Joshua's pov:"WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO ME?" she yelled while crying. "I OPENED MY HEART OUT INFRONT OF YOU, TOLD EVERYTHING THAT OTHERS DID TO ME. BUT WHAT DID YOU DO? YOU ARE DOING THE SAME!" she said yelling and crying harder. I never saw her like this before. What I made her? She was nothing like this. But she is not saying anything wrong either. She told me everything about her, her vulnerability, insecurities, anxieties and trusted me and what I did, I listened to others and behave rude with her and hurted her. What was I even thinking? She has no one except me and I was also trying to push her away. She really became attached to me and was I not wanting this? Then why when she get attached I tried to turn my back on her. I'm not only weak I'm really a coward. How can I do this how? I'm angry on no one but myself. I look out her face from my embrace and wiped my tears and kissed her eyes and forehead. "Please don't cry I'm so sorry I shouldn't have said that." I apologi
Grace's pov:Me and Joshua are walking to his home for completing our project. Yes, now we decided to do it on Joshua's home because of the drama unfolded infront of him yesterday at the mansion. I don't want him to see that again and become uncomfortable. Yesterday our whole day went in vain because of so much drama we just collected flowers nothing else. Joshua himself asked me to come with him at his home for the project. It's fine with me if he is comfortable. 'And what about your comfort.' my inner voice mocked me. How? How I'm thinking about his comfort instead of mine? I was not like this I was the selfish one who thinks about own comfort before anyone else. He changed me. He made me the person opposite to who I was before. Rude and selfish. Yes these were the words which described me perfectly. Today when that Stacey bitch ratted about me to him, he took my side. He told that I'm his girlfriend his priority in front of everyone without any hesitancy. This act of him made me
Grace's pov :"Are you okay now?" she asked me softly. I nodded my head at her and she smiled. She sent back to her place where she was sitting. "So where we were? Oh yes how did you asked her out?" she again asked making me nervous. I glared at him warning him to not tell anything that happened in the canteen and the classroom. He grinned at me. What's with this expression? "Don't you worry she knows everything thing about us from the starting?" he said to me. What starting? He saw my confused expression and again said "The way you fought with me and told me to stay away from you." she said making me embarrassed. I ducked my head down in embarrassment. But Mrs. Williams mother put her hand on my shoulder. I raised my head towards her and saw her smiling at me. "It's okay." she said reassuring me. "And let me tell you one more thing in starting he used to call you lady don infront of me." she said playfully winking at him.I raised my brow in amusement towards him. He chuckle
Joshua's pov:I took Grace to my room after having our lunch. She got a little emotional too after mum's sweet gestures because I know no one ever did that for her. And I love this side of her. When she express herself show her emotions that how is she feeling. Soft side of her which she not pretends to show that's her real self. Currently we are sitting on my study table. She is sitting opposite to me. I noticed her features which are much more softer than before now her eyes shows emotions, her hair tendrils falling on her face, her full concentration on studying about flowers parts. One thing I more got to know about her that she is very brilliant in studies. When I didn't understood a topic she elaborate that for me. I was surprised how she knew everything when all she do is sleep in the classroom. When I asked her that why she don't do better in class tests and examination and her reply was I didn't wanted to study because for whom she would study. But when I told her she shoul
'Most people are about as happy as they make up their minds to be.'It was a very beautiful quote by Abraham Lincoln. My dad is fond of quotes and I knew if he dedicated this quote to Grace there is some reason behind it. She watched him confused. "I bought this clip many years ago for my daughter when Joshua's mother was pregnant with him." he said and glanced at me. "I thought we will have a babygirl." he said and smiled at her. I know he is emotional on that topic but I didn't said anything because I know he still loves me a lot. "I will be happy if you will accept it." he said to Grace. Grace took the clip from him and immediately clipped it to her hair. "How am I looking?" she asked beaming at my dad. "Just like my daughter." he said smiling. "I'm getting smell of something or someone burning." Grace said suddenly. I immediately turned my head here and there search what's burning. When I again turned my head to them they both were smirking at me. "Yahh! I'm not jealous."
Joshua's pov:"Grace and Joshua." he said and everyone clapped. I got surprised and hugged Grace in excitement but came to my senses that we are in classroom and deatched from her clearing my throat. She chuckled at my foolishness. "Rowan and Saisha." he announced the last pair's name and everyone again clapped. "Congratulations to the winners. Projects of these three pairs will be sticked to the school's activity board and rest is the students can collect their projects from my desk." he said.The students started walking to the teacher's desk and collected their projects and sat back on their places. Mr. Brown started teaching us the new chapter from our text book. The time passed by and all the teachers came, teach us their subject and went away. Finally the school get over. The four of us decided to celebrate our winning in a cafe. "I will eat so many pastries today." she said getting excited. "Like you don't eat them usually." Brandon replied back. "So what I like them."
Joshua's pov:My eyes were becoming heavy and they closed. Someone yanked me from the collar and pushed me on the ground. When all the hands get off from me I thought they stopped. Suddenly a very chilling cold liquid was poured on me. When I slowly raised my head to see what it was but was not able to see what it was because of my blurry vision. "Stop." someone unfamiliar voice yelled but I was too numb to recognize the voice. I rubbed my eyes and then tried to see, they were emptying their coke can on me. I tried to shook my head but I didn't have that much strength. The coke was drenching my clothes and they were now stuck to my body completely. When they stopped pouring the coke someone punched me and my lip busted. The metallic taste of blood filled my mouth. I tried to stop them but nothing worked. "Stop." I whispered but I know they didn't even heard it. I gasped when all of them started kicking me. I asked them to stop many time why they were monsters who let their dark side
Grace pov:After he fell unconscious in my lap. Kevin brought his car from the parking. Brandon and Jordan placed Joshua on the back seat of it. I also sat back putting his head on my lap. Brandon sat on the passenger seat and Kevin drove the car. My mind has stopped working. I don't know what to say and do. So I called Joshua's mom first. She received the call.~His mom: Hello Grace. ~Me: Aunty. (I whispered.) ~His mom: Yes what happened? ~Me: J-Joshua is injured. (I stuttered out.)~His mom: H-how what happened to him?

