last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56

ADRIAN'S POV

I didn't expect him to throw a punch but if there was something I knew he needed to do and had the right to do, it was to beat me up for what I did to him.

I didn't feel any bad probably because I knew I deserved it and I couldn't even bring myself to even stop him.

What pained me the most was the pain in his eyes, Austin was pained and I could see it. I beat myself hard inwardly, wishing I could return to the day before and undo what I did to him.

I liked him, I wanted him but not in a way like this. I didn't want to hurt him at all. "What was that? Why was he hitting Adrian like that?" I heard some of our classmates ask and I grunted.

"I was so shocked that I couldn't even move forward. That was unlikely of Austin and it seemed he cried before he left. What's going on?" Knight said as he moved closer to me.

I looked at my friends as I tried to say something to them but no matter how hard I tried to talk, nothing would come out and I was frustrated.

    ADRIAN'S POV"Austin never misses school and he always comes early. So, what's going on?" Tine asked Kelvin who shook his head worriedly. "I don't know either. We should go to him after our first class. I promised to help him submit his assignment." Kelvin replied and the two continued walking. It seemed they were heading to their first class of the day. Seeing that they weren't talking about Austin anymore, I had no reason to follow them and I already got the information I needed anyway. "What are you doing here, Adrian?" I heard a familiar voice behind me and I turned my head to see that it was Kun and Knight. They looked at me and frowned "You look dull, are you okay?" Kun asked and I nodded. "I'm okay," I said as I picked up the bag I had dropped on the ground earlier and walked to my class. I thought about visiting Austin at home but I knew that wouldn't help matters at all. I was certain that the last person he wanted to see at the moment was me and I hate to make him angr

    AUSTIN'S POVDifferent emotions overwhelmed me as I made my way home. I was lost and hateful at the same time. "You guys should go home, I want to be alone," I told Kelvin and Tine who seemed to be planning to go home with me. "What do you mean? You are not feeling well at all and you want to be alone? Do you think we can leave you like this and still call ourselves your friends?" Tine asked, shaking his head and making it known to me that there was no way they would let me be.I let out a deep breath as I stared at them. I knew it would be hard to get them to leave me but I needed them to understand that I wanted to be home alone too so I could sort out my feelings. "What about this? You are confused and messed up, right? Do you know the best thing to do at a time like this? It's to get yourself drunk. Shall we visit a bar?" Kelvin suggested but that only made my stomach churn aggressively. The thought of alcohol made my blood boil and made my headache bad. The imagination of it a

    AUSTIN'S POV "What do you mean you want to change your school? We are already in the second year and we have only two more years for this course. What do you think you are doing by saying you want to change school now?" Tine asked angrily. They seemed to be angry at the decision I had come up with and it was the same for me. I hated to be in this situation and I hated to be involved with Adrian in a dirty manner which was why I was going to change my school so I never have to see him again. "Remember what you said your mother wants? You need to be done with school on time so you can take over the companies!" Kelvin also advised but they wouldn't understand. If only they knew what happened to me, they wouldn't advise me to return to our school for anything but it was something I had to keep away from them at all cost. I wouldn't want them to see me as weird or crazy for what I did. "I don't care anymore. Mother would have to understand my decision." I said to them as we had finall

    ADRIAN'S POV Leaving his house, I made a call to my friends, telling them to meet me at our usual bar as I needed something to help clear my mind. I felt like I was losing my mind, hearing that he was going to leave the school because of me was painful and it made me want to do something to stop him but the only thing I could do was choose to leave the school for him so he would stay back in the school and graduate like he wanted to. I continued walking down the streets aimlessly until my phone started ringing. I brought out my phone to check who it was and I found out it was Knight. "Man, where are you? We are at the bar already waiting for you." He said and my eyes widened. I had forgotten that I had to be in the bar and I could only let out a deep breath "I'm sorry. I will leave now and meet you there in five." I said to him before ending the call. Right then, I stopped a cab that took me down to the bar and I saw my friends waiting in front of the bar for me. "Where were yo

    ADRIAN'S POV My eyes widened as I quickly turned to face Austin only to see that he wasn't bothered at all. He was only staring at the ground without saying a word. "What is this? Why isn't he clearing himself?" I heard Knight ask behind me and I nodded. "Tell me more, why isn't he clearing himself when it has got to this?" I asked back. "What are you talking about? I asked why you ain't clearing yourself when he was the one who threw the punch first and you never retaliated. You could have beaten him back but you didn't, wasn't it because of this?" Kun asked as he moved closer to me... He was whispering though, low enough for me to hear and not others. I let out a deep breath "I misunderstood you guys. There is no way I can do that because the whole thing is my fault to begin with." I replied and they frowned. "What are you guys doing? I just said you should explain what happened a few days ago. Won't you talk?" The professor asked angrily when he realized that none of us were

