This is a BTTF drabble in honor of Back to the Future Day being this week. Sorry that this is a day late. I love Marty so much and I've really been fangirling over him for the LONGEST time. So, here's a drabble about him and a character that loosely resembles me. Yes, the song is the title from a Queen song so obviously I don't own it. I don't own Back to the Future either. This one is a real cutie. I'm also going to leave it up to you to decide whether or not they've already sort of been romantically involved and OC just doesn't want to take those feelings further or they've never been romantically involved at all and Marty really wants to be with her but she's not really ready to be in a relationship. Reader's choice. :) I kind of wrote it that way so I hope you guys enjoy it. Anyways, happy belated Back to the Future day!!

"Hey, Suz!" My friend Natalie or Nat as we like to call her says interrupting my staring off into space. She snaps her fingers in front of my face bringing me back to reality. I gaze around the mostly quiet library as research for an English paper takes place.

"Huh?" I ask, turning my face back towards her.

"We were talking about going and grabbing milkshakes after school. Do you want to come?" she asks me.

"Ummmm..." I start to say before he catches my gaze again. He shoots me a smirk before moving in between the shelves to "research". I don't know what he's doing but it's certainly not research.

"Girls, are we researching for the paper on your era of literature that you were assigned?" Mrs. Edmonton, my English teacher asks me. I pull up Peter Pan in front of me, which I'm actually using as a part of my research paper, and pretend to be super busy with something.

"Yeah!" Nat says with a smile, "Susan here was just telling me all about how Peter Pan fits into the era that she's writing about." Her extrovertedness and ability to make up stuff on the fly has never ceased to amaze me. Jasmine or Jaz to those of us who she appreciates, comes over and sits down across from me. I peek up from my book for the briefest instant to smile at her and my gaze flicks to the boy avoiding Mrs. Edmonton in the book shelves for another second.

"What are you looking at?" Jaz asks with a humorless laugh.

"Huh? Nothing in particular," I say as I feel a blush creep onto my cheeks before pulling my book closer to my face. Jaz pulls it down and raises an eyebrow at me.

"Really? You're gonna try to lie to me?" she asks me before flicking her eyes over to see what I'm looking at. Or rather who.

The boy hiding away in between the shelves looks at me and shoots me a wink. I roll my eyes at him before pulling the book up to me and finishing down writing the thought that I had been working on. I hear Mrs. Edmonton getting on Natalie for not doing her work. She gestures to me,

"You would do well to pay attention to your friend, Susan. She's very good at the work that she does." Jaz rolls her eyes and kicks me under the table. I flinch and Mrs. Edmonton looks at me with a surprised look. Alexandria or Alex comes over and grins at Mrs. Edmonton.

"Hey! Long time no see!" she says excitedly to all of us before sitting down across from Natalie. The two of them exchange devious smirks.

"This is an English class, Alexandria. Please refer to me with more respect," she says and Alex laughs.

"Whatever ya say, teach," she replies. Jaz and I exchange annoyed and worried glances. Mine worried and Jaz's is merely annoyed. She moodily stabs the paper that she's writing on a bit harder with her pencil as she starts to write some notes down. Mrs. Edmonton leaves after reprimanding both Alex and Nat. Nat immediately whirls around to face me.

"So, milkshakes?" she asks and I sigh, "You know you can't stay in the house forever, Suz. That's not how life works. Besides, you always say you don't want to go and then you have a blast going."

"It's not just you and the milkshakes. I'll come," I say as I turn and notice him gazing at me as he's pretending to look at a book.

"Okay, for real," Nat demands, "What are you looking at?"

"It's not a what," Alex says with a mischievous smirk on her face, "But who." A huge blush floods onto my face and Jaz rolls her eyes. Nat perks up with interest and a huge grin appears on her face. I look to Jaz for help and she shrugs.

"It's your funeral," she says and I inwardly groan. These two are not going to leave this alone. They can't know.

"I'm gonna go look for some more books. Might be in the encyclopedias," I say as I walk back towards the bookshelves where he is hiding. I stop a little ways away to make it look like I'm actually looking for something.

"Finally!" his voice low and soothing breaks through the silence causing me to jump a little bit when he first starts talking, "Took you long enough."

"Can we take this somewhere a little bit more private?" I ask and he raises an eyebrow, "Marty, I didn't mean it like that."

