Hating the Billionaire Heir Chapter Nine
It's Friday evening now and Cassie has not relented on pestering me about details of my "date" with Roman. Although I've told her countless times that there's nothing of that sort going on she insists and believes I'm holding out on her. She even recruited Anna into this obsession and now I'm getting pestered on all sides. Last night she tried to convince me to go to our school basketball team's first game of the season which was to be held Friday afternoon, her major point to convince me was that Roman was going to be playing, unknowingly to her that was the number one deterring reason, followed by the fact that I know nothing about basketball and don't derive any joy watching the sport. Today, our team won the match by a milestone and the players are throwing a celebratory party which Cassie has been convincing me to go to with her, Case, and Anna. Although I initially strongly refused, my resolve is already waning because safe for the drama that occurred in the parking lot on Mond

"Woah, remind me not to compliment you ever again, Cookie" Roman says, with raised eyebrows in shock. Ugh, that stupid nickname again. "That wasn't a compliment, you were mocking me" I counter, "I should knee you in the balls for that alone, but coupled with all your other crimes from the first day I was unlucky enough to hear the name Roman Masters, castration is the "appropriate equivalent" I continue, throwing his earlier words back at him. Yeah, I know, I might have gone a little overboard with the threats but he honestly brought out the worst in me. Collins takes a step back from me after my threat at Roman and everyone is looking at him and waiting for his response. He surprises us all by bursting into laughter so deep that he wipes tears from his eyes. What is it with him and laughing at my threats? Before anyone else can say anything, Whitney's loud voice breaks the silence. "Let's play a game" she offers, grabbing Roman's elbow and gazing up at him with some forced sedu

We had to walk around the circle made by each participant of the game who are all sitting or standing to form a huge circle within which the bottle spins, with Case leading us, Cassie behind him and me behind her. There's a crowd in front so we have to wait a bit in order for it to clear up. I'm contemplating pushing through everyone because the urge to pee has increased to a nearly unbearable feeling when I hear a loud voice saying, "Truth or Dare, sexy girl in red" I turn towards the sound of the voice and startle because nearly everyone is looking at Cassie and me. I spare a glance at Cassie and notice she's looking at me too. Geez what’s going on now... "Truth or Dare, Red" This time it's Damon who speaks, nodding his head at me with a smirk. "Uh... Why are you talking to me? I'm not playing" My voice conveys my confusion. Moose walks up to where we're standing and it's then I notice that the bottle on the wood platform thingy used for the spin is pointing directly at where I

We head towards our earlier destination, the restroom but I’ve lost interest in all things and would rather just go back home and pee in my own comfortable, safe toilet with no lying ambush in sight. I spend more than the usual time required and after I'm done using the restroom and washing my hands and face, I step out to join Cassie who stands waiting for me in the hallway. She looked at me as if trying to gauge my mood which should be easy because I was not in a good mood and had no strength to pretend otherwise. I'm guessing you're ready to leave?” She looks guilty and I want to tell her she shouldn’t feel bad, although she may have been the one to convince me to attend the party, Moose and Damon were to be blamed for the shitstorm I experienced, Roman too just because he would always share the blame for my dilemmas as my permanent enemy. “I’m more than ready to leave” I reply “Okay, let me find Case so he can give us a ride back” She turns to leave towards the direction of the

It's Saturday and Mom is taking Leo and me to the spa. The treat is a reward for the gazillion chores we did this morning. Leo vacuumed the entire house including our basement for which I don't envy him, while I did the general laundry. I'm completely pleased about getting pampered and spoilt by a variety of spa attendants catering to my care. After the night I had yesterday with the stupid dare and then the near kiss with Roman, I more than deserve it. There's nothing like a good pampering to put a girl in a fantastic mood. Another reason for our trip to the spa is that Mom wants to spend quality time with us, having been absent for hours on end due to the multiple shifts she had to take in the hospital, she’s been more absent than present lately and I know she feels guilty. I wish I could tell her to save her guilt though because Leo and I definitely put to good use the period of no adult/parental supervision. I went to a party in an outfit I doubt Mom would’ve approved of and Leo

On Monday morning, I and Cassie arrive on the school grounds on time, Cassie parks the car and we hop out. We are immediately joined by Case who can’t seem to stay five feet away from Cas, they hug and kiss in greeting while I let out a groan in frustration. "Isn't it a bit too early for this, and I'm right here" I complain They both laugh in response, the inconsiderate asses. "I'm always third-wheeling where you're both concerned" I continue complaining out loud as we enter inside and walk towards our lockers "I don't think 'third-wheeling' is an actual word, bestie" is Cassie's response. I wonder how that is what she chooses to focus on from what I complained about. My usage of wrong or not vocabulary was not the point. "Maybe I should start hanging out more with Anna since we're both single" This was actually a good idea, although I'm not as close to Anna as I am to Cassie, but Anna is a cool person. I'm still lost in my thoughts when Cassie interrupts, "Uh... I think you jus

