His upper lip moved vertically forming a ‘w’, his tongue darted out and harassed his lower lip. I haven’t been able to get my eyes off his mouth for the past few minutes and all I can think is; wow, he talks weird.

‘Zayn’. Seth’s voice brought me back to the room and I peeled my eyes away from its bizarre object of focus to look at him.

‘What’s your suggestion?’ He asked.

I turned back to tattered to see him giving me the stink eye. I took out the unlit cigarette from my lips.

‘Whatever you say’. I said to Seth. He was a pretty nice guy, as nice as a young drug lord could be.

‘So we just have to find the right man for the job’. He said smiling at the butt naked girl on his lap.

What job? I really should concentrate more at these meetings.

‘Yes, then we will be done with this problem for

    I was laying face up on my bed reading James Patterson's Along Came a Spider, when my dad opened the door till its limits. He has been doing this for the past few weeks in the hopes of catching me raping a nun one day, I think.'Hey dad'. I croaked out.'Zayn, shouldn't you be asleep?''I guess I should but I did that all day so I'm kind of spent'.He coughed awkwardly and I realized my mistake.'That came out wrong'.'Whatever. You shouldn't be reading with such dull lighting, that's why your eye defect keeps getting worst'.'I can see just fine, besides it can't get any worse'.'It actually can but you never listen so what's the point? Don't stay up all night'. He said and closed the door.'Now back to the mystery'. I muttered as I returned to the book I had been reading.A few minutes later, my laptop went off notifying me of an incoming Skype call. I moved to my desk. It was Lau

    ‘She cried for an hour straight before falling asleep and continued the moment she woke up for another hour’. Travis said while I laughed hysterically.‘Kello really did cry when she got her first period? Why didn’t I know about this?’‘She was so embarrassed and the boys just helped in upsetting her more. This is top notch secret, you cannot talk to her about it’.‘I can’t promise when it’s so hilarious’.‘Please, if she ever finds out I told you, she won’t do my laundry for a month’. He pleaded.‘Then you’ll do it yourself’. I stated.‘I don’t even know how to turn on the machine’.I sighed.‘You are a lost case Trav’.‘I thought we established that you’d call me daddy’. He said with a cute pout and I just had to kiss those lips.‘In your dreams’. I said sweetl

    We all sat Indian style facing Queenie. It was three in the morning and the alcohol was beginning to wear off. I had texted Katie and Pokello to join us at Queenie’s when they got back into town.‘So, what are you going to do?’ Katie asked‘Do you even have to ask? She is going to forget his conceited ass after we finish beating him up’. Pokello said with finality.‘We are not beating anyone up’. Queenie rushed out.‘You stay out of this, I am still pissed you didn’t tell us about it, we are supposed to be besties’. Pokello queried.‘Again I’m sorry but no one is beating Andrew. He might be an ass but I still love him’. We all stared at her in horror.‘I said the big L word’. She said more to herself.‘And that is not good’. Katie stated‘You think I don’t know t

    I’m used to having eyes on me but they are usually eyes of high school as well as college girls, envious boys and admiring grandmothers not deadly eyes of murderous stoners.‘What did you say Rodriguez?’ Seth asked. Bloodshot eyes warning me not to test his patience but I wasn’t going to heed to that warning.‘I said I am not the man for the job, give it to someone else’.‘I want it to be you’. He said calmly.‘I cannot do it’. I maintained.‘Why not?’ Tattered butted in.‘I am not a killer’. I said, staring firmly at him.‘That is why we are making you one’. He said like it was the simplest thing in the world.‘Thanks for the kind gesture but I’m good’.‘We insist’. Seth said, taking a drag from his pipe.‘What? Now you think you are better than us?’ Tattered spoke, taking la

    We were all panting and coach looked too happy to see us with our tongues hanging out. Our final game is in three days and we have been practicing our asses off.‘That was a close one tigers’. Coach said ‘Close one? We can barely feel our lungs’. Pokello flared. ‘If you feel your lungs Poks then you have more issues than I thought’. Most of the girls laughed as Pokello glared at coach’s back.‘We have to win this and definitely not because I made a bet with the other coaches. Practice at all times, I mean it and for those of you who haven’t, you still have enough time to get some, you know. I heard it helps relaxes….’‘Ehm coach, I don’t think that is very appropriate for you to say’. I stepped in before he cost himself his job. ‘Whatever. It’s not like you don’t hear it eve