"Uh huh. Sure," Marty replies. He starts to reach for my hands but I pull them away.

"Not here. Please. You know how I feel about these kinds of things and I don't want to get into trouble," I say and Marty looks like he's about to protest but he obliges anyways.

"Well, where should we go then?" he asks and my eyes drift up to the second floor of the library. Marty doesn't hesitate and takes my hand pulling me up the more concealed of the two staircases. I follow him as he quickly pulls on my hand to lead me.

"You know, Mrs. Edmonton was just telling Nat about how good of a student I was and now you're gonna go and ruin that," I say as we make it to the top.

"Why? We're just friends," Marty says, locking gazes with me.

Just friends, huh.....Well then.

"Then why are you holding my hand?" I ask him and Marty's gaze quickly flicks to our hands. He quickly intertwines his fingers with mine and pulls me closer to him.

"Because...maybe I like it there," he says casually. I start to pull away but he grabs on tighter to my fingers.

"Well, if we're just friends, why would you want to hold it in the first place?" I ask and Marty thinks for a minute.

"You'll get lost if I don't," he says.

"I'll get lost?" I repeat before slowly pulling my hand away from him, "Besides you know how I feel and you've been chasing after Jennifer Parker."

"Yeah but..." Marty starts and I look at him.

"There's nothing more to talk about," I finish for him before walking down the stairs. He grabs my hand again and our gazes meet before he lets go again. He sadly follows me down the stairs and goes back to whatever it was he was previously doing.

A week goes by and I'm out at Burger King getting milkshakes with my friends. Just as I sit down in my booth with Natalie next to me and Alex and Jaz across from us, I feel someone nudge my elbow. I look up just in time to see Marty shoot me a wink as he walks by. Nat shoves me playfully and hard about causing me to fall out of the booth.

"Nat," I grumble but she merely chuckles. Jaz looks across at me and shakes her head,

"I'm so sorry that you had to befriend the flirtiest guy in all of Hill Valley."

"He's not that bad," I say to try and defend Marty.

"He's not that bad..."Nat laughs out loud, "How come I don't know about your friendship with him? Does this mean it's a relationship?"

"Nat..."I say again after sighing, "We're really just friends. He really likes Jennifer Parker."

"Oh tell him to forget her. Why would he like her when he has you?" Nat asks, "How long have you been friends with him? The two of you seem pretty close."

"Does it matter?" I ask them, really wanting them out of my personal business.

"YES!" Alex says and Jaz shrugs looking at me.

"Like I said last week..."she starts and I sigh.

"I know...I know," I say, poking my milkshake and glancing over at Marty to see him sneaking glances at me. Funny how that works. He winks at me again and I resist the urge to roll my eyes. I smile up at him and I see him smile back at me.

"Just friends, then?" Alex asks, "I'll really believe you two are just friends when he asks you to the school dance." I resist the urge to laugh before taking a long sip of my milkshake. Checking the time, I realize it's starting to get late and I need to get home and work on homework.

"I'll see you guys later. I gotta get home," I say sadly.

"We doing this again soon?" Nat asks and I nod.

"Just let me know when you want to do it again," I say as I stand up and swing my backpack over my shoulder catching Marty's attention. I adjust it and wave at everyone before heading out the door.

Another week goes by and my friends continue to hassle me about Marty and I. Marty and Jennifer start to hang out together a little bit more much to my chagrin. I like Jennifer. She's super nice. I just wish she and Marty didn't click as much as they do.

Mostly because I've finally started to admit to myself that I have a humongous crush on Marty. I quickly sit on a park bench and wait for someone to come pick me up since I didn't feel like riding my bike to school. I'm feeling pretty tired today. I lean back against the park bench that I'm sitting on in the town square and I shiver involuntarily at the colder weather coming in.

"Mind if I sit here?" I hear a voice ask and I see Marty standing next to the bench. I nod and he sits down as close to me as possible and a smile creeps on my face. Another shiver hits me and Marty notices. His gaze goes from pleased to concerned and I shake my head.

"I'm fine. You don't need to..."I start but he quickly takes off his orange red puffy vest and hands me his jean jacket.

"I don't want you to be cold," he says.

"You know how much I love the cold," I say and Marty shakes his head.

