“You’re still upset with me?” Finally, we got back to our apartment.
She dropped her bag on the couch, her books on the coffee table before she took a seat. Her silence was killing me. I wanted to fix it before this night ended.
“Lee, you have to talk to me.” I sat down on the rug, took off her socks. She didn’t resist.
“I’m just tired.”
“Did anyone bother you while I was gone?”
“Besides those fame-hungry bee-tches? No. I was bombarded by students when I arrived. What’s the big deal?”
I massaged her foot. “It’s a big deal when you went up against Adrian.”
She looked at me. “Massaging my foot, really? That’s how you make up to me after you left me alone?”
“No, Lee.” I shook my head. “I was upset—”
“You mean mad,” she corrected me. “Very mad. Scary mad.”
I shook my head again. “I wasn’t mad at you. It just caught me by surprise that you looked so little of me.”

PERCIE I couldn’t tear my gaze away from her as she sat across me in the living room. She was biting her lip as she was reading her book, then taking notes. The pink gloss on her lips accentuated the pink glow on her face. Lexie was scrolling on her phone, then typing whatever made her busy to divert her anger from me. I should be doing the same, but I’d rather take my time admiring the close to perfect of a girlfriend of mine. Her simple sleeveless pink blouse didn’t hide her round tits, and her high waist white shorts didn’t help me get off from hard-on as she showed a lot of skin on her thighs and toned legs. “Just go and make out already.” I could feel Lexie rolling her eyes. Hailey’s eyes met mine. Her smokey eyeshadow made her more astonishing. She’s just a real deal. Smart. Hot as fuck. Fascinating. A total package. “What?” “Your boyfriend has b

PERCIE “So, how did it go?” Hailey asked over the phone. I’d been watching her window from the street where I parked my car. The lights were still on. “You should have seen their faces.” I was not proud of what I did, of how I left. Everything didn’t go as I planned, the moment my mother did not even show a little remorse to me. “It didn’t go well, I see.” There was sadness in the tone of her voice. I sighed. “I take that as a yes.” “Can I see you?” “Percie—” “All you have to do is walk out of your house, Lee. I wanna see you.” I wanted to see her. I wanted to get rid of this unsettling emotion in the pit of my stomach. I knew only Hailey could help me. “Wait a sec.” She must be studying. The surprise in her voice made my heart flutter. Then her shadow appeared on the curtain of her room. “You’re here.” “Yup. Can I come? Or up to you, you come down. I just wanna talk to you.” I

PERCIE “So, dear, your dad is a policeman?” Grandpa started. As if he didn’t know already. The baked salmon was delicious, and it looked like Hailey was enjoying the dinner as well. “Leave the girl to enjoy her meal,” Grandma said. “How’s the salmon, dear?” “It’s really good, Grandma. Thanks for inviting me over.” Hailey smiled at her. “And yes, my dad is a cop. That’s how he met Percie.” “I’ve been telling Percie to bring you over, but you know my boy.” Hailey’s gaze met mine. “I understand. I’m not really good at meeting people. Percie is the first guy to invite me to meet his family.” “Aren’t you lucky, son?” I ignored Grandpa’s remark. Instead, I shoved a slice of asparagus in my mouth. The proud smile on Grandma spread across her face. “He never brought any girls home, Hailey. I thought my grandson had the plan to join a convent of St. Celibacy.” Hailey laughed and shut when she reali

PERCIE “You don’t have a plan to get drunk, do you?” Grandma added before I walked out of the library. “No promises,” I sang. “Percie?” “I said no promises.” I went back to Hailey. She was already sitting on the ottoman. One thing I noticed was the lit candles in every corner of the place. “Hey, you’re back. Are we gonna sleep in your car?” I smiled. “Not tonight. How did these candles get here?” “I don’t know. One of the staff, her name is Donna. She just started lighting candles. The smell is incredible. I thought this is your idea.” “Nope, but I’ll thank her and Grands later.” I uncorked the wine, poured two glasses, and I offered a glass to Hailey. I sat beside her and wrapped my arm around her. I raised my glass. “Happy two months, Lee.” She looked beyond shock as she stared at me. I leaned over to kiss her lips. “Happy two months.” She sipped her wine. “Don’t

PERCIE After my confession last night, it was the space between us as I started driving away from her was the hardest thing I had to endure. She waved goodbye one more time before she walked towards the door of her parents’ house. My phone buzzed as I pulled to the main road. It was a call from Remy. I suddenly remember what Grandpa told me before Hailey and I left. “Sup?” “Are you up to watch a game?” “Where?” “Playground.” “It’s today?” “Yeah. Where the hell have you been?” “I went to see Grands.” “Oh, I see.” “Are you coming?” “Be there in ten.” I steered the car to the campus road.” “Is Hailey coming?” “Nope. I just sent her home. Why?” “Thought the girls are gonna join.” A small smile curved up my lips. “You mean if Queen Victoria is joining? Why don’t you just call or chat with her? Or however, you guys communicate t

