Chapter 31
”Ethan! Slow down” I begged,my breath coming out in a heavy gasp. He rolled his eyes but did what I said.
“Move faster lady. We need to get there before your boyfriend runs off with his girlfriend to the countryside” I glared at the back of his head. For some reason, Ethan thought that running in the morning would do me good, mentally but so far he's not right. I don't feel any better.
Also he Says that I should start seducing Mr Young, which I find it to be ridiculous but he's adamant. He even made me wear mascara and lipstick and forced me to style my hair. I was secretly glad that he's being such a good friend by helping me out.
When I reached my place, I took a cold shower and threw myself on the bed. Since it's the weekend I decided to work on the lyrics that I've been writing since last week. I opened my laptop and found a new email on
Chapter 32“Chloe.. ” It is like that one word breaks the trance that I’m in . He stood up from his sitting position.I run towards him, feeling as if he would disappear if I don't feel him. He stumbled back from the force, I buried my face into his chest. I don't care that he loves Alessa, he can't just forget me.“Chloe, I am sorry”“Do you remember me now?” I asked, tilting my head to see his face. He looked down at me with the sadness expression. My lungs are so heavy, It felt as though I couldn't breathe.“I never forgot you,” I laughed, happy that he remembered m
Chapter 33“You look gorgeous Chloe. Sebastian won't be able to take his eyes off you” I blush at the compliment. Grace is in my apartment and she's helping me get ready for my date with Sebastian. Turns out that Grace is a fun person to hang out with. She's a cat person like me, she loves reading and thinks Mr Young is hot. We have a lot in common.“It feels weird though. I mean Sebastian is my friend” I told her honestly.“He’s not asking you to be his girlfriend. It's just a date, Chloe. If you think that you can't like him after today, you can just end it”“Can I ask you something?” I asked, turning fully towards her. Her brown eyes lit up i
Chapter 34Sebastian and I had the best dinner. Our date first started off with good food which was quite satisfying. He's one of the best guys from our school. Proper and polite, never saying things that would offend someone. He's the best boyfriend one could ever wish for but he's not for me. Here's why: The moment he drives away from my apartment, all I want to do is run back and cancel our date, Mr Young solely the reason. I kept on picturing his sad, teary face. I couldn't focus on the date.“I had a great time tonight Sebastian. Thanks for taking me out” I unbuckled my seatbelt, and opened the car door.“My pleasure. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do” he says.&ldq
Epilogue 5 years later I made my way towards the big flat where my best friend lives with his many girlfriends. I am almost scared of walking into his expensive suite because I haven't had any good experience before since Ethan is a manwhore. At twenty three, he slept with several girls every week and often made them run away crying when he refused to see them for the second time. Today, though it felt different, there were no girls, instead the whole band was present. Blissful music with Ethan, Oliver, Jack, Brandy and Sebastian are now one of the most famous boy bands in the city. I hardly see them because they are always on tour. The only person who always called me daily is Ethan because he liked to annoy me. &n
Chapter 1His broad shoulders and the muscles that hid underneath his shirt are begging to be touched - his voice, that vibrates from his lips to my ears warmed all over my chest to my toes, and when he glared at every faces who dared to smile at him coyly, battling their eyelashes, I was utterly hooked with his charm - he was so perfect, from his flawless skin and eyes that put the honey to shame- it's irises with golden flecks swirling around so deep and so mysterious and when they look at you, it pierce through your soul and made you squirm in your seat, feeling all hot and bothered.“Far is foul,Foul is fair.‘Hover through the air and filthy air,” What does it mean? Anyone?” his perfectly curved eyebrows arched an inch, assessing every face for the answer. A hand from my right raises, Miranda Stewart smiled looking all proud and satisfied that she knew the answer.“Miss Stewa
Chapter 2Ethan and I shared music class and I had the most fun when he made me sing. Love and pain which are written on a small sheet of paper in a short sentence were the most beautiful art for me, When Ethan made me sing, I was fully aware of the words that escaped my lips, the experience was so intense and there were butterflies in my stomach everytime Ethan and I pretend to sing in front of a crowd.Currently, we were on our way to the local cafe, passing around casual talks and laughs, but most of our talks are always about lyrics and songs.“Ethan!” A blondie hollered from the corner booth when we walked in, Ethan instantly made his way towards the three guys motioning for me to follow him which I did.
