Tory's POV
As I stood there watching Rex still outside the room- and a shirtless Nate, glare at each other, I could feel the hurt and pain in Rex's eyes as he saw Isabella. Unlike Nate, she was visibly embarrassed and had tried to break the silence and tension in the atmosphere but the words weren't coming out of her mouth but when she nervously bites her lips - lips that Nate had just kissed, Rex lost his mind and started storming towards an unapologetic Nate.
" Woah wait!" I said as I stepped in between them.
" Tory, get out of my way. Right now" Rex snapped.
" Rex, you need to listen to me. I know you're pissed and you probably want to strangle this asshole right now but first listen"
" What the hell do you think will stop me from beating the shit out of him!" Rex roared and Nate chuckled.
" Do you want the whole school to know about this?!" I said knowing full well that Rex
Nate's POVI had stopped kissing Isabella by the time I heard people cheering in the hallway." What the - " Isabella said as her hands dropped from my chest.I didn't care, I was too busy watching Tory and Rex making out like people that couldn't get enough of each other.A pang of pain hit me as I heard him moan at the touch of her hands in his hair and as she kissed him deeper. Damn, she looks like a fucking good kisser!People had already brought out their phone recording before Rex finally ended the kiss and they stood there breathing heavily. His arms were still wrapped around her waist, her boobs still so close to his chest, her cheeks were red, and her lips... They were already even more full than before, swollen from their kiss.Why d
Tory's POVAnger swelled within me when I saw Rex's battered face, how could Nate have messed up his face like that? What made them fight. You fool, of course, it's over Isabella! - I told myself.I stepped aside so Nate would pass, he too was well battered in the face, not as Rex's was but good enough, I ran over to where Rex was and he pulled me in a tight embrace before I released myself from his grip and clean his nose with my handkerchief." You should have that taken care of " Mr. Alvarez said to Rex and Jake as well as Victor escorted him to the nurse.I stared daggers at Nate as I watched him walk down the hall till he took a left and entered the boys' restroom. About four boys came running out after he entered and I shook my head.I never knew I could hate Nate any worse until now. He's such a wicked, selfish, heartless swine that deserves to be arrested for all the evil he's do
Tory's POVRex carried me upstairs to his room and I just wrapped myself around his broad shoulders, taking in his pleasant scent. His hair, now curly from the shower, bobbed up and down his forehead as he raced upstairs.Finally, he opened the door to his room and lay me on the bed, I didn't even care to see how his room looked like because his beautiful blue eyes were now on me as he laid on my body for a minute. Then he got up and lay down on his back, both our faces facing the ceiling." Typical boys room " I said now noticing the tossed clothes here and there, video gamepads, snacks on his table, overall it wasn't all that messy.When he didn't reply I turned to face him and found him staring at me." So you brought me here to stare at me?"" I can't resist you, Tory, it's not my fault"" You know for a guy who just found
Tory's POV" How did this happen?" I asked, my eyes widened in shock." I... It just happened once" Tia said nervously." Who is the father?"" Please don't hate me"" Tia, as far as it isn't Rex I won't"She laughed nervously before she said, " it's Brian"."Oh my God!" I said in whispers as I covered my mouth." I thought you said you don't like him?"" That I had sex with him doesn't mean that I like him"" So what are you gonna do?"" I want to keep it. It's the right thing to do, it's just that mom is gonna go raving mad at me"" She sure is"" Tory!"" I'm sorry, I just don't know what we're going to do, the pregnancy is how long?"She gulped before she looked me in the eye and then at the ground again.
