Zoe had thought that with what she had let out would make him back off. She had thought he was going to feel hurt and leave but she still turned to notice him following her. She turned around to say something but ended up facing him very close. ”Considering the way we met, I don't think it would be possible for us to be friends.” she said while putting her hand on her hips. ”What, why is that? Oh you mean because we kissed?” He asked with an expression that was hard to detect. She stared at him as she noticed how beautiful his blue eyes were. ”Come on Zoe, that's more reason we should be friends, all pressure is supposed to be totally off since we made out.” Alex said with seriousness. It felt really weird inside Zoe's tummy seeing the way he stared at her and was clearly forcing himself to be friend of hers. Zoe hissed making sure nobody who bullied or picked on her was around them.She turned to notice a smile plastered on his well-created face, all that he knew best was how to s
Luke had already left the bakery but Zoe felt really odd after accepting to date him. Can someone just shout it to her capricious mind, Zoe was finding it hard to admit that she was really dating somebody! She decided to get off work early.She really wanted to go meet Dora at the spa but got a message from that unknown number who had sent her a message last week asking if they could talk.”Hey beautiful, I can't wait to see you after your shift.” Luke Zoe could feel her face heating up, it felt like she was dreaming. She texted him back before setting her phone close to her chest. She wondered if this was love or something? She was about to head to the spa but got a message from Dora saying she couldn't make it because she was going to Parker's house to settle their differences. Zoe decided to head home, when she reached home, she noticed Luke on the porch playing some game on the tv, Luke looked up from his game to notice she was back.His face had a smile that m
"Wait, why don't you use your powers? I mean all werewolves are gifted with special powers, what exactly is yours?" Alex asked but got no reply. "Okay! Back to you. You have a problem swinging around right?” Alex asked yet again. He started doing some moves in the ballet which totally made Zoe shocked. ”I'm not a ballet kind of person, would you please just quit it already?" She said, staring at Alex. ”Hmm, Would you possibly want some help?” Alex offered, still committing to the ballet dance he was doing. ”Are you sure you helping me won't bring an attack?" Zoe asked, being sarcastic. His lips twitched but he otherwise still ignored her. "Come on, I will show you what to do." He said dragging her close to him, she could feel their heartbeats. Zoe knew that she had already been embarrassed too much for today. She doesn't think that her self-esteem could handle more shame but she couldn't lose a grade point over this ballet. ”Don't be afraid, I won't let you fall again and I promise
Just like a blink of an eye. School on friday flew by rapidly. it felt like the supernaturals were gleaming in excitement for the basketball game, including the teachers aren't left out. Tons of posters plastered all over the school walls for the gamers. Since today Zoe barely saw Luke around, he must be preparing with his team. By the time she saw Luke! It was almost time for them to be in the locker room before the game started. He had given her a jacket with his name and number imprinted on it. He had kept his hand on her waist as he dragged her close to his chest and she had wrapped her hands around his neck.”You are coming for the after-party right?” Luke asked staring at her eyes. Zoe rolled her eyes before answering. ”Of course Luke, I will always do.” she assured him. He smiled before leaning down to kiss her lips softly and tenderly. Zoe knew that this was the time she wouldn't mind kissing Luke forever but soon enough he pulled away. ”Do I have to go?” he asked playfully
Okay, to be wholly truthful. Zoe did try all her possible best to stay away from Alex after the game on friday but It was just too hard to do. She tried to avoid him in the school hallway but he did stop Bella and them since Bella now strolled around school with them. The dance practice hall was the worst, there wasn't any place she could hide from him there. When he did talk to Zoe! She would pretend like she couldn't hear him but after a while she found herself laughing at his jokes or thinking about stuff he said earlier during the day.So she gave up every attempt to avoid Alex. After a bit of thinking, she didn't come out with any serious reason why she shouldn't be friends with him. He had promised never to bring up the night at the party which gave her total relief. Exactly three months after she and Alex met and they have been friends, great friends actually. He was very easy to talk to! She tried hard not to get uncomfortable sometimes though.She had a hard time trying to
So, it is Sunday night in July. It's rainy and cold like most nights tend to be and the moon tends to brighten the night. Mum had gone out with friends and dad went to the hospital to see a friend. Zoe had the house to herself since Luke went to the grocery store but soon enough he was back. Zoe is up in her room where the sweet strawberry pie scent keeps coming through her window from the neighbor's apartment.Her homework was scattered all over her desk. She decided to stroll down to take water from the fridge when she noticed that Luke was back and was refilling the fridge with the items he had bought. ”You are back?” she asked. ”Yes, I just wanted to put this in the fridge before coming up to your room.” Luke said, coming forward to kiss her lips. ”Can you help me with my assignment?” she asked Luke. ”Yeah,” He said, following her to her room. She and Luke didn't even go half of the assignment as they commenced making out on her bed. She had nothing to worry about since her par