PERCIE “Remy!” I shouted as I rushed towards the wrecked car. Terror closed around my throat as I watched the aftermath, broken glasses, smoked, crumpled metal. I was suddenly brought back to that accident, making me fall to the ground. Shell-shocked, I felt my life was sucked out of me. Everything blurred around me. Rushes pushed through me here in there, yet I was still kneeling on the ground as my gaze fixed to Remy. I couldn’t take it anymore. I couldn’t handle another loss.Jesus, not again. “Percie! Percie!” Someone was nudging me, but I couldn’t respond. I couldn’t move. It felt like I would fall apart if I did. “Percie, come back to me, please? Come back to me.” That voice was so familiar, that touch, those eyes. “Percie, please?” Hailey.My emotions wreaked havoc in my heart. “You need to get up.” “Get up?” I asked in confu

HAILEY There were thousands of scenarios swirling in my brain. That thought made my head spun even more. I was pacing in the kitchen, waiting for the coffee to brew. In the living room, it felt like no one was there—so silent. We were all in deep shock. I didn’t even get enough sleep. I kept on turning in bed, constantly checking my phone on the nightstand. Still, I got nothing. It was unnerving. Victoria was still a little bit shaken. She may deny the fact that she didn’t give a crap about Remy, but behind her brave and bold facade, I knew she cared about him more than she’d like to admit. I brought cups of coffee to the living room. Still, nobody moved. Everyone was in their sad positions. If there was no incident like this, we couldn’t hear each other in the living room with our spirited conversations—Lexie flirting with Megan while Victoria was stalking Remy’s social media accounts before sharing the latest updat

PERCIE Call me coward, an idiot, but after watching Remy’s lifeless body, fighting for his life for the choice he made, I couldn’t take it anymore. I had to go away. Since the doctor said that Remy would pull it through, I was beyond relieved that I didn’t have to carry the guilt with me for the rest of my life. It hurt as fuck as I walked out of his room while he was still unconscious. I just wished I could say something to him before I left, but on the other thought, it would just make it difficult for me. When someone said to me right now that everything happened for a reason, I already punched him in the face. If the reason for losing Emma was finding Remy, it was bullshit—a fucking cruel twist of fate. Why the fuck they both had to suffer? Why did I have to watch them suffer? It felt like a deja vu, all over again. I couldn’t think about them without that horrible image of Emma and Remy lying in the hospital bed. “Percie?” I

Broken Bad Boy Epilogue
HAILEY Six years later… It was Sunday morning, and Percie just came back from his run. It was a part of my daily routine to wake up early since we got married almost three years ago, just right after I graduated from college. “Baby, you came back early.” I kissed him on his lips. He was sweating everywhere. I gave him a towel. “And please, don’t wake them up until Grands and your parents arrive. Mom and Dad are on their way.” “I missed you as soon as left the house.” He smiled, wiping off the sweat on his forehead. I rolled my eyes. “I thought after what we did last night, you won’t miss me until you go on your business trip on Monday.” I suddenly remembered how we made love last night. He never ceased to amaze me. I could guarantee the saying rock your world was so real. He was still hot in bed. The sex was always amazing even if we’d been together as a couple for a

HAILEY Percie’s parents visit turned into a small party. His grandparents, my family, friends, and even Remy came over. It was just a click on Percie’s phone everyone we cared about came over. Mrs. Matthews had been great to me. She squeezed me into a hug when she saw me wearing her son’s engagement ring. She held my hand and looked closely at the ring on my finger. “This is so beautiful.” She smiled. “Beautiful for a beautiful young woman. Please, don’t break my son’s heart.” “Thank you, and I have no intention to.” I did a quick glance at my man chatting with Remy and his father at the corner of the living room.” “Now, I can rest. Percie has just been through a lot to have another heartbreak, but I know he’s in good hands. Thank you, dear.” She kissed me on my cheek. Percie saw us, and he was smiling at me. When his mom left me in the kitchen, I tried my best not to roll my eyes when Victoria, Lexie, and

