(ISABELLA’S POV)

The next morning, Brad was wearing a huge grin when I came out of the house.

I narrowed my eyes confused as I walked up to him.

“Why do you have that look? What have you done?” I said teasing him.

He took my hand in his and led me to the clear front where I could get a clear view of a brand new dark SUV Parker waiting.

I turned to him with a raised eyebrow and a widely opened set of eyes.

“Is it….”

“Yes. It’s mine.” He said.

I gave a whistle as I walked towards the car unable to stop being amazed at its beauty.

“How did you get it?” I asked.

“I bought it.” He answered. “Playing in a big league team does have good financial benefits. Especially when you’re the star player.” He added proudly.

“But isn’t this like really expensive?” I asked still gaping in surprise.

“It’s just a drop in the ocean.” He said.

“Well okay sir.” I said getting in to the car as he awaited with the door opened. He joined me soon and I mused at the inner beauty of the car.

    (BRAD’S POV)The week made me realize how much more I loved Isabella. I’ve always loved playing ball, hence football. It fills my heart with so much joy that I am fully imersed in the thrilling sport and most times, I’m not really interested in anything else going on. But this week, I had to fight so hard to keep my mind in check. I had to try my possible best to block our thoughts of Isabella while I toiled and practiced. I didn’t get to see her as often as I wanted to. I had to leave home as early as a few minutes to six to return home exhausted late in the evening. She found out about it and wouldn’t let me take her to school or bring her back.“I can’t take care of that. You have a lot going on for you this week.” She had told me in her soft, Angel like voice. That was the last time we were together physically. On Tuesday evening in her playground right after omhad home through a hard practice. She could see how worn out I was and so she would not even let us make out even tho

    (ISABELLA’S POV’)BRAD - Hey Baby, where are you?I bit my lower lip as excitement piled through me at the sight of the text from Brad. I had not even left my seat at the bleachers and yet he was already texting me. I thought he would need some time to celebrate with his friends before he and I left for our private destination.But here he was, texting me already. I felt jitters at the thought of knowing that he wants to be with me just as much as I want to be with him.BELLA - Hey Champ! I’m still at the bleachers. I’m about to leave though BRAD - Meet me at the parking lot, okay?A smile crept on to my lips. I turned to look at the jubilation going on down and sure enough, he was not there anymore. He had been though, the last time I checked.BELLA - Okay.I suddenly could not wait to get to the car park and of course it suddenly seemed like it was ten thousand miles away.After what seemed like eternity, I got off the bleachers and walked towards the parking lot humming to myself.

My heart was fully and my body lit with happiness.Pete ushered me with his hand on the small of my back, his eyes were fixed as he observed my reaction to the setting before us. Chocolates were arranged along with rose petals to display a perfect shape of love drawn on the bed.“Brad…. You did all this for me?”Those were the only words that made their way out of my mouth. I was amazed and i felt so special. Which was a normal thing for him to do.He always made me feel so special.“Yes. You are worth this and so much more. I’ll do anything for you.” Brad said and his hand came around me and pulled my body closer to him.I wrapped my arms around him and initiated a kiss that was long overdue. It started as a ‘Thank you kiss’ and quickly graduated to an ‘I have missed you kiss’.His lips stayed yearning for more of me and once I parted my lips open, his tongue slipped

    (OLIVIA’S POV)The moment Hilary got in to the car, I knew that something was wrong but i focused my attention on my phone knowing fully well that it most probably had nothing to do with me. We were on our way to the party and the car was temporarily plunged in to silence. “Olivia.” I snapped up in surprise. There was something about the way she said my name.“Yes?” I answered eagerly.“Is Brad going to be at the party?” She asked. She was seated cross legged directly opposite me in the large spaced car while Tiara sat beside me all sprawled out chewing her gum carelessly as usual. I cleared my throat ready to speak, “Oh. I guess he should. He’s the star of tonight.” I said not being able to help the pride that set in.But my answer did not seem to impress Olivia. She simply turned her attention to her iPad which she held on her lap and I took it as my cue to return my own attention to my phone, relieved that was all she asked.There has been something strange about Hilary since th

  • My Best Friend’s Brother    A Decision.

    (ISABELLA’S POV)Despite the relief, I found myself wishing that Olivia had not hung up so quickly. It would have been nice to speak with her just for a moment. She had not even said anything about my home coming queen nomination. I tried to act like it did not hurt me but it did.Instead all she cared about was asking me where I was as and where Brad was. Could there be a problem? Was she suspecting anything?I was deeply submerged in my own thoughts that I did not even notice Brad walk in until he gently touched me and i jumped a little startled.I relaxed when I saw it was him standing before me. He was wearing sweatpants and he was bare chested, his face was clear and his hair looked damp from the shower. I gulped at his dreamy look and he sat down beside me on the couch and pulled me closer to him.“What’s wrong?” He asked me kindly searching my face and then his eyes went to my phone in my hand.“Is it your mum? Is something wrong?” He asked with concern evident in his smile..