"Sure," Bella gestured at the empty seat opposite Zoe for Lisa to seat. Zoe wondered if Bella didn't know she and Lisa weren't ever on good terms. Everyone knew that they were mortal enemies. Zoe knew that if Bella realized she wouldn't have left Lisa to sit at this table. Lisa sat down flipping her hair back to expose her chest. She had a necklace hanging in between her boobs. Yes, Zoe knew that Lisa was pretty for sure. Zoe promised to remove her braces off today and start applying some makeup today.It was still silent on the table. Knowing that everyone was still watching her, Lisa picked an apple from her tray before she examined it. After a short while, she took a bite from the apple in an inappropriate way. Was she trying out an xxx-rated movie? ”Mmh, this is good, you want some bite?” She asked Luke as she leaned forward so he got a good look at her cleavage. Zoe glared malevolently at Lisa but she smiled nonetheless still holding the stupid apple in her hand.Zoe was about
The school day was almost over. Dora, Bella, and Zoe were in the practice hall. Halloween was two days away so they had been practicing but Bella has been feeling nervous and freaking out. She kept saying people were going to hate her for ruining their Halloween dance. Zoe sighed. She could notice Alex in the practice hall laughing and messing around with his friends. "There is still time for you to figure out everything, you just need some inspiration," Zoe said, trying to ease her panic. She was still watching Alex and his friends! they had basically started dumping their water bottles on each other while they used their powers. "Show off!" Zoe said before scoffing.Soon enough, Alex was getting soaked."Quit acting like children and get ready for class," the teacher screamed at them. Alex shook the water out of his hair and pulled his wet t-shirt off while searching for a new one. Zoe wondered if her eyes had bulged out of her face because Alex without a shirt was just! Wow. S
It had been two weeks since Zoe got into such an accident and hadn't opened her eyes. Alex felt bad, sad, miserable, just call it whatever you want to. I'm only Glad that after telling Mr. Zander the entire truth he still didn't resent me. It was snowy today and I sat down at the hospital bed with my hand intertwined with Zoe's. I know how much she cherishes it, "water! Water," I heard the faint voice of Zoe. I thought I had heard wrong as I placed my ear close to her and just as I heard, Zoe needed water. I couldn't console the joy as I rushed to get her some water. I missed her so much and I hope she doesn't resent me, after taking the water she held my hand into her. "What about your son? I wouldn't object if you want to be with him please just don't leave me! I don't know who I would be without you," she finally said. I couldn't believe she still cared about me after what I had done. I must be lucky because the Goddess had blessed me with my true soul mate, I could notice the t
"Where have you been, you got me worried," Zoe said as she hugged him very tight, I mean more than she has ever done but he did something shocking, and he pulled away."We have to talk, Zoe," he said, making Zoe anxious. Zoe wondered if what she feared the most had happened. She marveled at if he had gotten tired of her. "All ears, you can tell me anything and I am willing to listen," she said, trying to hold his hand tightly. "You remember I told you that I was going for the after-party?" he said with a sad grin plastered on his face. Zoe hated the fact that he was moody and she wished she could make him smile."Yes, well?" Zoe asked in much curiosity. "Well, I got drunk and I had a one-night stand with some total stranger! A human girl and I regret it," he said bowing his head in shame. To be honest, Zoe didn't know how to react but she just had to let it go if she truly loved him. She could see how sorry he was and she just couldn't let him feel worse even if it was hurting her b
"Darling? We are going to miss you," Dad said while hauling Zoe closer for a tight hug and perking her on the forehead. When he was done with his pitiful goodbye it was Lillian's turn. "I would miss you so much baby Zoe, I mean college would be a life-changing experience in the human world! You are going to leave far away from home," she said in between hugs as she rubbed Zoe's back.Zoe just couldn't help but let out a drop of tears. "I'm going to miss you guys both, I promise," Zoe said as she used the back of her hands to clean the drop of tears that touched her already done makeup. "Moreover, Alex and Dora are both going to be with me," Zoe said, assuring them that she would be fine.They were still exchanging goodbyes when Dora's driver pulled up in front of their home. "Bitch, you need to hurry your ass or we might miss our plane," she yelled, making Zoe's dad hurriedly help her out with the luggage. Zoe was about to slide into the car when she got a text from Alex. Alex and Z
