A/N: Okay, so this just came to me last night, and I know it's short, but I just had to post it on here. I know the summary says it's a oneshot, but it's written in three small parts. In case you can't figure it out on your own, especially since I never wrote any names, part 1 is about Quinn and Mark, part 2 is about Logan, and part 3 is about Quinn and Logan. Please review!
Part 1
She puts a smile on her face simply to help her ignore the wrongs that are being done to her, but everyone knows what's going on behind her false sense of happiness. How could people not notice that he treats her with as much respect as the dirt he walks on? Her fear of being alone and unwanted compels her to stay with him, even though she knows she deserves better.
Yes, she deserves better, but was there anyone better out there that would actually want her? Her, the science geek, the one everyone loves to tease? She keeps a smile on her face, in hopes that one day she will finally get her fairy tale ending.
Part 2
He puts a smile on his face to keep his reputation, but everyone knows he isn't happy. His countless escapades with numerous girls don't seem to manage to fill the void in his heart.
He puts a smile on his face to hide the fact that it's killing him inside to watch the girl he cares about the most get treated like scum. He couldn't tell people that though, or they would be relentless in their taunting. Seriously, the rich, hot jock being in love with the school geek? Nobody would buy it.
He smiles because it's all he can manage to do until he can muster up the courage to tell her how he feels, and hope that she feels the same way.
Part 3
They smile so that people will think everything's normal. They anxiously await their secret lunches and late night meetings together. They don't look or act any different, but everyone can tell they both seem happier. Their smiles seem to fade though, as they realize they can't keep their relationship a secret forever.
Now he wears a true smile on his face as he professes his love to her in front of the entire prom, running to her with all the joy and happiness that a person could experience in a lifetime. She smiles back as they embrace, and she knows she has found the person she wants to spend the rest of her life with.
A/N: It's very short, I know, but I just had to get it out of my head! Also sorry for repeating the word smile so much, lol. Please review and tell me what you thought of it! :)
