Found you

The hospital

~A week later~

Today was the day I had to face Felix at school, and also my friends. I want to tell them what happened, but at the same time I'm too scared. But I at least need to tell them something so they don't question why me and Felix aren't talking.

I decided to get ready, I followed Emmet's advice and purchased concealer. I use concealer as well as wear a turtleneck. It was getting cold anyways so nobody should question it. I check in the mirror one more time to make sure it's covered.

It's completely covered, I sigh relieved and head out the door.

~At school~

I walk up to the entrance at the same spot me, Ace, and Kinsley meet. I see them already there, Felix is nowhere around.

I quickly walked up to them, "hey guys!" I say trying to smile, they can probably tell it's fake.

"Marcel what's wrong?" Ace asks, yeah I thought so. "Uh I'll tell you guys later.....Anyways I really need to head to class early, so i'll talk to you guys later okay?" I quickly ran off towards the school building, I can't tell them I'll just have to make something up.

~During last period~

I was too anxious in class, so I kept tapping my pen. "Could you stop?" I hear one of my classmates say to me, "sorry." I manage to mumble out, I instead start to tap my thigh.

As the time grew closer to the end of the school day I grew more anxious. Please don't let me run into Felix. Just 30 more minutes left of class, and I can get out of here.

I feel a buzz from my pocket and carefully pull out my phone without the professor seeing. It was a text from Kinsley:

Ki: Did you have a fight with Felix? I know you looked upset earlier so I asked Felix what was wrong. But he just froze up and shook his head.

This is not what I need right now, this is just making me more anxious. I have to tell her something.

Marcel: We did, I don't want to talk about it right now. But I'll explain more after school, can you talk to Ace about meeting up?

I put my phone back in my pocket and try to focus in class.

~After class~

I quickly pulled my phone out to see if Kinsley had responded.

Ki: Okay me and Ace will meet you at the entrance of the school after class ends.

I sigh, thank god she didn't make me go to the art room.

I make my way towards the entrance, I keep my head low. I really don't want to make eye contact with anyone right now. I feel myself bump into someone.

I look up to realize who it is, I freeze, not being able to say anything. Of all times I could run into him it just has to be now. Felix doesn't say anything either, he gives me a sad glance and turns away.

He really does hate me, what am I going to do now? I feel my mark burn, dammit this mark has been a pain.

Luckily at home I have Felix's sweatshirts, which at least calm down the throbbing pain a little. But now that I was so close to him I don't think his faded scent is going to help.

I shake my head trying to erase my thoughts and continue heading towards the entrance.

I smile as I see Ace and Kinsley where they promised we would meet up. I think that's the first time I smiled since Friday.
