Darn it! He just never gives up, does he? Here he was thinking of using his team and coach as an excuse to escape playing for the volleyball team only for Jeremy to ask his coach for permission in his absence.

"He did? Why on Earth would you ask him that in my absence? He might think that I sent you to buy myself some free time and then give me an earful when I see him," Craig lied, rolling his eyes at Jeremy.

"I'm sorry. I didn't think of that. We'll get it sorted out later. So? What do you say? You'll play for us, right? For the school?" He asked, raising his voice.

"Craig is gonna play for the volleyball team? Really?" One student asked, looking at him astonished.

"Guys, Craig is gonna play for the volleyball team this weekend. Who wants to watch him?" A friend of Jeremy's said, attracting the attention of other students.

"Guys, listen, I haven't decided yet if I would play or...." Craig started to say but was interrupted but the students praising him for trying to bring honor to t

    Elena took a big bite of her sandwich and sighed. She was right about Silver still being mad at her. She couldn't blame her though.She was still mad at herself for saying something like that to Matthew when he had just told her about his feelings for her.She had been too shocked. Not shocked that Matthew had confessed his feelings for her, which had been pretty much obvious for a while, but she was still shocked that Matthew was no longer going to be with her and that it was all real.She still remembered when they were driving to the airport. She had thought that it was still a dream, that it was not real.She had been too dumbstruck at the airport, to shocked that he was really leaving that she had decided that it was best she pretends she doesn't have feelings for him and let him go.She was so stupid for doing that and she still chides herself for that every single day. She had just one more chance, just one and she blew it, resulting in her friendship breaking.Imagine her at t

    Gaby looked up at Craig from her meal. He was still smiling at them, giving her a look that said, "Can you please leave? It's urgent I need to talk to her."She nodded and looked back at Elena and tried to stand up but the look on Elena's face made her door back down.Elena's looked mad and kept staring at her food without even looking at Craig. Gaby sighed and shook her head. They were at it again. Elena and Craig were arguing with each other again."Hello? Gaby? Can you?" Craig said, motioning for her to leave."She's isn't going anywhere, Craig," Elena said quietly after a while."Why? I need to have a talk with you. She won't feel comfortable when we are talking in front of her. Let her go, she wants to leave," Craig said in an edgy voice." You sure are making her comfortable by insisting that she leaves. This isn't the first time she sits next to us while we have our conversations, if you really want to talk, have a seat. She's not leaving," Elena said staring Craig right in the

    "Gosh, can you ever let something go? I didn't mean to say it, I have never said it to anyone, I have never thought of it. It just slipped out, can you please let it go?"Gaby cleared her throat when he said that, trying to remind him that he had not just thought of it, but also voiced it out to her, not just once but several times that she had to shut him up from saying it.He looked at her and got what she was trying to tell him. He pleaded with her using his eyes to tell her not to let Elena know that he had said it to her several times."No. I never let things go, especially things like this. If word gets out about something like this, do you have any idea what that would do for me and my reputation? Everyone and I mean it, would not even try to understand my situation, no one would even bother to hear my side of the story.""I know that's why I'm trying to prevent it from....""You don't get it because you're a guy. If words spread that you were double dating, people would prais

    "Craig, I would like to all to this question one last time. What did you mean by what you said? First I'm unbearable, now I'm frustrated enough that I chase my friends away?""Oh great, play the victim. Take it to the extreme, You know that's not what I mean but if it makes you feel better, then you can look at it that way," Craig said, rolling his eyes at her. "Yeah. And You know what else would make me feel better? You leaving," Elena said with anger.Elena glared at him angrily. She was already tired. She was never satisfied with what he gave her, she never wanted to be in a relationship like this, a cheesy relationship where she gets flowers and gets treated like a fragile person.Matthew was right all along. He was the one who knew her most and had told her that he knew that she doesn't like her relationship with Craig but she had stubbornly stuck to the relationship.She was really angry not just at Craig but also at herself because in a way he was right. She had pushed Matthew

    "No," Elena said quietly after a while."No? No what? I don't understand you," She said, staring at her with a confused look on her face."No. As in, I didn't date Craig to get over Matthew. I was just too excited when he asked me out and again, he asked me out in front of everyone, how do you expect me to say no? Besides back then I thought he was cool and hot, I didn't think he would have a crappy attitude like this."Gaby stared at her in disbelief. She was really strange for admitting something like that to her face. How can she say she only accepted Craig because of people when he asked her out? That was fast worse than accepting him only to heal from her feelings for Matthew."You are joking, right? You know what you're saying right? Do you know what that makes you? A pick-me girl, someone who only craves boys' attention," Gaby said, looking at her, still shocked."It seems you don't really understand what I am saying right?""No, I don't. Please enlighten me. Do you mean that y

