Apology Letter

[samcallaway]

I got to school early so I was sure Melanie wouldn't be there to put my apology letter to her in her locker. I took it out of my backpack and read it over one last time.

Mel...

I'm sorry. It was wrong for me to steal you're song and even more wrong for me to pay your little brother for it. My excuse was dumb and it wasn't even true. I stole your song because I was kinda jealous. But I also felt invisible. You've got a ton of friends and I only had you and Alice.

Okay...I'm bad at this. I'm sorry and I understand if you don't forgive me or ever talk to me again. I just want you to know that I feel terrible for the way things went down.

-Sam.

Oh, PS...I didn't mean to piss off Tom that day in class

I stuck it in Melanie's locker and walked off to my locker. I watched her locker to see when she would get to her locker and get the letter.

I got to school and went to my locker. When I opened it, a piece of paper came falling out. I picked it up and read it. My mouth fell open when I realized it from Sam. I continued to read, my eyes getting more teary with every line. I finally finished it and felt like I was going to cry. Wow. He was really sorry...I was about to go find him when (whoever) came up to me.

I was walking through the halls in an old dark gray sweatshirt and a pair of baggy darkwash jeans. I wasn't in the mood to look cute. I noticed Mel and walked over to her.
"Hey." I said quietly.

I looked at Lily and blinked. I shoved the letter into my locker.
"Hi," I said. I wasn't about go be all ecstatic when Lily and Joe just broke up.

I tilted my head at her confused.
"What was that?" I asked about the paper she'd shoved in her locker.

[melaniecatlan]

I shook my head.
"Oh, nothing," I lied, attempting to keep a straight face.

I walked down the hallways, hands in my pocket. I was actually in a cheerful mood today. I spotted Mel and Lilly by Melanie's locker. I wasn't going to go and interrupt them, but I didn't see anyone else, so I walked towards them.

"Hey." I said to both of them.

[melaniecatlan]

I looked at Tom and blinked. I knew this was impossible.
"Hi," I said.

[♥Lily Truscott♥]

I shrugged at her.
"Whatever." I said and turn to Tom. "Hi."

I looked at both girls. "Did I interrupt something?" I asked them.

[melaniecatlan]

I shook my head.
"Um, no," I said. I shut my locker and looked at the clock. "Did the bell ring? Are we late?" I asked quickly, looking for a way to leave.

[♥Lily Truscott♥]

I looked at Melanie confused. Since when does she hurry to get to class?

[skates]

"I didn't hear it go." I said, looking slightly confused. Though I was operating on about 2 hours of sleep...

[melaniecatlan]

I bit my lip. Crap.
"Oh, hm..." I said, bouncing lightly on my heels.

[skates]

"Something bothering you." I said to Mel. I tried to think of what but couldn't think of anything but Sam and I didn't want to bring that up.
