Is This Real? - Izell Stiles (good fiction books to read TXT) 📗

The Letter

I sighed as I walked through the hallways, my steps echoing slightly in the abandoned hallway.  I scratched my head of blue hair. I dyed it recently because of boredom. Surprisingly, my parents didn't care. 

 

"Izell!"

I turned around to find my best friend and crush, Marcus McCollum walking towards me. I smiled and waved. He waved back. "I'm soooooo glad that this day is almost over!!!" I said loudly. Marcus nodded. "Yeah, definitely." He chuckled. I reached in my pocket and and pulled out a letter with his name written on it. "This is an invite to a party that I'm having tonight." I handed it to him. He smiled. "OK..." He put on a weird face. "I'll see you later, my lover!" He said jokingly. I made the same face he did. "OK! See you later!!" Marcus walked away, leaving me alone to think on my own thoughts.

I squealed. I skipped away while humming like the gay guy I was.

 

Time Skip Shit To The Party~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

 

I was setting up the table with plates and forks as my other friends sat on the floor, talking with each other. There was (these are actual people) Tyler, Chalynne, Cheyenne, and Anita. 'I wonder were Marcus is...' I thought to myself as I set the last plate, which was for him. I looked at everybody, rubbing my hands together. "Alright! Let's party!!" 

 

 

 

 

This chapter isn't very long, I know, but I thought this was better than nothing...

The Games

 

We all sat in a circle while waiting for an idea to pop in our heads for what we should do next. I held my chin in my hands. I groaned. ' Why isn't he here yet!!!' I screamed in my head. Just as I finished the thought, the door opened, revealing Marcus with a bag and a couple wrapped boxes. I cocked my head in curiosity as he walked through the door. "Sorry I was late," he kicked the door shut. "But I had to get some presents for you." I chuckled "Marcus, you didn't have to do that for me!!" 

 

I heard giggling behind me and some soft whispers. "I have a plan," I heard Chalynne say. "We'll have Izell confess his feelings through a game!!" My face grew red and I marched over to where they were discussing this "plan". I squatted down and gave them all my signature death glare, which was feared throughout the school. ( I don't know, I was bored...Don't judge!!)

 

"I know what your up to, and I'm NOT, repeat NOT, going to confess! I will confess on my own..." I whisper-yelled at them. "So what are you guys doing?" I heard Marcus say from the other room. I smiled and stood back up. "Oh, nothing. Just discussing on what we should do now that your here." I said happily. "Oh! I have an idea!!" I turned around to see Cheyenne with a smirk on her face. "Let's play truth or dare!!" Trying to make me confess through Truth or Dare... Well played... Very well played...

 

We all sat down and did Enie Meanie Minie Mo (I doubt I spelled that right...) to see who would go first. After the little choosing, which ended up being Tyler, he looked around the circle and pointed to Chalynne. "Alright Cha-Cha, (her nickname) Truth or Dare!" "Dare!!!" She proclaimed. Tyler brought his hand to his chin and stoked his imaginary beard. We all laughed at his silly antics. "I dare you to.... do a hand stand for one minute!" He exclaimed. She looked down to the cast on her leg, then back up to Tyler and glared at him.

 

"I can't do that! My leg is broken..." "Oh...Okay. Well then, it's your turn Chalynne."

She looks at me. I roll my eyes. "Truth or dare Izell???" 'I'm probably going to regret this...' I thought. I sighed. "Dare..." I mumbled out. Chalynne had a devious look on her face. 'Yep... I should've known better...' I gulped. "I dare you to straddle Marcus's hips!!!" I blushed while everybody else was laughing. Marcus was smiling. "No!" I stood up quickly. "I'm not doing it cuz Marcus doesn't want me doing that!!" Marcus chuckled "Well, who said that?" he asked. My blush grew darker. "Come over here so you can just get it over with then." He patted his lap while saying so.

 

I groaned and rolled my eyes as I walked over. I stood in front of him. "Um..." I hesitated while I sat down onto his lap. And once again, my blush returned, but in a deeper shade of red. He wrapped his arms around me and pulled me in for a long hug. I couldn't help but blush and smile. I definitely can't say I don't like this though...but I probably shouldn't stay here too long before Marcus starts getting suspicious... "Can I move now???" I said quietly, almost a whisper. 

