The Change [BWWM Marcel/HarryStylesFanfic] #wattys2015

Ch.2

I ran throughout the school looking for him but each corner I turned down he wasn't there. I slid down the steps that led to the basement.

Nobody ever came down here, it was so nasty and stinky. But I was desperate to find him and I searched everywhere but here.

"MARCEL!" I shouted walking up and down the large basement. The pipes were leaking and the light kept flickering on and off. Something you saw in a suspense/horror movie.

"Marcel where are you?" I whispered to myself

I was about to give up and go back up the steps but I heard a noise coming from my far left. I steadied my harsh breathing so I could hear better and walked toward the noise.

"Marcel?" I called out. I was getting closer and the weird noises turned into loud grunts.

I approached a steel door where the noises were coming from inside.

I cracked the door open and peeped inside. There was a shirtless man working out on gym equipment. His body was bulging and sweaty. His back lay flat as he lifted the weights up and pulled them down over and over again.

I groaned mentally, this was definitely a beautiful sight infront of me but I needed to find my Marcel.

"Excuse me" I cleared my throat, "Have you seen Marcel?"

The man rested the weights in their original spot and sat up.

I gasped, "Marcel?!" I asked in astonishment

He looked at me with confused eyes. He looked so different without his glasses and bow ties.

"Why are you looking for me?" He asked, leaving me speechless. I had never heard him talk before and his voice was like angels singing in my ears. His voice was strong and masculine with a large amount of curiosity.

I looked at him with wide eyes. Okay, maybe I should have thought out what I was going to say before I decided to go searching for him. Now here I stood infront of him speechless!

"I Umm-Umm- well..." I stumbled around my words, my palms were growing sweaty.

I heard him sigh, "You're not setting me up right now are you?" He asked, turning around and pulling on a black button up shirt. I caught a glimpse of the bruises on his back and I felt my heart clench at the sight of them.

I realized he asked a question and quickly answered, "No of course not! I just wanted to check on you." I said quickly

He turned back around, fixing his bow tie around his collar and looked at me. His gaze demanded my attention, I couldn't look away as he studied me. His dark emerald eyes burning into my dull violet ones. His eyes were amazing. I had never seen him without his glasses. I was truly amazed by how different he looked with them and his bowties.

He looked away after what felt like hours. He grabbed his stuff and walked right past me.

"Wait! Marcel!" I said trying to catch up with his long strides.

I reached up and grabbed his forearm to stop him. He turned around with a annoyed look on his face as he stared down at me.

"Please let me explain" I stated wiping my damp hands on my pants.

I didn't wait for a reply, "I just wanted to check and see if your were okay. You know? Make sure you didn't leave because I wanted to check on you. And I just said I wanted to check on you twice. Wow can this get anymore embrassing. But the point is, I wanted to check on you! That's all!" I rambled, getting myself all worked up and embarrassed.

I looked up for Marcel, making sure he didn't disappear again but I found him smiling down at me.

I shyly looked away, smiling to myself.

"Don't worry, I'm fine" he said walking away

I nodded to myself, pleased that he was okay.

I quickly walked out of the scary basement and back upstairs into the school.
