecin and has the connections to inject you some weird poison and then Dickson could hide the murder because he's a public official.' (A/N: These are really my brothers and now that I'm thinking about it,they could really erase some people for me)
'And why couldn't they help you with those bitches at school?' He asks

'I don't know.Ok I do know but don't know how to explain.It's just..I don't want them to be worried about me.They have their own problems and I shouldn't bother them with mine'

'But you can tell me your problems.' He suggests

'Really?'

'Yup.If Mandy or Candy or Sandy and her bitches come back to you I'll be there' He answers and Marilyn laughs

'So and if I ever get to know your family,I'll be careful what I say to them and how I act' He says

'Yeah,that might be better for you' She smiles

'Hey we're at my house' Mary says

'Didn't you notice which way we were walking?' He asks and she shakes her head

'Soo..'

'Hmm?'

'Ok..thank you for going out with me' He says uncomfortably

'No prob-'

Before she could end her sentence,he kisses her softly holding her as if she was the most fragile masterpiece he ever had the honor of touching.


Flashback ends

'No.I'm gonna wear something else' She says and dries the tears that was rolling down her cheeks

'Ok!Let's get going!' She says cheerfully,jumping up going to the bathroom