Chapter 3“That is so amazing Chloe! Let's do it one more time and we can call it a night” Brandy cheered, Ethan gave me thumbs up and I began singing from the first verse. When the words start pouring from my mouth, I let myself lose in the music…“This is our last rehearsal,Are you ready for tomorrow Chloe?” Jack asked, putting his guitar in its Case.“I am a little nervous, it will be my first time on stage” It was the most honest response, my fingers were shaking from the nerves and I wasn't sure if I could enjoy tomorrow. Blissful soul - Our band will make its first performance tomorrow with the vocalist- which is me and Ethan constantly reminding me makes me want to crawl under the ground and stay there until the weekend passes.”You’ll be Fine, Chloe. We'll make sure of that. Aren't we guys?” Jack asked, receiving a nod and
Chapter 4Days come by so quickly when I am dreading it, it feels like the past five days flew by in a blur and suddenly I am on the backstage with my bandmate- If we are even considered one.The songs that we had rehearse for tonight were mainly Kacy Musgraves and Lady Antebellum.Ethan, Brandy, Jack, and Oliver were the only guys that I find myself comfortable with besides Bibi and Mr Young , solely because we were in sort of a band and Mr Young is my landlord. But the stares and the gawking that I've been receiving tonight creeps my skin out, it makes me uneasy and the urge to vomit overwhelmed my senses.“Are you okay? You look like you just swallowed a watermelon” Jack placed reassuring hands on my shoulder, I jumped a little.

Chapter 30There was a loud knock on my door but I ignored it. I couldn't recall how long I've been locked away in the confines of my room nor did I care. My stomach grumbles with hunger almost to the point of hurting but I welcome it. The pain on my stomach is nothing compared to pain in my chest, Damien might as well tear my heart into bits with his bare hands. What went wrong with us? Why is he not talking with me!? The more I think about it, the more I’m mad at him for treating me this way. The least he could do is explain what happened.I sat up feeling mad and hungry, I knew I would regret it later but my fingers are already stroking the keyboard, typing out my frustrations and the words that I've been meaning to write ever since I woke up. I typed out all the crappy lyrics pouring out of my soul and crying oc
Chapter 29I couldn't stop the shaking no matter how hard I tried not to, so I stood up abruptly making every head snap up to me. I cringed.“May I use the restroom?” I asked, looking down at my feet.“Raise your head up if you are talking to a teacher. It's disrespectful to look down” Came his hard, all too familiar voice. I may have look so weird with my behavior, I wished I had looked up on the internet and Google on 'how to behave in front of your ex-boyfriend who came back after he disappeared for two months' His voice held no emotion or any indication that he missed me, Of course, I’m crazy for even thinking about this.“You may go” he says fina
Chapter 28“Aunt, I'll be fine. Just be safe on your way back” I reassured her the upmteenth time this morning. Aunt Shirley refuses to let me live alone and as much I love being taken care of, I missed living by myself. And as for Mark, he left last week because he needed to go back home. I smiled thinking of how close we had gotten this past few months. I had returned to school just two weeks ago and people who I didn't even talk to before started talking, wishing me happiness and good wishes as if I had come back from the dead. It's exactly a month and fifteen days after the accident, but my mind is still on that day with him.“Honey, I'll be coming back if you don't pick up my calls” I laughed and pulled her into a warm hug not wanting to depart yet. If the accident taught me one thing, it's th
Chapter 27Beep. Beep. Beep.Monday morning is always the worst day to wake up. I hate that I have school in thirty minutes yet I can't seem to find the energy and the will to wake up and make breakfast for myself.I felt like I could hear Bibi meowing beside me but then when I listened to it more closely, it seemed to be sniffing and hiccuping. I wanted to open my eyes but I found that opening my eyes requires a lot of effort and energy. So, I settled comfortably on my pillow and decided to head back to sleep.It is a lovely dream. I saw my parents and I, playing around the park with my small puppy which my daddy brought me for my birthday. We were so happy, with dad and mom laughing while they wa
