Craig facepalmed himself, groaning mentally as he leaned on the wall. He was growing tired as each day passed, her acting weird, deciding to be friendly with him for a day and running off to Matthew another day.
“Elena,” he called out, rushing to meet up with her.
Elena didn’t bother to answer him, packing her books inside her locker before closing it and walking away.
“At least let me take you home,”

With loud music blaring from the car and him bobbing his head back and forth to it, by the time he got home, part of him being annoyed was now out of his body and he was feeling well. He had just entered when Gaby appeared from the stairs. “Someones asking for you.” She said and eyed him. “I’ve asked her to go into your room,” she added as he started moving towards the living room. He walked up to her, eyeing her before squinting his eyes, “are you mad at me?” He asked. “What’s a girl doing in our house that’s not Elena, or our school mate, or your friend and even dressed like that?

Why were you sounding like someone was about to kill you?”Gaby exchanged eye contact with Craig, looking back at Elena who already noticed them.“Did you call me because of him?” Elena asked, scrunching her brows up.“Nope. why did you say that?”“So why did you call me?

Sorry, I didn't hear you," she said, softly."Yeah..I figured, that's why I yelled your name," Matthew said as soon as he caught up with her.He lifted his finger and flicked her forehead."What's going on in this little head of yours that you couldn't hear me calling you?

She didn't sleep well last night because she was busy thinking about what Craig had said earlier and about Sarah's plans.She yawned as she dropped the comb. She didn't want it to look obvious that she didn't sleep well so she took a concealer from her table and rubbed some over her dark circles until it blended with her skin."Elena! Come downstairs, someone is waiting for you! " Her mom shouted and she groaned inwardly.It had to be Craig because she made no plans with Matthew for him to pick her up and judging by the time of her mom's voice, it was obviously him.She quickly dabbed her lips with some tissue and quickly grabbed her bags. She doesn't want her mother to interrogate him about their date last night."So? How was it? I heard you took her to some fancy restaurant. She didn't tell me that of course, I overheard her telling her friends, " Clara asked Craig as they stood in the sitting room waiting for El

Now I get why my friends keeps talking about it. Did you see the main lead, God, he looks hot as hell," Sarah said as soon as they walked out."It was fun, surprisingly," Matthew said softly."What do you mean by surprisingly?"

Wake up you sleepy head, it's Silver, " The voice said into her ears."Silver? What's up? Why are you calling me this early?" Elena said, finally opening her eyes."What's the tea, honey? I heard you and Matthew have somewhere to be today. Where is it?" She asked, sounding curious. "That's why you called this early? You woke me up from my sleep because of your curiosity?""What do you mean by early in the morning? Girl, look at the time. It's literally 9am in the morning.

Ria watched calmly as Damien wore his gloves. She had watched Damien fight two times after the first time he brought her to the underground ring and she knew how good he was. But considering that after today he wasn’t going to be fighting again; Ria felt weird about it.She knew these people weren’t going to let him go just like that but Damien had assured her that he was going to be fine so she couldn’t do anything about it.
