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's OfficialChapter Thirty OneAlexaSchool resumed, but I could hardly concentrate throughout any of my classes my mind constantly wandering back to that night. 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. Until I was able to overcome these insecurities, I wouldn't be able to have a stable and healthy relationship with hi
Prank gone wrong CHAPTER ONE Alexa"Stacey. Do we have everything we need?" I asked. "Yes. We do." Stacey replied. "Let's do a double check." "Okay." When I was sure we had everything we needed, I dragged Stacey through the door. Letting ourselves into the car, we both drove off. Oh, Nick was so gonna get it this time. How dare he, cancel our date night. And no, I wasn't being a drama queen. We both had taken a while without spending time with each other, football practices and everything that came with it. As far as I knew, the football coach had given the team a week off, after they had led the state to championship this year. Like every good girlfriend, I had come up with an idea to spend time with my boyfriend, make out with him or something, but of course, I'm the only one that thought that way. Apparently. Having persistently asked him if he would make it this weekend, and him assuring me he would show up, I thought it was a done deal, only for Karma to bitch slap me in
A not so great first meeting CHAPTER TWO Alexa"You." The words left the handsome stranger's lips in a cold soft caress, freezing me to the stop. To put it more clearly, he wasn't so much of a stranger. He was the guy from yesterday.I didn't know how long we stood there, each staring at the other, or more accurately, one glaring and the other drooling. It could have been seconds, minutes, hours, days, heck, even centuries, but I didn't care. His good looks were so out of this world, and I was having my fill. My eyes roamed his face, taking in his sharp jaw, those thick brows, his deep dark brown eyes that almost looked black, and the black studs in his ears. And above all, those full lips that probably kissed any female species to oblivion. I wanted those lips on mine. Whoa, Alexa. Where did that come from? I still had a boyfriend, even though I was still Godzilla angry at him. My eyes trailed lower, finding him in an almost similar outfit from last weekend, except his t-shirt
Apologetic boyfriends and revenge plotsCHAPTER THREEAlexaIt was a weekend again, and this time, I had the house all to myself. My parents were off for a mini vacation to a place they had let me choose for them, leaving me completely alone at my house. I rose earlier than the other days, doned a pair of shorts, matched with a baggie black shirt with the words "day off" printed on it.I applied a face scrub for a couple of minutes, cleaned my teeth, rinsed my face, and then left it make up free. I cleaned my room, and then dashed downstairs.My breakfast was simple, toast and coffee. Lord, whoever that made coffee was a genius. I don't think I would ever do without caffeine.I hadn't made any encounters with hot stranger, aka Devon Prince, as I had come to know what his name was. Any time we crossed paths, we had both ignored each other, only secretly acknowledging each other.Stacey had asked me to avoid him like the plague, which was hard, because he was everywhere. He had drawn him
An interesting turn of events.CHAPTER FOURDevon's POVI sat in my brother's pub for hours, thinking and relocating my plan, replaying it over and over my head.I took a sip from my drink, and watched the group of guys that sat in the right corner of the bar. My fists clenched, but I knew I had to wait. The right time had not yet come. I had to wait. Taking a deep breath, I unclenched them.I downed my drink in one gulp, grabbed a hundred dollar bill from my wallet, left it on the table and then left the pub.Outside, my brother Harry was playing pool with a couple of his friends. For a minute, I considered joining them, but then changed my mind. I need to tour this place, get used to this town, before actually starting school. I only had two days to do that.Without any need to waste any more time, I walked to the pub's packing lot where my bike was parked. Only to be greeted by a very horrifying sight.There, in broad daylig
Tit for tat 1CHAPTER FIVEAlexa"What the hell is this?" I asked the jerk that was currently smirking at me, clearly amused at his antics. Heck, I was pissed off, and right now, I wanted to know how he got the video, and then wipe away that annoying smirk."How did you get this video?" I asked the second time, persistently pushing the phone into his face. He tried taking the phone from me, but I smacked his hand away."Feisty," he said, his annoying smirk still in place. "though it's not going to help you at all. Besides, how I got that video doesn't really matter."Suddenly looking serious, he crowded my space, forcing me to back away. Three more steps back and I was trapped between him and a desk. It dawned on me that locking myself up with him in a classroom wasn't maybe such a good idea. Cornering him alone with something like this wasn't any better. Nevertheless, I wasn't going to let him just intimidate me into submission.He edged closer, so close their was only an airspace be
Tit for tat 2CHAPTER SIXAlexa"I believe I just signed my death sentence." I whined to Stacey as we both walked to our lockers, having met her in the hallway."What do you mean?" She asked, puzzled. A single worry line creased her forehead, and her eyes darted across my face, trying to read the answers from there.I told her about Devon, the video and his ridiculous terms he had forced me to agree to. I watched as her face contorted into various expressions, curiosity, disbelief, horror and then pity."He can't do that. It's not fair." She was furious."It's not like I didn't try." I sounded dejected to my own ears. "It's a good thing he's not black mailing the both of us."I pushed all my books into my locker, watching as she did the same. "To make matters worse, Mr. Stephens paired me with him this morning.""I'm really sorry." Stacey looked guilty, and I knew what she was thinking.Turning my attention to her, I placed my arms on her shoulders, then looked in her deep blue eyes.

I caught feelings. CHAPTER TWENTY NINEAlexaIt was exactly a week from the time Devon and I had our date. At the moment though, he was absent from school and I hadn't seen him for a couple days. 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'm getting chills continuously thinking about it. ""Me too. "The
Hanging out-part2 CHAPTER TWENTY EIGHT Devon "Oh my God. You actually brought me to a carnival." 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
A Supportive BoyfriendCHAPTER TWENTY-FIVEAlexa“Whoa.” “Would you quit saying that? It’s starting to bug me.”“I can’t help it. 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
My boyfriend…fake boyfriend?CHAPTER TWENTY-FOURAlexaMy palms were sweaty.Grabbing a napkin, I wiped them, then let it fall it at my feet. Every minute that ticked by only made my anxiety rise. Maybe this wasn’t such a good idea. Everyone was definitely going to see through this. I shouldn’t have…..“Hey.”Devon whispered beside me, his large hand coming to rest on my knee. 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
The Proposal CHAPTER TWENTY-THREE Alexa “He wants us to meet and talk.” “He does? Then what are you fucking doing here still face timing me, bitch. Go and see him.” Stacey yelled through her excitement. “Go? I don’t even know what’s he’s going to say?” “Go and find out then. You are acting like a really dumb person.” Stacey laughed. I just rolled my eyes at her. “Fine. Fine. I’m going. What do I wear though? 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. I’ve got to get ready. Tell you all about it later.” I promised. “Bye. See you soon.” I said, then hang up. Looks I was going to meet Devon. The air was cool and
