Micah's Story Chapter 10: A New Beginning
**Disclaimer** For the tenth time, no I don't own Micah. Anyone else from Middleburg Heights is mine, so there you go. Umm, Enjoy!
Marie looked at me with tears in her eyes, and asked if I was sure that I wanted to hear about what was wrong. "yeah I do. You know that I wouldn't have asked if I didn't care. please tell me."
She took a deep breath, and told me what had happened. Her and Dave had gone to get something to eat, and while they were waiting for their food, a girl had run up to Dave and thrown her arms around him. when Marie asked what the hell did she think she was doing, the girl had said that she was Dave's girlfriend, and had pictures form their last date, which had been at a carnival. Marie had stood there, shocked, until Dave had told her that it was true, and then she ran to the treehouse, where she had been since.
"Oh, Marie, I'm so sorry. I wish that you didn't have to see that. It wasn't fair to you at all. " She looked at me and asked what was wrong with me. I decided to tell her about the dream, and what I thought it meant. when I finished, I was in tears, and she had moved over to where I was. I put my arms around her and said "Maybe we need to teach Dave a lesson." I thought for a few minutes, and then had the perfect plan. "Do you still like Dave?" she nodded and said yeah. "Well, maybe all we have to do is make him jealous. Then he'll want you back." I thought about how painful this was going to be for me, but I didn't care. it would get me closer to her, and maybe make her realize that she liked me.
(AN~Who wouldn't like you Micah?)
The next day we decided to start our plan. Marie and I walked down the street, holding hands, and said hi to everyone we saw. We made sure that we walked by Dave's house, but that wasn't really out of our way, because we were going to Joey's then to Steph's. To our advantage, Dave was outside, and when we walked by, he didn't notice our hands, and he walked up to us.
"Hey Baby, what's up? What are we doing tonight?" She gave him an icy look. "What's wrong? Is it that girl? We went on that date while you were showing Micah around town, I figured that if you had a date, so should i. It didn't mean anything. I promise." He smiled. She smiled too, and stepped up closer to him.
"You know what, Dave? That girl may or may not have meant anything to you, but if you really cared about me, you never would have gone with her. I was showing Micah around because he knew no one, and because I had broken a promise that I made to him, because of you, and I wanted to pay him back. That was one of the best days that I have had in a long time, because he didn't know anything about this place, and it felt good to be able to show and tell him." Dave looked stunned. "Oh, and Dave, we aren't doing anything tonight, I'm going somewhere with Micah." She smiled at me, a genuine smile.
"Oh, so oyu're going to blow me off for this psycho crazy killer boy? is that really what you want? Come on. I'm one of the hottest guys in this city, you know that. and pale boy Micah is the newbie. He isn't anyone. you know that, too. You're just trying to make me jealous. Well, it's not working. If you really want to date prettyboy Micah, go ahead, see if I care." He turned around and walked away. Marie looked at me, and then we continues to walk down the street.
For the next few weeks, we continued the charade of being a couple, and I must say that we got a whole lot closer. Things were working out better then I ever expected, and I was glad. Marie stopped mentioning Dave's name every time that we talked, and she kinda always moved closer to me whenever we were together, even if no one else was around. one day, she was talking to me, and she told me that she was glad that we had been able to get closer. I smiled, and told her that I was glad too. she stood up and pulled me with her, and she hugged me before she went home. About an hour later, I saw her walk out the door and get into her car. she drove off, and then I walked away from the window. A few hours later, the car pulled back into her driveway, and she was in it. It was about 9 PM when the phone rang, and Danny yelled that it was for me.
"Hello?" I said "Who is this," the voice on the phone said hi, and told me that it was Jenny. "oh hey, Jen. what's up?"
"Not a lot, Micah. But I have something to tell you. I promised that I wouldn't say a word, but I have to say something. You still like Marie, right?" Hell yes I did, and I told jenny that in as many words. "OK, that's good. See, she was just here, and she told me all about your plan for her to get Dave back, and as soon as she was done, I knew that you didn't want her to be back with Dave, you were just doing it for yourself, am I right?" The girl was smart, and she knew it. I told her the truth.
"Yes, that was my plan, and I think that it's working," i hoped it was working.
"Well, Micah, it is working. She doesn't want Dave anymore, she wants you. But she doesn't know how to tell you, because she thinks that you don't like her." Jenny and I talked for about twenty minutes about what to do, and when I got off of the phone, I had another plan. I wasn't going to come straight out and say something to Marie, I was going to go along with whatever she did, and see what happened with that. I hoped that what was going to happen would happen at the right time. I picked up the phone again, and called Marie. "Hello, Marie? It's me. Do you wanna go to the fair tomorrow? It'll be fun, and maybe dave'll be there."
It was a date.
