Existentialism On Prom Night

Twitch. Chill. Fidget. Sigh.

He sat in class anxiously tapping the fingers of his left hand on this desk. He placed his right hand to his mouth.

Bite. Suck. Lick. Chew.

He looked at the clock. Almost time to leave. Today was his last day. It was final. He had made his decision. He was dropping out of high school. He was going to backpack across Europe and get out of this small, boring town.

Shiver. Another twitch. Adjust. A second sigh.

He pulled his nail bitten fingers from his mouth to look at his watch. He tapped his foot rhythmically to a tune only he could hear. The girl next to him looked over, noticing his nervousness.

“Josh…” she whispered.

Gasp. Fidget again. Lip bite. Glance.

“What?” He asked, switching from his lip to right hand to occupy his mouth.

She studied him, taking note of the small star tattoo on the back if his right hand. “Are you alright?”

He nodded and looked back at the clock.

Tick. Tick. Yet another sigh. Foot tapping. Finger drumming.

He had no idea why he was waiting for the end of the day since he was dropping out anyway. Never to return. He looked back at the girl beside him, her long red hair shining in the sunlight that trickled in through the windows. She hid behind her hair most days, hiding from the world. Also, he remembered, she was the only one who called him ‘Josh’ anymore. Everyone else called him Scud.

Annoying bell ring. Smirk. Dash for the door. One last look.

He stopped in the doorway, looking back at the girl. He strained his brain to remember her name. “Megan…”

The girl looked up at him, the sadness in her dark hazel eyes fading for a moment. “Yes?” She asked, grabbing up her book bag and walking toward him.

Panic. Loss of words. Lip biting. Soft kiss.

“Goodbye.” He said against her cheek before leaving, nearly running out of the school.

Megan stood fingering her cheek for a second. She had been hoping he would ask her to prom, but he just walked out of her life forever.