    (ISABELLA’S POV) I was too shy to have Brad step in to the shower with me but I had the most romantic night yet. He laid out a table picnic with my favourite foods and played a Harry Potter Marathon for me. He specially took time to find out about the things I loved and I had no idea how. We spent the night cuddled together on the pillowed ground and it was the most comfortable feeling ever. The next morning while I stared in to the mirror brushing my hair, I could see him watching me carefully while he leaned against the wall. “Why are you looking at me like that?” I could not help but ask when I could not take the shyness anymore. He straightened his posture then and walked to me rubbing my arms and hugging me from behind. He buried his face in the crook of my neck and I had my hand holding his head in place as I rested back against him. “I’m going to miss you so much.” He hummed against my skin and his breath caused me to sigh in satisfaction. I closed my eyes and we stay

    (HILARY’S POV) Tiara was singing along loudly to Nicki Minaj’s Super Freaky Girl when the car pulled up in front of the Johnsons’ house. “Thanks so much for such a fun night! Bye guys!” Olivia said her goodbyes. “Bye girl!” Tiara responded barely looking up from her phone. I pretended like I wasn’t paying Olivia any attention until she had her hand on the door button while the other held her overnight bag. “Olivia.” I said with a tight smile. She gave me a nervous smile back and turned to Tiara briefly before glancing back at me. Of course Tiara didn’t pay us any attention. “Yes Hilary?” I wanted to speak but somehow Tiara was loudly rapping along and it was interrupting my thoughts. “Shut up T.” I snapped angrily at Tiara whose loud voice was upsetting me to the fullest. “Fine.” Tiara said sulking and she became quiet. I turned to Olivia with a bright smile. “So, how have you been enjoying the whole experience so far. Not just being a Fort Haven High cheerlea

    (BRAD’S POV) “I only asked her about your likes and I really had no idea that she was going to rat me out!” I said in my defence. Isabella let out a playful snort. “Of course she will rat you out. I mean, it’s Jeanie for goodness sake!” She said to me. I was on the phone with Bella who was filling me on the conversation she had just had with her younger sister, Jeanie. Apparently, we have Jeanie to thank because Olivia would have found out that Bella and I were together last night. Which in turn would have caused some serious damage. Jeanie also told Bella that I asked a couple of questions about her. I did do that sneakily the last time I went to the Johnsons for dinner. But it was only because I couldn’t ask Olivia about Bella’s recent interests and Jeanie was my only option. Plus I thought I could trust her. We even had a pinky swear on it! So much for trust, huh? “So doesn’t this mean she’s going to rat us out?” I pointed outs “I hope not. At least not un

    (ISABELLA’S POV)It had been a week since the incident. By the incident, I mean the one that signalled the end of the nightmare. The day we had obtained an implicating recording of Hilary and Dave with the help of Tiara.Things were slowly beginning to settle down and get back to normal. My punishments had been reduced a little. I was still grounded but I was allowed to go out for a few hours a day.School which had been my most feared place was better than I had expected and hoped for. Brad and Olivia never left my side. Everyone knew the whole story now and as the days passed, their whispers and glances at us disappeared in to thin air. On this particular day, I felt great. My day at school was almost normal except for the bugging thought of Hilary that occasionally came to my mind.I had not seen her since that incident and I would not see her until the day I do in court. A day, I wasn’t looking forward to but was prepared to.I was at home reading a novel and laid back on my be

    (BRAD’S POV)I sighed gathering enough courage and then I knocked on the door briskly. After a short moment, I rang the doorbell also and stepped back patiently.“Good afternoon. How may I help you please?” A maid dressed in black and white uniform was the one who answered the door.“I’m here to see Dave please.” I said.Just as the maid opened her mouth to answer me, someone emerged from the hallway.“What the hell are you doing here?” Dave’s angry voice came before his face came in to view.His hair looked rough and his clothes looked rumpled. He looked like he was going through hell.“I came to see you because I want to talk to you.” I said stepping in to the house.Dave glared at me but I was surprised to see that he didn’t tell me to get out as I took another step forward.“So what is it? What exactly do you want to say to me? You want to laugh at me? Mock me because I’ll be going to Jail soon?” He asked and the anger was evident in his voice.“I did not come to mock you.” I said

