Leo King is that unexpected character with so many surprising layers that even shocked me too while I was writing him as well. No one would believe that a notorious playboy like him can be this sweet and intelligent and so endearing, but he is. And I am so glad that he is one of my MLs in the heartfelt stories I always strive to keep on telling. He is a safe space for Diane, and I love him too. I love him so much. Please if you love him as well, I would love to see it in the comments. Thank you so much once again for reading this book of mine.✿ ♡
‘Freedom is priceless.’ –UnknownDIANEMONDAYI wake up with a soft groan to the annoying but loyal sound of my alarm, my ever conscious time reminder. I cup my mouth as I yawn, tossing from one side to the other on my bed.After that tense, emotionally charged conversation I had with Leo on Saturday morning, he left to go see his best friend Ren, and I worked on expanding the concept of the game. Throughout the entire time I spent on the character sketches, I kept feeling so relieved. So featherweight. Leo really paid attention to me throughout the entire session that I just kept talking and talking, and even though I later got caught up in the moment and tried to kiss him, he pulled me back to my fucking senses, despite the clear indication I saw written all over his face showing that he wanted to kiss me too.But I am glad it did not happen. He saved me from complicating things between us. It is funny how I am the one who almost tried to mess up our agreement that I instituted in t
DIANE Few minutes later, Leo is done making the coffee, and he pours two cups for himself and for me. He brings the coffees closer and settles the mugs down on the countertop before he sits down on the opposite stool from across the countertop, directly facing me.Just as I pick up the mug containing my coffee, I notice that he is staring at me again, but as soon as I look up, his eyes flick away.Please Leo, please stop doing this to me.“I made tacos.” He says after a sip. “You are welcome to have some for breakfast before we leave, if you want. They are right there near the coffee machine.” He finishes, pointing towards the coffee machine.I follow the direction of his pointing finger and discover the tacos sitting pretty on a ceramic plate near the coffee machine.I take a quick little sip of my coffee. “Thank you,” I keep the mug down. “I will have some.”Just as I try to stand up to my feet, Leo stops me and lets out a sigh that I can't quite attach any reason to.Is something
DIANEMy classes for today just keep dragging on and on. During the short breaks in between, Crystal and I tried using the time to discuss a bit about how far each of us has gone in sketching the characters individually for the game competition. I am so glad that Crystal is my partner. She is so serious with this.Eventually, Crystal and I, with the rest of the other students, survive the last class for the day. To be honest, the only thing that kept me going through them all was the pleasure of distracting myself with my mind wandering off to Leo from time to time. During those times, the lecturers’ voices just fade away, becoming a mere low echo to my ears and inside my mind.I didn't care. Afterall, I still branched out once in a while and caught onto some important things that were taught. Now that classes are over, Crystal and I leave the classroom, and unlike before, Dante didn't disappoint us today again by not coming to school. He is in school today, and on our way walking to
‘Friendship improves happiness and abates misery by doubling our joys and dividing our grief.’ –Marcus Tullius CiceroDIANEGosh, I know I might sound cruel, but I feel like dragging her hair and enjoying her wail in pain.“How could you leave me like that?” I whine, throwing the question at her with a sigh. “It wasn't fair.”“Dee, I had to really go pee. Come on, just tell me already. What happened between the both of you while I was absent?”I sigh again. “He asked me out,” I admit with a shrug. “We’re going on a date this Saturday.”Crystal’s eyes widen, almost like her eyeballs are trying to pop right out of their sockets. A broad, happy grin spreads across her face. “Oh wow! That’s exciting Dee. You should totally go for it. You and I know he has been on your case for quite some time now. You might just find out that you will enjoy being with him and maybe, things can charge up from there.”“Maybe, I guess.” I roll my eyes, trying to wand off any hopes and expectations. “
TASHA"Shit Jason! Right there! Fuck me harder! Fuck!"I halt in my tracks, the familiar female voice chilling my blood to ice. The air in my lungs evaporates the instant my eyes land on the half naked bodies of the two people I thought were my best friend and boyfriend fucking each other's brains out like their lives depend on it."Keep your voice down Diane, someone might hear you.""Shut up Jason and just fuck me!"My vision starts to blur. Everything in my head and around me starts to spin. I want to shout, but I feel like I am in this weird dream where only the loud moans of Jason and Diane are permitted to be heard and listened to.I try to force my legs to move, but I am pinned to where I stand. Jason is naked from his waist downwards, banging his dick right into Diane's cunt on the brown mahogany desk in the center of the empty physics lab. Diane, my fucking ass best friend, has her breasts slamming against his bare chest. Her bra, crop top and panties are scattered on the floo
TASHA"You fucking piece of shit!" I scream, yanking my bag off my shoulders to the floor before lurching towards Diane, the fucking bitch I thought was my fucking bestfriend. I sink my fingernails into her dirty blonde hair and drag on the strands with all my strength, yelling my lungs out.This slimy bitch has been stabbing me in the back all along, getting her pussy digged with my boyfriend's cock while pretending to sympathize with me over the relationship problems between Jason and I.And speaking of that fucking asshole Jason, I am still getting to his case later.Loud cheers and boos from the other students echo throughout the atmosphere of the hallway as Diane and me drag and pull mercilessly at each other."Let me go you crazy bitch!" Diane yells, her hands trying to untangle my tight grip on her hair. Did she just call me a bitch?My brain spikes, and I finally lose it. All of it. My grip on her hair tightens as I pull her backwards with me. With all my fucking strength, I
TASHAWhen I arrive home, I dump my school bag on the sofa and proceed to the kitchen to wash my hands.I have never fought before in school. I can get into fights anywhere, but fighting on school grounds is off limits. That was one rule of mine that I made to myself to keep. However, today, I broke that single rule, and I am certain that I will be made to pay for it no matter what."Tasha!" I hear my mum yell my name.Oh fuck no! Why is she home already? Her chef working hours at the restaurant down the street doesn't end until 6pm.And why do I have the feeling that she already kn—"What the hell happened in school today?! What is going on with you?!" She yells again as she enters the kitchen, clutching her phone in her hand."Mum I can expl—""How could you stoop so low?! Fighting a girl in school over a boy?!" Her beautiful blue eyes blaze as she spits out the words in anger."He isn't just any random fucking boy mum! Jason was my boyfriend!"My mum bobs her head back a bit. Her e
NATE"Young man, what is this?" My father snaps, dropping my Maths test result on the dinning table like some piece of shit.Well, in actual sense, the test result is a total piece of shit. But what is my shitty Maths test result doing here on the dinning table when it should be safely hidden in my bag?"Answer me Nathaniel!" He barks, slamming his palm on the table, the action rattling the plates and the candelabras on the dinning table.I wonder why is he getting so worked up on my test result like he fucking cares."Antonio calm do–""Don't tell me to calm down Suzie."One fucking interesting fact about Dad is that no matter how angry he is, he still calls my mum Suzie and not Susan.But in my case, he goes all rogue, and even yells out my full name with disgust. His thick eyebrows arch, his blue eyes darken, and his nostrils flare up like they are about to combust into flames."Answer me you ungrateful spoilt brat!""It is my Maths test result." I shrug, picking at the blue berries
