In Kenji's bed, Hayley rested her head on his chest, her arm on top of his stomach resting. She thought she won't be able to be with him like this anymore, but here she is, in his bed with him.
"Can I borrow your clothes? I'm going to put mine on the--"
"Stay here a little longer. I missed you," he cut her off, wrapping an arm around her waist, his hand is warm. "I love touching you like this."
That cheeky smile on his face made Hayley sneer at him. She too likes it when he's touching her everywhere with his untamed hands.
"Nobody will take you away from me," Kenji told her, his eyes blazed with a different kind of flame she has never seen. "I would never let you go without a plan to take you back."
"That was real when you asked me to stay, right? But why did you take it back?" She wants to know what changed his mind.
"Your stupid reaction made me take it back. I didn't want you to pity me nor put my feelings first to what you tr
Shelby and George just got home and Carter had greeted them together with every maid and the butler. Then Shelby frowns noticing how Kenji isn't there to greet them. "Where's my son? Don't tell me he is still sleeping? Or did he go home?" She asked Carter while plastering a slight smile on her face, blinking prettily. "Young master is still in his room, ma'am but--" Shelby didn't hear it and marched towards the way which Carter immediately blocked. She narrowed her eyes at the assistant and then raised a brow. "What is your problem, Carter?" "Miss Hayley had stayed the night and I don't think the young master wants to be interrupted, Ma'am." Suddenly, Shelby let out a burst of evil laughter that echoed across the room. She had an obvious grin that she just can't hide. "Well then!" She brought her hands together, almost squealing. "Prepare lunch for our family! My prayers have been heard! And oh! Miss Gracey!" She smirks a
The next day, Hayley and Kenji decided to go to school together. There is nothing to hide anymore, Hayley doesn't care what anyone says. She has the right to be proud of her relationship with Kenji. Although almost everyone was looking at them as they walk the halls and stairs, Hayley had her head held high. Kenji had her hand in his and it just feels so nice. She glances at him and she can't help but think of how cool her husband is. Kenji walked her to her classroom and knowing their class, someone ran to report what they saw and now they're peeking through the door. "Text me if you change plans," Kenji told her. Hayley nodded and was about to turn around when Kenji grabbed her arm making her face him once more. She raised a brow and that is when he brought his face closer, kissing her forehead. Her classmates squealed and some yelled making her cheeks pink. "You didn't have to do that!" "I want to," he
Hayley was on her way to Kenji's usual parking area when a little far away, she saw Eren and Kenji talking so she immediately hid at a pillar. She should not be hiding but she's already behind a pillar so she'll listen. It took a while but she heard everything they talked about. And when she peeked and saw Eren left, she came out. Releasing a sigh, she walk towards Kenji like she had not listened. "Hey!" She greeted Kenji who was looking down. His eyes were lonely, he feels gloomy. "You alright?" "Yeah, all good." Kenji opened the door for her and she got in. She watched from the inside as he turns to the other side to get in. Although Kenji says he is alright, Hayley knows it hurts to lose a friend you've been with for years. Imagine having that one best friend you have had since freshman years and just when you're in the last year of high school, that friend just disappeared. The dreams you've built together, the happy memo
Before taking a step inside the house, Hayley inhaled and exhaled deeply, shaking both her hands. She has a lot to ask and say to Cassandra and she wants to be able to talk about it all tonight.She moved her feet, walked past the living room and headed towards the almost spiraling staircase where she met Cristy. At first, she thought Cristy would stop her but instead, she gave her a smile."Your mother and father are in their office. You might want to knock first before coming in," Cristy told her."Will do," she replied, glancing at the stairs and back to Cristy. "Thank you for not stopping me."Hayley gave Cristy a hug and then she proceeds to climb the staircase. It'll only be a family talk, she reminded herself. Well, she hopes it will be a family talk.Just as she was in front of the huge doors, she knocked. Before they allow her to come in, she already turned the doorknob and pushed the door, letting herself in. She saw how busy her parents
Kenji and Hayley decided to stop by a corner store in which they bought cold canned drinks and chips. Before drinking hers, Hayley rolled her can on her cheek where her mother had slapped her."Does it still hurt?" Kenji asked her as they started driving again."A little," she answers."Do you want to go to the beach?""The beach?" Her brows raised up at him. "At night? Are you serious?""Yes, I am. It's pretty cold so we probably won't go swimming, let's just enjoy the waves crashing on the sand. Maybe it will make you feel better.""That sounds fun," she softly said, smiling at Kenji.And so Kenji drove them to the nearest public beach.When they arrived, the cold wind was blowing making Hayley rub her arms with her hands. Perhaps the beach is a bad idea. But as soon as they both sat down on the sand, with Kenji back hugging her tight, she immediately take it back."Still cold?" he questions.&nb
Three school quarters had passed and graduation is just right around the corner for Hayley, Kenji and their friends. For Hayley, she's been worrying about her parents. Just after that night when she went to confront them both, since then, she has not heard of her parents. It's like overnight, her parents disappeared.Although everything is fine between her and Kenji, there's still that moment when she goes back to that night and wonders if they had cut her off or something. Don't get her wrong. It's actually nice to get away from her toxic parents but... they are still her parents."Are you still worried that they're not coming?"Hayley turned her head to the side and saw Kenji leaning against the rail like her. They're at the rooftop on a chilly night, drinking flavored beer for no reason."Knowing my mother, she's the type who wants an apology first before coming around. Cassandra loves playing the victim. So, I don't know," she answers, dri
As the graduation gets closer, Hayley never once thought that her parents are coming to march with her. But today, just minutes before the marching starts, her parents arrived, making her euphoric. "Mother!" she exclaimed, hugging Cassandra. To her surprise, Cassandra actually hugged her back and her father, Sam, smiled at them. How unusual, she thought, this could be because people were around. "I know we have fought but of course I will still come to your day! Congratulations, my grown lady!" "Does this mean, you forgive me for that night?" Cassandra leaned back slightly and cupped Hayley's face. Then she had a grin plastered on her face. Although her eyes were still lifeless and cruel, Hayley didn't want to ruin the day. "But of course I never planted any hate towards you, my subtle dear!" Then she turned her head to see Sam. "Why don't you join us, my love?" A big smile Sam gave before striding to hug them both. If you didn't know
At a sidewalk near Eleanor's apartment, Jasper kept glancing on his wristwatch, nibbling his lower lip thinking maybe he freakin' came too early. Today, they plan to go and camp somewhere far from the city. According to the damn Mafu, he said it has to be the outskirts of the city or maybe way further. It sounds creepy but Jasper has been liking Eleanor since their junior high school years and it's funny how his feelings never changed. Yes, it broke his heart when Eleanor started dating somebody and then she got pregnant and now has a child but still, his feelings just grew deeper. Eleanor was in love then, too in love. Was she so wrong? Is he wrong to love her? Some moments later, Jasper thought glancing at his watch will not help him so he walked towards the gate. He smile at the guard who knew him and the guard replied with a salute. Jasper climbed the apartment stairs. Once he is in front of the door, he sucks in air and blew it out, raising h
