Thank you guys so much for bearing through with me through my writer's block. I can't thank you enough. I'm sorry that this is so short but I'm pretty busy studying for finals and everything. I took some of your reviews into consideration and decided to follow up on them. Please Read and Review!
My mind was tired…..And confused. I had spent all night pondering about what to do. When Mel asked me who that guy I was talking too, I lied and told her he was from my government class and was asking about homework. I think she could tell I was lying, but she let it slide.
"Wanda are you okay?" Mel asked me that morning when I stumbled downstairs to breakfast.
"Fine." I said waving my hand dismissively as I sat down.
"Are you sure?" She pressed." Does it have something to do with Ian?"
"It has nothing to do with Ian." I lied." I'm just nervous about a big test that's all."It must have been early in the morning because she didn't detect my fib.
"Well okay," She said, a little preoccupied with her phone." Tell me if you need anything."
I nodded before going upstairs to gather my books. I trudged back downstairs and slammed the door hard on my way out.
"Wanda is that you?" I glanced up to see Jared poking his head out of his car's window which was parked by the curb.
"Ya it's me, sorry for making so much noise." I apologised.
He shook his head." It's okay. Are you going to come in?" He asked, motioning to the door.
I slide into the backseat, taking the muffin Jared offered me." Thanks," I mumbled.
"Jared, could I ask you a question?" I asked him.
"Anything," He answered.
"Well if someone did something bad that you were emotionally affected by, and let's say they asked for forgivenence. Would you forgive them?"
He pondered for a moment." Well I guess it depends." He said," If he already did it once I say don't forgive him. But if it's his second time doing it, then I say dump him like a sack of potatoes unless he's truly remorseful."
He twisted himself so he faced me." But I guess it all depends on the person's feelings." He answered.
I nodded in understanding. What he said made sense. This was Ian's second time hurting me. Perhaps it was just best to leave him. Wipe my slate clean and start over.
"Thanks," I said after thinking deeply.
"Anything for you Wanda."
I managed to avoid any boys until 3rd period. That's when the torture began. I had just seated myself at a desk in the back row when Ian entered. He didn't even glance my way as he chose a seat in the middle, not that far away, but far enough for my liking. Then Mark entered in, and headed straight my way grinning from ear to ear. he plopped into the seat next to me, and I managed to give him a small smile. Mark and I were on good terms. After he found out I was taken by Ian he pouted a little but eventually got over it. Him and I were presently good friends.
"Hey Wanda." He greeted me.
"Mark." I addressed." Is there a reason for being so happy? It's blinding me right now."
Ian was discreetly watching us talk as he conversed with his friends. He kept on looking at us with troubled glances like he wanted to walk up here and stop us.
"Actually there is," He announced." I was wondering if I could ask you a question."
I motioned with my hand." Ask away."
"Well," Mark clasped his hands together and rubbed them in a self-conscious way."I was wondering….."
"Wondering what?" I probed, curious.
"Well wondering if…"
"If?" I pressed on.
"I was wondering if you would go to homecoming with me?" He asked.
I stood there a moment, not really comprehending what he was saying until the words sunk in.
"Wait, you're asking me," I pointed to myself," If I want to go to homecoming with you?"
"Ya," Mark said, sheepishly rubbing the back of his neck." I knew it was a long shot. Look, I'm sorry-"
"Yes." I said without a second thought. The word just came to me.
"Yes?!" Mark looked shocked." You'll actually go with me?"
I nodded before I could change my mind." I haven't had anyone ask me yet, so if you want to go, I'll go with you."
"Yes!" Mark pumped his fist, causing Ian to look over in alarm. He wilted a little when he saw Mark rejoicing happily, as if he knew what Mark asked. Serves you right Ian.
"I won't disappoint you," Mark said still jumping up and down.
I giggled taking a seat, watching Mark. Who knew my one little action could make a person's day? Mark made me feel special in that moment.
"Mr. Anderson if you could sit down right this instant that would greatly benefit this class," The teacher said coming in and giving Mark a glare. Mark nodded quickly before sitting down, and giving my hand a squeeze and winking. He held my hand for the rest of the period.
Ian P.O.V
I knew Mark was going to ask her. There was rumor in first and second period that he was going to pop the question. And when I saw Mark come into 3rd period I knew that the rumors were true. And there was nothing I could do to stop
it. Just sit and watch the show.
"Hi Wanda," I heard Mark say. I bristled. He better get away from Wanda before it got ugly.
After their conversation I heard Mark ask. It was all I could do to not run over there and beat the crap out of that guy.
"Yes," Wanda said. My heart broke into a million of little pieces. I knew then that she had given up hope of ever coming to forgive me.
When Mark made a big show of her acceptance, I started seeing red. It was the last straw when I saw him hold her hand.
Calm down Ian, she's not even your girl anymore.
No, Wanda will always be mine no matter what. I just have to figure out a way to get her back.
Thanks so much you guys! I apologise again for it being so short but I'll definitely be updating sooner and faster. Just bear with me as I go through finals!
P.S What P.O.V do you want me to do next?
