Bella's POV "Be.. Be my tutor" Peter pleaded. What? I least expected that"Please Be My Tutor" He repeated and went on his kneels... Practically pleading.. "Huhh" I don't get it. His tutor or I should just teach him mathematics; only this topic that he doesn't understand. "Bella, I don't wanna fail" He muttered like a kid. "Please get up already" I told him. "Nah I won't until youagree to be my home tutor" He said. "Huhhh?" "Please Bella""Please get up and let's talk it out.. it's just so sudden" I said and he reluctantly stood up."I never said I wanted you to fail" I resumed... Of course, I'm not his enemy of progress.But... "Do you indirectly agree to be my home tutor?" He asked me. "Peter, Home Tutor?" "Yeah?" "Shouldn't it be only preparation towards the upcoming test?" "Well.. I'm a dull student when it comes to mathematics in general" He paused and stared at me."I literally do not know anything in mathematics, I've only been trying to cope. Now I've found you, I'
Bella's POV "What is it Peter?" I asked him when we were out of the Cafeteria. "Vincent and Francis would come to my place this Evening" He said. "What? Why?" "For a sleepover" He said and my eyes almost bulged out of the socket. Wait! So they must not see me there.So I won't be able to cook dinner this night and breakfast tomorrow morning.Besides that, I won't be able to teach Peter mathematics this night. "What do you mean by Vincent and Francis are coming to your place for a sleepover?" I asked him avoiding to use the word "Our Place" "Well it's about Mathematics, the test is tomorrow you know? And we've come to a conclusion that you would teach me tonight. But the thing is my friends do not understand the topic also" Peter said. "Okay.. so I...you are trying to say that I would teach the three of you tonight" He nodded. "Peter, did you already tell them that I live with you?" "No, no.." "So what are planning to do? What are you trying to insinuat?" "I really want to
Bella's POV.. I arranged the house and prepared a fast meal for the five of us, Peter, Francis, Vincent, Francisca and I. I prayed silently that this dangerous plan should work out and I know it will as far as Monica is not coming here. Yeah, I already told Peter to not invite her and he said he won't. Just then, the door bell rang, I guessed that they are here already.. I stood up immediately to open the door for whoever is at the door..like I always did. "No" Peter blocked my way. "Why? Your friends are at the door" I told him. "I know right" He said. "Have you forgotten that you are to pretend as if you a visitor" He whispered into my ears. "Oh" I mouthed then went back to sit on the couch. I let Peter go attend to the door.. now it looked more like I'm a visitor here and as if i probably got here earlier before them. It was indeed Francis and Vincent. These two behaves like twins, plus Peter Triplets. "Wow you got here very early" Vincent said. "Well about few minute
Peter's POVThe door bell rang... And we paused."Who else did you invite Peter?" Bella asked me."Urrh, nobody. Did any of you invite anyone here?" I asked the rest of them and they shooked their heads in negation."Not at all""No"They all said."Then who is that?" I wondered as I stood up to get the door.The bell rang again.."Why are you keeping me waiting in the cold? Open the door already! " We recongized the voice right away.Monica!"That's Monica" I exclaimed."Monica?" Bella remarked...."You are keeping her waiting" Vincent said and I placed a palm on Bella's shoulder and muttered."Please calm down" she nodded in a scared way..I left the dinning room to open the door for Monica."Hey Baby" She said to me and pecked me on my cheeks and I gave her a sheepish look and wiped off her kiss..She was putting on a red sleeveless blouse on a pencil jean which made look more s*xy probably. Well she's fashion conscious."Is everyone here already?" She asked me."Monica, how do you
"Can we have a little chat?" Francis asked her. Although she was very tired and sleepy, she was still eager to hear what her crush wants to say to her. Without hesitating, she returned and sat next to him. "What is it Francis?" She asked; half asleep, half awake. "Hmmn" He hummed and bit his lips while he stared at her. "Thank you" He said.. "I... I mean for.. the tutor" He stammered. "You are welcome. Is that you wanted to say?" Francisca said, probably if she wasn't sleepy at this moment she wouldn't have said that, but she is still anxious to hear him out. "I ... I ..didn't know you are this cool. You know, Hmmn we are literally having an intimate dialogue for the very first time" He said to her and she nodded and muttered: " I know right" Actually, this was what happened, when Francisca first came to their school, they bumped into eachother while Francisca was still tryna get settled and get used to the school.. ever since then, the spark arises between them but no one was
Bella's POV "Boo!" Francisco tapped my shoulder from behind. I turned to her; smiling wildly."How was the test?" I asked her."It was very awesome. Thanks to you" She said."What about you?""Not bad as well," I told her and she smiled then she said; "What a relief""Uhn, why did you say that?""I didn't see you write anything, your head was on your desk. I thought something was wrong with you, I kicked your seat but I couldn't even get your attention " She said."Oh," Oh My God I was so engrossed with looking at Peter."I was already answering the test, so I..errm took a brief diverted reflection " I told her then I saw Peter walking towards me."Uhm... Francisca, let's go to the library" I stood up and told her..holding her hands already; to make her feel how urgent I wanted to leave the classroom at that moment."The library? Why?""Because errm... I have never been there. I mean I have but that was during the school tour" I said looking at Peter as I spoke to Francisca."Oh,
