Mom wasn’t home by the time Xavier and I arrived. My face was still full of frowns and I was heaving in anger.

“Hi Dad,” I said without waiting for a response. I walked in straight to the room and slammed the door behind me. I heard Xavier’s voice shortly after, Dad was asking him if I was fine and if school went okay. Guess what he said?

“School went fine and yeah, she’s fine. Should be her period mood swing or something. "

This boy was getting on my nerves and I could explode just thinking of everything he had done. I undressed and changed into a big polo. I found it in my bag and decided to put it on. Mom wasn’t back from wherever she went and I wanted to borrow her gloss. Not for today but tomorrow, I may need a gloss just in case I bumped into a guy again.

The day went fast right from school and before I knew it, it was nightfall.

“Mom, hi.”

She walked in when I was turning some fried eggs into a plate. I was starving and the pizza I had

    I figured I could use a set of shampoo that had a fresh mint scent. I picked it up and walked into the bathroom. I was going to run a quick bath because I needed to get to school early for my test. I didn't finish up my assignment last night but it was the least of my worries. While taking a hot shower, I used my hands to trace my body. I pushed open the door and walked in on Xavier. I didn't want to say anything to him, not this morning . I took a step forward and walked away but gripped my arms and stood behind me. "Emily." My heart beat increased and I swallowed hard the lump that formed in my throat. I could feel him behind me and it drove me crazy to think of how nasty we could get. I tilted my head to him. "What?" He closed the gap between us and used his fingers to tuck back the wet strands of my hair. His touch sent electricity to my body because the only thing on me was the towel. "What are you doing?" I asked the moment I saw him starin

    The whole situation got heated when James reached for Xavier's neck and gripped it tightly. I wouldn't forgive myself if anything happened to Xavier. I turned sideways peeking to see if I could figure out something but my mind was totally blank! "Answer me!" Xavier doesn't reply to him, he just stands still with a clenched fist. "You're a fucking asshole!" James flared and threw his fist at Xavier. Xavier staggered for a minute and when he got himself, he remained there. His face was blackened due to Jame's angry punches. James held him by his shirt and threw another punch at his jaw and he growled. I was screaming, asking James to stop but he wouldn't listen. All my pleas fell on deaf ears and that was harder. Xavier turned to look at me and I could read all the unsaid words in his eyes. He was guilty and wanted to take all the pain but had no idea how to save me. I had no idea what to do to save him either. He was getting punched real h

    If I had known the day was going to be a scorcher, I probably wouldn't put on clothing this thick. I sat on the bench on the basketball court, staring blankly. I couldn't help but think of everything that had happened. I looked around and everyone was busy with their stuff. Sometimes I regret not having friends, I would have been talking to someone now, telling them how shitty I feel for falling for my brother and making out with him. I heave and shove out my phone from my pockets. I stared at the screen for a while, nothing interested me. "Hey." I turned sideways to see Devin standing by my side. He's on his usual black hoodie and black trouser. He seems to love black more than anyone I have ever met. It takes a second to realize his bruises are healing too, he doesn't look that bad. "Hi," I managed to reply, not wanting to make a fool of myself by staring hard. You don't get it, Devin just has this aura, and his cologne too. Reminds me that I f

    I sat in the dining with my books. Life orientation test was coming up and I needed to get good grades 'cause I already fvcked up on the first test. I nod my head, flowing with the music being played. It was Kanye's song and I knew how much Xavier liked his songs. He was playing music when he knew I was reading but I couldn't say anything about that because I was enjoying the jam too. Mind you, I like kpop but.... Actually, the reason I didn't say anything is that I find talking to him awkward now. It feels like I have nothing to say that wouldn't sound weird. I looked at the textbook on the table and place my elbow on the table to support my cheeks. My tummy made that grumbling sound again and I rolled my eyes. I was starving but decided against going to the kitchen because it would only mean being with Xavier. He was doing the dishes and playing a song. Xavier walked out of the house and my eyes followed him till he was out of the doorway. I didn't

    I have no idea if it's Xavier's confession making me feel this emotion or if it's the reality that no matter what he thinks he feels, we can never be together. I hated the way I randomly thought of it; I could be doing just anything and I'd get hit with it, that no matter how extensively we kiss or do stuff, it wasn't in our favor. The library was the only quiet spot I could get so I walked there and gave the librarian my ID. I dropped my bags and put my phone in my pocket. I needed to think so I took a seat and pretended like I wanted to read a book. I walked to the end of the shelf and searched for a book cover that caught my interest. I stretched and picked up a book on Teenage hormones. "Duck it," I blurted. I turned from the shelve and picked a seat. I sat at the outright end and fixed my gaze on the book. I flipped through the first pages and just paused when my eyes caught the word Infatuation. I was thinking of Xavier, the definition matched what I f

