Maid To Be 36
The chill of the water sunk into my skin, for a moment drowning the sting I felt seconds ago. I grabbed more water from the kitchen sink into my cupped hands, washing the tears off my face, while more threatened to pour out. What exactly is it about this guy that pulls and calls me all the time? I ought to have learnt my lessons by now, yet, for some reason, I have chosen to be stubborn over again, ignoring the messages passed to me. The tears rushed to my eyes once more, the pain of his words stinging my heart.I swallowed hard, wanting to think about anything but that particular person. That same person who gets a hold of me now and then, who gets me wanting to figure out more.How could I have been so foolish?.....All this while, he was only using me, and even compared me with them.I was nothing like them. Maybe you are. My subconscious said. "You better be quiet" I said out loud. "Nia" The call my of my name, snapped me out the swirl of thoughts, eyes peering out the kitchen

It was the start of a new week, and I was more than glad to resume school. I had pretty much adapted to Greenville High, and everything seemed about normal now. The past few days that came, I tried my best avoiding Cameron. Be he in the living room, I would proceed to clean up another place. I even begged Denna once to help me clean his room, all because I avoiding running into him. She passed on a suspicious look, when I pleaded with her to clean his room, throwing ninety nine questions at me, as to why I didn't wanna clean his room, and I just lied. After much pleas, she finally agreed to it. I did succeed in avoiding him for the weekend, and I only hoped it would go on. Here I was now in school, praying I wouldn't run into him, not even his back. Students were scrambling about in the hall, and seeming like a proper student, I joined in. I made way to my locker, prying it open to grab some books, and right then I heard a voice behind me. Bright long hair and light brown e

The day seemed really long. Eyes glancing at my wristwatch once again to know the time, as every part of me was eager to get off this seat. Miss Clara, the history teacher wasn't even helping matters at all. At every word she uttered I could feel myself zoning out. I was over here in History class, and I must say it's the most ear-aching subject I've ever taken. Glancing at the students around me, some appeared to be sleeping off, some peered out the window, out looking the field ahead, others conversed with whoever was nearby, anything but paying attention to the history teacher was done at this very moment. The sound of the bell rang, got every student up their feet, a sigh escaping my lips at the save of break hour. Students hurried out of class at once, Miss Clara yelling for us to take a stop, yet, no one seemed to pay the woman any attention. Break hour meant break hour. Not even the authority of a teacher could stop the feet of food-longing students. "Don't forget your A

I walked into the Williams mansion, and at once I took notice of the figure of Cameron in the living room, a glass in his hands, while he gulped down the lot of drink in it. He turned to me the instant I walked in, eyes lingering on my figure. For a moment, I was glad to find him there. I sure needed to talk to him about what he said in school, cause ever since what happened, that very moment was all I thought about. "Cameron" I called his name, moving towards his figure. He paused at the sound of my voice, eyes staring on at me. "I know you weren't serious about the whole prom thing" I began, taking a brief pause in between my words "but I just wanted to thank you for saving me from that humili....." "I was being serious about it" He said interrupting me. "I meant what I said" He added. "You thought I was kidding?" He asked immediately. "Well I thought you asked me just to save me from.... You know.... Savannah and her friend" I spoke quietly. At my utterance, he moved few s

Day of prom....I ran to and fro in my bedroom, heart thumping while I checked the time, realising I had a few minutes left.Cameron would be here any second, and I still wasn't dressed. I had just stepped out of the shower, body dripping wet, while a stack of clothes was laid on my bed. Could I at least get myself in check at this very hour, all confusion could return afterwards, but certainly not now. Snatching my red lace panties off the dresser, I placed it on immediately, pairing it up with my strapless red lace bra. Moving over to the mirror hung on the wall in my room, I stared blankly at my reflection, my eyes accessing every bit of me. I looked a complete mess—Hair scattered all over the place, water dripping down my skin, eyes looking weak, I seemed to have given all hope, not until the arrival of my mom left a bit in my heart. She took in the state of the room, eyes widening in shock. "I'll pick them up" I said at once. Turning to my figure sat right in front of the

Cameron's POV..... My eyes lingered on her figure just as she emerged in to the living room. The dress firmly holding onto her body, hair falling in place, and that smile she flashed to me every now and then......I was dazed at the sight in front of me, how good she looked. Gaze slowly shifting from head to toe, taking in every bit of her, the adornments on her was just enough for my eyes to behold. She flashed a smile my way, but I just stared blankly at her, watching on. "Oh darling, you look beautiful" Her mom uttered at once, at the sight of the girl in front. "Thanks" I heard her whisper. Moving closer to me, her eyes still remained in mine, perhaps awaiting a word from me. "Can we go now?" I said almost immediately, shifting on my feet. I noticed the smile on her face fading at once, while her eyes just stared on at me.Proceeding out of the house, I got into my car, a weak sigh escaping my lips the instant I was relaxed in the carseat. While Jordan was still around in

Nia's POV... We got to Greenville High not long after leaving my house. Schools covered in large coloured balloons, floating in the air, perhaps with the help of helium. A large decorated banner hung right at the front of the school, stating the occasion. Like us, some students were just arriving. At once Cameron and I exited the car, making our way into the hall where the event was taking place. Figures moved around every now and then, boys and girls who had their arms linked with each other's, came into view, as everyone appeared stylishly dressed. Stealing a glance at Cameron, his hands remained fixed in his pockets, while his gaze was placed ahead. I sure wasn't expecting him to offer me his arm, he sure wouldn't do that. I ought to have learnt that by now. Right outside the hall of the event, was a large table holding the pictures of Savannah and Ashley. A little crowd circled the table, people choosing their candidates, and voting for whoever they pleased to. "I'll be ri

"Where are you driving to?" I questioned, eyes staring at the road ahead, while Cameron directed the car to a route that sure wasn't leading to my neighbourhood. "Home" Followed his response."I thought, you were gonna drop me at my house" I spoke"You can stay at mine" He stated, turning to have a glance at me for just a second. "Why?" I said almost immediately. "It's late already, and I can't drive all the way to your place at this time of the night" He uttered, tone taking a slight raise. "Cameron you have to take me home" I said to him at once. "I can't turn over, Nia" "This isn't the first time you're staying over, so why make it a deal?""I'm in my prom dress. I can't sleep in this" I stated one out of the many reasons I refused going back to the Williams' Mansion. "What exactly am I gonna wear tomorrow?" I added."Don't worry about that""I'll get something for you to wear" He spoke up"And for the night, I can give you one of my shirts" I heard him say, while a little c