I’m dumbstruck while he continues, “Your glares… your snark, it turns me on. Just thought you should know” He finally concludes with a shrug. He says this so casually, that one would think we were discussing the weather. My jaw drops open. Did I just hear right? “I t-turn you…” I splutter. I’m so shocked I can’t form a complete sentence, I’m sure I look completely dumb with my eyes and mouth open and hanging. I shut my eyes to get my bearings together, after counting from one to five, I open my eyes. Physically I must look put together and in complete control but inside my heart beats so loud in my chest I can barely hear myself as I spit out, “You. are. Disgusting!” He laughs in response and places his hands against my desk, he leans forward until we are at eye level, with his voice low, as if his next words are for me alone, he speaks, “And you. look. Turned on” I gasp and he continues, “I think I might like you, no other girl makes me laugh

It's lunch break and Cassie and I are heading to the cafeteria. We’re waiting in line to get food when Collins approaches us. “Hey” He greets, his arms open and he hugs me. I’m stunned by it because although we spoke at the party last Friday night, however were not friends or anything. I could count how many times we’ve spoken to each other and we’ve both attended Rixon High for years. “Hey, Collins” I greet him when I’m finally able to pull away from his hug, although it was unexpected, it wasn't bad, he smells nice at least, not sweaty or foul like some other boys. Cassie waves at him, choosing to remain silent. Collins smiles at me, "You looked really pretty last night" "Thank you" "I wished we had got to speak more" He confesses as we get our food and walk towards the cafeteria chairs. We stop at the table where Case and his friends are sitting. "Hey man" He greets Case and they shake hands and hug in that bro-like h

Roman’s POVI have decided to have the talk with my father today. No more postponing, no more hesitating. I’m damn tired of not being able to bring my girl over to my house because she is afraid of my father.I walk over to my father’s office and knock once, then twice. I’ll knock a million times until he lets me in, I know he is inside.“Come in, son” I hear him call out.I chuckle as I twist the handle and step in. He knows it was me just because no one else would ever interrupt him in his office. No one but me.My father sits behind his expensive mahogany desk in his huge as hell office. I hardly come here unless when absolutely necessary, like today. It reminds me of my future, that one day I will likely become a workaholic like him, spending nearly every hour, alone and working.“Father” I say in greeting. I always call him father, never dad for many years and we’re both used to it now.He points at the chair in front of his desk for me to take a seat and I do.I don’t waste a mom

I ask our friends and her brother but none has seen her since classes before lunch and because I don’t want anyone being privy to our private business and I know how private Lindsey is, I don’t tell them what’s happened.I want to go straight to her house and console her and fix this problem but there is still one last thing for me to settle.It is time for Rixon High athletes to train so I know where he must be at, being captain of the basketball team.

CHAPTERRoman’s POVI’m on my way to the cafeteria after class to meet up with Lindsey when one of the janitors walks up to me and tells me that my girlfriend instructed him to find me and tell me to come help her out in the library because she is not feeling well.I give him a look of suspicion but consider his words, although I texted Lindsey to meet me at the cafeteria after her test she never responded. While I had concluded it was because she was in class it could be something else.Maybe something went wrong and she went to the library instead.I’m filled with worry that I don’t interrogate the janitor further but instead take a different turn to lead me to the library.When I get to the library, I realize I don’t even know exactly where Lindsey is at because the library is so huge. I consider calling her to ask but decide to check the literature section first, she is likely to be there because it is her favorite section in the library.I get there and in fact there is a girl th

Lindsey’s POVI am walking to the cafeteria alone after writing one of the most difficult tests I’ve ever written when Collins approaches me.“Hey pretty” He greets with his signature boyish smile.I smile back but my smile is a bit restrained. I know how Roman feels about Collins and I together, even though I don’t know why as I consider Collins a good friend, but I don’t want to do anything that’ll annoy Roman so I keep my distance.“Hey Collins” I respond and he comes and stands in front of me.“I need your help with something” He tells me.I’m confused as I don’t know what I could possibly help him with but I nod, urging him to go ahead and ask.He does, “I’ve been searching for an important textbook in the library for a while now and I’ve not been able to find it, can you come and help me check?”What? I give him a look of confusion. Is he joking? He must be. I laugh a bit just in case then reply, “There are librarians in the library, Collins” I mention the obvious.He grins but

