CHAPTER ELEVEN

Alexa

"Enough of this Alexa. You can't keep doing this. It's going to get one of us in trouble." Stacey whispered urgently, beside me.

I ignored my best friend, continuing to mess with Devon's locker. Sneaking into school had been much harder than the movies made it out to be, but Stacey and I had been able to make it inside.

For a guy, Devon's locker was surely neat, since all his books had been arranged alphabetically, his textbooks, notebooks, pens and pencils all arranged on one side. The other side held a basketball that was probably from gym class. Devon didn't play any games.

To my disappointment, nothing personal was in his locker. Could been actually nice to have something over that fool's head. Probably like a diary or perhaps a handwritten letter to a girl he liked.

I chuckled inwardly as I thought about how funny it would be to embarrass the school's badboy when his 'romantic' display was pinned on all the school's notice boards and the s

I still love you."I sighed with relief, my anger leaving as I heard those words from him. "Then please stop letting me down, will you?""It won't happen again. I promise I'll make it all up to you."

    Mischief overloadCHAPTER THIRTEENDevonIt's been a few silent days between Alexa and I, but that wasn't going to be that way anymore. Not for long anyway.I let her have her fun, but it was my turn now. I had been watching her lately and even though she seemed calm and collected, laughing with her friends and having fun, she never failed to look back over her shoulder.Smart girl.I might have not retaliated at her moves and pranks, but that doesn't mean I wasn't brewing something.Currently, I was sitting in a Spanish class, listening to a Mr. Louis Hoz- something droning on and on about how it was important to differentiate his/her nouns.Alexa wasn't in this class, but she was in the next. Chemistry. The best part is, we are partners.After fifteen minutes of torturous waiting, the bell finally rang, signaling the end of Spanish. Phew. I was smirking with glee and excitement. I just couldn't wait to see the look on Alexa's face. The fact that she didn't know exactly when I was

    BetrayalCHAPTER FOURTEENAlexaNumbness.That’s all I felt. Or maybe I just didn’t want to feel anymore.I couldn’t breathe. I couldn’t feel or do anything, my mind playing over and over the scene I had witnessed.Voices buzzed around me, but I couldn’t register what was being said. Someone touched me, causing me to look up. I met Devon’s gaze head on. “Alexa, let’s go. I don’t think we need to be here.”I could hear his voice, but none of his words registered in my head. I turned away from him, my gaze on my now ex-boyfriend and of course my ex-best friend. “Why?”I didn’t realize I had asked the question, but then it was already out there. Neither Demi nor Nick met my eyes. I didn’t expect them to say anything, but wasn’t this evening just full of surprises?“It’s not what it looks like.” Nick said, trying to take a step closer to me. I took a step back, warning him to stay back. Nick stayed where he was, taking the hint. “Alexa, please . . . “Nick tried again, but I wasn’t havin

    Aftermaths of a breakupCHAPTER FIFTEENAlexaI groaned, turning away from the sudden assault of light to my sensitive eyes. I pulled the covers up, ready to completely wrap myself up in them, but I didn’t get the chance to complete the task because they were suddenly being tugged away.“Oh no you don’t young lady.” My mom’s voice was angry as she completely rid me of my covers, exposing me to the light chill in the room. It was no longer dim as she had completely opened both my windows, tugging aside the silvery curtains to let light in. Since my eyes were swollen, it kinda hurt looking through the blinding brightness. I winced, feeling a slight pounding coming on from crying the whole night. A headache was already coming on, and this was just beginning. F**king Great.I didn’t get the chance to roll back to the comforts of my bed before I felt my mother’s looming shadow over me. I opened one bleary eye, squinting it from the still sensitive light in the room. Sitting up and slightl

    StaceyCHAPTER SIXTEENAlexaI was currently slouched in my favorite loveseat, half-heartedly doing my homework. Mom had only left an hour ago, after receiving a zillion calls from dad, demanding her presence at work.My pen making contact with paper was the only sound that filled the room. Doing homework was the only thing that was keeping me from my self-destructing thoughts. I had a pile of it, and the distraction it offered was welcome. For the first time (or the second time, is it?), I was grateful that Devon had dropped my homework for me. However, I didn’t want to owe so much to him. First, him taking the blame for our suspension (It was his fault) and then bringing my homework home? Plus how did he get his hands on it? We were both suspended, and knowing Devon, he had no close friends yet.The sound of my doorbell ringing tagged me out of my thoughts. With a sigh, I rose from the loveseat, wondering who it could be. Perhaps it was the mailman, but then we had a mailbox, and