"You're shivering," Marty says before placing the jacket on my shoulders. I sigh and oblige to his offer. Something about wriggling my arms through the sleeves of the jacket just feels right. I smile at him as I poke my fingers out the end causing him to smile. Marty gently rubs my back with his hand and I shoot him a skeptical look.

"Now aren't you going to be cold?" I ask him as I carefully pull the jacket tighter around me.

"No," he says with a smile and gently rubs a hand up and down my arm furthest away from him. I lean closer, allowing him to snake his arm over my shoulder and pull me into his side. He gently continues to rub it and a smile drifts onto my face as he holds me.

This all just feels so right. Me wearing his jacket and the two of us snuggling on a park bench. I lean my head against his shoulder and let out a happy sigh.

"How serious are you about liking Jennifer?" I ask quietly. Marty's gaze snaps to mine with a happy glint in them.

"You don't mean?" he asks.

"I do," I reply just as I see my dad start to pull up around the corner. Making sure he isn't looking, I quickly press a kiss to Marty's cheek. I stand up and start to walk towards the street to have Marty call out to me.

"Wait a minute...can't we finish this conversation? Do you really have to go?" he asks me sadly. I can see the saddened look in his eyes as I'm standing up to leave.

"Yes. Besides, you really want to have this in front of my dad?" I ask him and Marty sighs.

"No, not really. I just..." he starts.

"We'll talk...but not now. Okay?" I try to reason with him and Marty nods.

"Okay. But just realize that this is far from over," he says and I nod.

"I know. I think I would know better than anybody," I say, "Marty, don't worry about it. I kissed you on the cheek and you know I don't really do that....ever." Marty nods his agreement before standing up and moving closer to do just that. I pull away and Marty smirks at me.

"I'll return the favor when your dad isn't around," he says.

"That would be very nice but maybe not yet. I like to take things slow," I say before turning around and getting into the car, "I'll see you around."

"See ya," Marty says before getting on his skateboard and riding away. I get into the car realizing that I still have Marty's jacket on but my dad is already driving away before I can do anything about it.

The next day, I walk into school wearing Marty's jean jacket. Nat and Alex both shoot me surprised looks.

"Isn't that Marty's jacket?" Alex asks me with her eyebrows raised playfully.

"I was cold so he let me wear it," I reason, which was really the truth. I hadn't asked for it from him. He was the one who had given it to me.

"Yeah but, you're still wearing it," Nat says, tugging on the end of the sleeve. I pull it to me protectively.

"Maybe I like it," I say before gently rolling the sleeve over my wrist.

"Just like you like McFly???" Alex asks, raising her eyebrow suggestively and I roll my eyes.

"It reminds me of my friend," I state and Alex, Nat and even Jaz laugh at this.

"Right...your friend," Nat says as I feel my cheeks flush a pale red.

"Really, Suz? By the blush on your face, I can tell even you don't believe that," Jaz says as she gives the jacket sleeve a good tug.

Walking into history first period, which I conveniently only have with Nat and Marty, I hurry to my seat and try to move away from Nat to give myself some space. I love my friends, I really do but they can drive me crazy sometimes. Not saying Marty doesn't either because he does at some points in time. None of my friends are perfect but I love them all just the same.

Nat walks into the room and takes her seat next to this guy that she's kind of been pining after for the last little while. I can see her talking up a storm and I roll my eyes as I start to organize my notes and such to get ready for class. The tardy bell rings and Marty slips in just after. I raise my eyebrows at him. He sneaks in and sits in the seat behind me. I turn around and whisper,

"Don't get caught." Marty smiles at me with a wide grin.

"Nice jacket," he whispers casually and I roll my eyes.

"Would you stop that? I'm trying to keep you out of trouble," I whisper back before noticing that the lecture is about to begin. I turn around and get ready to take notes until I feel a light prodding on the sole of my shoe...until it becomes way more than a light prodding and an incessant tapping. I try to ignore it, pretending that I'm very busy taking notes and not paying attention to Marty's prodding. Finally, I can't ignore it any longer and I turn around.

"Can I help you?" I ask and Marty smirks at me before I turn back around and keep writing. As soon as the bell rings to end class, I hurry out with Marty right behind me. He keeps pace with me and I smile at him.

"Are you gonna stop ignoring me?" he asks. I nudge him playfully as we walk down the hall.

