Ned was sitting in the cafeteria, eating his ham sandwich when he saw Adrienne walk in. With Seth, his arm around her shoulders. Ned felt his eye begin to twitch with anger.
Coming out of my cage I've been doing just. Gotta be down, cause I want it all. It started with a kiss, how'd it end up like this? It was only a kiss, only a kiss.
He pretended to ignore her, as Seth kissed her on the cheek, going to his own table. Adrienne approached them, Mind if I join you guys?" Everyone welcomed her except Ned who was sucking down his juice.
Now I'm falling asleep, and she'd calling a cab. While he's having a smoke, and she's taking a drag.
"So you're going out with Seth?" asked Moze. "Yeah I guess so, he's very sweet." Ned scoffed, "And dense and shallow." Adrienne flushed with anger. "You have no right to talk about someone that way." The rest of the table looked back and forth between them, watching the two bicker. "Why are you acting like this Ned?" "If you haven't figured it out yet, then maybe it doesn't matter!" Then in a hushed tone he muttered, "Maybe nothing matters."
Now they're going to bed, and my stomach is sick. It's all in my head, but she's touching his chest now. He takes off her dress now. Let me go.
Ned left the table, leaving Adrienne's mind to race. She felt it in her chest what was happening to her, and she ran to the restroom. For once she was grateful the teachers gave her a little bit of special treatment. She opened her shirt, injecting the medicine. The relief was almost instant, like a weight pulled from her.
I just can't look it's killing me, taking control. Jealousy, turning saints into the sea. Turning through sick lullaby, choking on your alibi.
As the medicine settled in, she started to sob. "It's just not fair, nothing is anymore." Adrienne finally had her sobbing controlled, and gave herself a once over in the mirror. She went to her locker, unaware that Ned was trying to rehearse an apology for her. But before he could even muster up the courage to approach her, Seth intersepted. "Ready to go?" Adrienne nodded, not trusting what words would escape from her lips.
But it's the price I pay, destiny is calling me. Open up my eager eyes, cause I'm Mr. Brightside.