Bella's POV As usual, we took our seats in the cafeteria, I acted as if everything was normal but looks like Francisca didn't still believe me...while we were eating our meal, she kept staring at me suspiciously which made me feel uncomfortable.I just had to break the silence by starting with an entirely different topic but Francisca interrupted me before I could even speak. "Uhm...are you hiding anything from me Bella?" She asked me. "Uhn, no. Why did you ask again?" "Hmmm, never mind. I mean I'm just concerned; about being your only friend." She said. "You and Francis, yesterday...or wait is it this morning, it started. Tell me already" I urged her. "I told you before Bella, I really don't know. I mean I slept off last night" She said then she started into the space and said; "But hold on..." "What is it?" "After coaching him last night, he said he wanted to speak to me; that was when I napped off " "You don't remember anything else?" "I do not
Bella's POV "Do you live in Peter's house then?" Francisco asked me. I was dumbfounded for a while. "Bella" She called out my name. "Yes I am..." I stuttered.."I am living with Peter" I finally confessed. "What? you know, I sort of had that hunch but I never want to believe.." She said but I looked at my feet, kinda panicking. "Why are you living with him?" She questioned me... I began to bit my finger but before I could say a word, she blurted; "Wait! Couple's life?" "No Francisca" I muttered "Yes, you guys are of course; no couple. If you live with Peter, then why won't you..." "Francisca, keep it a secret please. Jeez! I don't have the nerves to tell everyone yet" "What secret? What don't you have the nerves to people? Is it that you and Peter are living a couple's life whenever his parents are absent?" She said again. "No, no.." I shook my head. "Then what..." "I.... I am Peter's housemaid" I finally confessed to her. "What?" She exclaim
EPILOGUEFast forward**************Peter’s POV.“Dude,What’s the use of a scalpel? ” Vincent asked.“Dissection. Meet Tyler, he will explain better” I replied.“Why? Are you going somewhere? ” He asked.“Yeah” I answered while taking few books off the table.“You wanna see some babes”“Shut it” I fired back.“I’ll like to come along, I might be of help you know? ” He teased.“Darn it, take care of yours first”“And when will you get one? ” Vincent asked.I smirked.“Listen Dude, I’m hungry” I said.“While I just had my lunch”“See yah later then” I said and left. I met Tyler here in college, yeah! We are studying the same medical course with Vincent while Francis chose something entirely different in another college. Of course, he gained admission into the same school his girlfriend chose. That's what me and Bella decided two years ago but we didn't talked about it further. We didn't mention any college. So I don't know where she's at, neither does she know where I am.I wish I d
Peter's POV I received several calls from extended family and friends. Delivery men came knocking on my doors, passing presents sent to me because I already told everyone that they don't have to come over here. "This private birthday is just perfect" Bella exclaimed just after we cut the cake. "You think so too?" I asked, shoving a piece of cake into her mouth and she did the same to me. "Yeah, it seemed like both of us are us are left alone in this world" She said. I agree. "You told me to get prepared earlier. For what?" I asked. "Oh that. You are getting a birthday gift from me!" Bella said. "Oh wow. You insisted on getting me a birthday gift even when I told you that you are the best birthday gift ever" He said. "Yeah. You said that. So I'm giving myself to you" She responded. "Huh...what Bella, I ... didn't mean it that way" I stuttered. She bursted into laughter : "I don't mean it that way too. You little boy with a naughty mindset!" S
Bella's POVI'm not a night owl, the last time I stayed awake in the middle of the night was during the examination season. But this time around, I was only busy with my boyfriend and I was planning to have a french kiss with him. I returned to my room. My heart was still beating really fast, I touched my cheeks, I could feel it reddened and hot. I tossed on my bed as I began to recall the whole scenero, I didn't know that it'll make me so nervous. His simple touch, made it look like we were in a romance mood. I kinda love that feeling though. Somehow, I wish we completed what we've started even if it's just the french kiss and intimate cuddle and maybe the romance. I picked up my phone, hissing at it because it ruined that mood. I've forgotten that I was the one who set the alarm. I smirked and unlocked my phone. I noticed that I have a message. Haven opened it, I found out that it was from my mom. ~'Flora is here. Come say Hi to her tomorrow' It reads. Huh
Peter's POV Vincent left shortly after Monica has gone. Obviously, he came here because of her. Looks like everything is settled now, afterall Vincent and I spoke casually, we talked about other random stuffs before he left and it doesn't look like he was still mad at me. Bella, Francisca, Francis and I had the best time of our life. Well, Bella and her best friend, Francisca were gisting while Francis and I were together. Until, it was getting late. We heard to depart. They wished me a happy birthday in advance again and that was when I noticed they had gifts for me. Awwn.. After the F couple have left, I called driver Joe, who came to pick us up. * * * We got home late in the evening, Surprisingly, Mom already cooked the dinner, we only ate a little because we were already filled up haven enjoyed ourselves to the fullest earlier at the restaurant. "Let's spend my birthday Eve together" I told Bella, when we were just about to retire to our rooms.
