weellll sorry i died and whoever is still reading this story, thank you you are awesome but i dunno i kinda think i got the hang of this story and actually know what im doing now so enjoyy fellow readers
I never really understood why different schools had to go to the same field trip in the same day. Like, I get it, I'm not from your school quit staring.
Wait.
Was that?
"Hey are you ok? It seems like you saw a ghost or something?" I could feel Joe behind me wrapping his arms around my waist. Such a nice guy, just, not for me. I smiled and turned towards the museum door. I didn't want him worrying, he'll turn into a paranoid dork.
"No, I'm fine. Let's just go inside with our class"
...
"I don't even know why I thought this would be a fun trip. This sucks ass"
"Now why would you say such a thing, Miles? Enjoy the trip and the beauty that is the past" I could feel Miley watch me as I exaggeratedly pranced around the statues knowing perfectly well this trip is the most boring shit I've ever done. She grabbed my arm, rather hard it kind of hurt, and pulled me towards her so we were now face to face which meant she meant serious shit.
"Shut your mouth before I shove one of these statue's dicks into yours"
Ah, there's my lovely best friend whom I love so much.
"Ew fine I'll stop. Plus I highly doubt that these Greek dudes would like that"
i stopped to find Miley staring at Nick and Nicole sucking their faces not even paying attention to what the guide was saying. Not that anyone else was anyway, it's just that everyone else busied themselves in a less disgusting way. Now I knew what was up Miley's ass. She has been acting very weird, especially every time we were near those two love birds.
"And you're just saying that because on the bus ride Nick kept avoiding you and sucking Nicole's face" Her head whipped so fast a little more and her head would just have been a memory I swear.
"What? Lex, I could care less about Nick and Nicole" Hah.
"Sure, ok. Miles, I know your secret, quit pretending" Her eyes opened so wide I mentally freaked out. Like what the hell, Miles? I guess she thought I would've never figured out about her obvious eye staring problem she had with my brother. I was standing in front of her with my arms crossed staring at her, just waiting for her to show any signs of denial so I could bring out my whole presentation about her crush on Nick. Ew Nicholas.
"What? I have no idea what- quit staring at me like that, okay! I like your brother. Don't judge me, I already know he loves Nicole" she sighs and I know I have to turn into the sensitive best friend and help her out. She turns to me with worry in her eyes, "Is it that obvious though?"
I put my arm around her and squeeze her shoulders. See, I can be nice.
"To me yes, but to Nick. No way. Nick's an idiot, and wouldn't be able to figure anything out." My attempt to make her cheer up succeeds as I see a little smile tug at her lips. She looks at me as if something has just popped in her mind.
"Oh my god, Alex. I hope you don't hate me, I can't really help if I like your brother I just can't live with you hating me and if you do I swear I'll try to maintain myself I just really-"
"Miley, chill. Its okay. Gross, but okay," I put my hands on her shoulder and make her look at me "I could never judge you. You're my biffle" I put on my cutest smile and I know she's better when I see her smile once again.
I'm adorable.
"Thanks, Lex. Now enough about me, where's your boyfriend?" My face completely changes to a frown and hers to the biggest smirk ever.
Bitch. She knows what she did.
"Yeah okay. Ruin the moment why don't you? And I don't know, he's probably looking at his reflection at any possible mirror" She laughs and we start walking to where some other groups of kids were at. The teacher had said we can roam around, as long as we're back for when the bus leaves. We stopped when Miley looked over my shoulder and smirked. What now?
"Well, looks like he has some competition. There's a cute girl over there that seems to look at you more than that boy beside her, who obviously seems like her boyfriend. You know her?"
I turn around and spot a girl with pretty black hair with some perfectly tweezed eyebrows. Whoa, she was beyond cute I should slap Miley for giving her a title when she's obviously more than that. The girl and I make eye contact and her eyebrows lower in confusion. For what, I don't know but even her eyes were pretty.
"Wow she is cute, but I don't know who she is"
"Ooh, is someone crushing on a mysterious cutie?" She gives me the knowing look and I just narrow my eyes at her.
"Psh, no way. Besides, thanks to your set up, I have a boyfriend. But anyway, let's check this place out. I at least wanna learn something."
"Oh, so now you want to learn"
...
Joe would literally not let me go. If I go to this statue, he's right there behind me. If I want water, he's over there, too. I even asked him if I went to the bathroom, would he go there too. I was joking, but when he thought about it, I just stopped him there not really wanting to know what he would say.
I knew I had to be alone after I thought I saw Selena for the second time in this museum. I finally got rid of him when I told him I would meet up with him when I got done with the bathroom, after I specifically told him not to wait up. I would feel bad but, I needed my space. And also I needed to find Selena.
