Emma's POV

“What happened ‘earlier’?” I asked her, shooting her the most disgusting of looks.

I apparently wasn't the only one doing something the other person would not be proud of.

“I don't owe you that information, young woman!” She looked very pissed.

I tossed her phone on the counter top and walked out.

I really could not believe what just happened. Mark was such a sweetheart, why Mike?

I heard her newly done nails clank against the counter top as she picked it up.

“A word with you, Emma.” Her tone was shaky.

“What would make you think I want to speak to you?” I shouted from my room.

I was pissed for so many reasons. At myself, and at her. That was definitely not how I envisioned the day would go. Firstly, it was at Kevin's house, then the police station, then the hospital and now, that?!

“Baby, please.” She said as she barged into my room.

“Aren't you tired of all this drama?” I asked her.

“You mean yours or mine?” She shot back at me.

    Emma's POV And like a slave, I was bundled out of what had been my home for all the eighteen years of my life. I felt sad and broken, I was low-key glad that I would never see Kevin anymore, but there was no proper closure and I could imagine how various videos would have him staring like a fool while trying to apologize. Back to me, well, life wasn't looking promising. It was a three hour drive to Mark's house in County City. It was beautiful , and I'm sure I would have appreciated it more if I was in a good mood. We left our home sometime in the evening, and got to Mark's house two hours to midnight. It was nice seeing the ladies half naked and going clubbing. Shirtless hot men driving convertibles like it was a normal thing. “Hey kiddo.” Mark broke the silence in the car. “You alright back there?” He asked, referring to me. “No. Not really.” I replied to him. “I get that.” He replied. My mom was silent all through, save for sighs at irregular intervals. “It's n

    Emma's POV College in County was all I thought it would be. Scary and intimidating. The girls wore their skirts too high, and the boys wore their trousers too low. “Hi.” I said to the first girl I saw who looked the least snobbish. She was beautiful, and looked about my height and age, with a very slim and sexy body. I struggled to keep my eyes on her face while trying to ask her for directions. Fortunately, she was also taking all the classes I was. I was super glad to see someone I had so much in common already. It made me, for once, believe in someone supernatural. “What's your name again?” She asked. I told her barely a minute ago. I was pissed, and may be a little insulted, but it wasn't enough reason to call it quits on my soon to be friend. “Emma.” I answered her. “Emma Watson.” She smiled and shook my hand for formality sake. “Well it seems like your grandad left a really big shoe to fill, discovering the DNA double helix structure.” She smiled. I never knew

    Emma's POV I walked as steadily as I could, which was not steady at all. They had already begun to make fun of me before I was even halfway. Incensed at how much I was entertaining them, I stopped in the middle of the hall, drew a deep breath, fixed my eyes on Lily's bag which was on Blue Eyes’ lap and walked straight towards it. It helped until I snatched the bag from his lap and he snatched my hand. I remember shamelessly confessing to Lily that his grip was surprisingly warm and soft. Once again, I would have loved to be held for longer, but I had a crying girl waiting for me in the bathroom. “What do you want?” I asked him. My voice was failing me already too. I wanted to smack myself for being such an idiot. I was not new to handsome boys, but this one just made me extra weak in the knees, sent extra butterflies flying in my belly. “Seems like someone is too starstruck by your handsomeness.” Jessica said, and planted a kiss on his cheek. Both of them went into anothe

    Emma's POV I screamed so loud, I allegedly fell back and fainted. He was literally the last person I wanted to see. I woke to my mom's face hovering over mine. “What the fuck is he doing here?” I asked, feeling my head for the occurrence of any bumps, as I hit it. “He's still here.” I heard his voice. I went red on the cheeks. It didn't help that I was indulging in all those dirty thoughts and imaginations before he knocked. I felt so ashamed of myself. I didn't want a Kevin situation to happen anymore, but from that day, I knew it was going to be a hard promise to keep. “Who are you?” I squinted in his direction. The light was too much for my eyes, but I could still make him out. He had changed into something really casual, and he looked like a freaking god. I was salivating like a dog who had seen bones. “I met your mom earlier. She's kinda cool. I think she'd be able to handle my dog of a father.” He said. I never saw my mom give a faster reaction. I stared wide a

    Emma's POV Time went by so fast. Mark married my mom and were living their happily ever after. She didn't even have to work anymore, Mark had us both sorted. We had even begun to talk about college. I wanted somewhere far from home. It had been over six months since we moved to the city, but Mark's house still didn't feel a lot like home. I lived like a robot, a shadow of myself. The only person who added color to my existence was Lily, who herself had many demons she was battling. Her parents divorce had dragged out to be really messy and was affecting her mentally. We got along really well, and had each other's backs. Things with Chase were still pretty much the same. He avoided me, and when he couldn't, bullied me. Lily and I had been the butt of every nasty joke, and she still refused to tell me what it was that turned Jessica, Chase and their friends against her. She was so guarded about it, everytime I mentioned it, she got angry and defensive. So I avoided stuff that

