I rose my camera, panning the parking lot. From a distance, I zoomed in on Mimi, confidently walking up to the school in black boots, tights, a skirt and a black, edgy, tank top with the name of a band that I didn't recognize on it. Covering her top was a leather jacket with to many zippers on it for me to count. I smiled at the familiar face and joined her in going inside.
"Here's Mimi, walking inside the building, ready to suck faces with Rodger at any given moment." She rolled her eyes at my intellectual comment, turning to face me with a mischievous glint in her eye.
"At least I have someone to suck faces with" she said as she playfully raised her eyebrow.
"Whatever" I mumbled.
"Come on, I want to see if Angel's here." I followed her to Roger's and my locker. Maureen, Collins and Roger where already there. I zoomed in on the group of them together, then getting a closer look at each of their faces.
"Hey" Mimi said, whispering in Rogers ear while simultaneously wrapping her thin arms around him. He continued playing, focused on the song as her face fell. I moved on to Collins, who was glancing around, waiting for something before moving on to Maureen, listening in on her phone call.
"Pookie baby, pick up! I know your mad but just listen. I'm sorry, let me make it up to you, I'll do anything! I swear- I'll be your slave! Just call me when you get the chance or no!! Talk to me when you get here-" beep the phone said, cutting off her call. I laughed at her dramatic pouting.
"Mark stop laughing!" Maureen yelled "or I swear I'll-"
"Joanne" I said pouting at the person at the end of the hall. The drama queen, turned around, running towards her current ex-girlfriend to talk, completely forgetting her threat.
I turned the camera back to Roger who had placed his gutair on the ground as he talked to Mimi. I sighed, I hated all the couples in this group. At least I had Collins I thought, I smiled at him as he came towards me, opening his bag. "You want some food?"
My stomach growled at the thought. "Yes!" Laughing at my quick response, he passed me a bag cheeze-it's. I stopped my camera and put it aside as I devoured the snack. I was starving.
"You act like you haven't eaten in years!" Collins said. I stopped stuffing my face full of food for a second to give him a look and continued on my way. I believe in the philosophy of no crumb left behind.
"You're a god send!" I said once I finished eating "I think my stomach will be eternally great full." He laughed, grabbing my empty bag and throwing it away. "Wow, you're in a good mood."
"I just feel very enthusiastic on how things will go down today" He said as he leaned against the wall.
Smiling, I turned towards the area where Joanne and Maureen where. It looked like the drama queen was flirting pretty heavily. I remember when she used to do that to me, I mean, it's a good thing we broke up but sometimes, I find myself wishing I had someone. Just so I won't be alone. I sighed and watched them make up then come towards us. They're arms where linked together, and Maureen had a wide smile on her face.
"You guys back together?" Collins asked with a smirk on his face, basically implying he already new the awnser.
"Of course!" Maureen said while laying butterfly kisses on Joanne's shoulder. Roger snorted at them but went unnoticed by everyone but me and Mimi. She chuckled and watched him put his gutair away. He looked up, eyes meeting Mimis and just stared. I turned back, not wanting to watch the lovey dovey couples stuff.
Picking up my camera, I zoomed in on Collins as he glanced at his watch, then looked around. I guess he found what he was looking for when he smiled. Walking forward, he disappeared into the crowd of students and I frowned. I was alone with all the couples. Deciding it was better if I fiddle with my camera then watch my friends make out, I started to zoom in on faces in the crowd. The camera met a girl talking to her friends, then a guy with a giant Mohawk, which I then moved on to angels face, holding hands with Collins. My stomach turned, telling me they looked closer then they did yesterday.
"Angel!" Mimi yelled excitedly then paused "what happened?" Angel frowned and I then noticed the cuts and bruises on his face. Angel, not knowing what to do glanced up at Collins for help as he bit his lip.
"Nothing." The anarchist awnsered plainly while holding on to him tighter. Mimi didn't look convinced but before she could say something, Maureen interrupted.
"So, you guys a couple know?"
"Shhh" Joanne said "it's not you're business."
"Pookie stop that, I can speak when I want to speak-"
"Yeah we're a couple." Angel said, effectively stopping a fight from happening. I frowned doing the math in my head. Everyone in this group had someone, except me.
"Yaayyy!!!! We could do a triple date or something!" Maureen said, while jumping up and down.
I zoned out then, lost in thought. I doubt they noticed anyway, they usually don't. Why did it have to be me, the one no one wants, the one no one dates. Why couldn't it be someone else so I didn't have to be lonely. Why does it feel, like I'm just there to record other people's life, other peoples dreams, other peoples story while mine just didn't exist. Why does it have to be me.
"Hey mark, the bell rang, ya coming?" Roger asked "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine" I said. I lied.
