“Just hurry and eat up, honey.” Mom said as I came dashing towards the kitchen. Grabbing a piece of bread I took a huge chunk of it. “I’ll be late today because I’ve got some clients to handle.” She said, as she picked up her bag from the sofa. I hummed. Giving me a kiss on the forehead she rushed out after saying her goodbyes.“Will you ever stay?” My voice echoed in the house which was now empty.We lived in a two story house which was small but homely. Shaking my head, I grabbed my backpack, car keys and phone and rushed towards the door.Today was the first day of the senior year. Was I nervous? No.Zooming through the empty roads of the neighborhood in my Audi Q5, I passed through the roads where the richest people lived. Those houses more like mansions were beautiful. Worth drooling.Humming the song that played in my car I stopped infront of the huge brown entrance, door. Honking a few times, I waited.Soon my bestfriend came running out and took a seat next to me, her strawber

A week had passed since the incident, that happened with the girl in the hallway.And honestly I was pissed. Pissed at the people who had uploaded the videos of me tormenting the poor girl, it showed that I was the bad one. And I was proud. Proud to be the one too teach her a lesson.Poor girl, my ass.But right now I wanted to get away from the weird fruity smell that invaded my nose. “Can you be quick with whatever you have to say?” I impatiently asked the man who sat on the comfy leather seat infront of me, only the big oak table separating us.“Miss Celestina Vidal, you cant keep doing this, we may expel you this time.” The man in the suit, also known as Julian Romero the headmaster said whilst fixing his expensive blue checkered tie. “Oh please, I didn’t even do anything.” I scoffed, as I leaned back on the wooden chair which had been giving me aches from the past few minutes.“This time you have not only bullied that girl but also told her too kill herself.

To be honest the ongoing lecture was shitty just like the teacher.“Proceed to page 5.” She spoke, her long ankle length skirt looked like she was a grandma even though she was just in her mid thirties. Freak, I must say.“Psst.” The guy from behind me spoke. Ignoring, I kept my focus on the stupid book. “Psst, listen.” Shrugging him off once again, I kept my cool. He tapped his pen on my shoulder, “sexy just listen.”Turning around I saw Tyler Jones. The typical cliché boy who slept with every single girl. “The fuck is your problem?” I lowly hissed. “Give me a pen.”Scowling at him, I gave him a middle finger and turned towards the teacher.Her front was towards the board, she kept on writing and spoke at the same time, something about chemicals. “When you react nitric acid with calcium hydroxide it forms a compound called calcium nitrate and water. This reaction is a redox reaction and can be explosive at times.”“Pen, pen, pen.” He chanted like a pre-school kid. “Shut up Jones.” I

“Are you sure you don’t wanna join the cheer club?” Stacy asked.We all were seated with our food on the trays. “I don't know Stac, I have actually no idea.” I sighed. She took a sip of her cranberry juice, her eyes lingering at my face with confusion, “you were there it in the last year, why not now?"How could I tell her that I quitted cheer practice just too get in the skating club.“I’ll give it a thought.” I said making her smile.Flora was still nowhere seen, probably out there with that jerk, Nick.“Why are they so hot?” Ava questioned, resting her chin on her palms. “Who?” Marcus asked.“Them.” She pointed out to the table in the far corner towards the window. Marcus turned around. His face immediately turned into a frown. “The nerds?"“Yes, they all look so yummy.” She said dreamingly. He looked back at us with his frown deepened. “What’s with that look, Marcus?” I asked him. “They are fucking cheaters.”“How so?” I questioned. My eyes drifted at there table. One of the boy

Have you ever experienced that moment when you want to bash someone's head so hard until they bleed? Yeah that's how I felt right now.Looking at my Mathematics teacher, he wore a disappointed expression. “Look Celestina, I would be very straightforward with you, if you wont get good grades than you would never graduate.”Anything but a disappointed expression. I fucking hate it. It makes me feel low.I scoffed. “What do you want me too than?"“I suggest you too study. If you cant, than we can get you a tutor. We have excellent students who are tutoring for extra credit hours but you’ll have too figure out which one suits you better ” He said, making me roll my eyes in response. “No thankyou, I don't want any of your pathetic help.”“Celestina I suggest you too co-operate with me and also fix your manners. If you cant than I have no choice but too call your mother for this issue.” He ended his sentence. I was fucking seething. How dare he drag mom into this. It’s my fucking life not h

Sitting in the garden with a book in my hand and a pair of airpods plugged in my ears was the best combination.Hometown smile by Bahjat bursting in my ears.My eyes kept on scanning the lines until it was dark enough to go back inside. Lifting myself off the swing, I hurriedly went inside towards the kitchen.Skipping through some cupboards, I came across my fathers favorite cupboard.He used to lock his food in it since me and my mother always liked to steal and than devour it. He had the best taste in everything. His cooking was just extra. Sighing I brushed past it. Sadness washing over my features once again.Grabbing a pack of Doritos and a glass of cranberry juice, I strided back to my room. I sat down on the overused bed making myself comfortable in it. Placing my laptop on my lap, I played an episode of Stranger Things. If you haven’t watched that show than you live under a rock, my friends. Munching on my Doritos I started to watch it. Hours later, I had finished the whole

