it's all in the way she walks
~he knows her better than anyone ~
Nacy.
A/N: Inspired by my friends explaining that I walk certain ways when I'm thinking about certain things. I dissected my feelings and came up with this. Thank you Lori for being an awesome Beta.
Macy walks down the hall, a dazed look on her face
She's got a slight skip in her step
And a smile stretching from ear to ear
She laughs when Stella asks her why she's so happy
And then turns and bounces away
Acting like a ray of sunlight, people smiling at her in return
Macy is beaming
Nick knows Macy is feeling !happy!
And !happy! Macy is a carefree Macy
So he just watches her and asks how much sugar she put on her cereal this morning
She rolls her eyes
But he notices her small giggle and wink before she skips away
&&&
Macy struts over to the bench, grabbing her water bottle
She's biting her lip
And her fists are clenched
She's snips at Stella when she asks her why she's upset
And then turns and huffs away
Acting like a hurricane, barking orders across to her teammates
Macy is demanding
Nick knows Macy is feeling o u t of c o n t r o l
And o u t of c o n t r o l Macy is a s.t.r.e.s.s.e.d Macy
So he just tells her not to worry and take some deep breaths
She yells at him to shut up
But he notices her take a deep breath and smile before she serves
&&&
Macy's hips stop moving to the music, and she pulls away from the guy she was with
She's walking tiredly to a table in the club
And her arms are wrapped around herself
She shrugs when Stella mouths 'What's wrong?' to her
And then she takes a sip of her drink and starts looking around at the people in the room
Acting like the clouds, half expecting sunshine and half expecting rain
Macy is analyzing
Nick knows Macy is feeling c-o-m-p-a-r-e-d
And c-o-m-p-a-r-e-d Macy is a (insecure) Macy
So he walks over and sits down next to her, telling her how beautiful she looks
She shakes her head
But he notices her small smile and they sit there the rest of the night making fun of all the sluts
&&&
Macy drifts down the stairs, over to her locker
Her shoulders are hunched
And she has circles under her eyes
She says she had a lot of homework when Stella asks why she looks so dejected
And then she numbly turns and walks away
Acting like drizzles of rain, slowly moving around in a dreary state
Macy is irrationalizing
Nick knows Macy is feeling [scared]
And [scared] Macy is sleepless Macy
So he tells her that her dad will come back because he always does
She sighs
But he notices her smile a couple of days and bites his tongue to refrain from saying 'I told you so'
&&&
Macy walks quickly past everyone, and to the field
She's not talking
And her eyes are glazed over
She shakes her head when Stella asks why she's being so quiet
And then she blows everyone off and quickly hurries past
Acting like a thunderstorm, fast as lightening and rain threatening to fall
Macy is stressing
Nick knows Macy is feeling :overwhelmed:
And :overwhelmed: Macy is a -sad- Macy
So Nick rubs her back while she cries and tells her everything will be ok
She just cries some more
But he notices her whispering comforting words to herself throughout the day
&&&
Macy walks at a steady pace, oblivious to the world
She's humming
And her arms dangle loosely by her legs, tapping her thighs
She ignores Stella when she's asked what she's thinking about
And she continues to hum her pointless melody as she walks
Acting like summer rain, relaxed and steady
Macy is dreaming
Nick knows Macy is feeling absentminded
And absentminded Macy is a s-e-n-s-i-t-i-v-e Macy
So Nick tells her not to worry about what everyone says and makes her eat lunch
She just tells him she wishes she could be perfect
But he notices how she eats anyway and returns to her clumsy self by that afternoon
&&&
Macy bounds down the hall, muscles tense
She's running her hands through her hair continually
And her cheeks are flushed
She shrugs off Stella's grasp when her arm is grabbed
And continues to tap her foot anxiously and her eyes dart around frantically
Acting like the wind, flouncing around everywhere
Macy is worrying
Nick knows Macy is NERVOUS
And NERVOUS Macy is a {jittery} Macy
So Nick tells her to calm down that everything will be fine
She gives him a bunch of what-ifs
But he smiles and is the first one to hug her once she wins the softball championship
&&&
Macy stands in the room, arms crossed
Her head is slightly down
And her lips are twisted into a small frown
She looks over at Stella who is laughing with Joe and a group of people
And watches the punch swish in her plastic cup while sighing dejectedly
Acting like an earthquake, unsettled and unwanted
Macy is doubting
Nick knows Macy is n e e d y
And n e e d y Macy is a L0NELY Macy
So Nick joins her and talks to her, knowing she needs a friend
She thanks him
But he pretends that he doesn't know what she's thanking him for
&&&
Macy glides through the crowd, with a small smile gracing her lips
Her face is practically glowing
And her eyes are full of compassion
Stella looks at her knowingly and Macy just shoots a joking glare at the blond
And continues on her mission, searching the room
Acting like snow, hasty and calm at the same time
Macy is striving
Nick knows Macy is D E T E R M I N E D
And a D E T E R M I N E D Macy is a (win)ning Macy
So when she sees Nick, she runs right up to him
She reaches him and hugs him
But he kisses her
&&&
Macy prances around with a smile on her face
Her arms are hanging loosely
And her eyes are lighting up more and more with every step she takes
Macy is loving
And it's Nick's favorite e m o t i o n; *weather*+description&w a l k yet
I've never really been able to do endings. They just kind of fall apart. The whole story wasn't my favourite, but it helps me understand myself in some sense. I hoped you liked this though. Tell me what you thought and review? It would mean a lot. Thank you.
