Marco woke up… his head was throbbing… He took some aspiring to numb the pain. Flashbacks from last night came to him. He went to get the morning paper. What he found was a letter. A letter under his door. He opened it inside as he really felt weirded out by this. Marco read the entire letter. It…
Paige read the message that she got from Marco and panicked. Not only did her head throb from the alcohol she took last night, but her heart hurt too, because she didn’t know what to do. She knew it had to be about Dylan somehow. She knew that Marco was hurting, but she also knew Dylan was pressured and she didn’t know what to do. She didn’t want to take sides with anyone. She knew Marco, and she knew the things he was capable of, so she stumbled to slide on some flats and jetted out of her apartment, on her way to meet her best friend.
Marco waited as Paige arrived… He panicked cause he knew that the end for Marco had alas came. He sobbed on the kitchen floor and on the carpet of his living room. Nothing eagerer him more than Paige’s arrival.
Paige arrived, knocking on the door freakishly. She was kind of worried. Marco was capable of a lot of things, and she was worried he may have hit his edge. She knocked a few more times, not hearing an answer.
Marco heard the knocking at the door. He knew it was Paige… he walked up to the door… Opened it and saw Paige standing outside. Marco wearing only his PJ’s and the letter still in his hand, and his letter of resignation as well… He had nothing else to hold on to but what paige would say next…
When Paige saw him, she was speechless. She didn’t have any words. She just came in, closed the door, and hugged him tight. It was one of those moments where comforting couldn’t be expressed by talking. She showed how much she cared by hugging him. Sometimes, that’s all it took. Words didn’t work. A hug is comfort without being spoken.
Marco felt Paige’s heart beat out of the same pain Marco had felt. Marco was broken inside and out. All he could say is “Why?! Why couldn’t be honest and said he never really loved me?” Marco fell into tears as he could not hold up himself up anymore. He contemplated to Paige his love and all that had happened since Dylan’s arrival. The things Marco noticed that knew this would happen. For instance the moving in with Ellie without asking Marco for a room. The constant talk about only Ellie. The constant harassing towards Dylan to come over when all he wanted was to stay with Ellie. Marco felt betrayed non the less destroyed since the only true lover he had just back-stabbed him with his so called best friend. He told Paige how alone he has felt and how he resigned his job at Degrassi, how he even tried to commit suicide and failed. How could Marco feel any less pain than loosing his “soulmate” in a single fight…
Paige sat down next to him, and just held him while he cried. It broke her heart, actually. She didn’t like seeing anybody like this. She understood it was her brother they were talking about, but she wasn’t betraying her brother by comforting him, was she? Marco was her best friend overall. At the end of the day, she notices she can’t live with Marco, and Marco can’t live without Dylan. If it means being happy, maybe they needed to get away from both of them for awhile. “How about we leave?” She said, suddenly, still holding onto him as he sobbed. “Like, on vacation. We can head to Hawaii or Cancun, anywhere you want. Just you and me, best friends.” She sighed, but she was being serious. She had the money for it, and she figured they both needed it, “We can step out of reality for awhile.”
Marco Looked up at Paige. He realized she was being honest. “But, what about Dylan? I cant pay for it. Where would we go?” Marco’s only thoughts were to just run away into nothing, or run back into Dylan’s arms. Marco understood he could not do either. Marco sobbed for a moment in complete silence. He went to his room grabbed a box from his closet and brought it into the living room. The box was no larger than a shoe box for boots. He carefully opened it. There it was all of Marco and Dylan’s things. He ruffled up between papers and pictures and took out what seemed as a folder. He opened the folder and said to Paige: “This was meant for me and Dylan cause I know he wanted to go here with me. It is an undefined trip to the UK. It was meant to be a present for what I was hoping to be our honeymoon. My parents also inclined to go to Italy to stay at the family Villa. I don’t want to go without the special someone in my life. So if you want it or wanna give it to those 2. Then Whatever! I am going to bed.”
Paige felt tears sting the corners of her eyes. She reached for Marco’s hand. “I can pay for it Marco. We both just need a break.” She wanted to do something nice for her best friend, something he would appreciate. She didn’t want him to look at it like it was running away. She needed a break, he did too. Why couldn’t they just go together? “Marco, let’s just go. When we come back, we can move in together, and we will be roommates again. Niether one of us will be alone. We will have each other, and I’m never leaving your side.” She wanted to reassure him that their friendship meant more than the world. She didn’t want him upset.
Marco looked at Paige with his eyes filled with tears. He said in a soft voice: “Paige, I look at you and all I can think of is Dylan.” Marco took his arm from Paige’s grip. He walked into his room and curled up in bed. “Take the damn things…” said Marco, “even the rings if you want.” Marco took the rings out of his side table and read note inside the ring. “To my one true love no matter time and space- Marco” He gave it to Paige as tears ran down Marco’s face. His breathing had become irregular and hasty. He felt destroyed as it seemed Paige did not realize that his entire life was just destroyed in a heartbeat. Dylan was Marco’s only reason for living and had been the reason for the entire time of waiting.
“Paige all I don’t understand is how is it that your brother in one fight betray me? Was he really that spiteful towards me?”
“Marco…” Paige felt her own heart from hearing those words. Like a part of this was her fault. Like coming here was a mistake and that he never wanted to see her again. She read the rings and she let a few tears fall herself. Dylan is all I see when I look at you. Paige rearranged the words over and over again in her head. She sat down on the bed next to him. “Marco. I’m your best friend.” She said, her voice weak. “I met you way before you met my brother. It hurts me that you can’t see me. You can only see him. He isn’t worth it. He isn’t worth this!”
“Paige lets be honest the only thing that you knew me was being mean. Like pure evil mean towards me. You know this. I met Dylan as a person close to my heart. I miss him I wish things could just work out. I mean like if he actually had taken as much time as he gave Ellie, towards me then he would have seen that I am still his beloved Marco with abbs.” Marco grinned knowing he tried to make a joke out of this last part. Marco felt so bad he shrugged… Wanting to just fade away.
“Marco, that isn’t true.” Paige thought back to it. Maybe it was. But she was different now, and she had always been Marco’s friend. Ellie, him, and Paige had always been three peas in a pod.
“You know what! Fuck this!” Paige got up, put everything she was looking at on the end table, and leaned over the bed, grabbing marco and dragging him off. He refused to cooperate, so his body hit the floor softer than expected, with a small thump. “Get yo ass up!” Paige screamed, “We are going out, and you are going to be happy, and we are going to get through this together. You have some much more to live for than you see!” Paige yelled, going to his closet and looking at his clothes. She picked out a simple, yet sexy, outfit for him, with a matching fedora. “You will look hot in this, and you will meet guys tonight, and we will drink our heads off. Then, we will talk about everything.” Paige, smiled, throwing the clothes at Marco.
That’s not what I meant. In like, a parallel universe, and you were in Marco’s position, how would you feel?
Dylan, how would you feel if the love of your life left you for your female best friend?
No, no… it’s not like that. Marco is upset, you have to see that. I understand you like Ellie and everything, but it still wasn’t a big stab in the back to him, and I can see why.

I’ll succeed sooner or later. We went out last night and I’m trying to pull him around.
I am convincing Marco to skip town for a couple weeks with me. I’m getting sick of my apartment walls.
YOU WILL BE MY SAVAGE AND NO ONE CAN TAKE YOU FROM ME (: haha