A week had passed in a blur. In which either I was on the bed or I was in the bathroom with my head in the toilet. Yuck. Yeah you guessed it right, I was throwing up everything I was eating. I felt great. My mother hadn’t come back home, she just texted me saying that she was on a business trip with the client. Just like always she wasn't there to treat my disease.Sighing, I got off from my car and leaned against it for a minute, my head still spinning from all the vomiting. I hadn’t ate much since my stomach was contracting painfully from inside but I had to endure it. Endure all of it just like before. Before I could walk, a pair of arms engulfed me in a tight hug making me flinch hard. They immediately retracted their arms and stood infront of me. “I’m sorry!" I looked at the intruder and saw Flora standing with a frown on her face. “Girl, you look horrible.” She fake gagged. “I know that already.” I sighed and grabbed my backpack from the passenger seat. “Rough weekend?"We bot

“This project will consist of partners. I’ll be assigning the partner you’ll work with and I don't want any complaints, am I understood?” The teacher also known as Henry addressed to the class. A chorus of yes’s were heard.I took a side glance at Zachariah who was busy writing something on his notebook. He looked extra handsome today. He wore a pair of beige dress-pants and a white collared shirt which was folded up to his elbows. A silver chain hanging from his neck. Three rings rested on both of his hands and a black beaded charm bracelet.Are nerds that hot?His face looked so innocent. The glasses rested on the bridge of his nose. His soft pink lips were turned into a pout. Extra delicious. His hair was messily disheveled, draped on his forehead and eyes.Illegal.“Anna and Tyler,”“Cristiano and West,”The teacher called out names. Groans were heard in the room but my eyes were fixed on something special. And that special was him. Am I getting obsessed? Yes.“Linda and Bella,”

Ten painful minutes.It had been ten minutes since I was sitting here in Mr. Diaz's office and him staring at me like a hawk.My lips parted, attempting to start a conversation between us but he was faster than me. "Sorry to call you here on a short notice but I have been wanting to talk to you alone, ever since I saw you earlier."I clammed my fingers around each other and I nodded, ever so slightly, replying, "what did you want to talk about?"His stare turned into the slightest glare, as he leaned back on the couch."I'll not beat around the bush, so let me ask you this straight, do you have a thing for Zachariah?"My breath immediately hitched and my a line of shiver ran down my spine, there and then.Did I have a thing for him? Yes. Maybe, even greater than the feeling of infatuation, but would I tell him---his dad? Simply, no. I just couldn't, not even to Emilia.I was about to deny, but he casually exclaimed, as if he knew what I was about to to do. "Before you reply, think wis

I stared at the wall.Stared and just stared.Well, what was I supposed to do? After he left me all hot and bothered.And to put a cherry on top, that fucker smirked, smirked!"Are you gonna sulk like an idiot?"My head whipped towards Flora who had a glass of red juice in her hand as she leaned against the wall with a lazy smile adorning her face.I gave her a quick scan over. She was now wearing the same dress, in which we had entered before."Party's over?"She hummed, coming inside, with my dress in her other hand.Why didn't I notice it before? "Change and be downstairs. Apparently everyone decided to watch a movie." She mumbled, throwing the dress and my pantie at me which I swiftly caught.I gave her a blank nod, not before asking, "won't you ask what happened?""Whenever you're ready because I'm hoping it to be extra juicy." She gave out a light chuckle and in return I rolled my eyes. "Horny fuck."She laughed out again and walked out, closing the door behind her.My lungs ex

The world around me felt insanely hazy.Black, and turned off.And honestly I did prefer it that way, after everything that took place in my life.It was beyond just the universe, and above the horizon."Celestina, open your eyes."My body slightly stirred up at the sound entering in my ears. "Open up." The voice again demanded yet again near my face and at the very same time it felt so far away from my reach."Why isn't she waking up?" The light airy whispered, providing me a sense of comfort.The other didn't speak, however they did touch my forehead and this seemed to clear the haze and finally my eyes peeled open.The first thing my eyes met, were the blueish green orbs I loved more than anything in this goddamn universe."Oh thankgod. Tina, you fucking scared us."I broke off the eye contact, and tilted my head sideways to see a frightened Flora, kneeling next to my body."Chill, Lora."She gasped and gave me her infamous glare. "Chill? If it weren't for Zachariah, you'd be out o