    Chase's POVJessica was, in fact, I can't describe. She was a lot of things to me. We were just mutually fucked kids, and we connected through that. My dad was involved in stupid shit that claimed my mom's life. Her parents raised to be a supermodel, attractive enough for NBA players and other footballers. We had been attending the same school since I was ten. At first, we started off as friends. Then she hit puberty before me and started hooking up with boys, we still remained friends as most of the guys were quite out of my league. Then I hit puberty, and hit my growth spurt, and she remembered that I was a guy and not just a friend. We explored each other's new developing bodies in different corners in school, and nearly got busted a couple of times too. We became really close, the secrets we had with each other made us even closer. She made school a fun place, a nice getaway from my dad. And I was only too grateful for it. Her parents too didn't care about her visitors,

    Jessica's POV I couldn't pretend to not be irritated by how frequently Chase branched out. What we had was a somewhat open relationship. And it was fine if he wanted to hook up with someone else from time to time But his taste in girls has been so disgusting. I'm the only reason anyone ever respected him. I was a fucking model, I trained my whole life to be one. I saw the way he had been looking at Emma and Lily, and I knew there was something more to it. He just never learned. Even when we bullied them, he was either somewhat held back, or went so far that I had to stop him. Once, he went as far as citing her as an example of Social misfit in the school magazine. I enjoyed it, but somewhere within me, I felt it was an itsy bitsy little too much. I let it go either way. Slapping me in the middle of the whole school was it for me. Chase was gonna pay for the trash he did, hard. “Why would he even do that?” Monica asked me. Monica had always been one of my girls. We've been

    Emma's POV After Chase and Jessica had their big blow out, my life somewhat changed. The evil pumpkin who used to bully Lily and I suddenly turned our ally. Rumors even had it that their fight was over Lily and I. I didn't know what to make of it, but it was glaring that they were no longer on good terms, and it was a good thing, kinda. We still had Chase's attention, just not in the way we were used to. Lily was beginning to get worried, but I was long worried. He had even begun to act nice to my mom and his dad, and he was home more frequently. The upcoming senior trip seemed to take everyone's mind away from the existing beef, and I liked it. Lily and I were already talking about all the funny outfits we'd buy. We were going for DIFFERENT. She had also begun to feel bold enough to start sleeping over at times. I was happy to have someone I could really talk to in Mark's house. “So are you gonna come later this evening? Let's go shopping in that boutique you mentioned.” I

    Grayson’s POV “Hey Man.” Chase rang me up. “What's up?” “Nothing much.” I replied. “Just stuck here since Jessica and Lily have found friends in each other.” I slipped, sadly. “I kinda noticed that. What do you think is up with them though?” He asked, in the most demeaning tone I might ever have heard. “They both my women. I won't take that now, fam.” I replied, shutting him up. “What did you want to say?” I asked. He must've called for a reason. “Uhmm, well, I just got in.” He sounded really excited. I could hear the reverberation of his voice, meaning he actually was in his space. “I'm proud of you, man.” I said. I was really excited. A yard of ours to host parties and orgies, finally! “Is she there?” I asked, lowering my voice. “No, she isn't. Dummy!” He said. “She will be soon. Just thought to call you first so you don't disturb the rest of our evening.” He added, light-heartedly. “Oh. This is what you do to a broken man?” I asked, feigning hurt. “Get out

    Lily's POVIt all seemed like a dream to me. like a very big joke. Chase had the guts to do all that, in a crowd of people he'd been with almost half of the ladies. “Oh friend.” Jessica said, smiling so mischievously. “Don't call me that.” I protested. “Pardon me if I do not know what to say. One would think you'd be next to your friend now, you know, in her time of need.” She said, I knew Jessica was gloating over me, and I kinda deserved it for nursing any feelings for Chase, ever. “Jessica, this is neither the time or the place.” I said. My eyes had begun to water. I didn't see it coming, at all. I thought there was nothing more to a jewelry box than a necklace. Chase asking Emma to marry him, to me, wasn't even a remote possibility. It felt like it was gonna be a high school fling at best. “Welcome to my boat.” She said, smiling. “We certainly are not needed here. Let's row along, shall we?” She asked. We got out of the dining hall and headed straight to the cla

    Emma's POV I was obviously already being relegated to the benches at the show of my own life. I was the last person who knew Chase was gonna propose. I had a lot to say to my mom and him, but that could wait. Mark got a ton of good stuff from wherever it was they said they visited. “Oh, these are so pretty.” I said, glancing at how much stuff there was and how glittering the whole place looked. He got a big sized teddy, some scarves that looked Hawaiian, anklets, waistbeads. They must've gone somewhere funny to have brought back all that stuff. “You can have this.” I gave Patty some beachwear. I made a mental note to ask Mark how often they got breaks and when they did. Firstly, I must thank him for all that stuff. I saw some other girly things but I could open all those later. I dashed to Mark's room, with one of the scarves in hand. “Thank you so much.” I said, jumping on him. “That's a nice ring you've got there.” Mark said, deflecting. I look back on the ring,