    DEVIN's POV I moved past the whole class looking for Emily. I wasn't sure which class she had but I knew she was around. When I met her classmate, she said Emily may be in the library. I grimaced wondering what she was doing in the library and just went looking for her. When I got into the library, I showed the blonde librarian my ID and tilted my head, searching for Emily. I hadn't seen her since the day began and had no idea what she wore. I just hoped I found her quickly. When I took a turn to the other side of the shelf, I found her sitting at the outright end. She was staring at a book and I just paused. I walked over to where she sat and called her but she was lost in her thoughts. She was obviously thinking and not reading. "Emily." "Emily?" How could everyone else hear and totter their heads but she didn't? I touched her and called her name one last time. "Emily." She flinched at my touch but I could see her chest fall when she saw it

    When we agreed on a spot, I left the library feeling euphoric. I walked into the restroom and just turned on the tap to wash my face. Everything about Emily made me happier, she was like a drug. I washed my face for some minutes and when I was done, I turned off the tap. I straightened my stance and looked at my reflection in the mirror. I brushed my hair backward with my hands and paused when I saw a reflection that wasn't mine. What the fuck was Xavier sneaking up on me? "Look, I don't want to fight you, just get away from me." He pulled away from the wall he leaned on and stood straight. "I don't want to fight you either." He started. Pffff! That was a huge relief. "What are you doing here?" I asked the moment I turned to meet him. "I just came to talk." What the hell did Xavier want to talk about? It obviously had to do with Emily. I knew he saw us the other day at the basketball court but I didn't do anything. Odd, right?

    I've been battling insomnia for some days. It just makes me stay up all night doing nothing. Sometimes I watch a movie to keep myself busy, play games, or like last night, stalk Emily. I stayed on my bed with my phone in my hands. I was trying to get Emily's social media accounts. I wanted to talk to her and tell her what happened earlier was fine and I wasn't mad but I had no way to contact her. I tried using her real name to search her up on Instagram but she didn't seem to have an account or she just didn't use her real name. When I finally found an account with her name, it had no pictures of her. I growled at the effortless effort and hurled my phone away. The only way to see her pictures was to check Gabby's account. She made fun of her a lot and must have uploaded her picture. I got dressed for school and clutched my bag. I headed outside and put on my hood over my head. The purpose of the hood was to keep your head warm and shit but for me, it was

    I turned to Mom who was wiping her eyes. She had tears welled in them and Dad just hugged her. "It's over," he told her. "You don't have to worry anymore.""It just feels so unreal. I can't believe everything is fine now.""Me too."I honestly couldn't believe it. It was just too good to be true and I didn't know how to feel about it.She gave me a nod and pulled me into a hug. I remained there for a while before Dad asked us to get ready to leave. We strode happily to where the car was parked.We got home and I walked to my room it felt good having a separate room, I liked how it felt. I heard a scream and rushed out to see what was happening."Mom?""Emily! Xavier just got admission into a college in the Los Angeles!"My jaw dropped in excitement and I turned to Xavier. It was good news but Xavier didn't look happy. I turned my gaze to him and my eyes met his. He was staring blankly at me."What's wrong?" I asked him. "This is good news, Xavier.""I guess."His reply was cold and his

    ONE MONTH LATER.The cold wind and fresh aura made me smile. I stood beside James watching his jet. Apparently, he was getting ready to leave and I didn't know how to feel about it.It was just the two of us standing there and there was silence. I wish I could hear everything he was thinking of. I felt the sensation and I knew more than ever that I was going to miss James.His lips formed a small smile like he heard what I was thinking and I just twitched my lips. I needed to enjoy the moment because it may be the last time I'd see him. I also knew his ailment had given him a short period of time to live and I really felt bad.I had no idea why I was feeling all those emotions at that point. There was this strong urge to hug him and just remain in his hugs. I remembered how welcoming and warm his arms were but I stopped myself. I didn't have to be overly emotional.I was trying hard not to think about James dying but I couldn't help it and before I knew it, a sob escaped my mouth. Tea

    I opened my eyes and the first thing I saw was Xavier. He was staring at me with a small smile tugged on his lips. I got scared at first but the feeling faded and I felt okay."Why are you staring at me?" I asked with a frown."Why didn't you report James to the cops?"I knew he was going to ask that, I just didn't think it was going to be by 3 fucking a.m."I can't.""Why?""I can't even though I want to kill him myself. I know everything, I know the shitty things you did, I know you sold drugs."He twitched his like and continued looking at me. "Do you still sell drugs or do you deliver them in your sleep?"I grabbed the blanket and placed it on my body, turning to the other side to sleep."I need to sleep, leave me alone."He scoffed and I rolled my eyes. "I hate you."I heard him giggle, "I love you too," he responded.* * * *The door slamming open made me open my eyes. It was morning but I was hoping I could sleep a little longer."Emily, get up."Mom grabbed my hands before I c

