Bailey's povFor a guy who was limping he sure freaking walks fast! Kaleb had already got to the double doors before I even caught up to him. But you can't blame me, I had to run down the bleachers and across the field! I never claimed to be athletic. He walked into the the building and my quick footsteps turn into a sprint. I huff by the time I got to the door and pushed it open. He's not far up ahead and it almost seemed like he was slowing down. " Kaleb!" I called out, rushing over to him. He stops but doesn't turn around. I am panting when I finally catch up to him, worried a bit when he stays silent. " Are you okay? " I whispered, clutching my back as I eyed the side of his face. He nod and continued walking forward. My brows furrowed. Just a nod? Is he seriously going to act cold now when I am genuinely worried about him?I followed after him silently, concerned that if I said another word we'd be arguing....but I did want to make sure he was okay. He took a nasty tackle a
Bailey's povHis lips on mine was urgent and desperate, moving against mine in a hungry dance. I could have easily pushed Kaleb away, easily moved off his lap. But instead of doing so, my body betrayed me by pushing closer to him and even going as far as moaning in his mouth. His hands are all over my body. One second his palming my ass the next his palming my breasts. His actions set fire in my veins and I shudder on top of him. " I just," He said between kisses, his lips moving off mine to travel down my jaw. His soft lips felt so good kissing my cheek to down my neck. I sighed, my fingers knotting in his hair as he peppered kisses down my neck, licking over my flesh. " I can't stop," he moaned, his lips sucking my skin. He nipped my skin, rolling his tongue over the sting and grabbed my ass. He squeezes. He detaches his lips from mine and lifted his head to look at me. His eyes are heated and show how much he longed for this moment. It made my heart flutter. " I can't stop t
Bailey's povI could feel the collective gaze of the room on me, and I struggled to come up with a reasonable explanation for the hickey. But nothing seem come to mind and my temples pinch slightly. Katrina glanced at me with a knowing smile, her eyes dancing with amusement, while Nurse Charles simply raised an eyebrow, as if she was waiting patiently for the excuse I would come up with. Does Katrina suspect what was going on?Kaleb's lips curved into a sly grin as he leaned back on the bed, clearly enjoying the situation he'd put me in.Before I could come up with an excuse, Mira pressed on. " It's so red and looks fresh," her brows furrowed as she stared at me confusion and surprise. She moves closer to me to obvious inspect it to make sure and by instinct my hands lift to cover over it. Well where I thought it was.Damn you Kaleb. I cleared my throat my mind and heart racing. "Uh well, it's just a..." my head hurt as I try my best to come up with something that won't have Mira
Bailey's povWe were in the parking lot, trying to figure out who will go with who. Kaleb and Stefan both had their cars and Katrina wanted to ride with Stefan because Kaleb drives too fast for her liking. I on the other hand knew that if I did ride with Kaleb and Mira, things would be awkward. It would not be the usual bickering we do, but I'd instead be quiet. Which was really not me and Kaleb's usual around Mira. We bickered like a cat and a dog. " You coming Bailey?" Stefan asked, waving me over with a huge grin on his face. I looked over at Kaleb nervously who glared at me across the hood of his car. " She's riding with me. Get in." His tone left no room to argue. Stefan looks upset and annoyed at Kaleb. " Let her choose man. I'm sure she doesn't want to leave her friend." Katrina looked between the two guys nervously. Everyone who was smart could see that there was some tension between the two, but no one knew why. Kaleb looked pissed off, the veins on his head more promin
Bailey's povThe point snaps for the fifth time on the paper. Mira lifts her gaze off the book and look over at me with furrowed brows, her eyes dropping on the pencil I held in my hand. The now point-less pencil. Her brows furrowed and she stood up, taking the pencil out of my hold. " Girl this is like the sixth time you've broken the point," she pointed out as she sharpened it once more again. "Fifth actually," I whispered, my mind drifting to Kaleb. He had occupied my thoughts for hours, especially since he have not returned. " What time is it?" I asked Mira, biting the inside of my cheek. Mira leaned over the desk, taps on her phone screen until it lights up. " It's seven fifteen." I looked out the window. From here I could see the neighbours house, all lights were on, but I had yet to see him get out of the house. My mind of course raced with many thoughts, causing me to feel unsettled and squirmy. I chewed on my lips, not wanting to raise suspicion but of course I blurt o
Bailey's povI power off my phone and place it back on the nightstand. I am determined to not fall for his tricks again. I took a warm shower and changed into my pajamas. Tucking under the covers, my door suddenly creak open. The light from the hallway creep into my dark room. " Are you asleep Bailey?" Lilian asked as she stepped into the room. I sat up, lifting the covers and silently telling her to get in. " No."Lilian rushes over to me, fitting herself under the covers with a giggle. I moved closer to her and we both stayed under the covers, peering up at the ceiling. My gaze was lost on the ceiling but my mind wandered off, thinking about Kaleb and Juliet. Now that she was back, what would happen now?I can vaguely remember her, we never really talked much. She acted sweet in front of everyone but her true colors always showed when she was alone with me. Juliet was a big bully and always flaunted herself like she was better than everyone. Kaleb was head over heels in love wi
Bailey's povThe next morning when I put on my phone, there were countless missed calls from Kaleb, including a few text that told me to pick up the phone. Whatever he had to say, he clearly wanted to speak to me about it without saying it in a text. I sighed and got ready for school, making sure I prepare myself mentally for our incoming conversation. There was no way I would be able to avoid him now that he wasn't avoiding me to. The only reason it worked the last time was because he made no effort to speak to me. Now, we clearly need to talk. And I clearly need to cut off whatever was happening between us. I could not only risk my friendship with Mira but I could also lose my heart. I didn't want to go through heartbreak when I know for a fact Kaleb would only bring that to my door. I couldn't mistake lust for love. It was just lust. I can fix this, I can get rid of it. Things had to go back the way it was between us or there would be many things at stake. I skipped down the s
Bailey's povI could have turned around and walked away, but I chose to stay. Not only because I was too proud but because Mira had already seen me and waved at me. Walking away would have just led her to question me. I mustered up a small smile as the three approached. I of course, kept my gaze only on Mira, avoiding the other two. I could feel his gaze piercing through me and squirmed. " Good morning," Mira chirped throwing her hands around both Katrina and me. I smiled but made a mistake by looking over. My eyes fell in his and the smile wipes off my face. He's glaring at me like I had stepped on his foot. I tore my eyes away but they fell on her. She stood close to him as though she already claimed him as hers. I could not help but feel bitter. Mira pulled away and turned around. "Remember Juliet guys?" Juliet was always pretty in middle school, the most beautiful and popular girl. With her auburn hair, brown eyes and pretty features she really was strikingly gorgeous. It is