PERCIE The feel of her tight, warm wet folds around my stiff cock made me moan in pleasure. “Fuck yes.” I looked at her, stark naked, dark eyes staring back at me. My hips flexed of their own will, sending my hard cock even deeper into her heat. My hand encircled around her slender waist, pulling my cock out slowly, and then she began to slide it slowly in, rolling her lips teasingly. She bit the bottom of her lip to stifle her moan. She failed anyway. I cupped her full round tits with my hands and sat up to suck her small bud nipple into my mouth, circling with my tongue. The sound of her moan was like music to my ears. “Percie.” She arched into my mouth, asking for more. I tugged and bit her nipple with my teeth, causing her to gasp. I did it again, sucking alternately. Something about how she called my name in pleasure made me hungrier. I flipped her over on her back. She laid there with her big dark eyes, staring back at me,

PERCIE “Hey.” I moistened my lips. I wanted to say something—anything, but words wouldn’t come out. “Hi.” Surprised, she swallowed. Her gaze dropped to the box in my hand, then glanced back at me. I waited for her to start, but it didn’t come. “Oh, uh.” I looked at the box. “This is not for you.” I went silent, stunned. Then something in her expression caused me excruciating pain. Finally, it came to my senses. “I mean, this is not mine. I mean, it’s mine now. It’s from Emma.” I stopped. I screwed big time. “This is one of a few things she left for me.” “I understand. You don’t have to explain,” she interrupted, eyes glittering. “Anyway, I just come here to take my things.” “What do you mean?” I stalked her to the living room. “Victoria is looking for a roommate. As we agreed before, I’ll leave as soon as I find a new roommate.” “Don’t leave, please?” My voice choked with raw emotions.

PERCIE Hailey was true to her words in giving me the space I needed. She ignored me for the whole month. She even temporarily crashed at Victoria’s apartment. We rarely saw if not on the campus, but she barely looked at me. Her friends were still upset with me—they said, for breaking Hailey’s heart. Lexie was still giving me the cold shoulder. I thought I deserved it all. I was invited to Ward’s family dinner, and that was the most awkward dinner I’d ever had. Her words were taunting. The pain was hard to bear. As soon as it ended, I left right away and drowned myself in alcohol. I visited Remy in rehab as frequently as I could. “Shouldn’t you be with Hailey, groveling? You know, there’s a Filipino culture when courting a girl. The man plays guitar outside the house and sings for her. Why don’t you try it? It might work.” I glared at him. “Just get better, asshole.” “What do you think I’m doing? It’s not that I can threa

PERCIE How the hell did she find me? I drew in a long shuddering breath as I opened the door. I was wide awake, wincing in pain as Grandma kept on hitting me with her clutch. “Ow! What the hell?” I managed to block her with my arms. “What are you doing? Stop it!” She didn’t stop. “I won’t stop until I get the answer on what the hell are you doing here?” I stared at her in disbelief. Then I suddenly realized what she meant. I swallowed the lump in my throat. “Good to see you too, Grandma.” I sat on the edge of the bed. “You will stand up and drive me to your apartment. I paid a hefty amount not for you to just desert it because you’re stupid again. You will come here and stay with your mom and dad on weekends. Now get up, or I will let my driver drag you out of the house.” I remembered Grandma like this when I stayed with them before visited Emma for the first time. She was wearing the same an

PERCIEI snatched another sandwich on the plate and apple on the fruit basket before I dashed out of the kitchen.“Finish your breakfast, Percie!” Mom called out.“Gonna be late!”“You need to call your Grandpa, Percie.” Mom followed me outside the house.My car was already in the driveway. Mom’s driver gave me my car key. “I will. Thanks, Elliot.”“Percival!” Mom’s annoying voice made me stop.I groaned. “Fine. I’m gonna be late for my class.”“You’re coming home tonight, right?” I watched her eyes light up with hope.“Sure. Can I go now?”“Drive safe, honey.”I looked at her again. I had not heard the word honey in a long time. I still felt cynical about a sudden change of heart. At this moment, I needed them and a room to stay.My

PERCIE I had not shed a tear, which honestly made things worse. I stared at the house in front of me. It was a miracle how I got in here unscathed. And I didn’t know how I was still standing. The main door swung open, revealing my dad. His walk forward felt like an eternity before he reached closer to me. “You can shove anything into my face all you want. I don’t give a fuck. I wanna stay. You can call the cops and let them drag me out, but I will still come back. I have nowhere to go right now where no one will find me. This is the last place they’re gonna look for me.” I wiped my face. His eyes widened. “Are you in some kind of trouble?” “With the authority? Not that I know of. Can I come in?” He nodded quickly. “Did you bring something with you?” “No.” Dad guided me inside and locked the door behind me. “Can you ask your driver to keep my car in your garage?” “Of course.” He took the key from m