    ‘Oh my god!’ Katie screamed from three lockers away where she was waiting for Queenie to get her books. Kello and I ran to them. Queenie looked like she had seen a ghost and when I looked at her closed locker, I wished that was the case. ‘He did this’. Queenie mumbled. ‘Who?’Growing murmurs from down the hall drew our attention and when I saw the crowd in front of the notice board I knew the picture was pasted there too, the picture of Queenie and Mr. Dawson kissing in bed, barely dressed. I heard Queenie running out but the laughter from our fellow students drowned her footsteps as Pokello and Katie went after her.‘Shut the fuck up!’ I jeered and they quietened. ‘Who did this?’ I snarled but they all stared at me. ‘I will find out who did it and I’m gonna kill them with a garden fork. I’m gonna….’

    We were down by five points and I made it a point to not glance over at coach if I didn’t want to be murdered by eyes. My desire to win had flown away, leaving me with the digging need to make sense of everything in my life.Queenie was sandwiched between Katie and Daniel. Typing away on her phone, probably battling those who had made it their duty to slut-shame her. Yesterday someone inked ‘whore’ onto her locker and she made the o into a blushing smiley.Zayn had a frown etched onto his face from constantly trying to dodge the huge fan~board Gracie was holding that said; MEGHAN IS QUEEN #4. My eyes met with hers and she screamed what I made out to be: you can do it sis!The bleachers were overcrowded and the cheers deafening, almost drowning out the screams of my teammates. Pokello was playing center while I was the small forward. We needed at least three goals, two if w

    Her uncharacteristic silence bugged me. Mom had seen me leave to get her but luckily for us, she wasn’t in the living room when we got back so we hurried to my room and she quickly placed herself by the window.‘Okay seriously. What’s wrong?’ I asked, again.‘Nothing. I’m just party-lagged’.‘Party-lagged? Is... That is not even a thing and if it were I think it’d be characterized by drowsiness, impaired speech and nausea not dead silence’.‘Don’t tell me you miss my voice’.‘No? I just hate to be bored’.‘Well I’m not here to entertain you. You were supposed to tell me something?’Her voice was steely.‘Did Travis do something? Coz the last time you were transferring aggression like this he had dumped you for a cat’. I regretted it the second I said it but her reaction conf

    Final chapter 😢I owed June an apology. Maybe she forced me to wear granny’s dress for her wedding but it was better than having to look like an over blossomed sunflower. We even had knee-highs on with some silly looking magicians’ hat. I seemed to be the only one who missed her bubbly pills coz my friends were rocking it with smiling faces.Personally, I think my sisters used their weddings as excuses to embarrass me. Maybe on my day I will make it up to myself by appearing in ripped jeans and Jordans.‘Will you stop frowning? You are making my booze lose its buzz’. Pokello said from beside me, downing her fourth or fifth glass of whatever it is Stuart’s mom had served. She had insisted on having the wedding reception at her house and Sue was more than happy to let her do all the screaming and organizing. She was currently destroying Ma

    She still managed to look wild even when beaten down, shot and broken, the girl I love still didn’t back down, she fought to live and conquer and I couldn’t be more smitten.She stirred in her sleep and frowned deeply, she must have been having a bad dream, I knew I would have a ton of them if I had gone through what she had, not that I didn’t have my fair share of nightmares. I guess it’s something we will both have to live with. Things will get better, for her sake, I had to believe they would.Sue placed a hand on my shoulder, she had returned to the room with the doctor shortly after Meghan fell asleep. They said she was okay and that was all I needed to hear.‘Go home Zayn. You’ve been here for over 24hours, you need rest and you stink. It wouldn’t hurt to shave too’. She pulled on a serious tone that just made me laugh.‘What if she

