wow. A lot has happened since i last wrote.
A lot.
So...in theatre we're doing two shows: Crimes of the Heart, and Of Mice and Men. And i sooo got a part in Crimes of the Heart. A real part, none of that understudy business for me.
As Devin so eloquently put it: "No more boo boo roles for Brooke" and i must say, i think that is the only time we've ever agreed on something...ever.
Okay, i have a story to tell. I'm kinda proud of this one. There's this guy who was in theatre(everyone reading this probably already knows this story, but i have to write it anyway). Anywho, i dont know why he was ever really there- he was on the sound crew, but he's not a theatre person, if you know what i mean.
Anyway, this guy is creepy. Creepy like, he-stands-two-inches away-from-you-so-when-you-turn-around-he's-staring-right-in your-face creepy. He never actually tried anything(that i know) but he just had that creepiness. "The vibe." So, my friend asks me to talk to him, and normally i tend to avoid confrontations like the plague, but this is a serious issue for me. None of my friends(or anyone, for that matter) should have to feel concerned about anyone while i am around.
So, i talk to him, and i tell him as nice as i possibly can to stay away from my friends because he's scaring them. I really was nice, which is hard to do when you're telling someone something like that, but i was. I even said please. But he didn't seem to get it, in fact, he kinda was grinning the whole time, so i dont think my words had such an impact.
Well, apparently they didn't, because about two days later we were out in the hallway during theatre practice(ms. wilson had given us five minutes break) and he starts bothering meagan.
Meagan.
Now, i am a severely protective person. I will do anything to protect nearly all of my friends, but this is meagan, who is practically my sister and whom i've known since i was five. My protectiveness goes into overdrive where she is concerned.
So he's pouring his creepy vibes all over meagan and getting way too close, and i say, "Hey, stay away from Meagan, please." I said please just so if i had to relate this story to adult figures later on, I would be the good guy. By this time meagan's kinda standing behind me and i figure 'okay, he'll leave now.'
...he doesn't leave.
He did that smirk/grin thing he does and walked up to me, standing two inches away from my face. I said it again, "Stay away from my friend, please" this time i practically ground out the please and was getting severely pissed off. All i wanted to do was punch him, or knee him in the groin. But i'm not stupid, i pride myself in that matter. I know that punishments for fighting in school are severe, and so far all this guy has done is get way too close and be provacatively creepy- hardly grounds for me punching him in a legal situation. I think things through. Besides, i'm not the strongest person in the world, even if sometimes i pretend i am.
So there we are, glaring at eachother. Taryn and Dalton are standing off to the side, meagan's behind me somewhere, and i think fabian was there, too. It was starting to get ridiculous. I was waiting for him to try to hurt me, or threaten me or something, because i would have gotten his ass kicked out of school faster than he could have blinked. I dont mess around.
But he just stood there, so i told him, "you know, i've got about five minutes. Are you going to stand here the whole time?" ...and do you know what he says?
He says, "oh i think we all have five minutes." ....what the HELL does that mean?! was that his idea of a comeback? if it was, it sucked. That's about the time when i walked away. Meagan had already left and taryn and I went back into the classroom and a few minutes later Kirby was asking me what happened and looking all pissed off, which made me feel all special inside, because people care.
Anywho, today i find out- that kid's dropped out of the show.
That makes me SO proud. I won, and i didnt even lift a finger.
moral: dont fuck with brookie and her friends. |
