Bailey's povKatrina and I got into Stefan's car and we headed to the party, but we are surprised to have met Kaleb on the way. If I didn't know any better I would've said he was purposely driving slow so Stefan would catch up.When we got to the house, the party was already in full swing. Teens littered the lawn, some dancing while others downed whatever liquid were in the cups.We stepped out of the car and Mira skipped over to Katrina and I, linking her arms with ours. " Ready to take the stench of hormonal teens?" her nose wiggled in distate.Both Katrina and I gave her a side glare. " You're the one who forced us to tag along." Katrina pointed out, leading Mira to shrug.We entered the house, wincing when the sound of the music blasting off the walls made my ears ring. The boys were behind us but stepped ahead as people who were obviously drunk and half drunk cheered them on.Katrina, Mira and me curled closer to each other as we weave away from the crowd. I felt out of place her
Bailey's povHis voice sent shivers down my spine and I huffed, turning to him. I couldn't really see him properly in this dark but his mere presence made the room feel incredibly small.The tension grew so thick too.I worried my lips between my teeth and crossed my arms under my breasts."What are you doing here Kaleb? And how did you even find me?"?I can feel his eyes on me, eyeing me with a dangerous heat I could feel across the space between us." I came to check up on my runaway princess. You left in a hurry," his tone is soft, far from how it had been when I told him no in the schools parking lot.I swallowed, my breathing now a bit shaky."Well, you've checked. Now, I'd like to be alone," I replied, my voice colder than I intended.I thought my harsh words would make him flinch away and get out, but instead Kaleb moves to the left and puts on the lights.I wince, adjusting my eyesight to the intrusion of the light.He's standing in the room, leaning against the wall, a bottle
Kaleb's povDoes this girl not know how she fucking drives me insane?!She's now my waking thought and haunts me even in my dreams. Bailey Reed was starting to become an addiction I crave every single day.And you know what?I loved it.I loved craving her.Wanting her.Jesus, I only craved her.But I want more, this urgency to always be with her...This craving that was soon becoming a desperation.God.What had she done to me?I looked at her as she walked up those stairs, her long smooth legs making me want to lick them for hours."Where is she going?" Mira questioned with panic as she stared at Katrina who shrugged." I think she's gone to use the bathroom."Mira panics and pulls out her phone.The boys were talking to me but I couldn't focus on them. My ears were only picking up on the conversation Mira was having with Bailey."Kaleb. Do you hear me man?" A smack on my shoulder made me draw my attention back to Stefan."Hm?" I asked, not at all interested with what they were talk
Bailey's povI couldn't deny the electric feeling that buzzed between and around us. The raging of need and desire, of want and desperation.My heart raced as he revealed more of my skin and goosebumps spread on my flesh in an instant.I'm breathing hastily and in that moment as his lips move against mine, slow and sensual, so full of emotion, I forget about his past.And everyone behind that locked door.I forget why I should stay away from him and why he should stop. But I can't seem to latch on those red signs and instead they turn green.I gasp when he pulls away to look at me, a soft smile playing on his lips. " I hope that kiss told you everything I am trying to say."My breath hitched. It did. The kiss did reveal his emotions.Emotions I did not know Kaleb can have. I admit, before I saw him as nothing more than a boy with hormones he couldn't control.But this is far from the truth. He is so much more.His eyes pinned me down with honesty and a shiver race down my spine. " The
Bailey's povI'm breathing hastily as Kaleb kisses me slowly. It was a tender and something about this one was very different.It felt like a silent conversation between the two of us. A conversation where we both agree to be each other's.It felt like we were in our own little bubble. Just me and him. Us. Just us two. No one else, just us.But sometimes a happy little bubble doesn't last. Sometimes things happen to poke it. And pop, it's gone.The sharp sound of his ringtone or was it mine? I wasn't sure. But it screeched in the air like a dying horse.Breaking the warm feeling both Kaleb and I were surrounded by.Kaleb pulls away with a groan, cusses. "Fuck. I guess our time is up flower."He pecked my lips, groaned again and swept in for another slow kiss, only to be interrupted yet again."Dammit." He barked and sat up. Pulling his phone out of his pocket.I rise into a sitting position, balancing myself on my elbows while he furrowed his brows down at the screen."It's Stefan." H
Bailey's povBoth Mira and I stared at Katrina, but both of us with different expression. Mine was doubt while Mira looked confused. " What do you mean by that Kat?" Mira questioned, her eyes darting between Katrina and me. Katrina sighed. " It's just.....She trailed off and looked away from me to fix her gaze on Mira. " I think we judge Kaleb a bit too much. Maybe he isn't going to sleep with Juliet. Maybe he's dropping her off because she's crazy drunk. She did drink a lot Mira. And maybe, just maybe Kaleb is not in love with her anymore. There's a possibility he can fall in love with someone else." She then turn to me, making me swallow. " Right Bailey? There's a possibility?" I glanced at Mira, hating that Kat put me on the spot like that. Seeing Mira's eyes narrow on me, I shrugged and acted indifferent. " I don't know Kat, once a player, always a player." Mira clapped. " See!" She cheered, pointing at me. " I know I can always count on Bailey to see through my brother's b