  • LOVE IN SHADES   CHAPTER 21: FEAR

    AUSTIN'S POV I wasn't expecting Adrian to say that to the professor at all. After he last yesterday, Kelvin, Tine and I thought about what he said and we all concluded that he was only blowing fables. He just wanted to say something to make him feel like he was a good person and I, more than anyone else knew that he was the worst person on earth. Adrian was someone I would stop at nothing to kill as I knew and was certain that he was the kind of person that didn't deserve to be on this earth. After what he did to me, the memories of the day I saw him stab my father kept replaying in my head, the look on his face that day, the stain on his clothes and the bloody knife he held in his hand. I mean, this guy was my best friend. He was someone I did practically everything with and someone who would always act as if he loved me the most on this earth. That day remained the saddest day of my life and I knew it would never change. That day, I lost not only my father but also my favourit

    AUSTIN'S POV "What do you think you are doing? I'm a guy!" I yelled at them as I tried to free myself. I needed to get away from them as fast as possible. They both laughed as they watched me struggle "So what? You are a guy but you are handsome. It's not a waste to have you now and have that bitch later, is it?" The second man asked as he moved closer to me. "It is. It's a waste. I'm a girl lover. I'm straight!" I yelled again, hoping someone would hear my cries even though it seemed unlikely as they looked like someone who wouldn't leave any trace behind."We are too. We do girls but when an opportunity like this comes up, we don't waste it either." The second man said again as he grabbed my chin and lifted my face so I could look at his face. "You look good." He complimented me as he brought his face closer to mine and before I could say anything, he planted a kiss on my forehead. My body shook violently and the urge to kill overwhelmed me. The fact that he kissed my forehead

    AUSTIN'S POV"Aphrodisiac perfume?" I asked them with confusion on my face as I was slowly starting to feel hot too. The fat man nodded. "A strong one at that. We wanted to make that bitch lose her mind so she would crave for us and to do that, we wanted to be careful which was why we made it as a perfume. Now..." The fat man explained, he seemed troubled too. But more than that, I was feeling messed up and scared. I thought I was going to be free when I saw them being convinced by me but it seemed luck wasn't on my side at all. I turned to face the hot man who seemed to be slowly losing his mind and I let out a deep breath "We need to quickly do something about this. Free me so I can do something for you!" I said hastily, intentionally trying to make them feel like I cared about them. The short man turned to look at the fat man who seemed to be confused as well. "I should free you?" The short man asked. I nodded "You need to be fast. I'm feeling hot too so let's quickly leave he

    AUSTIN'S POV "Will you continue pretending? It doesn't cost me anything to destroy you, you know? With a phone call, your entire family will be eradicated from this country without a trace, you know, right?" I asked, my eyes piercing through her. What was she thinking in her bony head? Did she expect me to believe her just because she was acting cute? Sincerely, her actions only irritated me more...For someone who was tricky and filled with dirty thoughts like her, she would never gain my sympathy. This wasn't even about her age. She clocked 19 today, which meant she was an adult already. So, she should know what was wrong and right. She staggered backward, and her face turned pale. She looked at me with fear in her eyes, "I will tell you the truth," Her voice was low and cracked. I crossed my arms and glared at her, "Go on," I ordered. She swallowed and lowered her eyes, "My friends have always been talking about how fun sex is. They would talk about their boyfriends and how t

    AUSTIN'S POV I helped him to the car and we drove home. Getting home, five maids were waiting anxiously at the door, surprising me. "What are you doing here?" I asked, staring at the maids. The maids looked at us and bowed their heads, "Young Master, you rushed out of the house without saying a word to anyone. We thought something had happened and were anxious," one of them replied. Hearing that, I rolled my eyes and walked past them. As much as I wanted to tell them, it was alright, my anger was higher, and I couldn't bear to talk nicely to anyone. I entered the house and led Kelvin to my room. "You should relax here," I told him. He looked shaken, but fortunately, he was no longer crying. He nodded and picked up a towel before heading toward the bathroom. While he was in the bathroom, I quickly picked up my phone to check Knight's house. Not long after, Kelvin returned from the bathroom. I had already prepared casual wear for him, which he put on and lay in bed. "I should fee

    AUSTIN'S POVLaying in bed, my mind was filled with the thought of what to give Adrian on his birthday. He would be having his 21st birthday in a few days, and I had nothing in mind yet. I could have asked my friends, but then, none of them knew Adrian as much as I did, and I knew he would prefer something that showed how much I cared about him. Yet, that was the problem I had at the moment. Preparing a gift for him wasn't difficult, but showing how much I cared was the issue. If I were to measure how much I love and care about him, buying him the world wouldn't even be enough!I rubbed my hair and rolled around in bed. It was my first time facing so much trouble because of birthday gifts~I bit my lower lip and closed my eyes. Ticket to an exclusive novice cinema?A set of newly released sneakers?A trip?Group vacation?Identical robot?There were so many suggestions, but none of them looked good enough, and it troubled me. Buying something for Adrian looked like he was so rich