Nate's POV" Good evening master McClain" chef Chu said as I stormed into the house. I didn't say a word instead I went straight to my room, slamming the door so hard that I thought it'll break, I wanted it to break but it didn't.Why did today suck so much to me?I won the football match, but I made Zach hurt Victor. What the hell is wrong with me?I noticed my heartbeat had doubled and I knew I needed to cool off, so I took off my clothes and entered the shower.Just like magic, my whole body became calm, my breathing now normal, my heart rate felt okay. I sighed as I passed my hand through my hair and that horrible memory I always try to forget started coming back.I tried to stop it but I couldn't.It was in 2014, April 15 to be precise, we were still in London then. I had come back from school that Tuesday, I was so devastated because I had come second in my c
Tory's POVWhen I got back from school, I kept to myself, angry that Nate had tossed me away like some useless toy, just like how Woody would feel sad that the kid didn't want to play with him.But why did I care? I hate Nate? Why did the way he looked at me before he pushed me away hurt so much? Am I attracted to him? Why did I not protest when he tried to kiss me. Ugh!As I sat down on the couch, eating chips and watching TV, mom who had already arrived earlier this week, came rushing downstairs from her room." Is everything okay?" Toni asked" Tiffany, she said she needs help with her son"" Of course she does, she's a horrible parent, never cared about the poor boy. I bet he's had enough of her neglect and has decided to take his life. You know if I were his mom, I'd do a better job." I said indifferently as I chewed on my chips.My mother walked br
Tory's POVIt has been a week since Nate's episode. Apparently, he is suicidal, which was something that I found extremely surprising since he thinks of himself as a literal God.It's Thursday and everyone was settling down in class when Nate walked in, the class was silent, not because they knew about what happened last week at his house, but because he had a very annoyed look on his face. That meant that no one should try to speak to him.He sat down in front of Rex, whose attention was on me, his face was now in a frown, he was probably wondering why I was staring at Nate, but my mom had made Toni and I promise not to say anything to a soul." Are you okay?"" Yeah, just praying my mood doesn't go sour," I said and he chuckled, knowing why I said that." You know that I can fucking hear you right?" Nate asked clearly pissed." She can say whatev
Nate's POVI sat down at lunch, unable to eat my lunch because I was thinking about how bad today went.Honestly, I don't regret breaking Troas's thumb, what I regret was that I should've broken more than just a thumb - at least that would be worth the punishment I'm getting."Tory is a game-changer" I said to myself.For two years I have remained unpunished because Mr Jenkins feared that if he punished me, I would keep to my word and expose his dirty little secret - his disgusting sex tape that I found in Tiffany's bedroom.That was what I threatened him with two years ago when he had called me in for almost assaulting a teacher. He was so shocked that I had it and he had just gotten appointed principal of the school, I knew the last thing he needed was for me to leak the sex tape and destroy his image.What he didn't know was that I honestly wouldn't ha
Nate's POVIt's been almost three weeks since the police arrested big D. They said one of his closet associates outed him and got him arrested at his hideout. Rex on the other hand was badly injured and is at a hospital.Detective Mason told me to stay put for a while, so they could see if someone would come after me. Since then, I've been hiding at a crappy motel. He called me a week ago saying that the coast is clear, so he sent police escorts with me and I went home.I've been home for a week and I've not been able to speak to Tory. Apparently, she never knew that the headset she got me was bugged, but detective Mason did say he eventually told her.I really wanted to see her but according to detective Mason, she's been in a really bad place. Worried and paranoid that Big D would kill me one way or the other.I lay on my bed that afternoon wondering what I should do
Tory's POV" What's wrong?" I asked tucking my hair behind my ears." it's time for me to go Rya."" Oh..." I said sadly." Yeah"" I got this for you," I said giving him a headphone" It's got all the songs that remind me of you, songs that we both used to listen to when we hang out." He didn't smile the way I imagined he would when I held it out to him. He just sighed and pulled me in for a passionate kiss, the sound of people cheering made me realize that their eyes were still on us.Nate and I kissed passionately until he summoned the will to break the kiss. " I got this for you," he said handing me a silver necklace with a pendant. I lifted my hair, he helped me put on the necklace and kissed my neck before he whispered in my ear, " open the pendant".I turned around to face him before I opened the pendant and gasped before I
Tory's POVI looked at myself in the mirror and was grateful that mom put in my purse lip gloss and powder. Otherwise, I don't know what I would've done about my face that Nate hadn't spared from scattering kisses all over during our lovemaking." You don't need it, I told you"" Nate just because you don't see my flaws doesn't mean that other people miss it as well."" You have no flaws," he said with a smile as he used his hand to keep his hair slicked back before he got down from the car and went around to get the door for me." Let's get this over with shall we?" He said as he offered me his hand and I took it as I got out of the car." We're kinda late."" Well, that's not entirely my fault. You were the one taking your precious time sleeping with me ."" Let's go already okay?" I said, blushing as I remembered how I didn't want us
Tory's POV" Okay, now look in the mirror," my mom said and I turned my chair around. " Oh my goodness"" Close enough," Toni said with a smirk, her make up was done first and she looked amazing. Though she didn't want her hair curled up so she looked different, she still looked beautiful. She was wearing a long, black gown with silver patters and a silver necklace and earrings to match. She was perfect." Nate's gonna give the perfect word that describes you," Tia said as she sat on my bed and carefully touched my hair." I'll be downstairs"" Okay Mom" we chorused." Tia, why don't you wanna come with us for prom?" Toni said" Because I can't. My stomach's outing my pregnancy, marriage is what's on my mind now. Besides, I already did prom in the junior year so..."" You know, I feel you'll win this year - prom Queen."