    I didn't know what was happening, I'm not sure anything was but I felt light and my head felt like a ball of candy floss. I felt calm, maybe I was going to heaven, it wasn't so bad but my eyes faltered open and when I saw those green orbs blocking my view of everything else I knew there could be heaven on earth and I smiled. He pushed the hair away from my forehead.'Go back to sleep captain, let the morphine work'. Then it was dark again, maybe I was dreaming.I woke up to the annoying sound of things being placed on metal. As my ears adjusted to the harsh light, I scanned the room. White walls, cheap TV, IV fluid, no undies; hospital.My mom stood to my left creating more of that annoying sound by placing more stuff on the small table there.'Mom'. She was a little startled as she turned to caste sunken eyes on me.'Baby. Are you okay?' she sat on the bed an

    'Zayn, I did it. I killed Tyler Harden'. That was all it took to dampen my good mood. I had been avoiding it but I didn't expect Seth to give the job to someone else. I thought I could sort things out without anyone having to die but now I wasn't sure this death was going to be the last.One look at Meghan's face and I hated myself. I knew the connection she shared with the Hardens, she wouldn't take the news well.'Zayn? What's going on?' This was bad I took her hands in mine. 'Meghan...' I wanted to tell her I will fix things. I wanted her to know that I will protect her with everything I have, I wanted to tell her she'd consumed every part of me and I'd do right by her but I settled for an apology for screwing things up.'I'm so sorry'.I dashed off and placed a call to the first number on my call log. He picked on the first ring.'Steve'. I said as I

    Pokello was out of the car with lightning speed as soon as we got to her house. I locked the door and rushed in after her into the living room.The sight that greeted me was unusual; all the Harden brothers were gathered in the living room, including Trevor who was smoking joint. Travis sat on the sofa arm with a bottle of whiskey staring off. For the first time, the twins sat rubbing shoulders by the stairs, avoiding eye contact with everyone.It wasn’t until Pokello fell to her knees by the sofa where Tyler was laid that I looked at him. He was still, unnaturally so, like he was holding his breath. His black t-shirt was damp by the chest region and his eyes looked like they had been forced closed. Travis took a swig from the bottle and I followed the movement to his mouth, noticing the red stain on his palm.Pokello began sobbing or maybe she already had and they just got louder, I wasn’t sure. She gripped his torso and moaned i

    Comfort. That is what I felt as I walked down the stairs from my room. Gracie and Stuart’s engagement was in full swing and even as she didn’t let me wear jeans and polo, I was grateful to not be stuck in a ball gown.The guests were too many which was typical of Gracie plus Stuart’s family was pretty well known. Mom had been busy planning the whole thing and sieving through caterers, she was so stressed I thought she wouldn’t make it to the actual wedding. Even now she was busy, moving from guest to guest, ensuring they were satisfied.As I got to the foot of the stairs I caught sight of Uncle Sam, a stature like his was impossible to ignore but what piqued my interest was the woman perched on his arm. I don’t know why they think they can go around being all lovey dovey and expect queenie to remain in the dark about it.I looked up the stairs to ensure the girls weren&rsqu

    I am crazy. What I was about to do felt right but the timing was off but there is never a perfect time for anything so I tried not to grip the wheel too hard. Travis had said he was home and his car in the garage confirmed it. Inside, Tyler was by the stairs stoning. He smiled at me with an ease that only those plants could provide.‘Hey bro’. He grinned‘You finally lost that last bit of shame you had left? Can’t even take your business to your room’.‘It’s a free world, besides, who would watch the door?’I shook my head and decided to hurry things up so he could concentrate on his highness.‘Where is Travis?’‘The little cub is behind at the court’.I chuckled‘You are lucky I can’t tell him you called him that’.‘Why not?’ He wiggled his brows and I waved him off before walking to the back of the house.Tr

    I moved to the left and his fisted hand missed my face once again. For yet another reason, I was thankful for my sleek and graceful nature that allowed me do crazy things like agreeing to be Jake’s sparring partner. He sent another blow towards my nose and I ducked using my leg to swipe him off his feet. He landed on the floor with a thud and just remained there, expressionless.‘This is fun and all but dude you’ve got to find another means of outlet since talking to me is a taboo’. I tried for the zillionth time to get him to open up. He shut his eyes and pulled himself up. ‘Let’s keep going’. He said and got into position. ‘Ehm, no? You might be enjoying this but my nose can only get saved so many times.‘Are you being a pussy right now, Rodriguez?’ He razzed. ‘I’m the pussy? You are the one who runs to the gym
