"Tell me Bree are you going to confess," Ash asked and I look towards him.
"Ash there is no way okay? Like you said he has never dated anyone seriously and someone like me doesn't stand a chance...he is famous and I am nothing but newbie" I mumble. Ash sighs and then smiles gently at me.
"I think same about Alexander before that night Ash I know it's difficult I can understand your situation, you know a nerd guy's like us never even dream about date some famous student, but I tell you one truth Bree listen carefully we all are just a Highschool students nothing more nothing less after 10 years many nerds like us become a billionaire and millionaire and many famous students like them earn 1000$ per month or they will work under the nerd students like us"
"Why are you telling me all those shit Ash and we are not a character's of some fictional Stories it's a real-life" I gare for him he is talking nonsense.
"Hey Bree"I fitch when Ash calls me."Huh?"Ash gave me a wired look and then say"I am telling you that I think Brandon knows that you know why they bully you and he's really pissed. Judging by what Alexander told me the day we helped you Brandon had been snapping at everyone until he made that two pay in the best way. I heard they were called to the principal's office for you know...drugs. Someone told the principal about they are doing some drug dealing business in school and I am damn sure it was none other than Brandon. I think he makes all this plan to make them suffer and put them in their places and I am sure Bree they will never going put a finger on you"I bit my lipsBrandon did all this because of me."S-So h-he i-is p-protesting me" I shutter and Ash nodded"And Bree, you know, Sammy, Clare and me have still not forgiven ourselves for letting all those things happen to you. I know you didn't tell us but we could have stuck with you whenever you disappeared. We're also
After Brandon pull that stunt, I can barely concentrate on the lesson all I can see is the note Brandon left me with my heart thudding harshly. Me? A date? With Brandon? Second date? Wait..that time at Starbucks was a date? Not that I have any experience over what date is but still.Well, all my life I was single, it's not like no one tries to hit me.When I am in 6 grade a girl tries to hit me she ask me to date but I refused her.Why?Because damn I am so gay, my siblings even laugh their ass off because I reject the most pretty girl in my class.When did they ask me why I did that?I tell them about me being gay.Firstly both of them got shocked but then they accept me.Well except my father, everyone accepts me but my father well I was so lucky that time that my brother's used to love me or father surely kill me being a
The rest of the day Ash is rambling about what I should wear,and how I will going to seduce Brandon etc.I smack him for seducing part but he just grins.After that, I barely pay attention because although I'm super nervous for the out of nowhere date I have, I just hope everything go well and the awkward little me not create a problem.Thinking all those stupid things I spotted someone, well it was none other than the evil queen, I feel myself fitch when I see Jia evil face.Her face is twisted in a way that tells me she has cooked up something and the knot in my stomach grows every time I see her.Is she going to do something bad again?What she is even planning?How dare you Braze, how can you forgot that you don't deserve happiness?How can you even think about going to date with Brandon?You ar
I open my eyes dazed not knowing where I am for a second. It felt weird opening my eyes like something is stinging all over my face and then I remember: coming home, dad, the letter, crying and..fainting. My eyes widen because I've only fainted once and it was the day after that night. I sit up and take a glance at the clock and immediately stand up because I start in 30 minutes.I take a deep breath and try to collect my emotions or you can say I try hard not to cry. After everything Jace and Alex did to me after everything, I said to them today I just hope they leave me alone. I really don't want to see any of their faces, I just wish I can run away from everything but I can't because I am just 16.I need to wait till I turn 18 so I can get out from this hell and from everyone.I fell asleep while thinking about and planning everything.Next day when I get to school I still have this lump in my throat no
"Ash. Ash please I don't wanna go. I'm serious. I will screw it up either way but is it so hard for you to understand that I don't want to go out with Brandon?" I plead desperately but Ash looks at me blankly and then reposition himself so he looks like he's thinking. And then he smiles widely."You know if you want I can hide in the bushes and observe and text you want to say" For goodness sake Ash! I'm almost hyperventilating right now but Ash takes my hand and starts dragging me."Ash," I exclaim desperately."Oh hush Bree" When we go out into the hallway I see him standing there as gorgeous as ever and my breath gets caught in my throat. He can't see me but...he's so hot, kind, helpful, understanding and so perfect. He's the kind of person who you can call for an emergency any time even if it's in the middle of the night. Ash clears his throat and I avert my gaze quickly and he chuckles teasingl
