A/N: ... heh... sorry about this... huge delay... I have no excuse, but... please don't kill me? It's been so long since I've looked at this thing, so if any of the people are out of character, tell me please? If I have enough complaints, I think I'll change the chapter. Thanks.
"Oh my GOD, what happened to you?" John exclaimed, staring at my face. I winced and tried not to laugh. The look on his face was priceless. "You look like crap." He whispered, smirking.
"Wow, thanks." I said, sarcastically. I brushed my hair away from my face and continued looking for a seat in the crowded lunchroom. I sat down on a chair and placed all my books onto the table. John sat down right next to me. I stared at him.
"What?" He asked, as he took off his bookbag and placed it onto the floor.
"This is the first time ever that you have sat next to me. What's up?" He grinned.
"No reason." He got up. "You getting lunch?" He asked. I shook my head. Memories of the lunch I got the first day of school still haunted me. I watched him as he went to wait in line. I sat there thinking about yesterday again, about what happened. Why can't I remember anything? "Hi." I looked up. It was Mandy. I forced a smile. I still don't know why I told her about what I did in Canada.
"Hi." I replied. "You want a seat?" I asked, offering her a seat next to me. He smiled and sat down next to me.
"What happened to you yesterday? I couldn't find you after lunch"
"I don't know." I whispered, thinking.
"Hey." I looked up to see John. He was staring at Mandy. "What the hell are you doing here?" I stood up. "What the hell are you doing?" I asked him. "Maybe I should leave now." Mandy said, getting up. I pushed her back down. She looked at me, confused.
"Let her leave." John said, glaring at Mandy.
"She's my friend, and last time I checked, you were just a stranger to me." I said. "I don't even know why the hell you're sitting next to me all of a sudden." He stared at me. "I told you to-" "You told me to stay away from her but why do I have to listen to you?" I helped him finish his sentence and just stared at him. People were starting to look at us now. He grabbed his bookbag off the floor and left. I sat back down next to Mandy.
"You... consider me your friend?" She asked. I bit my lip. "I think so." I said, hesitantly. She smiled.
I sulked back to my apartment, staring at my feet. My teacher had yelled at me yesterday, asking me why I was cutting. I was about to tell her that I was kidnapped and I have no idea what the hell happened, but I saw her face and decided that she would believe me more if I told her I was abducted by aliens. I just told her that I felt sick and decided to cut class. She didn't believe that neither. I didn't even bother to listen to her talk about what she was going to do to me since I cut. Maybe she told me to see her after class, but I don't know. Right after the bell rang, I ran out the door. I didn't really like her anyways. I continued walking towards the apartment door and suddenly bumped into someone. I started to apologize and realized that it was John. I looked around. I was all alone and my apartment door was right behind him. I arched an eyebrow.
"What are you doing?" I asked him.
"Waiting for you." He replied.
"How the hell did you know that I lived here?" I asked, getting a little freaked out.
"I just... know." He said, staring at the ground. I tried to walk around him but he just stood right in front of me. "Look, I'll be gone after this, but please, stay away from Mandy." He said. "Why?" I asked.
"She's... crazy." He said, finally. I stared at him. He took a deep breath. "Look, I don't really want to tell you everything that happened okay, just please stay away from her." He started to walk away but I grabbed onto his arm.
"You have to tell me why. You can't just tell me to stay away from her for no reason. If the only reason is that she's crazy, then I'm still going to be friends with her. I need a better reason than that. You know, right now, I think you're a freaking psycho, you know that? I have no idea how, but you happen to know where I live, and you're trying to keep me away from Mandy. And from what I heard, you also knew Lisa, for god's sake. I think you're a freaking murderer!" I yelled. He stared at me and I stared back. Suddenly, he walked away. I just stared at his retreating form until he totally disappeared. I grabbed my keys from my pockets and opened my apartment door. Right now, I need to take a really long bath.