"Of course. I was never really ignoring you to begin with. I was just trying to focus in class," I say and Marty chuckles as we walk.

"But you weren't..."he starts to protest.

"Ignoring you? Yes. Trying to pay attention in class? Yes. Giving you the silent treatment? No," I finish his sentence and he shoots me an annoyed look before pulling me into a small alcove in the hallway full of busy students. We are so close that our noses are touching and I smile at him. The bell rings to warn us of class starting and I hurry out and towards my class.

"Hey.."Marty starts to whine but I shoot him a small smirk.

"We'll have more time for those kinds of shenanigans later," I say as I enter my next class, leaving Marty in the hallway to be tardy yet again. I'm really not ready to be in an official relationship. Marty, I know would like it but I'm not really sure I'm ready. That's kind of a lot to ask...especially out of someone who's as introverted as I am.

The rest of the day goes by relatively quickly even though it feels like forever. Marty tries to find me in between each of our classes and we walk to the classes that we have together. At the end of the day, we walk out of the school hand in hand. Marty gently squeezes my hand as we walk.

"So, I think everyone's going for milkshakes. Are you in?" he asks me.

"Sure," I say as Marty and I walk side by side. Once we get to a more empty part of town away from the prying eyes of Sergeant Strickland...I mean Principal Strickland, Marty leans down and quickly pecks me on the lips. I look up at him questioningly and he grins at me,

"That was me....returning your favor from the other day."

"So it was," I reply before leaning up and gently pressing my lips to his. He deepens the kiss and pulls me closer to him. After a few seconds, we pull apart and I smile at him. "We should probably get going," I say, "Everyone's gonna wonder what happened to us." Marty nods his head in agreement.

"Yeah, I guess you're right," he says.

"Keep this on the down low?" I ask and Marty shrugs.

"You know I can't do it for long," he replies.

"Can we wait before the whole school sees it? I kind of like keeping this between us for the time being," I say and Marty nods.

"Yeah...oh and by the way, don't worry about me and Jennifer Parker. I think I've found the right girl for me," he says with a smile on his face. I blush and take his hand as we walk the rest of the way to Burger King. The girls are already there and Marty and I walk in together, our hands still intertwined. Nat, Alex, and Jaz all look up with smiles on their faces at seeing us. Marty pulls me over to sit with him and I do as he wants. I see Nat, Jaz and Alex quickly pick up and pull up some chairs to the booth where the guys and I are at. Nat and Alex shoot me excited grins. Marty casually slings an arm over my shoulders and lays his hand flat against his jacket on me. I smile at my friends and mouth a silent "thank you" in their direction. These crazy little things that people do for this crazy little thing called love. I lean my head against Marty's shoulder, thankful for the friends around me and the boy sitting right next to me.

AN:/ Hope you all enjoyed that!!! That's the first time I've put out a drabble on Wattpad so I hope you guys like the style and that it works well. I might intermittently post them from time to time when I think I want to share one. I have one finished that involves Luke Skywalker as well if anyone would be interested in that. That one's a cutie too.

Marty is a character that I for some reason can really see myself with and he's just so adorable. I really like him a lot and I like the way that the personalities mesh when I write things together. His personality is super fun to write too.

Did I do okay with characterization? Did you guys like it in general? I hope it was pretty cute and fun to read. I'm hoping to just throw out some drabbles as I like them here and there. I wouldn't expect it all the time but from time to time....you might see one go by. :) These are more for me and a friend or two's private enjoyment which is why I've been writing them but haven't actually posted anything so here we go. Here's something everybody can enjoy!! I hope you like it..please feel free to drop your thoughts as you go. If you like this OC and you would like to maybe see her go through the trilogy with Marty (that would be the same character but she wouldn't necessarily be in this AU (so that way her first kiss can happen in something actually canon), please drop a comment saying so!! Thank you so much for reading, voting and doing whatever it is you do (and yes, I count full out fangirling as a thing because I do it ALL THE TIME. There's many people on here who can testify to that.)

Anyways...I'll see you guys around. Next up in this book is gonna be a Star Wars themed tag...really I'm just gonna say 13 things that I like about Star Wars which will probably be me ranking the movies and then talking about my favorite characters (while fangirling over Luke Skywalker which I NEVER do...;) Jk.)

See you around, friends (even though I already said it...it's my outro thingy)