 

I felt Marcus shake his head. "Nope. Your my prisoner now!" He held me tighter. Everybody laughed once again. I groaned once more. Marcus starting rubbing my back. "Don't do that, I'll get sleepy..." I would too, and he knew that. I yawned and stretched my arms. He continued to rub my back as my eyes started to feel heavy.I rested my head on his chest and closed my eyes. My eyes snapped open when my watch beeped, indicating it was 12:00. I stood up and stretched. After I rubbed my eyes, I told everybody that it was time to go. I walked over to the door and opened it. 

 

Everybody walked out, leaving me by myself... Or so I thought. I turned around to see Marcus holding the presents that he walked through the door with a smile on his face. "You didn't open your presents!!" He said. I cocked my head to the side. I took the smallest wrapped box and examined it. The wrapping was a dark blue with orange polka-dots... My favorite colors... I tore the paper and looked at the nicely taped box. "Hmmm..." I pinched the tape in between my finger nails and pulled the tape up. I opened the box and gasped when I saw the item inside. It was a Miku Hatsune doll  that I saw on Amazon that I really wanted. (Miku Hatsune is a popular animated singer from Japan, look her up for more details if you are curious.) I've told him about it, but I didn't expect him to buy it for me...

 

"Oh my god!!! Thank you so much!!!" I hugged him and looked at Miku. I set her down on the table. Marcus then handed me another box in the same wrapping paper as before. It was at least 3 times as big as the Miku present, but it was very light. I tore the wrapping paper and opened the box... just to see a smaller box inside. Marcus chuckled. I just rolled my eyes and playfully smacked his arm. There was a tiny piece of paper attached to concealed item. I took it off and read what was on it aloud.

 

"Don't open it until your birthday. It's going to be a big surprise. I promise that you'll definitely like it. And be outside in front of the school when you open it..." I puffed up my cheeks in agitation. "Your going to make me wait for that long!?!?" Marcus waved my question off. "I think you can wait until tomorrow..." He scoffed. We heard a car horn outside.  "That's my sister." He gave me one last hug. "Bye Marcus!!" I waved as he went out the door. I walked over to the window and watched them pull out of the driveway. I sighed and walked back to the table, grabbing Miku hugged it while squealing. I headed off to bed, with Miku in my hands.

 

The Surprise of My Life

 

                                                              WARNING!!!!!! SLIGHT FLUFF NEAR  END OF CHAPTER!!!!!

 

 

When I woke up, I smiled, remembering that today was my birthday. I also remembered that Marcus had a surprise for me. I got out of bed and got dressed in a long sleeve black and gray shirt that went a good inch or two past my hands. I raised up and hands and flailed them slightly, making the sleeves of the shirt move around wildly. I chuckled at my own stupidity. I rolled them up a little bit past my elbows. I threw on a pair of dark blue jeans and went into the kitchen. I pulled out smores flavored poptarts and put them in the the toaster. I left a note on the table, reminding my parents of their appointments in the late afternoon, since they were still sleeping.

 

My phone dinged. I raised a brow at it and picked it up. It was from Marcus. I tapped the message.

 

Marcus: hey

 

Me: hey

 

Marcus: happy birthday

 

I smiled. He's almost too considerate.

 

Me: hehe thank you

 

Marcus: would you like a ride to school??

 

Me: how are you goin to give me a ride??

 

I heard a car horn outside. I rolled my eyes. I should've known... I shoved my phone in my pocket and walked out the door. I walked over to his truck and hopped in. "Congrats Birthday Boy! The big ol' one six!!" He did jazz hands for affect. I shook my head while smiling. We drove out the driveway and took off down the road. I looked out the window at the trees zooming by. "Why are you so quiet? You should be happy!" Marcus said enthusiastically . I shrugged my shoulders. "I don't know. I'm normally quiet when I'm in a car." I responded. I saw him nod out of the corner of my eye.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Time Skip Shit ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

 

We pulled into a parking space at the school. I got out of the truck and followed Marcus inside of the school. As soon as I walked through the door, I heard my name through the intercom. "Izell Stiles to the guidance office please." I frowned. 'I haven't done anything... I think...' I turned my head and saw that Marcus was gone. I shrugged my shoulders and walked to the office.  I pushed the door open a little too fast, almost whacking somebody on
