.Swings. Chapter 1

"I've fallen for him, and I kinda don't know what to do. But it looks like I'm to late for that confess." I spoke out loudly, for only me to hear, obviously. Why am I screaming that out? Well it's obvious isn't it? Jonah Beck, and one of my best friends, Andi Mack. Are... how do I put this?- making out. Right there, clear we're everybody could see! If, they were looking for Andi or Jonah. I don't know why, but I kept staring, it hurt, it really did. Just to see them there with their faces all up on each other, slobbering. Now when you think of it, it's really gross. Heh. But you also know what's gross? My hair. I think I swept it to much to the side this morning.. I knew I should had used the mirror. It makes me feel like I'm betraying the good hair crew. Let me spell that out.
"B E T R A Y I N G" it makes me feel, sick!

I just stared at them still, compromising my emotions and my feelings to Jonah AND Andi, I shouldn't be but I should. I close my eyes slowly, and open them, and I shouldn't of had done that, nope I shouldn't and I should had just looked for Buffy because right now, both of them are starting RIGHT AT ME. I wave, slowly as sweat dreads down my face. I slowly chuckle and start to back up, my chuckling turning more high pitched and me, nervous by the minute. I could go to Buffy, I could but she couldn't help me right now, only the park and it's swings.. and slides.. the green fresh cut grass the way the wind blows moving all those twirly spinning things. No one comes here at this day of time. No one that I know of, yeah. I sat on the swings, swaying back and forth slowly as the wind blew in my face. It called me down. I closed my eyes, put my head down and sighed. I am gonna try my best, to avoid them. Just for Monday. Yeah, just for Monday..

I raised my head, I went forward and back, and decided to sing the swinging song.

"Life's go up, life's go down, that's how we make the swing go round. Drag your feet, you go slow, the more you drag, the less you go. Le-" "Nice song" I was stunned and turned around only to find the voice belonging to Tj. He look to his side, then right back in my eyes. "What do you sing when you're on the slide?" I gave him a strange look. "We go down, we say yay, we don't climb up, that's the wrong way.." I was nervous. "Huh. He sounded confused. "Didn't expect a song outta that." He stared at each other for a few seconds. "Chocolate chocolate chip muffin." I replied with his nickname I had gave him. "Scary basketball guy." He looked, annoyed but in a calm way.. if you could call it that. "Actually, Tj." I smiled. "I know, Cyrus" Tj walked to the swing next to me. "So, you come here often?" I looked at him. "When I'm feeling bad about myself, so.. very often." He gave me a nod, and a small hm shaking his head as he understood. "Does it help?" He asked, "it helps me." I replied. "Go on," I pointed to the swing "looks like you need it." I gave a small smile. He swiftly took the seat, already starting to go high. He smiled, a cheery and bright one. "Wow, this kinda does make me feel better," he let out a small chuckle. I was confused. "What do you mean? What do you feel bad about? Your the captain of the basketball team!" He sighed, his smile planted to his face still. "You don't know me, I got stuff" I took this as a challenge, so I approached "betcha' I have more stuff" I said, competing with him. He smirked. "Yeah? Betcha' I can swing higher" and there he went. Higher. I chuckled lowly, "I'm afraid to swing higher.. that's one of my stuff."

Tj let out a big woo! "I never knew why I stopped swinging!" It was adorable, "c'mon, get up here." "Uh," I started to reply "this is how far i'll go." Tj looked at me, he let out another big, woo! And went really high, and he jumped off, JUMPED OFF. he headed for me and I was confused at first. He went to the back of me and pushed me up, I let out a small wow! Ah! I was smiling, and chuckling quietly when he started to push me higher then I would normally go, "wuah!" I yelped, laughing as he smirked. "Underdog!" He pushed me up way high and went under me, "WOAH" I screamed out, laughing. "That was exhilarating!" "Want another one?" He smirked at me, "no!" My chuckling getting quiet each breath I took. He made a sad look then pushed me. "To bad" he smiled, I screamed.

It continued on with him pushing me up and me screaming out woahs and ahhs of excitement. "Cyrus?!? Are you ok?" I heard buffy call my name, and To stopped. I turned to Tj. "I should get going." "But why?" I asked, "I just need to." I chuckled "well you know where to find me." He smiled at me. "Bye muffin." "Bye not so scary basketball guy" he didn't give me a reply, more of just a small smile and started to jog away, the other way in front of me. I got off the swings "yeah Buffy?" She smiled, "did you see them? "Who?" I asked. Who was she talking about. "Andi and Jonah" I froze at those names, and wished she didn't say them.

"Yeah. I did."