    Disastrous summer balls and club nights- pt.1CHAPTER SEVENTEENAlexaThis Year’s summer ball sucked. For very many reasons.I had a very horrible dress. I had bought it last minute, no care, feeling or thought put into it. I had only bought the dress because Stacey had thought it looked good on me. Personally, I didn’t care about it. Besides, I couldn’t bring myself to wear that beautiful lush dark red velvet dress that was now tucked away in my closet. I had meant to wear it for that bastard, but oh well, he had to go and ruin it.Whoever had decided to decorate this year’s summer ball theme surely lacked a lot of skill. Everything was cheap ass basic, like every material from the balloons to the fucking disco lights was bought from Shein. We could have used some standard please.Third and WORST OF ALL, I was practically third wheeling. THIRDWHEELING. Never in my life did I think myself to do such a thing, but here I was, practically letting my friend drag me along with her and her

    Disastrous summer balls and club nights- pt.2CHAPTER EIGHTEENAlexaIt was one thing to tell yourself the truth, but it was entirely a whole other thing to believe it. I once heard a quote that said, ‘there are five stages of grief; denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance’. At this point, I had no idea what I was feeling.I swayed gently to the music in the club, a plastic cup of beer in hand. Perhaps I was already half drunk, but I didn’t care. I wanted to forget the hurt and pain that still coursed through my blood stream. The club smelled of sweat and alcohol, bodies pressing together as we all wiggled our bodies to the rhythm of the music.As soon as I had left the summer ball, I had sent a message to Stacey, telling her I had left and she needn’t worry. Encouraging her to have fun with her date, I switched off my phone, effectively shutting out and blocking anything that would disturb my peace.I had gone home, changed out of ‘the’ dress and then got myself into a s

    Frenemy to the Rescue Devon’s Pov CHAPTER NINETEEN It was 3 o’clock in the morning by the time I arrived at the club. Sending a nod of acknowledgement to Mike, my brother’s best bodyguard and head of security, I was granted access, avoiding the long line of people that were still waiting to get in. I saw a few of the people send glares and jealous glances my way, but I paid no attention to them. I made it inside, and immediately, I was assaulted by the sound of loud music, sweat and laughter. I made my way to the bar, grinning as I found my favorite bartender, Gordon working the tables. “Boy, aren’t I glad it’s you I found working this place tonight.” “I am the best. Ain’t I?” Gordon returned as we made our signature handshake. “Don’t get over yourself.” I returned, smirking at him as I took a seat on one of the barstools. I grabbed my phone from my jacket, wanting to text Harry to let him know that I was here, but as if summoned, he turned up at the counter all by himself. I

He had sounded so genuine, so hopeful and optimistic about his feelings. I wasn't a fool not to realize that he had meant each word, but at the end of it all, I had turned him down. I so badly wanted to say yes and jump in his arms, screaming my lungs out in both excitement and happiness, but that hadn't been the case. All my fears and doubts had come rushing down, forcing me to question everything. It was then that I decided I still very much needed to work on myself. I had to be true to myself before I could be true to anyoneanyone else. Devon especially. It wa three months going on four since I had broken up with my ex and honestly, I wasn't sure if I was really ready to get into another relationship.

    I caught feelings-pt.2CHAPTER THIRTYAlexaI fought him, the moment my brain recovered it's functionality. Initially, I had frozen, shocked at the unexpected turn of events, but that was no more. I struggled in his arms, using my nails to scratch him wherever I could reach, trying to break free from him. When that didn't work, I bit him, as hard as I could until I tasted the metallic taste of blood, but all through that, Devon didn't let go or stop. He had a gentle but firm grip on my face. His kisses remained gentle, coaxing and soothing. His teeth nibbled on my lips, gently begging as he sucked and licked, using his lips where words weren't spoken.I felt myself begin to go slack in his arms and when I couldn't hold back my own pleasure from his kisses, I decided to kiss him back. Everything began at a slow tempo, light and passionate, with Devon's hand gently caressing my face and following a path to my hair. Suddenly, he pushed his tongue in my mouth, seeking entrance, and I le

It wasn't for long though and I expected him to return this weekend. It was after school hours and Stacey and I were currently hanging out in my bedroom as she filled me in about school's latest gossip. "That's crazy. ""It's crazy what kids these days will do for a grade. Mandy literally did all that for a B. Granted, her dad had promised getting her a Porsche, but if you ask me, going down on our teacher in the Chemistry lab was going a little far. ""Well, now Mr. Terry is facing 15years in prison and as a registered sex offender and pedophile. But if we're being honest here, he'll probably not be making it out alive, especially not with Mandy's father's influence. "We both stayed silent, soaking in the information.

