'The Day After with 'My Happy Ending--Avril--To Tyler--EDITED'
Marrin got out of bed and ran down the stairs. She had slept in her clothes, too tired to even change. Her mind wandered, and she began to recollect what had happened the previous night. Again. She dreaded school. Tommorow marked another heartbreak and move in the life of Marrin Elizabeth Travers. She ate her cereal really quickly then slipped into some new clothes. When she had finished, she pondered whether she should walk or not today. She decided she would take a short cut through the woods; no one ever walked through the woods; at least, barley. And every time she'd been there so far, she'd seen a lovley black raven perched on a nearby branch. She'd always brought bread for the Raven; an outcast, like her. A loner. And they'd become friends.
You helped me talk this over
Now
I don't feel like I'm dead
Was it something you
did?
Was it something you said?
He
left me hangin'
In a world so dead
Held
up so high
On such a breakable thread
He
was all the things I thought I knew
And I thought
we could be
He was everything, everything that
I wanted
We were meant to be, supposed to be, but
we lost it
And all of my dreams, so close to me,
just fade away
All this time he was pretending
I'll never get my happy ending
I
said, I'll never get my happy ending
Marrin noticed Tucker
up ahead of her talking to Danny. Danny was speaking in a hushed
voice to Tucker and Tucker was excited. "What
happened?"
"Nothing happened."
"She didn't
KILL you for breaking in last night and eating those chocolate raisen
baked deliciousness?"
"Nope." Danny didn't feel
like telling him about the kiss. He hadn't even told him about the
whole 'kiss on Xmas' deal.
Marrin walked past them, giving a small
wave. She entered the door and ran into a boy named Lyle Gerring. She
looked up. "...Mistletoe..."
Lyle blushed and kissed her
really fast before hurrying off.
Danny smiled a broken smile, then
hung his head. Tucker laughed at Lyle, pointing at him. Lyle would
wait in a bush every Christmas morning, and Kailee came, he'd make
sure they were under the miseltoe. Even though Kailee had a
boyfriend, he'd had a mild crush on her forever. He must have
mistakened Marrin for Kailee. Danny felt a little...firey inside when
he saw that, and looked at his feet.
A senior named Tyler walked
out and was caught under the mistletoe with Marrin before she could
move. She blushed a crimson red. "Do we have to?"
"No,
not unless you want to curse yourself," He joked.
"Ha-ha.
Fine." She stood on he tip-toes and kissed the tall senior on
the cheek, then hurried inside.
Danny winced for a moment, and
his stomach did a flip. Great. Now he was caught between two loves;
Marrin and Sam. Wait---Loves?! What the....
"Aw man.."
He mumbled under his breath.
Sam ran over, her hair combed and
stood next to Tucker for a change. "Hey Tuck! Hey...Danny."
She gave a small wave, and then saw Marrin walk inside. She mentally
breathed a sigh of relief.
He's got his 'girlfriend'
And
I know what she says
She thinks I'm aggravating
But so is she
But she doesn't
know me
Does she even know you?
All
the things she hides from you
All the s that she
gives you
He was all the things I thought I
knew
And I thought we could be
He
was everything, everything that I wanted
We were
meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it
And all
of my dreams, so close to me, just fade away
All
this time he was pretending
I'll never get my happy
ending
I said, I'll never get my happy
ending
Marrin looked out and saw Sam. She looked at her
feet and felt her eyes sting. "I don't stand a chance,"
"Chance
with who?" Asked a voice. The senior, Tyler, stood behind
her.
"Nothing! I mean, no one!" She held back her
tears.
"Hey," He put a hand on her shoulder. "I
know your brother, he's really concerned about you."
"Michael?"
She looked up incrediusly. Her brother was really jerkish.
"Yeah.
He can't focus. He knows your going to get hurt." Tyler waited
for her to speak.
"I will. I always do," She let a tear
fall.
"Hey, hey," He made a fist and bumped her chin up
lightly. "Look up."
"I'm leaving..." Marrin
nodded her head. "I can't go anywhere without having my heart
broken."
"By who this time?"
"Danny
Fenton,"
"That guy is over-estimated. His sister is a
total work-a-holic. Just keep away from him." He put his other
hand on her shoulder. "C'mon-- Let's go get a slurpee at
24/7."
Marrin sniffed. "I guess... But can we take the
back exit?"
"Sure." He pushed the door open.
It's
nice to know that you are there
Thanks for making
me feel like someone cared
And making me feel like
I wasn't the only one
It's nice to know you made me
fell better if all
Thanks for catching me as I fall
And letting me know we were like one
He
was everything, everything that I wanted
We were
meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it
And all
of my dreams, so close to me, just fade away
All
this time he was pretending
I'll never get my happy
ending
I said, I'll never get my happy ending
He
was everything, everything that I wanted
We were
meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it
And all
of my dreams, so close to me, just fade away
All
this time he was pretending
I'll never get my happy
ending
I said, I'll never get my happy ending
I'll
never get my happy ending
I said, I'll never get my
happy ending...
Meanwhile, Danny looked over Sam's shoulder and saw Marrin talking with Tyler, walking towards 24/7. His heart flipped.