The school year had come to an end and all that the students talked about was prom. Zoe had seen Alex in school once in a while, he wasn't much into people the way he normally was. Zoe was going to ask Dora but she didn't want her to get the wrong idea. The more she saw him in school. The more he looked sick to her, the prom was always something every teenager tends to be happy about. I mean they get to be asked to prom by their crush, boyfriends, and friends. Most importantly they get to wear some fancy gowns and suits. Luke had asked Zoe to prom and she had agreed, not that she could turn him down! Right? He was her boyfriend after all.Bella had moved on from Alex which Zoe was glad about. She sometimes talks about him casually with her but she tends to brush off anything about him, she had found another guy to obsess about. She always talked about him every time they met up, and Zoe guessed he was their new neighbor.Dora, and Parker we're still the best of crazy couples in schoo
Zoe immediately tried to get to the door of their Bella's but she was quick to throw her a punch in the face causing a nosebleed which Zoe totally deserved. Zoe's things were thrown outside. Zoe tried to open the door but she had locked her outside. "Bella, what about we talk about this! You totally misunderstood whatever you must have seen." Zoe said, hoping she would understand. "I really hate you Zoe and I hope you get into an accident and die, how could you do this to me." She said amidst tears. Zoe understood she was heartbroken and needed some space, I mean Bella had every right to be furious. Zoe turned to notice Alex still standing there, he was about to come closer. "Alex, just go home already! this was enough drama already for me," Zoe said walking past him and entering her car, she just couldn't believe this was happening.Zoe decided to place her key in her steering and zoom off but she just couldn't help herself to drive home because her hands were quite shaky. She co
The day before Bella's birthday she called and asked Zoe to help her babysit her cousins. Apparently, they were giving her tons of trouble, and if Zoe wanted her friend to stay sane. She needed to help her out. Zoe had to get up early and go over to her house, within the first few moments of being there with her cousins, Ricky and Ronnie. Zoe realized that Bella had been totally dramatic, they were fine and had no issue.Zoe thought Bella was probably bored and wanted somebody to talk to. Which kind of pissed her off, Zoe felt like she could be sleeping at home rather than being in her quiet house. Zoe could be sleeping at home while hugging her pillow tightly. Instead, she was stuck with Bella watching some freaking cartoon. Both her cousins are under five years old. It's not like they can watch MTV and keep themselves entertained. Zoe was just reading a cute message from Luke when a notification popped up from Alex. She hesitated before reading it. What was she going to tell him
"Oh my Gosh, will you please stop making faces at that baby and help me before Dora probably shows up?" Bella said, annoyed. It was the third time she had said it and right now was the fourth. Bella's parents had decided she had her birthday party at a fancy hotel, her dad apparently knows the owner, so they got a discount.Zoe and Dora and a few other girls were invited to spend the night at the hotel. Ordering room service and getting a manicure, her birthday was a few more days but she asked Zoe to come early and set up a bunch of decorations in the room they had reserved. Balloons, and streamers! That kind of crap. They were hanging stuff up when a woman with a baby girl walked by.Obviously, Zoe had to go see the little princess. Who can really resist a pup? "Sorry, Bella," Zoe muttered before chuckling. She went back to what she was doing afterward. "We should go swimming when we are done, the pool is awesome here," Bella said. "They have a hot tub right?" Zoe asked. "Mm, hm."
Anyway, it's Tuesday night! January is just about to finish. A very crappy month in Zoe's opinion. Nothing seemed to work out, sigh. Zoe, Bella, and Dora are chilling in Dora's gigantic bed. They were going through her enormous closet trying on a different outfit, Bella was helping her choose what to wear and Zoe just lay on the bed staring at them. Zoe has to admit that she was proud of how quickly Bella dropped Alex out of their conversation. Out of her phone and basically out of her life, maybe she finally realized that there is more of life than boys. This was the reason why soulmates or mates are hard to believe. Some married couples who believe they are soulmates are divorced or having quarrels and killing one another somewhere.That sounds really hypocritical coming from Zoe though. I mean the girl who is torn in between two guys, ahh well! "Oh my gosh, I look fat in this dress," Dora complained in front of the mirror. Zoe was stretched on her bed now playing games on her ph
During a later class, Zoe and Bella were discussing her birthday which was approaching soon! "Well, I did want to spend my birthday with Alex but that is not going to happen anymore," Bella said as her face darkened for a second before she smiled again. "I was thinking you, Dora and a few other girls could have a sleepover at my house or something." She said,"Sounds cool but what gift do you want?" Zoe asked. "Hmm, surprise me!" she said. "Bell, I have been trying to come up with a gift idea-" Zoe tried to say but Bella was quick to cut her off. "Fine, how about I make a list of random things I want and you can choose one for me?" she suggested. "Yes, that much better," Zoe said as the teacher handed out an assignment that kept them busy for the rest of the class. Afterward, they were heading to biology when Zoe spotted Alex down the hallway coming in their direction! "Uh," Zoe mumbled. "What, oh, I'll be in here! Let me know when he is gone," Bella said when she noticed Alex. She
