✨Chapter One:In The Crowd✨

There is Macie, yes she looks younger then 16, but this is how I imagine her.😊

✨Chapter One: In the Crowd✨

                  As me and Anna walk into the school, my hand is grabbed by someone.

"Let me go." I say grabbing the persons hand off my arm and looking up.

"Oh, Hey Justin." I say surprised and smiling.

"Sorry for scaring you, Mace. I was just trying to talk to you before you went into the school." He says putting his hands in his pockets.

"Sure." I tell him as we move to the side.

"Jasmine wanted to know if you were going to Prom.." He tells me and I look around then back at him.

"Yeah, I got my dress already. Why? Haven't we already decided to go together?" I ask him and he sighs looking anywhere but at me.

"She's got a date." He answers and I purse my lips.

"Oh..Well I guess I'll just have to find someone else.." I say slowly starting to smiling.

"Alright well see you later, Mace." He says smiling and walking away.

After he leaves, I let out big sigh and drop my head.

Ever since freshman year, where I didn't get asked by someone to prom, me and Jasmine have had a pact to go. And Now she broke it.

Anyways, as I walk to my first hour class, Math, I see Brayden Stone.

Brayden has been a friend of mine since I was a baby. His sister, Kyla was the 1st best friend I made.In 6th grade, Jasmine and Justin's parents tried homeschooling them. So it was just me and Kyla until halfway through 7th grade.

It didn't work.

Anyways, I walk over to my seat, sit down, and tap Brayden's shoulder.

"Why are you in here? Your a College Student."  I ask and he turns around smiling. 

"I'm helping out the teachers for extra credit." He tells me and I nod.

"Well what classes are you helping in?" I question as he hands me his slip.

"Your basically in most of my class." I say facepalming myself.

"Maybe I'll just stay around you then." He reply's with a big smile.

"Yay..."  I say as he turns back around.

"Uggh." I mumble as the teacher walks in and Jasmine runs up to sit by me.

"I'm so so sorry for bein late, Mace." She tells me as she tries to catch her breath.

"I don't care jasmine. You broke our pact from freshman year." I reply sadly.

"I'm sorry Macie...I really am. It's just, I got asked! And I can't believe it." She beams as she gets her notebook out.

"And I'm so happy for you, Jazz. But I'm gonna be lonely. Just like at homecoming in Freshman and sophomore year." I whine.

Freshman and sophomore year her parents didn't trust her to go to homecoming in each year so I was alone. But after homecoming I would go to her house and watch movies with her.

"Just please leave me alone for the day." I tell her and she sighs going back to watching the teacher.

After class, I pick up my stuff and walk towards my locker.

"Mace, wait up!" I hear someone yell behind me.

"Why me?" I question looking up at the ceiling and shaking my head.

"Yeah?" I answer Brayden.

"Let me help you with your stuff. I saw that your ankle has been hurting." Brayden beams.

"Okay..? All I did was fall on the Ice." I mutter quiet enough so he can't hear me.

Once we reach my English class, he sets our stuff down and pulls out a chair all the way in front. 

Thank gosh.

"Guess who's here!" I hear a voice yell.

I look towards the door and see Thea Thomas. 

Thea Thomas is a sophomore, a year below me. She is 15 and loves video games. She loves to pick fights and will talk to any guy she sees and will develop a "crush" on them right away.

She is really annoying and she just irks me.

"Oh, hey Brayden. Why are you in here?" She asks Brayden as she sits by him.

"Haha sucker!" I sing as the bell rings.

"I'm sorry I'm late!" Another one of my friends, Alexis, yells as she comes up to sit by me.

"This is your last warning, Ms. Parker." Mr. Jones tells her.

She gulps and nods.

"Okay class, Today we have a  college student with us to help anyone who doesn't understand some of the new concepts we are starting. Brayden is an Honor Role student he is working for extra credit for teaching degree and he is helping for money as well." Mr.Jomes tells all of us.

That explains why Brayden, who graduated last year, is back in our school.

*45 minuets later*

"Okay class your homework is Page 459 Questions 10-50." Mr. Jones shouts over the bell as it rings.

(3 more classes later)

"Finally, lunchtime!" I cheer as I run to my locker and put my stuff away.

Today, I had brought subway for lunch. 

Sitting at my table, Jasmine,Alexis, and my best friend since I was 7, Stephanie, came and sat down.

"So who's been helping you around today?" Steph asks as she stuffs her face with her muffin. Her chocolate muffin.

"Brayden Stone. His sister is Kyla." I reply quietly.

The summer before freshman year Kyla got sick. We didn't know what it was at first. She started throwing up and having high fevers.

Brayden would stay at the hospital everyday after school. I would come every Friday, Wednesday, and Monday.those were my days with her.

On June 20th,she was diagnosed with Stage three Lukimia. I cried for 3 days after I found out. She had till homecoming to live.

I tried to get the school to let us have the homecoming early so she could go before she got really sick. They planned two. One in August and one in October.

I was her homecoming date. 

On September 29th...she died.

Kyla was my friend since I was in diapers and ever since she died, Brayden hasn't teased me as much as he used to when Kyla was alive. He went with me to the homecoming in the first week of October.

It just wasn't the same though.

My 1st best friend was gone..

"Why is he starting this again?" Stephanie asks to no one in general.

"Who knows.." I reply.

"Prom is in a month."Alexis says wiggling her eybrows.

"Oh gosh. He would never ask me." I say and as soon as I say that he sits down right next to me.
