Chapter 24
"But still you shouldn't --"
"You don't want me here?"
"No. That's not what I meant."
"Then? Samuel do you mind me sitting here?"
"Nope." He answered still not looking at us.
"See? He doesn't mind. What is wrong Marcus?
You don't love meanymore?" I said feigning hurt.
"Oh no-no--"
"And here I thought Marcus and Giara were for forever and ever.
WhyMarcus? Why?"
"Oh no pretty lady, that's not what I meant.
" He said talking myhands in his and pulling them to his chest. "I will always love you.
Iloved you then, I love you now and I will love you forever.
Marcus and Giaraare always gonna be forever and ever.
" We were staring into each others?eyes like it was a romantic scene of a 90's movie.
We both burst out laughingcausing everyone to look at us.
"You guys are crazy." Samuel said first time looking up from hisbook.
"Yeah we know. At least we don't study in lunch room instead of talking tofriends.
" Marcus said.
"I'm not studying.
I'm just reading."
"Yeah reading and studying it's all same.
" Marcus said waving himoff. We both rolled our eyes at that.
It's useless correcting him.
"What are you reading by the way?
" I asked. He lifted up the book toshow me the title.
"Ah The Merchant of Venice."
"Oh!
Oh! I know this one. It's the Shakespeare's one right?
The one withthe merchant and his friend Antonio.
"
"Yes but Antonio is the merchant and his friend's name is Bassanio.
"I correct him.
"Yeah whatever. At least I got the name.
"
"Yeah you are right. Its quite big achievement for you to remember that.Especially with your pea sized brain.
" Samuel said snickering.
"Yes. Wait- what?
No I don't have pea sized brain. Stop laughing you both.Ugh!
!" He huffed.
"Aww honey don't be sad.
We can understand your? situation. I still loveyou the same don't worry.
" I said pinching his cheeks.
"Yeah, we still love you.
" Samuel agreed and again with both burstout laughing.
Marcus was trying hard not to laugh but he couldn't, he joinedus.
The bell rang again signalling the end of lunch time.
We stood up soberingfrom our laughter session.
"Thank you." Marcus said.
"Huh?
For what?"
"For joining us, defending me and for cheering me up.
"
"You don't need to thank me for that.
I was already bored with grumpypants on my side.
And you know that I can't live without you Marcushoney.
" I said pouting.
"Oh I know pretty lady.
But still thanks." He said chuckling.
"Maybe you should talk to him.
"
"Maybe I should not. He needs to get his head straight and realise thathis girlfriend is a total cheatin-" He stopped himself.
"A total cheating ass." I completed his sentence.
"I know."
"What? How?"
"When I was going through school cameras I saw her and that Kyle enteringa empty classroom.
I had a doubt but you saying? that just confirms mydoubt.
"
"Fucking cheaters." He hissed.
"Why didn't you just tell that to Jay rather than fighting.
"
"I can't. I don't wanna break his heart when he thinks that he loves her.I can't see him hurt.
"
"But not telling him the truth when you know is going to hurt himmore.
"
"I know but I can't. I don't have any proof.
And after what happened todayI don't think he's going to believe me without any proof.
"
"You don't worry about that. I think he will believe you.
You hisbestfriend, just give him time to cool down a little bit.
"
"I will think about it."
"You should. " We parted ways to go to class.
