Skye
"Max..." I started to say, but stopped when I saw his eyes tear up.
"It's okay. I'm fine." Max's voice cracked. "Just... Let me be."
"Max - I didn't know-"
"Of course you didn't know!" Max raged.
"Max, can we talk outside."
"Why? Because you don't want to embarrass me again in front of your friends."
"Their your friends too! And I don't want to embarrass you! I just want to talk."
"You... you will never understand."
I laughed. "No, no, no - You don't get to say that. When your boyfriend cheats on you then makes all your old friends hate you — you can't say that."
"And why not? Why can't I?"
"Because of course I understand! The love of my life tore me apart and everyone abandoned me! This is why I got pushed off a building, Max! Because of this - this whole stupid thing. And you; you think I don't understand. Then enlighten me! Tell me why I don't understand! Go on! TELL ME! Tell me that my crush doesn't like me back, tell me that my brother hates me, tell me, tell me that the days I spent in the hospital, dying, meant nothing. Because you knew I would wake up! Like, throw science out the window - this dude believes!"
"Skye," Zoe began to say.
"No!" I erupted. "That's not my name."
Everyone looked at me, shocked.
"I... I'm leaving. Thank you, Zoe, for everything. I love you guys, but I can't deal with this."
I slipped my shoes on and walked towards the door.
"Wait!"
I turned me head to see Max looking at me.
"Then what's your name?"
I paused. I looked at everyone staring at me with interest.
"My name is none of your business, Max. So keep it out of your mouth."
And with that, I left.
