The Butterfly Affect
School bells
*MacKenzie's POV*
First bell rang and I was off to geometry. Keeping my head down so nobody would see me or give me disturbed glances. So I studied the old floor's tiling, worn but still shining like me. I crash into the person in front of me snapping me from my thoughts. In seconds I'm on the floor, my books scattered across the hall. By the color of my face you can see my embarassment. I hesitantly look up to find myself staring into the blue abyss. I shake my head and reach to pick up my books only to touch his hand. Sparks shoot up my arm and I'm left with a tingling sensation. Luke Hemmings. The most popular boy in school, and his insane group of boys. At the sudden connection of skin he looks away but, you can tell he's blushing. Why would he blush at a single action with me, a lonely musically gifted nerd. I usher a whispered thank you and rush to class. I notice everyone staring at me pointing and whispering. So I speed up not realizing he's behind me. I hand my teacher Mr. Pittman a note stating that I will be in the library for this period before rushing off to my remote location behind the crime and murder mystery books.
"I thought you would be in math this period. " Says a voice I am way to familiar with.
"I have to study for my biology exam. " I say with my voice barely above a whisper.
"Well we should study together, because I'm kinda failing and you're kinda excelling... in everything! If I want to play something other than the bench during season (basketball) I need my grades up. Will you pleeeeaaaasssseeee help me, I'll do anything!" Anything huh...
"Okay Luke I help you, on one condition will you think about taking me to prom?!"
I look at him shock clearly spread across his beautiful face. I knew it was a long shot but, it was worth a try.
"Deal!" Wait what, why am I saying this to myself. Get outta your head.
"Wait what, really?!?" Still whispering I mean, we are still in the library.
"Yeah really, so when so you want to meet to study?" He asks rather seriously.
"Well I am free after school if you want to study at the park. "
"Okay great, meet you at your locker at 3? "
"Sure"
"Alright, thank you so much Mac, I owe you big, see ya beautiful" Hugging me and leaving.
"I love you" I whisper my heart still fluttering from his charm.
3 rolls around rather quickly. I am 5 minutes late coming out of a conversation with my art teacher Ms. Brines. I see Luke and a huge crowd of people around my locker. My locker... Music journal!
"Shit! "
I walk a bit father and see Brin "Queen Bitch" reading my journal. My Luke page! "Dammnit, my life is over. Shit, shit, shit! "
I try to take it away but, she keeps reading and is much taller than 5 foot 1 me. She reads my past, Luke, and the songs I wrote. I grab my backpack and sprint out the doors to my car. I struggle with the keys because the tears are blinding me. I just slide down my car door and cry. I let it all go. I hear footsteps but I can't seem to muffle my sobs. I sound like a strangled cat.
"Luke, I am such a fool to think he could ever love me back. For writing music when I know I'm never going to go anywhere with it. For pretending to be strong when I know I am weak. For still breathing. They say I'm a waste, a mistake, I already know. Here I am sitting I a pool of my own tears talking to myself."
"Actually you were talking to yourself, but I was listening so you were kinda talking to me without knowing I was here."
I am slightly started but continue into a nervous rant.
"Shit, I am so stupid talking to myself and writing but, my writing is pretty good but I was writing about you so that'd wierd, and now you think I'm crazy and don't want to be near me or breathe near me... but, I tot-"
I was cut off by him softly pressing his lips to mine with such grace and passion. Love.
"I don't think your crazy, I actually think your rants are so fucking adorable its crazy, and that music that you wrote was beautiful, absolutely incredible, I'm so sorry about your past and ist messed the fuck up that it happened to a beautiful girl like you. People are horrible and I want to protect you from it. Now I'm rambling and, my point is I love you too! " With that I stand up and crash my lips to his and we stand there in the middle of the parking lot connected. Loved by each other.
