The Angel's Delinquent ➪ Shawn Mendes

7{ Cuckoo

Mads' POV 

I was still sitting with Hayes. Carter and Taylor decided to join us. It was about 15 minutes after Shawn and Lele left. 

I was looking out at the ocean, when two people walked by. Shawn and Lele. Shawn was laughing about something Lele said. Then they stopped walking, and Lele placed a kiss on Shawn's cheek.

I don't know why, but it made me sick. I quickly got up, got my bag, and ran to the only place I could think of.

"Mads?" I heard the guys call. I quickly grabbed my skateboard and headed to where I was going.

I finally reached it, and rolled my skateboard in a random direction. I ran as fast as I could, and gives Tyler a big hug. He didn't hesitate to hug back.

"Addie, what happened?" He asked worriedly. I gave him a weird look.

"Addie?" I giggled.

"Yeah, don't you like it?" He asked.

"I love it." I hugged him again.

"Tyler! What did I tell you about bringing peo- Madison? What happened?" Ricky ran up to me. I hugged him too, as he wiped the tears in my eyes. I sat down and leaned against the graffitied wall. Tyler and Ricky joined me, me sitting in between them.

"So what happened?" Tyler asked.

"The stupidest thing." I sighed. I lay my head on Tyler's shoulder.

"What's that?" Ricky asked, pointing to my collarbone, that was exposed because of me tilting my head. "It it a tattoo?" He asked.

"Um, yeah." I said trying to cover it with my hair.

"Can I see?" Tyler asked.

I removed my hair to show him. It was a tattoo of a small Japanese cuckoo.

"Does it mean anything?" Tyler asked.

"Um, not really." I said, partly lying.

"Oh come on. Everything has a meaning." Ricky added.

I sighed in defeat. "I knew this girl once. Her name was Wendy. She has green eyes, and waist length brown hair. Everyone loved her. She was always with me Mark and Justin. One day, we went were shoplifting a 7-11, when police came. One of them pointed their gun at me. They pulled the trigger, but Wendy jumped infrint of me. I watched her die in my arms. She said her favorite thing in the world was a cuckoo bird. She said it symbolizes a loss. She lost both of her parents, so she lived with her older brother. I will never forget that day." I started crying again.

"She was my best friend. I knew her since we were 3, and I knew that she would do anything for me. I deserved to die. She didn't."

I looked down and played with the necklace around my neck. It was Wendy's. The necklace was of an origami swan. She wore it the day she died, and I kept it as a memory.

"Madison?" I looked at where the voice was coming from. It was Taylor. Behind him was Hayes and Carter.

"What did you guys do to her?" Taylor demanded.

"Taylor, stop. They didn't do anything. I was just thinking about Wendy." I defended. Taylor met Wendy before they were good friends.

"I'm sorry." He gave me a hug.

"Mads, the other guys are ready to go home. Come on." Hayes said. I looked back at Tyler and Ricky and gave them a hug.

"Thanks for cheering me up." I smiled.

"Bye, Addie!" Tyler bid, getting him a weird look from Carter, Hayes, and Taylor.

I got my skateboard, then went with the guys back to the beach. When we got there, a vet worried Nash waited for me.

"Where were you!" He yelled.

"With my friends." I answered simply.

"You mean those two guys?" I nodded.

"Those aren't your friends! They're people you just met!" He says this to all of my friends.

"Well maybe you should just leave me and my personal life alone!" Then I ran away. Again.