DarkWhy it's so Dark?Why I can't see anything?Please, someone, switches on the light.Please I am so scared, pleasePleasePlease"Slap him again. Goodness."I hear a voice, not a soft voice but an evil voice. I don't know who the voice belongs to but I feel a sting on my left cheek and my eyes burst open and I notice that my face is covered in saltwater from the tears and I know I must've been thrashing around. But where I am and who slap me.And the most important question is what they want for me?But..as soon as I open my eyes I still can't see. For a second I panic thinking that I've gone blind until I recognise that it's a blindfold against my eyes and the events that happened on my porch come crashing back down on me.Why?Because I remember everything o
I slowly open my eyes and find myself covered in a blanket with someone next to me. I'm in a car with people.So I am alive and safe."So the fuckers were going to rape you huh?" Alexander. Did he save us?Thank God he save us especially Ash, he doesn't deserve any of this."I should have fucking killed them or done something worse" Brandon. Is he also here? He also came to save usMurder, Rape. Those two words imply so much that it hurts just to think about them. But now when they're said out loud I can't help but think back to that horrible day where everything went downhill.-Nice party huh?-Yeah, Tommy's, pretty nice.., I say although I'm beyond bored.-Hey, isn't that your brother's ex? I freeze and turn around and see Jia smug face. And..aren't those cuffs? I g
After all the shits ,I stare as Brandon and Alexander go up to take a shower. Wow. I have a boyfriend. And it's Brandon. None other than fucking Brandon. I try to slowly take in that realisation but Ash destroys my faze speaking the words out loud like a crazy lunatic."Duuuuuuudeeeeeee! Bitcchhhhh!!! You just got a boyfriend. You just got Brandon! Dude. If I were you I would tattoo that on my face for all to see!"I smile slightly at his enthusiasm but I have to get one thing done first."Ash, can I borrow your phone to call my house?""They took my phone remember? Use Alexander." He gives me Alexander phone and I dial the number taking a deep breath."Hello?" Alex. Well, that's still better than Dad."Hey, Alex it's me Braze. Listen can you tell mum and dad I'm staying over at Ash house for a while? His family is in Florida and he doesn't wanna be alone." I lie.
When we walk out of the school, we're met by two detectives who eye us up and down."What were you doing here? I think it's past school hours don't you think?" He asks. I give Brandon a panicked look and he's about to answer the detective when a familiar voice does it instead:"Because I gave them permission to do so"We turn around and see Hodge approaching us.The detective huffs. "You were the one that called us right? How come you gave them permission to enter the school alone and how did you know that Jia was going to be there?"Hodge clears his throat. "Well you see, they suspected that our school receptionist suicide was not really a suicide and eventually they found what they believe is the stolen video. I could not contact the police because up until now these were just speculations. When they found the footage, they called me and said that they might have evidence and I told them
We're on our way to drop off Nia and Elven when Ash stops the car two blocks away from Elven house."Thanks for coming Elven." Ash says. At least thirty seconds pass with pure silence before Ash turns around and looks at Elven. "Why are you still here?"Elven is utterly confused and Nia speaks up, " Elven, I think he wants you to get out of the car. You've annoyed him today so he stopped the car a few blocks away from your house because he wants revenge." Nia explains and you can see the realisation dawning on Elven."So wait...you're mad at me?!!" Elven asks like he can't believe it.Ash glares at him. Elvem and Alexander turns to Elven and say at the same time: "Get out."Elven puts his hands up in defence. "Fine whatever. Nia come on."Nia looks up at him and raises her eyebrows.Elven gapes. "Nia! What the hell you're my g
We stop by Elven house where we pick up both him and NiaElven opens the passenger seat door and scowls at Alexander. "Get outta here the passenger seat is reserved for the one and only me!"Alexander has been irritated the entire ride and I try to tell Elven with my eyes that now is not the right time. Alexander glares at him and slaps Elven hand away from the door. "Fuck off." He dismisses and slams the door in his face.Elven is about to fight for his rightful seat when Nia grabs his arm, noticing Alexander mood. "Stop complaining before I'll make you sit in the trunk."Elven rolls his eyes and we squeeze ourselves together in the back seats but we're four people so we're not able to sit comfortably. I hear Brandon sigh before he lifts me up and places me on his lap. "You sit here so we can fit."I roll my eyes embarrassingly but when he puts his arms around me I put my head against his shoulder