    (ISABELLA’S POV)I wished that morning time would come as soon as possible but time seemed to be slower than ever. For the longest time it was only eleven thirty pm and I had no idea why sleep was not coming to me. I wanted so much to see Brad and I don’t know how I managed to wait till this time.The sound of a rattle at my window pane made me shake. I jumped to my feet again when I heard the sound at the window again. I had no doubt that it was Brad and when I pushed the curtains aside, his face warmed me up. He was downstairs and beckoning me to come too. I contemplated for a split second and then threw on a robe before heading downstairs.I went out as carefully as I could and dashed to the back where Brad was waiting for me. “Hey.” He said taking my hand in his.My heart felt so warm and I felt so happy. I hugged him immediately and he was stiff with shock at first but then he hugged me back tightly. There was something about his hugs that made me never want to leave. It mad

    (OLIVIA’S POV)“Where are you going? Have you forgotten that you are grounded?” Mum asked interrupting me as I whistled and walked majestically to the door.“Oh. I know. I’m just going next door to apologize to Chris, Victoria and Bella.” I said with a hopeful smile.Mum rolled her eyes at me and then carried on with what she was doing which was setting flowers in a vase. I guess that meant I could carry on. Yes, I was grounded with a lot of limitations to phone, Tv and social events. After our hearty reconciliation last night, the punishments were next for Brad and I.Today is also the last day I’m allowed to skip school until I graduate. I guess my parents and Bella’s parents agreed on that since last night had been a whole lot.I was still whistling as I walked down the pathway leading to the Martinez house but then I noticed a black Camry car slowing down close to me.A sense of fear gripped me and I could not help but wonder if it was Hilary or Dave and if they were back to dea

    (BRAD’S POV)I watched the closed door weakly. What did Dave mean by the things he had just said?. The look in his eyes seemed so intense, there had to be some meaning in his words.“Hey.” Bella’s soft voice pulled me out of my thoughts and I turned to see her wearing a weak smile.“Hey.” I replied softly .Seeing her ever beautiful face refreshed me and I felt as relieved as ever to know that we would be able to keep those videos away from the eyes of everyone.Bella was pulling me away with her and I could see that the police officers were making their way to Dave’s front door.I’m sure our parents had explained the situation and why they had to take action.“Hey.” Bella said again and her hand cupped my cheek briefly with affection. “Are you okay?” Her eyes searched mine earnestly.I managed a smile at her.“Yes. I think I’m okay.” I said and then I shook my head. “I know I’m okay. Everyone knows how we feel about each other and we dealt with the dark part of this whole thing.”The

Tiara hated that she had to keep her face in an encouraging mood, she hated that she had to join and speak to Hilary by cursing out Dave even more and she was thankful that she was one who spent most of her time tapping at her phone. It helped her to escape some of the conversations.Thankfully, Hilary was not one who noticed the emotions of others and she was so busy thinking of herself that she didn’t notice her friend’s forced attitude.“I’ll show the damned fool! He must be thinking I don’t have anything on him, but I do.” Hilary said storming out of the car the moment it was parked out in front of Dave’s house.She hurried up the front porch with Tiara trailing after her after quickly as she made sure her recording was starting.The door was opened by one of the maids of the house whom Hilary pushed aside rudely and stormed upstairs.She banged on Dave’s door countlessly and she fume

I’m sorry for showing up unnannounced.” Olivia said with a shaky smile.“Leave Jude.” I said to my brother unable to ignore the way he was ogling at the girls who were waiting for me.Jude groaned disappointedly in reply and then he walked away muttering a curse at me. I folded my arms across my chest and looked challengingly at Olivia.“Bold of you to come here after the rude way you treated me. You shut the door in my face.” I pointed out.Olivia sighed and lost the smile she had been wearing.“You can’t blame me, can you? You were horrible to me.” She said.I shrugged and pushe

    (BRAD’S POV)The tension in the room could be cut with a pair of sharp scissors. Everywhere was almost in a pin drop silence except for the voice of Mr George Martinez on the phone with the police officer.His voice echoed throughout the nearly silent room as everyone else avoided eye contact. I stole the thousandth glance at Isabella but she still wasn’t looking up.She had her eyes set on her fingers as she twisted them together in her lap. Olivia was faced sideways with her eyes on the portrait even though her mind was definitely elsewhere.My parents were seated together on the Chaise lounge and even though they were seated side by side, they seemed to be worlds apart.Victoria Martinez was seated on a couch right next to her daughter, Isabella and just like me, she kept stealing glances at Bella.“I’ve handled talking to Officer Tay. He’s very happy for us.” George Martinez said walking back in and making me turn my face away from Bella.He didn’t take a seat on any of the chairs