    The moment Mom asked if I saw James, my chest heaved. "No," I replied and twitched my lips. I didn't want to keep talking about him because of the emotions I felt whenever I thought of him."Emily."We turned and it was Xavier. I ran to him immediately and threw my hands around him. He hugged me back, even tighter. I couldn't believe I missed Xavier this much, it was hurting."I'm so sorry," he said as he hugged me. No one else was going to understand, not even Mom. "It's not your fault," she told him."The police found someone involved."My heart raced faster, I felt bad for James. He was going to die and I didn't want him to die in jail."Hi, excuse me." The doctor walked into us and turned to Mom. "There's been no form of abuse, she's fine.""She's fine?""Yes, she is," The doctor confirmed and gave a friendly smile.Mom gave a nod and appreciated him. She stood up from the chair and looked at me. "I need to go and feed Devin, no one is coming for him."I gave a nod, I understood h

    I tried to open my eyes and the sunlight hurts them. I tried to figure out what was happening and I realized I was in someone's arm.I freed my eyes again and realized it was James and he was taking me out of the enclosed room. At that point I felt an adrenaline rush in me.He dropped me down and I felt hot tears roll down my eyes, I couldn't believe it. I hugged him right without thinking and cried into his arms.He returned the hug and just remained calm, watching me. I had no idea why I was crying and hugging him but I needed the hug.When I pulled away from his hug, he looked at me and smiled faintly. "You can do what you want now. Call the cops and tell them I rescued you from the teenagers who kidnapped you."Was he asking me to go?"Just go down the road, you'll figure your way. I'll have someone follow you from a distance just so you arrive home safely.""There's no camera Emily, I have my men dismount them so, the choice is yours. I love you."With that, he turned and entered

    EMILY'S POVEvery minute I stayed locked in here makes me want to throw up. It feels like I’ve been kidnapped for years, I already lost count of days but I knew it was already weeks. My head split in pain as I tried to recall the incident. I was arguing with Xavier when I got pushed into a moving van. The details of the kidnap were blurry and I couldn’t remember much.I still have no idea how I survived the first day ‘cause panic attacks made me nauseated and disorganized. Their faces all scared life in me, I thought they were going to kill me because of how fierce they looked. The highest punishment I got for kicking one of the guy’s balls was a hard slap.It was hard enough to redden my face but not kill me, I wondered why they were being so careful with me till I overheard their discussion saying they sold me to a rich man and he didn’t want me bruised.I threw up hearing it and the rest turned out to be blurry vision and a bad headache. When I opened my eyes, I found myself in a di

    I swallowed the lump that formed in my throat the moment she looked at me. I looked at Devin and he was growling like he was going to pass out.She lowered her stance to him and cleaned him up without saying anything. You would never believe they knew themselves before now. I didn't care though, I just wanted to get away and that was my concern.When she was done cleaning his wounds, she turned the first aid box to where I was and used a wipe to clean off the surface of the bruises I sustained.I flinched when her hands touched my face and the iodine dropped on my injury."Fuck."She didn't apologize or say a thing. She just turned her box away when she was done. Devin and I remained silent for a while before we heard footsteps and turned our heads in the direction if the door. She had returned with two plates of food. She dropped it in front of us with bottles of water and latched the door.Devin hungrily grabbed the plate and spooned rice into his mouth. I looked at him wondering if

    My eyes glinted open and I felt a sharp pain. I could feel the chill from the breeze cutting straight through my damp body.I felt a metallic taste in my mouth, I turned and realized where I was. I was in a room with no ventilation. My face was bruised and I could feel the dried blood clot on my body. I tied to move but realized my hands were still tied to the pole and I couldn't move.My eyes turned to the growling sound and I saw the hefty man who injected Devin beating him up. He was growling as the punches landed on his body.On the other side of the room, a bloodied man was laying on the floor. Devin was getting beaten for doing that to the man. Couldn't he just wait till we realized where the fuck we were?I scoffed and struggled to break free but the ropes holding my hands together had a grip hold. I paused after several trials and just looked at Devin who looked like he was about to die. He needed to get treated because his wounds were susceptible and they looked like it was g

  • Devin Or Xavier    Chapter 120

    I walked out of the sitting room glad the police didn't want to interrogate me yet. They probably felt he was saying all that because he was accused and it made me feel a rush of relief.I opened the door to my bedroom and looked around. The mess I made on Emily's bed was still there and I didn't have the energy to clean up yet. I knew she wasn't going to yell at me for messing up her bed because she wasn't there and it hurt me to think of her absence.I turned my face away and walked to my bed. I sat on my bed and fell on my back. I looked at the ceiling, thinking of nothing but how to sneak out of the house.Devin had a plan he says we need to see and talk about. I wondered if he had other motives in mind when he sent his invitation but I was blank. I could ask him to tell me the plan over the phone but he would refuse and say it had to be a physical meeting."Fucking hell," I scoffed in an undertone and turned to the other side of the bed. It was only 8 pm and I could get some slee
