Since Marcy could remember she felt like the odd one out,
Sasha talked all about her crushes Anne occasionally joining in.
boys ...
Marcy couldn't understand why didn't she like talking about boys?
well she could but I don't think fictional animated boys would really count,
"was there something wrong with me? Am i just a late bloomer? I'll like boys too.. eventually "
- Was all marcy could tell herself
how silly it was how much it bothered her.
...
Per typical Friday night fashion, a sleepover with marcy's bestest friends was in motion. Sasha as she usually does was running late to Anne's house.
"soo what should we start with mar? we could start watching that romcom sash likes!! itll really teach her a lesson on being late"
Anne spoke out feeling mischievous "Mhm oh yeah let's do that" came out of marcy quietly,
truth be said marcy didn't hear a single word Anne said. Marcy couldn't be bothered to listen to Anne while admiring her.
Anne had always been there for Marcy, Anne was once of the prettiest girls Marcy knew right next with Sasha.
it wasn't odd for Marcy to admire Anne or Sasha for a bit longer than one would. but how could she not? Anne was sweet but charismatic, always sent butterflies straight to marcy's stomach.
Marcy loved Anne platoniclly of course... everyone admires they're friends the way Marcy did, it wasn't too odd to think of silly unrealistic scenarios with her friends where they'd be a bit more then.. friends
right?
"hey marce is something up?"
Anne whispered gently waving a hand in front of Marcy to get her attention. a small jump came out of Marcy
"What of course not... just tired been staying up playing to much hehe"
Marcy quickly spat out, the nervousness in her voice could be sensed from a mile away, Marcy was never a good lair especially when it came to her closest friends.
"hmm yeah yeah you gotta stop staying up dude, cant have you falling asleep during our romcom marathon. "
Anne jokes while setting up blankets and pillows on the floor for the three of them to lay in.
Marcy quietly let out her breath that she had unknowingly held in, taking her out of her thoughts was the sudden all too familiar ringing of the door
"Ill get it! " could be heard from downstairs presumably Mrs. Boonchuy opening the door to sash as light chatter of hello's and how are you's followed with the door being opened
just as Marcy went to open Anne's door for Sasha it suddenly starts racing towards her and she feels the hard wood of the door hit her
straight
on
the
face.
"Hey gir- Oh my gosh Marcy?? "
comes from the door as the thump from marcy's fall hits the ground
"MARCY??"
"DUDE ARE YOU OKAY?
can be heard coming from sasha and Anne as once Marcy opens her eyes her two bestest friends are close... really close
Sasha is kneeling in front of Marcy with a hand on her forehead checking for the results of the impact her forehead took while Anne was against her back rubbing her arm while whispering soft your okays and let's get you ups
once Marcy fully comes back shes feels her face steaming
sure she's been close with her friends but it felt different she felt the all too familiar butterflies in her stomach and heat of her ears
"I'M FINE" quickly gets spat out with marcy clumsily picking herself up and standing up straight - very stiffly
a part of Marcy liked having the attention of her two bestest friends over her and worried a part of her wished she stayed on the floor letting herself be taken care of by her pretty best friends
"woah marce careful you took a hard hit"
sash says going towards Marcy to offer some needed balance
"Sasha's right mar, sit down I'll go get you some water"
Anne says as she starts heading towards the door
"here let me help you mar mar, just follow my lead" sash says all to sickingly sweet
"I got it sash I can walk I'm alright" Marcy says in her stubborn nature
it wasn't like Sasha too be so soft, well to other people Marcy had the luck to see this side of sash the one that holds Marcy after a fight with her parents, the one that holds Marcys hand when she's fidgety and nervous the one that kisses Marcys "hurts" better
"here let me check you, you took a hard hit to the head marce, sorry I wasnt careful" Sasha says, gently softly even just for marcy since she felt responsible for Marcys injury
"what, Sasha it isn't your fault it's just like me to get smach down by a door " Marcy snickered out gaining a chuckle out of sash who is standing right in front of her, Marcy winses at the touch of Sasha's hand in her forehead
"ow " she quietly hisses out
"sorry" is quietly whispered out from sash
"here just hold still so I can put a band aid on it" sash says as she leaves Marcy for a second to dig through a drawer for a band aid " hope your ok with cat bandaids" sash giggles out
of course Anne would be the kind to have cat bandaids it was cute, Marcy imagined Anne using them which made her unknowingly smile like an idiot
"ok come here' be ready this might hurt SUPER" sash dramatizizes
"sashyyy" Marcy whines out
moving her head from Sasha's aim
"oh come on mar mar it won't be that bad I was kidding, man up Wu" Sasha says as she goes to cup Marcys face with one hand to keep her from fidgeting
what a mess Marcy Wu could become, her face cupped by her best friend with her face centimeters away Marcys distraction was Sasha's lips which had obviously had lip gloss applied to them before arriving,the sudden warmth on Marcys forehead bringing her back
"there you go Wu bandaged and kissed better, dang I did good" sash giggled out the last part taking a photo of Marcy in her silly state of a deer in headlights with an cat band aid x on her forehead
Marcy processing that Sasha kissed her forehead jumped the second the camera click went off
"HEY I WASN'T READY" Marcy quickly spat out getting up to take Sasha's phone
"oh no you don't, you look adorable in this picture come onnnn"
Sasha whines out hiding her phone while also attempting to keep Marcys hands from snatching it
they both giggled and groaned fighting for the phone as they ended up on the bed wrestling for the damn phone
"woah what I'd walk into" Anne awkwardly says at the door with various drinks and snacks
"Sasha took the WORSE photo of me and won't delete ittt" Marcy whines sitting up on the bed
"oh come on worse is dramatic your adorable in this"
Sasha's words again send Marcy into a flustered state
"come here Anne look" Sasha motions for Anne to look at the photo
"Awwwe she's right dude it's not a bad photo, you are quite cuteee"Anne squeaked out
oh how easily Marcy was to fall for them and there stupid words there attention was enough for Marcy to completely forget why she needed Sasha's phone, I mean her friends think she's cute..