On Monday after Christmas break, I drive my new new car to school. For the first time in months, I’m alone in a car. I’m driving myself rather than getting driven around like an invalid and it’s all thanks to Roman.Just like he had told me, he spoke to my mom and yesterday she even took me to shop for car accessories for my new car. Since I no longer have to worry about her feeling some type of way about Roman buying me a car, I enjoy the feeling of driving the sleekest car I have ever been in, except for Roman’s cars.When I get to school, I park my car and from the tinted glass of the windshield and windows, I can already see the students of Rixon High surrounding me, wondering who is in the car. Nearly everyone knows what everyone drives and so, a brand new expensive car such as this is bound to draw some attention.I should’ve made Roman come with me for the first day but I’m a big girl and I thought I could handle all the looks and whispers on my own.When I open my door and exi

My hand holding my phone shakes as I find Roman’s contact to call him. As my finger rests about an inch away from dialing Roman, I hesitate.I don’t know how to do it, not call him but tell him I’m refusing his gift. Even though I told mom that I’m not rejecting the gift because of her, I think I was lying. A brand new Mercedes Benz car that looks like that must cost a lot, too much. But, the thought of finally owning my own car after always having to beg Leo and ask Cassie for rides all the time feels so good. Sadly I can’t keep it. I harden my mind and call Roman. He answers on the first ring as if he has been waiting for me to call. “Do you like your car?” Is the first thing he says to me. He sounds so anxious like he can’t wait for my answer and hopes I say yes. “I… I do” I answer after a moment of hesitation. I hear Roman breath out with relief. “Thank God. I was getting worried that you didn’t like it, babe” My throat hurts as I force out the words I know he wouldn’t li

Lindsey’s POVOn the morning of my birthday, I wake up feeling all sorts of special. The night before, I had gotten both Christmas and birthday gifts from my mom, Leo and my friends. Leo had gotten his as well but I’m already used to sharing my birthdays with him. I gave him his gift as well. Last night, after I had unwrapped all my gifts, Roman had taken me out to dinner and while he didn’t say specifically that he was taking me out because of my birthday, I assume it was my birthday present. I loved it because the food was awesome and the company, his presence, was even better. I rise from my bed and do a little twirling on the floor, I’m just so happy. My mom yells my name from downstairs and when I quickly rush down, I see mine and Leo’s birthday cake ready with candles on the dinning table.I smile at the sight. It has always been a tradition for as long as I can remember. Mom always bakes a blue and a pink cake for Leo and I for our birthdays, the pink one for me and the blu

I turn to my cousin with a frustrated and doubt filled look. Damon raises an eyebrow at my facial expression. “Do you want my help or not?” I grunt, “Yeah I do. What type of car do you think I should get for her?” I ask him hopelessly. Damon shrugs, “A lambo or something” He replies. My jaw drops in shock, “A Lamborghini? Are you insane!?” My cousin snorts, “Don’t tell me you think it’s too expensive, she is your girlfriend whom I know you love so don’t tell me you’re deciding to be stingy with her gift” I ignore him saying I’m in love with Lindsey, I am but I’ve never told him or anyone, I haven’t even said the word to Lindsey and I should, I plan to tell her on her birthday, but that is not the point of my conversation with Damon right now. A lambo? I’m groan out, “Please where is Cassie and Robyn? I need them back.” I shake my head in exhaustion. Damon gives me a glare for doubting the reasonability of his idea which is an absolutely ridiculous idea. “Call Cassie and ask h

Roman’s POVIt is a few days to Christmas and even fewer to Lindsey’s eighteenth birthday. I have been in a bind all week contemplating a birthday gift for her. I have even brought in Damon, Robyn and Cassie to help me out with ideas and while they have tried by presenting me with numerous options, I’m not satisfied. I’m not very good at gift giving. Having so much money usually means I buy the most expensive things for my friends and family as gifts, but with Lindsey I can not exercise the same level of indifference or carefree attitude. I want to get her a birthday gift that… has meaning. Being with Lindsey Jordan has changed me. She has shown me that money isn’t everything, I mean I always knew that but now I have lived it. The picnic date she had organized for me the night before my birthday as my birthday gift sure didn’t cost anything close to a thousand dollars if I were to wager a guess, but I wasn’t lying when I told her it was the best birthday gift I’ve ever gotten.