The helpers came and took out Joshua from the car and out him on the strecher, taking him inside. I followed them. They took him in a room and c
Joshua's pov:Currently we both are laying on my bed after we came back home. "I'm so happy for you." I said to her. She nodded at me. I glanced at her lips and desire to taste her abrupted in me. So, I smashed my lips on her and kissed her softly. I held her both hands above her head intertwining our fingers. I pulled away and gazed in her eyes breathlessly. "I want you Grace." I told her honestly what I'm feeling now. "Then take me." she said breathing heavily and her eyes closed."We aren't married yet is it okay to you?" I again asked for her consent. "Yes, I trust you." she said intensely. I leaned down and kissed her forehead, her eyes, her nose, her cheeks and then again captured her lips. I moved my lips a little roughly this time and she also kissed me back with the same intensity. I held her head a little up with my hand to deepen the kiss. I pulled out, as she parted her lips to breath I again my smashed my lips on her. She clutched my shoulders tightly because of the
Joshua's pov:(2 years later) :I hope Grace pass out with good grades so that she could get a decent job opportunity. I don't want everyone to graduate leaving her behind. She did hark work for the examination but didn't tell me how did she did in exams. I kept thinking about her, sooner or later, the most awaiting moment came. I found Grace sitting straight and focusing while biting her nails. I swatted her hand away from his mouth. She glanced at me nervous. I put my hand on her and assured her that everything will be fine but inside I'm more nervous than her. "So students... We all expect good things for you, results won't decide your future but still, this would give you a brief overview of how you worked throughout the years." The principal paused and took out three sheets, that were personally decorated. He smiled and continued. "These are the top three names that stood ranking and I'm very glad to call them on the stage." he announced. I glanced at Grace her eyes were close
Grace pov:I smirked at her principal and started telling the truth to the officers. "A group of seniors bullied by boyfriend and hurted him badly that he was hospitalized. Today when I complained about it to our principal he asked me for proof and witness." I said without moving my gaze away from the principal. "Can we talk to the victim?" the officer asked."Yes sure." I said and went outside if the office and took Joshua with me. I make him sit on the chair there. "Hello I'm officer Robinson came here to investigate your case." officer said and shook hand with Joshua. "Hello officer I'm Joshua Williams." he replied. "Joshua we got a complaint about you getting bullied. Is it true?" he asked him. Joshua turned his head to me I nodded at him to tell the truth.I turned his head back and said "Yes officer they bullied me many times but a week ago they crossed their limits." I put my hand on his shoulder to comfort him. The officer nodded and asked "Can we saw the footage of that
Grace's pov:I called Candice and she received the phone. I told her to come to the principal office with Brandon and convince some students to be the witness of Joshua's bullying incident. I hung up the call and dashed to security room. The security incharge was already present there. "Show me the footage of a week ago." I demanded. He nodded and played the footage of a week ago when I played it at the time when Joshua get bullied there was not clip and it was totally blank. How is it possible? There is the footage of whole day but not only of the incident. Now I get that why that principal was asking for proof. He make them remove that clip from the footage so it can't be proved that the a student get bullied in his school. I gritted my teeth. I will not let that happen.I turned to the security incharge. "Where is the clip of the incident?" I asked sternly. "Which incident clip?" he asked acting confused. "Why will I do that? When seniors didn't even bullied ayone?" he said. "
Joshua's pov:She laid down beside me putting her head on my shoulder. "You didn't do anything they did this because you hurted their male ego." I told her softly. "So they should have taken their revenge from me." she spat gritting her teeth. "No, it would have hurted me hundred time more than it is hurting now. I can't see you in pain bellisima." I told her honestly. "Same I can't see you in pain." she said caressing my arm softly. I nodded at her. "But I will make them pay for sure." she said clenching her fists tightly. I took her fist in my hand and caressed it softly with my thumb. "You don't have to." I told her. "Do you want to eat something or do you want anything?" She asked me changing the topic. "No, I just want to lay here with you." I said and shifted her more closer to me and closed my eyes. I enjoyed this peaceful moment with her and don't know when drifted to sleep.-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*Grace's pov:He thinks that I will let them go
Grace's pov: He had bruises and cuts all over his face and body. His lips was busted.Touching his bruises softly I sighed. "You have bruises all over your face." I said sadly. He gave me a lip tight smile. "Oww. It hurts." suddenly he hissed. I took my hand back immediately. "I'm sorry." I apologized. "Just kidding." he grinned at me like a fool. This idiot scared me. This time I pressed my finger a little tightly at the same place to make him taste his own medicine. "Owww." he hissed. "It hurts?" I asked smirking at him.He nodded at me. It really hurted him my smirk vanished and eyes softened. I bent my upper body towards him and pecked his busted lip caressing his cheek like it will sooth him. He closed his eyes softly. 'He is in so much pain just because of you.' my inner voice mocked me. I moved my body back, tears were pooled in my eyes. "Hey why are you crying?" he asked surprised on his face."You are hurt because of me." I said and the tear trickle down my cheek. "No