"ANNE AND SASHA THINK I'M CUTE??" Marcy internally screaming griping into a pillow to make sure she keeps her composure.
"OOH put on my favorite rom com Anne" Sasha enthusiastically says as she sees the tv
"all ready on it dude" Anne says clicking the play button on the control while organizing the snacks she brought
"oh here ya go mar" Anne whispered to Marcy handing her a cold water bottle
".. thanks Anne" Marcy quietly says reaching for the water, touching Anne's hand with it
Marcy sat on the bed with Anne and Sasha laying on the ground intently watching the tv, oh how these girls made Marcy crazy
by this point Marcy was hiding her face in a pillow replaying everything that happened making herself more red in the process
"hey come lay with us marce" Sasha gently whispers towards Marcy while scooting over to make space for her in between her and Anne patting the space for marcy
slowly Marcy gets up and scoots into her spot squished up in between her freinds who once she's settled in scoot up to sandwitch her
an instant blush is on Marcys face
"dude your freezing" Anne whisper yells out putting more blanket on Marcy which she happily accepts and snuggles in
Marcy couldn't be happier she wished she could be cuddled in between her bestest friends forever she wished they could hold her and keep her safe like this for all eternity
soon Marcy gets comfortable being cuddled up with her friends and drifts off to some for the best sleep she's had in a while but it was short lived
feeling fuzzy and still full of sleep Marcy wipes her eyes still hearing talking from the tv
" Sashy... annabanna? " Marcy whispers out to no response, finally making her sit up to see her friends peacefully sleeping
they seemed so peacefully put together Marcy could've sworn she's never seen anyone sleep as beautifully as her friend are doing , the lighting from the tv making them seem even more
delicate and graceful
Marcy admires Anne's tan skin and messy curls hesitantly pushing a curl behind Anne's ear causing Anne to stir
"marmar?" was quietly whispered out by a sleepy Anne
"ah sorry for waking you" Marcy sincerely says
"why are you up?" Anne whisper yawned while looking around for the tv control
"oh nothing just heard the tv still on" Marcy says as she helps Anne look around for the control
"there, under the pink blanket Anne" was whispered out with Marcy pointing to the blanket that covered annes legs
"ah gotcha now" was whispered out with the pause of the tv
Anne and Marcy start to settle down but once they're both comfortable a nice silence fills the room as they stare at the glow in the dark star filled ceiling
without fully thinking Marcy calls for Anne, not even sure if she's ready to ask what she is about too
"hey anne" was whispered almost incoherently
"hm?" Anne hums out turning to face Marcy who was already facing at Anne
"what if I dont like boys" softly whispered out Marcy , plastered with a look of nervousness all over her.
silence came over them as Anne blinked processing what Marcy said, while Marcy searched Anne's face for any sign of discomfort
"thats ok, boys are overrated anyways" Anne says trying to lighten the mood, although she seemed sincere in telling Marcy it was ok
"you really think so? its not weird right.. that I maybe like girls?" Marcy says with a quivering voice seeming unsure on what she's saying
"I think, I like girls" Anne whispers out to Marcy
Marcy breath hitches for a second not expecting for the conversation to go this direction
the worry from Marcys face seems to completely dissolve with a small smile replacing it
Anne seemingly smiles too with her hand settling itself on Marcys as there hands intertwine
a comfortable silence fills the room Anne scoots toward Marcy to clear up the space between them, Sasha stirs in her sleep settling an arm over Marcy
both Anne and Marcy giggle at Sasha
comfortably laying there in between her two best friends Marcy never felt happier, butterflies filled her stomach from the warmth holding Anne's hand provided.
Marcy was never going to like boys and she was happy with that she liked crushing on her best friends even if it meant nothing would happen between them she was happy just adoring them from the sidelines
Marcy liked girls and she was okay with that.