    "Thank you for not trying to do that," Elena said, smiling at her and sighing with relief.She had thought that Gaby was going to try and convince her not to leave Craig because she knows that Gaby and Craig were close friends with each other.She has also thought that Gaby was going to pick sides and when she does, that she was going to pick Craig's side because of how close they were but she was surprised to see that she didn't."Now that your relationship counseling class is over, what do you suggest we do? I know over and over that this class might have ended and that even if it has ended yet, we can't get inside the class," Gaby said after a while."I thought so too. I have no idea what we should do. What do you suggest? If we leave here, we might get punished by the homeroom teacher so I have no idea what we should do."She stood up from the chair and went to the door. She peeped through the window and watched as other students scramble to their classrooms."I think other studen

    "It's all right, Gaby. There's no need to be dramatic besides I didn't get worried too much," Elena said, smiling at her.Silver rolled her eyes at that statement and frowned her face, not even bothering to hide it.Gaby saw the look on her face and decided that she had to resolve the issue between Elena and Silver before they all leave the room."I know but you must have missed something," Gaby said, smiling at Elena." What is it? What did I miss?""Well you just told me not to be dramatic but I just wanted to point out who was it that is the drama queen, the dramatic person in this room," Gaby said, smirking at her."I know what you want to say, honey, but it isn't me that is the drama queen and we both know that," Silver said, sticking her tongue out at Gaby."Yeah, I know it isn't you. It's Elena, who else?" "Gosh and here I thought that you weren't going to mention my name,", Elena's said, rolling her eyes playfully at Gaby.Silver ignored Elena's statement and just cleared her

    "Hey Silver, y'all going home already?" Craig asked as he stood outside the classroom in front of the hallway waiting for Elena and Gaby.He had purposely decided to wait in front of the classroom for them because he knows that they wouldn't want to talk to him so he would apologise to Elena.He got unnecessarily mad at Elena and spoke some things which he should have said all because of the darn suspicion Sarah sowed in him.He watched as Silver smiled at him and nodded his head in satisfaction. Thank goodness, they haven't told her yet.Silver was the aggressive one among them and would get really mad if she finds out that he had accused Elena of double dating wherever intentional or not."Yes. Oh, I see why you asked," Silver said smiling at him and looking from him to Elena with a funny face, "You want to borrow her from us as usual right?""I'll go home with you, Silver. I don't want to be in the same space as him, " Elena said, glaring at Craig. "Why? What's going on? What happ

    Ria held Damien’s hand as they walked out of the old house. Ria took one last look at the house as they walked outside the house. Ria looked around and was surprised at the number of black cars in front of them.She easily recognized the dragon tattoo on the cars as the same one on Damien’s stomach. She allowed Damien to pull her towards one of the cars and the window was slowly wounded down.“Is it all taken care of?” a voice asked in the car and Damien nodded.“Yes, boss” Damien replied.“Hmmmmm,” the voice said.“Thanks, boss” Damien said his voice solemn.“Take care of yourself, Damien,” the voice said as the glass went up and the cars sped out of sight.“Who were those?” Ria asked and Damien smiled at her.“People you don’t need to pay attention to,” Damien said as he led Ria to the car and he drove off. Damien couldn’t express how he was feeling. He didn’t feel free, he was just calm and he tightened his grip on Ria’s hands as he drove toward his apartment.He had her beside him

    Damien rubbed Ria’s back comfortingly as he pulled her along and walked after the burly men. Ria watched as they led them to another part of the fighting ring.The area was surprisingly well-lighted and bright. There were rows of burly men with weapons making Ria latch herself to Damien.“He’s inside,” One of them said as Damien pushed the door opened and stepped inside the room.It was a large spacious office and there was a fan rolling as Damien and Ria stepped into the room. Three men were seated on the sofa in the middle of the office.“Damien, have your seat,” one of them said with a smile and Damien sat down and pulled Ria with him.“Mr. Lee, I have fulfilled our part of the agreement. I have as well also repaid my father’s debt. Isn’t it time to let me go?” Damien asked calmly as one of the men laughed.“It’s hard to let one of our strongest fighters go just like that,” he said and Ria frowned as she looked at the man disgustingly.“Just like that?

    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. She could only pray in her mind.“Don’t look like that, I’ll really be fine” Damien said and Ria nodded as she dropped a small peck on his lips.Damien tapped her nose as they walked out of the room. Everyone was yelling at top of their voices. He walked into the ring and raised his hands at the referee who checked him and Damien turned to his opponent. It was a young man who was a few years older than him. Merely looking at him, Damien knew he was the real deal. He chuckled lightly; these people had finally pushed him to the wall.He walked at Ria who was lookin