    Chase's POVI literally was the happiest man on earth. I had just bagged Emma, and one of the most important things to me. “How do I look?” Emma asked, straightening out invisible creases. “Perfect, my love.” I replied, “Besides, they are family.” I said, laughing. “I know, I know.” She sighed. “But you're nervous?” I asked, looking at her. “Very.” She added. Emma took a deep breath and went to meet her mom. I wasn't so enthusiastic about meeting them. For all I cared, I had a done deal. “Hey mom.” Emma's voice sounded strained. Her mom pulled her in and it seemed like a bear hug. I could understand. They had been gone for two months. Two freaking months that might be the genesis of my emergence. My dad didn't even spare me a second look. I laughed deep within me, knowing that he knew I had become a player in his game. Emma's mom took her left hand and admired the ring, during which Emma turned completely red. I busied myself enjoying the spectacle cause th

    Emma's POVI heard his keys jingle, I also took it as a pause sign. We were definitely doing too much on school property. “That's too many keys.” I said, smiling. “It’s a crying shame it doesn't have the one to your heart in it.” Chase said, smiling. I laughed, Chase could be amusing when he wanted to. “We really should get back.” I suggested. Chase was hysterical, and so was I. “I can't wait to get home.” I said, shyly. and I really couldn't. I remembered the statement, ‘there's light at the end of the tunnel', maybe Chase's proposal was the end of my tunnel. “I'll see you later.” I was so excited and it was getting increasingly harder to tear myself off him. He gave me one last peck on the cheek and I sauntered back into the dining room, with my ring and necklace still on. I was hoping to see Lily, but I could not. Lunch break was almost done, so I just went back to class, where she was sitting. Lily and Jessica were alone in the hall, and I found that kinda

    Emma's POV Lily came back to sit with me, but it was too late. I watched Chase scream at everyone in his way as he approached. I was prepared to get away, but he told the girls in my way to stop me. “Please, please Emma.” We were making a show the crowd was only dying to see. I didn't like it. Chase was embarrassing me, us. “Chase, please.” I had just a little break from crying, and that was the classes. I cried through the night, I cried myself to sleep, same thing when I was preparing for school. “Emma, no. Please. Don't do this to us.” The crowd was ‘oohing’ and “awing”, I had never been in the public eye so much. It looked so similar to the Kevin issue, just that I couldn't run. “We can do this somewhere else.” I said, shaking my head. “No, Emma.” Chase replied. He was already holding my hand in his. I didn't want to embarrass him. What I didn't understand is why he was still doing this after last night. I thought running to me at the car park in the mornin

    Grayson’s POVJessica and I spent a lot more time together after the ugly incident with Rudd. I told Chase about it, and while he did seem remorseful, he didn't look surprised. “You don't look surprised.” I observed. “Are you?”He retorted. “Come on man. This is our friend here.” I said, hitting him on the chest. “Whatever.” He said, looking away. “We all knew she's had this sort of thing coming. I mean, she's been sleeping with him since forever. The school trip was their honeymoon. They've been in all sorts of clubs and hotels since then. It's on school property and so it becomes rape?” He asked. “No man.” I said, annoyed that he was thinking that way. “She was drugged.” Chase turned to me, alarmed, and then tried to mask it. “You see what I'm talking about?” I asked him, pressing the severity of it in. “And then he goes ahead to leave the school.” “I did that.” Chase said. “You drugged Jessi…?” I asked. “No, fool.” He said, slapping me playfully on the ba

    Lily's POVWhen I saw how Emma looked, I kinda did an itsy bitsy leap of joy in me. She came in a ride I had been on twice. I always loved the car. I loved it better when Chase rode me in it. “Come out.” I shoved her out. Her eyes were red and swollen and I could tell she was seeing in 360 pixels. I rummaged through the car for the rest of her stuff. Chase's signature cologne was all over the car. It was so strong. I smelled it in my sheets weeks after… I had just stumbled on something when Emma dragged me out, running out of the lot like Chase was after her. It was a jewelry box, a female jewelry box. It was so fucking fancy, frosty and shiny. The box had stone cuts that sent light straight into my eye. It was somewhere below the driver seat. I didn't think Enaa saw it yet. I took the box, but Emma chose that exact moment to drag me, so it fell on the floor somewhere. I thought I'd be able to go back to get it, but Emma needed me. “Emma, what's going on?” I had been d

    Emma's POV I cried all the way out. I want to believe I even say pity in Patty's eyes for the first in a long time, I had never been this emotionally wrecked, not even back in Starry when the whole school got my pictures. “Why? Why does this have to happen to me?!” I screamed to no one exactly. It felt like my world was caving in and there was nothing I could do about it. The next day came by fast. I didn't know how I got in my bed, cause last I closed my eyes, I was still outside. I woke up around five in the morning, it was still on my mind. I knew Chase was gonna break my heart. I already knew about all that. I was still hurting inside, scared as fuck to fall in love. Worse still with someone who'd leave me shattered. In all honesty, no one I've been with or had a crush on felt like Chase, but I still had to be cautious. I knew I was not the best at choosing others. My past speaks for itself and I didn't want history to repeat itself. I continued rolling from side to s
