Marley Benson is Pathetic

MARLEYI am pathetic. So much so that I should probably get it tattooed on my forehead because everyone can already see it.And I don't need anyone to tell me because I already know. Maybe I should feel ashamed or sad for pining over a beautiful boy who is already taken, and maybe deep down inside, I do.It doesn't stop me from admiring him from afar, though. There's no shame in looking, right?There might be shame in daydreaming and wishing that it was me he looked at, but no one has to know that.And so what if it makes me look pathetic, it's no one's business but my own.Besides, Luca Valentine looks way too hot in his blue t-shirt. A lot hotter than the green one he wore yesterday. It would be a shame for him not to be looked at."You're staring," Lilith hisses, snapping her fingers in my face. Her red painted fingernails catches my attention, and I blink. "Stop it. You're getting creepy."Lilith tosses her equally vibrant red hair over her shoulder, a curly strand catching on

Billy's Burgers

MARLEYBilly's Burgers is the most popular fast food diner in all of Redwoods.It's safe to say that every popular click comes here to eat after school, including Luca and his posse. And wherever Luca goes, I go. Not because I stalk him, but because he has great taste in food. Lilith sits across from me as she patiently taps her forefinger against the table. Although it's routine for us to race here before the after school traffic can beat us, to wait for Luca and his friends to arrive, Lilith is always grumpy until we order. And me, not being Luca's stalker, always forces us to wait to order until he arrives so that I can stand behind him and pretend I'm a part of his group.Lilith likes to call me insane. I prefer the term strategic.The front bell goes off and I glance over my shoulder, biting my lip when I see him walk in with his football playing friends behind him. I swear his contagious smile brightens the room. His blonde curly hair shines in the sun's light, and I swear

MARLEY'S POVAres' words have been stuck in my head ever since he said them.'Who the hell flirts with their cousin's boyfriend anyway?'Me. I do, Marley Benson the Whore.I scowl as I walk into school, what does it matter to him anyway?We've never spoken before, we don't even know each other, why does he all of a sudden have an interest in who I talk to? He should mind his own business and leave me alone.Sighing, I glance down the hall and when I don't see him, I walk to my locker. Bumping into him is the last thing I want to happen.As I get my text book out for my first class, I peer up and down the walkway in search of him. I don't need him ruining my morning by shaming me for something he doesn't understand. I shame myself enough as it is."Who are you avoiding?" I jump and turn to glare at Lilith. Her hands are shoved into the pockets of her black and red pleated skirt. Her black shirt is tucked into it and she tugs at the choker around her neck that has a moon charm danglin

A Party

Thunder sounds loudly from outside. Peering outside of my bedroom window, I take in the dark clouds in the sky. Another deafening boom and then a stream of blue lightning strikes down, creating an eerie glow on the woods outside the house.I love this kind of weather. It gives the trees a haunting aesthetic and I love nothing more but to sit at my window with a good book.Lightning streaks across the clouds once more and I spot a shadowed figure at the edge of the tree line. Squinting my eyes, I peer down at it, and make out the black dog with blue eyes that seem to glow in the darkness.What is a dog doing out there? Could it be a stray looking for shelter from the poor weather? Grabbing my coat, I quickly run downstairs."There's a dog outside!" I exclaim to my mother from where she sits on the couch. "Can I bring it inside?"The skeptical look has me speaking once more before she can answer, "Just until the storm passes, please!" She sighs and brings a hot cup of tea to her lips