    KNIGHT'S POV "Yes, it's me," I replied, staring into his eyes. Truthfully, this felt like a dream to me, too. I never expected this sort of situation to come up, and even though I've dreamt about it so many times, I'd never held hope that my dream would one day come to reality. Yes, I'd been dreaming of being together with Kelvin for a very long time. It wasn't love at first sight. It was more like love amidst hate.My heart started beating for him when Austin and Adrian were kidnapped. I and Kun were very worried about Adrian, and so were Austin's two friends, Kelvin and Tine. While Tine was able to stay strong despite the fear and worry, Kelvin was unable to. I caught him crying in the school's bathroom so many times, and there were times he would place his head on his desk and start crying. He was vulnerable, and even though I knew I was vulnerable too, I still felt the urge to wipe his fear and comfort him. I would think of him every night after that. I would see myself comfo

    KELVIN'S POVThe day of the party finally came, and here I was, sitting alone amidst strangers. Tine and Austin refused to come with me, and according to them, they had too many assignments to do. It was still acceptable that Austin had a lot to do. Apart from his father's companies, he still had his modeling job and his shooting training. He had so much to do that I felt bad for him and didn't even try to convince him to come with me, but what about that useless Tine that had nothing to do? That punk literally sleeps all day!Yet, he told me he had somewhere to go with Austin and refused to come with me. Wait, there must be something wrong with him these days. I knew he was always attached to Austin and would rarely leave his side, but that was getting too much these days. Could it be that the two are planning something that I had no idea about?Or could something be wrong with Austin?The thought of that made me scared and worried~ "Kelvin!"

    TINE'S POVI immediately drove down to Austin's house, and as expected, I saw them playing a video game. I knew that was what they would be playing as it was one of Austin's favorites, but I was still very bothered. "Tine, you're here," Austin only looked at me briefly as he said. He was busy playing, and the urge to not lose could be seen in him.I nodded and walked over, sitting beside him, "You've won twice," I commented. I'm totally ignoring both Jason and Adrian. None of them was important. Austin smirked, "You should know none of them is as good as me," He boasted, and I laughed. "Can you continue the game for me? I need to check what's on fire," He said. My eyes twitched, "You're cooking?" I was a bit surprised. Austin hated to cook~He shrugged and stood up, "The maids had to clean the family house, and I wanted to entertain my guests. So, I decided to cook," He explained. "I told you I should be the one to do it. You and I know how bad of a cook you are," Adrian butted

    KELVIN'S POVSeeing how angry Knight made me feel like something was wrong with his head. His sister might be cute, she might make me smile at times because... Damn! She's indeed cute ~However, She isn't my type. Yes, Abby isn't my type.Since I've grown enough to fall in love with someone and spend a few years of my life with them, I've grown to have a deep interest in intelligent people. Not just being intelligent but also smart, cool, good-looking, reliable, and most of all... Able to ignite deeper feelings inside me. With all these things, Abby is indeed intelligent (enough for her level), not that smart but manageable, cool but somehow childish, good-looking, let's forget about the reliable part, but she had never ignited any deep feeling inside me before. True, I love seeing her. She was the kind of person who always put a smile on my face whenever I saw her, but that was only because she was adorable. Among all the people I've met, there were indeed intelligent ones that m

I'm already at the house," I told her.Her expression changed a little and the happiness in her eyes dimmed "Son, do you really have to do this? I don't like you working so hard when you are still so young," She tried to persuade. We'd talked about this more than ten times already."I'm not young anymore, Mum. I'm 22 already and I have to work hard. I will start my internship in a few months too, I'm an adult already," I replied and rolled my eyes "Austin is only 21 and he's already working so hard. He's so rich that he could make my dad bow for him, you do remember that I'm still a year older than him, right?" I asked, staring at her.My mother shook her head "You can't compare yourself with Austin, Son..." Her eyes widened and she quickly covered her mouth. "Hey, I didn't mean that, you know?"I stare

He walked over to me with a smile on his sinfully handsome face which always asked for a punch.The only person who could beat Jason in terms of good looks was Austin!Darn it!I felt the urge to slash that face right now!"Adrian, What's up? What are you doing here?" He asked, his voice was soft and welcoming, adding to my anger.I sucked in a deep breath and pocketed my hands "Oh, I'm here to meet Austin," I replied.
