41: The Broken Words
TAYA's POV :
Judah just stared at me for the longest time without saying a word. There was something about him, his face was downcast, which made me even more self-conscious about this whole thing.
"Should I?" I repeated my question again when he wasn't responding.
Please say no. Please tell me to stay.
He kept his head down and took a deep breath. Then he looked up at me with a dejected look on his face as he said, "You... should go,"
"What?" I gaped, but my voice came out in a whisper.
"I said you should go be with him," he repeated himself, his tone was cold and flat.
I was still waiting, thinking that he would say something else, or say that he was joking. But he just stood there with a dead serious expression.
After everything that happened between us, could it be that Judah didn't f

TAYA's POV :I was bawling my eyes out and Blake was driving around for a while. We stayed mostly in silence, and Blake would throw worried glances at me every so often. We were driving around for a while, and when I finally stopped crying, I noticed that we were already on the other side of town. We had arrived at the Harrison Resort, the place where Blake took me on our first date."I didn't know where to go, so..." he trailed as the car reached the lobby entrance."It's okay, this is fine,” I gave him a weak smile. “I just need some air,""Taya, whatever it is that's making you so upset, you know you can tell me, right?"I nodded my head lightly, but I wasn't speaking still. I didn’t think it was fair to unload on him about Judah. So we sat there in silence for a few minutes. I was already tired of crying at this point, so I started wiping my

My head was spinning and I was staggering all over the room, hitting the furniture all around me.After our talk and Blondie took off running, it was as if she took my sanity along with her. I couldn't blame her for leaving though. I said some pretty shitty things to her.I wanted her to leave me alone and that was what she did. But when I saw her took off with Blake in his car, for a split second there I wanted to bang my fist on the car window, telling her to get off.But I had no right.

TAYA’s POV :My eyes widened in shock and my breath was stuck in my throat as I read the screen.Judah Calling...I debated with myself, whether or not I should answer him. It was 2.30 AM right now. What could he possibly have to say to me at this hour?But against my better judgment, my thumb swiped across the screen and I pressed the phone to my ear."Hello?" I said in a whisper, careful not to wake Blake up.The person on the other line didn't say anything, but I could hear him breathing.Judah? Why are you calling me? – I wanted to say, but I didn't say it.I couldn't sleep. Thinking of you. – I imagined hearing him say it, but he was just quiet.There were no words being exchanged. Just empty breaths in the air. An

JUDAH’s POV :Sitting inside the cramped bathroom stall, I found myself drifting in and out of consciousness. With the drugs steadily flowing in my system, I felt warm and nice. So much so that I was taken back to that day where Blondie and I went to the cliff."You wanna know what drugs feel like?" I asked her once.I waited for her to respond, and she nodded her head slightly. I leaned closer, and she thought that I was going to kiss her again because her eyes fluttered shut. But instead, I pulled her in my arms and secured her tight."They feel like a long, warm hug," I murmured as I buried my head deep on the nook of her neck.Blondie was frozen in shock as my body was being pressed up against her, my chest was heaving up and down with my breaths. Slowly, her hands then went to my back, holding onto me there. She

TAYA's POV :"Dude! Where exactly are you? Your mom's been calling me and I've been covering for your ass all day," Hallee was yelling at the top of her lungs as soon as I picked up her call."I know, sorry," I whispered as I tiptoed away from the bed. "I'm with Blake,""You're with who?! What? How did that happen?""It’s a long story. I'll tell you later," I shushed her quickly as I stole a glance over to Blake, who was still sound asleep.It was almost 5 in the afternoon now. After we got up in the morning, Blake and I ended up staying around the resort, enjoying a wonderful brunch, spending some time at the beach, before returning back to the room to take a nap. He looked so peaceful and I couldn't help but notice his gorgeous features as he lay there sleeping."Is everything alright? You just up and left last night and you told your

TAYA’s POV :“I'm Blake Harrison, Taya's boyfriend," Blake said firmly as he stretched his hand out to dad."You're what?" Kai spat as the rest of the room went silent. I was like a deer caught in headlights. I didn’t know what to do or say."And since we're all here... I wanted to ask for your permission," Blake said again, looking to mom and dad. He moved a step over to me and his hand snaked around to grip mine."I would like to date your daughter,"I gasped instantly and Kai had the biggest shock on his face. Dad turned his head over to mom in confusion, who just shrugged and smiled at him. Dad then turned to me, then to Blake, and then back to me. He searched my face and I just smiled sheepishly at him, not knowing what else to do at this point.* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Hallee sighed dramatically as she pulled open her locker door."Yeah, winter break went by so fast," Gabe said, leaning his back against the next row of lockers."Think about it, in just seven months, we'll all be leaving for college," Hallee squealed as her eyes darted to the collage of NYU stickers all over the insides of her locker wall."Have you heard anything from NYU yet?" I asked her.Our play was a great success and she had sent in footage from our play as her portfolio in her application to NYU's Tisch School of the Arts.&nbs
Kissing the Bad Boy 49: The Break Even
TAYA’s POV :I’d walk up to him out on the bleachers. He’d put his earphones away once he saw me coming. Standing right in front of him, I’d give him a smile before taking the seat next to him."Hey Jude," I'd say to him like always."Hey Blondie," he'd beam at me with those cute dimples of his.Not gonna lie, I did entertain that thought for a second. I thought of going outside, finding Judah by his usual spot on the bleachers, wearing his signature denim jacket as he laid there under the warm sun. Those were some entertaining thoughts. But then I remembered something else that he told me once."When a guy really likes you, he won't be afraid to tell the whole world about you. Hell, he'd want to tell the whole world about you,"Those words struck a chord in me. I realized it now, if Judah really did like me,