Tory's POVThankfully, detective Mason got back before we left for prom. He just stood by my mom, looking at her with a nervous look on his face as she sat on the couch sipping wine. I was hiding by the stairs as I watched them." Valora"" Don't Mason, just- don't."" What was I supposed to do? I'm sorry I ruined your lunch with your in-laws to be but... I had to."" Just tell me what you found out." Mom said irritably." Brian's father owes Big D, apparently Mr. Tremblay isn't just some wealthy businessman, he has men who do dirty work for Big D, in order words he trains boys to become assassins for Big D's use."My mom dropped her wine glass and sat up on the chair." I'm gonna need you to sit down Mason."" Fine" Mason said sitting down." Go on"" One day, Mr. Tremblay thought to be
Tory's POVToday is a big day. Brian's family will be coming over to our house for lunch and my mom was very ready to ensure that everything was " above their proud standards" as she put it.I had already done my part in assisting my mom with the table setting - which she chose to handle by herself. Now, she's telling my sisters and I how to " behave"." This is just outrageous mom. You expect me to act like I'm some Barbie princess just because Brian's parents are British? They're not even royalty!" Toni whined." What's the point of meeting us if we have to pretend to be them?" I whined." Great point Tory!" Toni said, nodding her head vigorously while Tia just smiled." Enough! Whatever, be yourselves but don't embarrass me. I'm not going to let them feel like they're helping us by marrying us - neither will I let them think they're bette
Tory's POVI swallowed hard at the cold way Nate had spoken to me. What did I expect? Flowers and kisses?I sighed as I made my way to Rachel." If you don't give me a fucking explanation as to why you pulled that fucking prank on me, I'm going to kill you right now" I spat and the entire room went silent. Yeah, it's like that when I'm mad." T-tory, it was a game. Okay?"" You texted me that my sister was having an asthma attack! Who invented that game Rachel?"" That's what you wrote?!" She whispered to Zach and he cringed as Joanne sat on his thigh." YOU TYPED THIS?" I asked almost losing my mind to the extent of his foolishness." It was a game okay? I didn't even know who's phone it was." He said, visibly shocked by my outburst." What kind of game is that?"" It was Jake's idea!" They
Tory's POVIt's been a week and four days since Nate and I last spoke - yeah, I've been counting. Sure, I've been seeing him at school, nearly every day. As for Rex, he shows up at school whenever he likes smirking at me every chance he gets.Looking back at it now, I understood why I fell in love with him. He was perfect, he was handsome, sexy, popular and a nice guy, Rex had no bad side known to me and I really believed that he didn't have a bad side.Now, I know what he is and whenever I think about how we kissed or had sex, I see now that he was just using me, I was a means to an end.It was our last day of continuous assessments and I hadn't aced my exam today. I was avoiding Rex, he's been threatening me for some unknown reason.He keeps dragging me inside empty classes, telling me not to screw his plan up, and before I get the chance to ask him what he means he just da
Tory's POVI woke up the next morning to see Nate's perfectly happy and handsome face as he slept like a child. Yesterday was amazing, I lost count of how many times Nate and I had sex literally everywhere in my room. How we talked and played games and then slept all through the night - with Nate waking me up at one point in time for yet another round of steamy sex.It was perfect, but...too good to be true. I think that I'm going to fall in love with Nate and he with me but... I'm not ready to fall so deep in love that when he eventually breaks my heart, I'll end up being pathetic - quite like how Rex made me feel.I missed out on the fundraiser, I wouldn't have if I'd been strong enough to handle Rex's news. I needed to go back to my original plan for my good." Wake up Nate," I said as he started to open his bright green eyes and then he squinted at the bright light seeping through my room from the wi
