"I am bored!" I whine, slumping in my seat in the cafeteria. I sigh as I place my head on Gabriel's shoulder. "And I am sleepy." I say, closing my eyes.Gabe huffs at my dramatic display."Were you watching a movie last night?" Jared asks. I open my eyes to find him eating fries from my tray.This monster!I slap his hand away, sitting up.Doesn’t this guy know that you should never steal Aviana’s food?!"I was but that's not the point. We haven't gone somewhere to hang out and just have fun for a long time!" I say before I start eating the fries.Ever since the protest, the food quality
"Aviana!" I was laughing at what Ryan had said when I heard someone calling out for me. I turn to the direction of the voice to find Kayden and Mason coming towards us.Me and my friends had been standing here with Ryan Peterson himself. He claimed that we were the best group of people amongst all the others at the party.Now, if that isn’t flattering, I don’t know what is…"Mason!" Caroline exclaims before she rushes to Mason with a big smile on her face. Mason and Caroline both hug each other while me and my friends laugh.They’re just so cute!And it’s refreshing to see Caroline being like this, this happy and excited, with someone. And that too, someone nice like Mason.I’m so damn happy for them!"Mr. Knight! It's so nice to see you." Ryan says, extending his hand to Kayden for a handshake. Kayden shakes his hand with a slight, formal nod."Happy Birthday, Mr. Peterson." Kayden says in a business-like tone. I look at their exchange and frown.That was so… dry!"That's what you
I leave my room to go to work when I hear a familiar sweet laughter coming from the kitchen, making me frown. Wasn’t she supposed to be in college by now? I make my way to the kitchen to find her sitting at the breakfast bar on her chair, laughing at something with Martha. I’m awestruck as I take in her. She is wearing a plain black summer dress which comes to her mid-thigh with a pair of knee-length heeled boots. Dear good lord!When she looks at me, she waves at me with her usual grin."Good Morning, Kayden!" She says when I reach her. She stands up and wraps her arms around my neck, shocking me. I quickly recover from the shock and wrap my arms around her waist. "I missed you." she mumbles.Ever since the party almost two weeks ago, we haven't really seen each other. She was busy all week and so was I. I even worked on weekends to keep myself busy. I didn't even see her in the morning because she was either getting ready or she was at her rehearsals. And I won't lie, I really d
As the doors of the lift open, I quickly press the buttons to take me back up to the penthouse. I can’t just leave Aviana like that. I have to prove to her that I am not a monster, that I am not a beast. I have to apologize for what I said when my brain wasn’t working. She was just trying to help! Why on earth did I shout at her like that? What might she be thinking about me now!? I have to make everything alright. I have to do something fast!I rush back into the house. Martha looks at me with a startled expression as I enter the kitchen in search of Aviana. She gives me a knowing smile as she recovers from her shock. Right. Aviana went to her room…I awkwardly nod at Martha, who is smirking at me now, before I walk towards Aviana’s room.“Aviana?” I call out as I knock on her door. I stand there patiently. The rooms in the house are soundproof so I am not able to hear anything happening inside the room. After a minute, I knock on the door again.The door opens to reveal a ver
I open my eyes to find my face resting on Kayden’s muscular chest, his arm wrapped tightly around my waist. I look up at his face to see a peaceful expression on his face. It is still a little too early in the morning, so there isn’t much light but I can still see his face clearly. I reach up to touch his cheek when I feel him stirring in his sleep. I pull my hand back and look down, pretending to be asleep.Did I wake him up?Darn it!If he finds out that I’ve been staring at him in his sleep, he’ll surely think that I’m a creep!“I know you are up.” I hear his deep husky voice which contains a hint of humour. I sheepishly look up into his deep green eyes, making him chuckle. “Good Morning, princess.” He says in a husky whisper. I feel the heat creeping up to my cheeks at the endearment but I maintain my composure as I look directly into his eyes.I am Aviana the great! I am not one who gets embarrassed easily. I am someone who embarrasses people with ease!And I’ll show that to h
“I can’t believe it!” I suddenly speak up as I stare at my phone screen in shock. It is five minutes past midnight which means it is Monday already. “What happened?” Kayden asks as he looks at me with a frown. Kayden and I are sitting on the couch with his arm wrapped around my shoulder and my head placed on his chest as I lean on him while we watch the live drama. The live drama being Mason and Caroline arguing with each other on the floor in front of us about something I don't remember. I'm pretty sure that they themselves don't remember why they started arguing in the first place. After breakfast, the four of us decided to spend some time together so after we all got home, took our shower and got ready, we went to a fair. We enjoyed it a lot and we were tired but it wasn’t too late so we came back to Kayden’s penthouse to chill. We watched two movies before we started talking about random things. We were all laughing and joking around, having fun. I didn't even reali
“What are you doing now?” I ask when I hear the loud background noise as Aviana picks up my call. I can hear people shouting in the background and it sounds like a big crowd. I smile as I think about how serious she was last time about protesting about French fries.This girl is seriously unlike anyone I've ever met!“Hey! I am not the one who got all these people here! It was Jared!” She says in a defensive tone.I can almost imagine the pout she must be sporting right at this moment. I chuckle and shake my head.“What is happening there?” I ask her. I hear some shuffling from the other end before the background voices become a little lesser. Aviana sighs tiredly on the other end before she replies.“Jared got a project in which he’s making a small movie with a friend. Half of the movie is completed so they had to gather a little crowd to see it. That idiot told everyone that our band will be singing live and now almost the whole college is here. Even a few teachers are here.” Sh
“Okay, don’t be angry but I kinda really need your help.” I hear Aviana’s sweet voice whispering as soon as I put the phone to my ear. Wow! This must be the first time that she has called me and to say that I’m not shocked would be a big fat lie. And she needs my help… At least that means that she trusts me to some extent. “Hello to you too! Where are you and what kind of help are you talking about?” I say as a smile instantly forms on my face. I cannot help but smile with her. Nowadays, just her voice or her face or even a thought about her is enough for a smile to form on my face. See ho

"Aviana?" I call out, knocking lightly on her door. It's been about an hour since Caroline and Mason left. And I can't take it anymore. I have to see her face. I have to make sure that she's alright. Right now, my brain and my heart both are telling me to reach out to her.I just have to reach out to her…"Come in." She speaks up in her soft voice from inside the room. I hesitantly open the door and look around the room.The walls of the room are plain white in colour but she's made that look not so plain with a colourful feather drawn on one of the walls while the other had about a hundred picture frames of different size placed close to each other to make a heart shape. Her plain dark wooden desk is nicely arranged with a few folders on the side and a cute pencil-stand and her laptop. Her room looked clean and kind of lively. It felt like a fresh breath of air in front of my plain and dead room. Though it wasn't as big as my room, it looked a lot better. It was big but not lonely