I leaned back against my back, crossing my arms with a shit eating grin as I watched Alexa squeal in excitement. I had come up with the idea after much thought, and I was glad it was actually paying off. "Yeah. I remember you told me about it a few months ago and that you hadn't been to one since you were a kid." I explained as we both made our way to where the tickets were being sold. Grabbing my wallet, I paid for our entrance tickets. "You actually remembered?" She sounded like she was touched. "Of course I did. I looked up one online and fortunately found one that wasn't far away from where we lived." "Devon..." Her adorably eyes rounded beautifully as we made eye contact and I couldn't help but smile at her, scratching the back of my head. "I just wanted to make sure you got to have fun." A sweet silence echoed between us, both lost within each other's eyes. The moment ho

    Hanging out-part2CHAPTER TWENTY SEVENDevonI was currently perched at the front porch of my girlfriend's house, waiting for the doorbell that I had rang just a couple of seconds ago to be answered. Alexa, though only being my girlfriend in name only and none of it being real, it felt good to address her as such. My initial feelings at the moment were far from those that I felt from when we first met. However, with a few moments and some dramatic events occuring in both our live, I had found myself catching feelings for her.I had caught onto what a kind and brilliant person she was, especially during the library dates we had both shared over the past summer. I was dragged out of my thoughts when the door opened, revealing her mother. She was a beautiful blonde woman in her mid-forties and I could tell that Alexa had got her looks from her. She smiled pleasantly as she greeted me, "Hello.""Hi." I replied, handing over the bouquet of flowers I had in hand. They had originally bee

    Hanging outCHAPTER TWENTY SIXAlexa"Mom," I yelled for my mother who was currently in the kitchen. "Could you please help me see the person who's at the door?""Sure, sweetie."Finishing my shower, I wrapped the towel around my body and did the same for my hair. Strolling back into my room, I sat at my dressing table and swiftly began my hair.I quickly applied my body lotion and skincare before I changed into a short pair of denim shorts and a giant sized hoodie. I also tried my hair up in a mess bun.Shortly after I was done, my mom came knocking on my door. "Alexa, it's me sweetie, may I come in?""Of course."She peeked her head inside before coming fully inside. She was smirking at me and I was curious as to why she was doing that."So, who was at the door mom?""Oh." Her grin widened. "It was a young gentleman. He told me he was your boyfriend. He's currently waiting downstairs in the living room."My jaw dropped. There was no doubt she was possibly talking about Devon. I rush

It’s just that the video is so mesmerizing.”Stacey and I were currently hanging out in the cafeteria. Her lunch was long forgotten, since she was nose deep buried in her phone screen.Unintelligible sounds came from her phone speakers, eliciting a sigh from me. “Would please quit watching that forsaken video.”“I can’t.” She said. Not that I was hoping she would agree to what I was asking. After that show that Devon and I had put on earlier today, it was no surprise that someone had caught us on video.A lot of eyes had been watching us.Four hours later and the video was already going viral on the school community site. While Devon and I had definitely put on a show for everyone in the hallway, I hadn't even expected that it would go this far.Devon had been really attentive to my needs, and he had been really dedicated to convincing everyone that he was

I stared at it, shocked at how warm it felt on my skin. Nevertheless, I hadn’t expected him to touch me.“Relax. Your leg has been going a mile per minute, and I can hear the wheels turning in your head all the way from here.”“I just can’t stop thinking. What if…” all this was a bad idea? I didn’t dare complete the sentence. Looking at him, I knew he could tell what I was going to say. A few weeks before school could start, we had spent a lot of time together, enough to know about each other so we could keep our fake relationship going and convincing.This being our first day, we had both agreed he would drive

Do I look okay?” I asked, gesturing to my denim black shorts and red tank top and fuzzy slippers. “You look cute, but change into something comfortable, something that won’t make it seem like you are being too forward. Like you didn’t put too much thought into it?” “Like jeans and a tank?” “Exactly. Gosh, you sound like you’ve never done this before. Relax, babe. Don’t think much into it.” Stacey advised. “Ok.