Seeing her made me get my hopes up knowing that I was right and that she was never dead. But if it wasn't her, then I would just give up on my search. I didn't really want to react when I saw her with some brunette so I wouldn't scare her off, but when we made eye contact, I just knew it was her and I had to somehow get her to talk to me. I was confused as to why she didn't recognize me, but I mean, I did change my hair after my trauma that I went through after her disappearance. This was my chance to get my Selena back.
I entered this secluded place where other Greek statues were, trying to figure out what I would say if it really was Selena. I heard some steps coming towards the room so I just moved to observe the statues just in case so I wouldn't seem like a lost loner.
...
"Miles stop"
"No. Not until we find out whom that girl was. She seemed to really take a liking to you"
I sighed. I really didn't want to admit but I was actually curious as to who the girl was. Of course I thought she was pretty, but I didn't want Miley to know that. She would go shitless and try to set me up.
Again.
We were getting away from the group of kids that had crowded up to listen to the guide but we didn't care. That was the point. Once we entered this place where other statues were, I heard boots tapping on the floor and I knew those weren't mine because I was standing, and Miley wasn't wearing any.
"Hey look, there's that girl"
...
I heard voices and I knew by heart that one of them was Selena's. I hope she is. I turned around and I saw her with the same brunette I did minutes ago and knew for sure, that this was my Selena. My body was on auto mode because next thing I know, I was running up to her with the biggest smile on my face. As soon as I got to her, I hugged her so tight because I missed her so much. Butterflies were fluttering in my stomach and I knew I would still get those from her and only her, not mattering how long it has been since I had any contact with her. I was so overwhelmed that I didn't notice her prying me off of her. As soon as I stood alone, she and her friend had the most confused and alarmed faces ever it sort of threw me off. Here I was thinking she would hug me equally as much and regain our lost time together.
"Selena oh my god I haven't seen you in forever. I'm sorry that I didn't try harder in searching for you but I have found you and now we-"
"Whoa. Slow the fuck down. Who the hell are you and why did you pounce on me like if I was your bitch?"
My heart just broke. She doesn't know what she's talking about. She knows who I am. She has to. My heart started pounding so hard it would have popped out in any second if it wanted to and my hands were starting to sweat. No. My Selena never cursed. Not unless she's provoked that is.
She was standing there waiting for an explanation and I opened my mouth, but nothing came out so I closed it and tried again.
"W-what do you mean? Selly, it's me, Demi. You know me" I looked at her searching for any sign telling me that she wasn't serious at all and this was all just a game she was playing. A cruel, cold game.
But nothing came. Her friend was equally as confused but stayed silent. What was going on? She looked back at her friend and then she turned back to me, passed her hand through her hair and sighed, just like Selena used to do when she was confused or stressed.
"Um, I think you have the wrong person" she took her hand and put it in her back pockets, just like Selena, "I'm not this Selena girl"
Yes you are. I chuckled a little.
"Sel, come on stop faking. I know it's you" I was almost in tears. This couldn't be happening.
"Look, I'm not Selena. My name's Alex"
Stop.
"That's impossible. You look exactly like her. It has to be you"
"I'm sorry but, I'm not the girl you're looking for. I hope you find her though." She gave me a sad smile and turned to her friend and left. I just dropped to my knees and stayed there. This couldn't be happening. That is Selena and she's just playing me right now. Is it because she knows I didn't fight for her enough? What else was I supposed to do? They declared her dead I couldn't go out trying to find a girl who they supposedly already claimed gone. But that was it. She's not dead. And she's right here. In the same museum I'm in. Why is she pretending she doesn't know me? Why is this happening to me? Why me? Why now?
...
The walk back to the others was silent. None of us knew what to say. Who would when a really hot girl jumps on you and accuses you of lying about who you are.
Excuuuuse ma'am. I know who I am.
"Listen, Miles, I'm just gonna go to the bathroom and freshen up. I'll meet you later"
"Oh, ok. Be careful." She hugged me and left. I really needed to get my thoughts together. Whoever that girl was, she gave me a weird feeling. I didn't like it. I've never had it before so maybe that's why; it's so new to me.
I started walking towards the restroom so I could be alone with my thoughts for a while before we left. That girl looked so broken, though. Right after I rudely rejected her, she looked like she was gonna break down right then and there. I wouldn't blame her, and oh my god I was completely rude to her too. Now she's gonna think I'm a complete bitch.
Way to go, Alex.
No but she kept saying I looked like this Selena girl. Well, that girl must've been HELLA FINE.
No stop you're not helping.
Maybe I should talk to her. Nah, better not. Don't wanna put myself into something that might give me headaches. Maybe I'll just stay in the restroom and just let people think I have a huge bladder.
ill post next chapter in no later than next year i promiiise
