Invisible
Chapter 5
I was crying in the bathroom for like 10 minutes, when Lauren came in saying my first period teacher, Mr.Carter, was looking for me.
"We are starting notes on the Civil War so he wants you to come back... Hey! Maura what's wrong!? Why are you crying?"
I looked in the mirror to see how obviously upset I was before responding. 
"I huh-huh-heard Jake say Kuh-Kuh-Cam is go-go-going out with me as a buh-buh-bet" I said through tears.
Lauren just gave me a big hug and let me cry into her shoulder. "Well Maura, we are going to have to get him back aren't we? We can plan at lunch, but you have to promise not to let Cam know you are in on his plan, okay?"
I nodded my head, knowing I wouldn't have the guts to confront him anyway.
"I'm going to tell Mr.Carter you don't feel well and just need a breather to give you time. Don't worry, Mar, we'll get through this together!"
I gave her a weak smile as she left our embrace and walked out of the lav. 
I decided to walk in the halls to clear my mind a bit, but I was still partially crying. I went to my locker and sat on the ground crying. I thought I was alone, being that first period just started, but I was wrong.  A voice came from behind me and I tried to hault my tears for a minute to turn around and face whoever was there. 
"Hey shouldn't you get to class before you get in tr-- What's wrong with you?" 
It was Jake. Great. He was an A-, B+ social member. I never gave him more than a second glance, and I never heard him speak until today, when I heard him drop the bomb. 
"Ohh, nothing, just ummmm, alergies." I tried to say casually, but I chocked on my tears as I talked.
"You're definitely not that alergic to anything. Nothing in the enviornment in 1st period changed"
He wasn't going to give up was he?
"Let's just say I heard something you said." I said glaring at him.
He stopped to think for a second, and then his mouth dropped. 
"Y-y-you heard me?! Oh Maura, you weren't supposed to know! Please don't get mad at me. Cam is a jerk. I would never treat a girl like that. Especially a girl like you." 
"How do you know this is a bet? Why can't something go right for me for once? Just once. I was waiting on this FOREVER!" I broke down crying into Jake's shoulder, even if I didn't trust him completely.
"Maura, even the best fall down sometimes. You are beautiful! You're like the apple at the top of the tree, that is the tastiest but you haven't found the guy who was brave enough to venture up yet."
I laughed through my tears, "I'm so pathetic you need to use Drake quotes at me? hahah-cry-ahha"
He lifted my chin, "Maura. Don't doubt yourself. You don't realize the impression you can make on a guy. I hope you know you always have me to cry on. I want you to come over my house tonight okay, we need to talk." 
He wrote his address on my hand as I just nodded like a starstruck idiot.  I had no idea what I was going to do...