Peter's POV Then I sighted Vincent, standing at the entrance and watching us from there. "Vincent" I muttered. "Where is he?" They all turned to look at him. And then, he started walking towards us. My heart was racing a little, I was afraid that Vincent might ruin this special day maybe that's why he agreed to come here even when we aren't in good terms. "Hi guys" He said to all of us when he came closer. "Hello, Hi Vincent" We responded back. He smiled widely instead.. "Happy birthday in advance Peter" Vincent stretched his hands towards me for an handshake. I hesitated a little before recieving it. He had an handshake with the rest before he took his seat, beside me on my other side. "As... err.. as I was saying before you came in, order whatever you want. All bills are on me" I repeated, signaling the waiter to come over and he did. We ticked the menu lists, gave it to him to go bring our orders. "Did you invite Monica?" Vincent su
Peter's POV Since our parents knew that Bella and I were back together again, they left us alone to have our nice time while they spent their own nice time in their room. Bella and I were preparing for the outing, the time we fixed was in the next an hour. Bella wasn't aware that I ordered a very beautiful outfit for her and we were expecting it that morning. Talk of the devil, we heard a knock on the door and the visitor announced that he was the delivery Man. "Go get it. The order isn't for me. " I gestured to Bella. "I didn't place any order too. Probably your parents" She replied. "No, they didn't" I smiled. "Just go get it" I told her. She looked at me suspiciously as she walked to the door to meet the delivery Man. I came closer to watch the scenero. "Hello, I think you've got the wrong address" Bella said to the delivery Man and I chuckled inaudibly. "No. I'm at the right place. One Miss Bella Daves placed this order" He said. "What
Bella's POV We did not stop kissing until we heard some footsteps coming, probably close to us. He held my hand and gently pulled me to his room. I bit my lips, smiling and blushing. I touched my cheeks as I could feel it hot and red. Peter was smiling widely too. I wanted him to speak first but right now, I was so shy. Then He coughed in an awkward way then finally said something; "I miss you Bella" "Me too. I miss you" I replied. "Well... obviously. We went through alot. So we didn't have time for us" He said,holding my hand and intertwining it with his. "I'm sorry..." I wanted to apologise again but he interrupted me by placing his finger on my lips and I smiled. "I'm sorry about your father's death issue" He said."It's okay. Now I believe that whenever you say everything will be fine, it different will be" I told him. "Exactly" He replied. "I have alot to say to you. It's been piled up in my mind" "Spew it out. Talk to me every now
Bella's POV "Peter" I called his name after he has taken some steps away. He stopped walking but he didn't say anything. He didn't even turn to look at me. I didn't know where to begin, so I kept mute. He wanted to leave again, so I began to spew out my heart. "Peter I'm sorry. Stop avoiding me and talk to me!" I said and began to cry but he scoffed like he didn't care. "Peter!" I screamed his name. That was when he turned to look at me. "Is it high time we communicate now? No, I don't think so" He smirked. "I'm sorry" I repeated. "Okay. I'm glad your father's killer has been found. It's been making you worried. That's all I have to say to you" He said. "Peter" I muttered, moving closer to him slowly. "What is it Bella?" He asked. "Are you mad at me? Why?" I mumbled. He sighed heavily. "Yes, I am mad at you. I'm super mad at you. First, you totally believed my parents must have killed your father" Peter said. "No - I... " I stam
Monica on the other hand, Speaking of Monica, haven sobbed and sobbed over her broken family, she decided to start a new and better life. She started with apologising to the people she has offended, most especially Mrs Benson. Not only does she wanna apologise, she also wanna stay alone in her own lane. She doesn't wanna associate with anyone thereafter. She took a deep breathe in, let them all out before summoning up the courage to knock on the door. Since she didn't get a response at the first knock, she hesitated to knock again. She wanted to leave, she thought they'll resent her but Bella opened the door just when she turned to leave. "Ah... Hi" She stammered nervously, remembering that she owes Bella an apology too. "Hi" Bella responded sheepishly. "Err.. is everyone at home?" Monica asked as she walked in slowly. She was so scared of meeting The Bensons, she thought of what they might think about her. "I'll go announce to everyone that Mr Withney