Our kiss loses control and after a few seconds Brandon is shirtless and we find ourselves having a make out session in the water. Brandon kisses me hard and I whimper crashing my head into the sand and it's only the feeling of water sorrounding my head and coming into my nose that breaks our trance. I push Brandon away and start coughing violently.Brandon laughs a little and start dunking my back. I stop coughing and instead try to breathe properly but I can't help but let out a little after cough.I smile guiltily. "Sorry for ruining the mood.."Brandon kisses me again. "Darling. I literally pushed you into the water while we were making out, you could've drowned. No need to apologise. In fact, I'm sorry"I grin. "It's okay." I look around still shivering at the water around me. "So um..you still wanna be in here?""I don't know, do you still want to sit in the water? Because I must admi
I shake my head. These people! But wait a minute..I open the door and interrupt their make out."Clare when the hell did you get discharged?!" Clare jumps making Jace and her break apart. Both of their eyes widen and their cheeks start forming a red shape."Panda! Wh-When did you get home?!" Clare asks while she looks down at her clothes making sure that they're sitting right."Just now. When did you get out of the hospital?""Just now. I was supposed to be released tomorrow morning but I insisted. Then Jace called me and you know we're dating so..."I raise my brow. "And you didn't think that it was necessary to text me and Ash?"Clare eyes drop down and Jace turns to me. "Give her a break Braze! She just came out of the hospital of course she's going to visit her boyfriend first!"I sigh. Sure you can visit your boyfriend but at least t
Brandon mother eyes me from top to toe. "Good choice Brandon, he looks adorable. Are you sure you deserve him?""Oh mum, stop, you're embarrassing him!" Brandon says and gives me a wide grin.I glare at him. "Brandon release me." I hiss but Brandon shakes his head."Brandon I have to greet your mum properly!" I hiss again and struggle in his arms because I'm legit starting to panic.I hear Brandon mum chuckle and I see here approaching. She ruffles my hair playfully and I give her a small smile. "No need. I like you a lot not like that other boy."When she mentions 'that other boy' her face twists in anger for a second before returning to be the nice mum. "I told Brandon not to choose him. But I really like you,little rose"'Well I guess it's a family thing to call me little rose..'I think to myself.Then she glares at Brandon. "I'll punch you
Alexander crosses his arms and curses . "You two are reckless, thoughtless, idiotic-..!""But smart." Brandon interrupts and gives us a proud smile. "Way to go team AshBree, now we can take down this psycho."Alexander looks at Brandon with warning. Ash entire face lights up."AshBree?! Did you hear that Alexander? Omg we have a ship name Bree!" He says like he can't believe it and then jumps at me, squishing me with his body.I whimper when he squeezes too much, my body still being a bit sore."That's enough idiota" Who would've thought that Alexander would be my savior.Ash releases me and apologises."AshBree. BreeAsh. Sounds so good, nice one Brandon! AshBree!""Goodness grief, this boyfriend of mine.." Alexander mumbles. "Idiota focus on what's important!"Ash snaps out of it and turns serious. "Oh yeah, right!"
Ash quickly crawls out and I'm right behind him, trembling because this is it. This is how Braze future ends. Under a fucking desk, caught by non other than freaking Hodge."Well..we just you know..got lost? I needed to use a computer so I could..email my mum! Because ..uh..I don't have a phone! And well I heard there are some really awesome computers down here so we went here!" Ash lamely explains and I want to facepalm myself. Really? Fucking really? That's the explanation that's going to save our future? I'm fucked.Hodge raises our brow. "Really? Then explain why you were under the desk?"Ash looks at me pleadingly and I bite my lip."Because..um.. Ash doesn't know his mum's email so he wrote it done on a piece of paper that he dropped on the ground and he couldn't find it. It's very dark in here so I went down with him on the floor to look and turned on the flash on my phone." I lie and put on a smile. Ha.Haha. Great, thi
"We've been here for an hour Ash what the hell are you doing? We should get out. Now. We haven't found anything!" I plead anxiously. I keep on glancing at the door, my nerves on edge.Ash is currently sitting in front of some computers checking surveillance or something and by the looks of it he hasn't found anything."I'm not leaving until I can prove that I'm right Braze" he says, still concentrated on the several screens in front of him.I sigh frustrated. "Ash enough. You're gonna get us in trouble and your theory is absurd. Thank you, I mean it, but we can't go blaming everything on Jia as soon as something bad happens because we want to bring her down."Ash gives out a frustrated sound and start to scratch his hair. " i don't get it! Why can't I find anything?!"I sigh. " What are you even looking for?""Since the clip where the actual murder
