A/N: I've been watching The Haunted Mask episodes lately and this has really been bothering me, so I just decided to write it. I'll do my best with it, buut it probably won't turn out that great. Please excuse any mistakes and please review! Have a nice day. xxHeartBrokenxx
I sigh as I lean against the side of the school, one foot up against the bricks, my backpack on the ground next to me. I close my eyes and lay my head back on the wall. I'm waiting.
There's only two more days until school is out for the summer, and I have some major plans.
Hi, I'm Chuck Greene. And as previously stated; I'm waiting. Waiting for this girl to walk by. Everyday she comes around here on her way home. Her name is Carly Beth. Carly Beth Caldwell. And she's my mask. The mask that haunts me, because ever since last Halloween, I've been in love with her.
I open my eyes and look around as I hear footsteps coming. And there she is; walking towards me. I give a shaky sigh and the butterflies go crazy in my stomach. Because you see, she's beautiful. Like really beautiful. So beautiful that she's literally taken my breath away before.
"Hey, Chuck," she says as she passes me.
I lean away from the wall saying, "Carly Beth, wait up."
She turns back to me and tilts her head slightly to the side. "What's up?"
"Um, well…" My palms are sweating like crazy as I take a step closer to her. "You see…"
I take another step closer to her and press my lips lightly to hers. She pulls away faster than I can blink.
"I…" She presses her fingers to her lips, avoiding my gaze. "I have to go."
She rushes away and I scoop up my backpack as she disappears from view. My cheeks are beet red and I'm shaking so hard I'm surprised I can even stand, much less take a step.
Well that's just great. I waited so long, worked up so my much courage, and that's what it was met with. Her running away from me. I was going to wait till school was out to make my move, but I just couldn't wait any longer.
As I stalk home my sadness is replaced with anger. I kick a pop can that's lying around and it zings out and hit's a tree, then boomerangs back and hits my cheek, cutting me.
I pull my fingers away from my cheek and wipe some blood onto my shirt. Life truly is unfair!