Three words; I hate attention.Most importantly, from those who looked like they'll punch each other dry."You, good?" Nathaniel sat beside me on the pool floor, with his legs dipped in like I had.My lungs expanded and I heaved in a deep sigh, before whispering, "why are they staring at me?"Nathaniel's brows scrunched as his line of sight followed mine towards the pool. Ryder, Noah, Zachariah were on one side while Alexander, Caleb, Ares and Apollo on the opposite. Funny, I had two Ares in my life---one that had kidnapped me, then saved me with his own hands and the other which was a jokester and a swimmer.The world is truly funny, no?"Just staring? I thought, they are glaring." Flora said, tilting her head up towards me.She was already in the pool taking in the coldness of it."Aren't you coming?" Apollo questioned for the fifth time.I shake my head. "No, not in a mood.""Common, don't be such a mood killer, pretty princess." Ares spoke from beside him, only for me to roll my e

"So how do you like party so far?""Pretty good, and specially love the tenders you grilled."Emilia let out a soft laugh, as she massaged a thick layer of sunscreen on her arms. "Oh darling, it wasn't me, it was Nathan, Zach and Roberto."My eyes scrunched at the last name and she instantly mumbled Zachariah's dad."Hold on! The infamous Roberto Diaz is your husband?!" Flora screeched almost too loudly, making her laugh yet once again. "Yeah the poor wife of his is me.""No wonder I felt your name a bit familiar." She hummed to herself and I found myself getting confused. "Is he that famous?"Flora nodded at my question. "Girl, the news has said he runs the biggest chains of hotels and restaurants. And not to forget he has this company, called D.Co, news--this is one of the largest operating systems here in U.S and all over Europe."D.Co, where did I hear this word again?"And they are like billionaires."Emilia continued to apply, with a small smile. "Money doesn't buy everything Fl

"Do I look okay?"Flora gives me prolonged stare. "If you say it once again, I'll fucking bash your head."I sheepishly smiled."Don't give me that. You already know you look hot, so why being self-conscious?"I shrug and lean backwards.The past fifteen minutes, we were sitting idly in the parking lot with several other expensive cars lingering beside us. If one thing I would comment on this family---it was, hella luxurious.And to put a cherry on top, we were more than half an hour late. Zachariah even called me a few times which I ignored to the fullest."It's about Scarlett, yes?"I close my eyes for a bare moment before opening them once again."Nailed it. But why?""I don't know...The way he looks at her is different from the way he looks at me."Flora sighs, giving me one of her best glares she could muster. "Babe, you should be happy that the way he looks at you is different." My eyebrows scrunch and she further elaborates, giving me her full attention. "Remember I told you,

He was here a moment ago, kissing me.I let out a strangled breath as I inch up, elevating myself with the help of my elbows."Now tell me, why were you crying?" He sat on the chair with his one leg draped over the other and his arms crossed over his chest.I sit, lowering my skirt to cover however my hand abruptly halt when he growled under his breath, daring me no. My gaze moved towards him and to my surprise I found him starring at me.I shrug and disobeyed him, hiding away the red from his stare, getting a grunt. "That was just not nothing, Celestina. No one cries like that.""Were you watching me?" I questioned instead.He quirks his brow in return.I heave a deep sigh and lean back on my hands, tilting my head up towards the ceiling. "You can go back to your 'i'm ignoring you' expression, it was much better."He scoffs. "Trust me, it was. Scar was begging me to come back to my original self and for some reason it cuts the tension you were giving me."I roll my eyes at the mentio

"Is he ignoring you?"My brow rose and I simply gave Flora a half hearted shrug. "Am I supposed to know?""Shouldn't you?" She interlinked her arm with me.I once again shrug. As we both walked side by side towards the ground to attend our free period, my mind took me back to the day after we had done our shopping. It had been three days? Or could be more, since I barely saw him afterwards. Either he wasn't present or either he perfectly ignoring me. Whatever it was, it was messing with my brains.Oh and did I forget to mention? My mum wasn't a tad bit surprised when I told her I boxed to get the frustration out of me and that those men were the ones who messed with me and my friend's club, infact her chest had swelled with pride.Weird? I know right."Let's grab a ball or something?" She asked and I shook my head in a no. "Maybe you could go and play, I'll just sit for a while."She gave me a quick side glance. "And you think I'll leave you all alo---""Flora, our practice!" Two girl

Hot, fucking hot.Almost like a flowing lava that could burn your flesh.My eyes remained fixed on his, as I pressed the intercom and mumbled the burning sentence. "Can you bring a sheer lace one, in the color, red?"If he was going to play the game, then why would I fucking back down?The specs of blue moons in his eyes were glimmering with an emotion I couldn't put my finger on. The white light brought the rough lines of his face to life and for once he looked extra sexy---not that he didn't look everyday but today mine was an exception.I liked the way he was pressed against me. The softness of my body molding against the hard rigids of his. It felt nice...good.Zachariah stared deeply into my eyes for a brief moment. And then he tilts his head backwards. "Aren't you a freaky one?" He whispers against the soft silence.My finger leaves the intercom. The same hand travelled up his chest in the slowest way possible. "And you are not? Boyfie. Others might not know but you are hiding s