Bailey's pov" Finally showed up Mira?" Ryan teased. There's a long wooden table separating the two, and on its surface is a line of cups filled to the brim with alcohol. The pungent scent is stale in the air, making my nose twitch." Now aren't you sweet to wait for me to start the game?" Mira's smile beamed brightly. She walked up to the table, called us over and taunted Ryan. "Let's begin shall we?"With a tilt of his head and a grin appearing on his face, Ryan nod while darting his eyes over everyone surrounding the table. " What do you say guys? Ready to play truth or dare?" The others cheer while Katrina and I gave each other nervous glances. We all knew how this game works, we've seen it first hand. Whatever you choose, truth or dare.....it wouldn't matter. All that mattered would be going through with it and not chickening out. If you do, then off with your hair!You'd be shaved bald. The way they play it had been done for years and passed down through generations. Only th
Bailey's povLong night indeed. As the giggles surged around us, Mirabella and Ryan seem to be too lost in their staring contest to realize the time was up. " Why don't you two just bone and get it over with!" Stefan yelled beside me, chuckling when he managed to break their stares. Mira quickly pulled her hand out, her face flushed as she looked at the floor. She bumped into Gracie on her way back here and didn't bother apologizing. " Oh God this was embarrassing." She whispered, shame written on her face and printed on her words. Katrina snorted. " I don't know, it seemed like you both were enjoying from here." Mira flushed red, stuttering before she muttered shut up. Katrina laughed while I try to comfort Mira. " Everyone is drunk, they'd probably not remember a thing after tonight." Mira twisted her face. " They took pictures. That dirty bitch Kirsty is going to embarrass me with them." I smiled sadly, unsure of what to say knowing she was right. Kirsty would certainly us
Bailey's povI should have known. There's a bubble of laughter that's stuck in my throat, laughter that would be dry of any emotion they deprived me of if I could let it out. I could see it now, I now could see why this was very likely to be her. Juliet. As she took her elegant time to come down the creaky stairs, disgust twisted within me along with hatred. This makes it two people I now hate. Stefan crossed his arms, his gleaming amused eyes on me. I hated that I was their amusement toy. As her pretty face came into view, the sadist gleam in her eyes made a shiver run down my spine sharply. She's at the end of the stairs, her hand grabbing the handrail as she turns to face me fully. She grinned. " Well hello there Bailey," her giggle makes me nauseous and I rip my teary eyes away from her. Why did she go this far? What have I done to this girl?Stefan snorted, reaching out to grab a lock of my hair. I flinched away and he chortles with her. " Now don't act like we're strangers
Bailey's povThe familiarity of that voice sends a sharp chill down my spine, my heart hammering in my chest. It can't be. It cannot be him.I am imagining this.There was no way.It just can't be.Yet, his scent is familiar, and his voice....Pieces start to fall into place and my stomach lurchs and I gag as realization dawns on me. Someone I considered a friend. Someone I trusted. Why would he do this? Why would he do this to me?Why would Stefan do this to me?A wave of betrayal weighs in my chest and also fury. I can't believe I trusted him. Why would he even do this? I rake my brain, trying to think of why Stefan would even play this sick game with me but came up with nothing.But then when he dipped his head in the crook of my neck and inhaled my scent, sighing with pleasure, a sinking realization dropped in my belly. " You've always smelt so good Bailey."His words sent a sharp shiver of disgust and repulsion clashing within me. His close proximity makes my stomach churn and I
Bailey's povIt was getting late, dark and I knew my parents didn't need to worry about another kid right now. I fished out my phone and texted mom that I was fine and would be home in a second. My eyes caught their many missed calls, and I bit my lip, hoping I had not worried them too much. I caught other missed calls from Kaleb and Mirabella too, but, I couldn't bring myself to text back. I wasn't sure how I could break it to them that my life was falling apart. That if my sister was in pain, then that meant I was in pain too. And if something happened to her, I swallowed. Then something happened to me too. The park was empty now, everyone had already gone home. I peeled away from the swing, my bum a bit numb from sitting on it for hours. My throat was achy from crying and I cleared it, picking up my bag. And that's when I heard it, or better yet felt it behind me. I am about to whirl around, but I am too late as a huge hand clamp around my lower face with a rag. My eyes widen a
Bailey's povThe world stopped. It felt like it stopped. The words that moved passed her lips hit me so hard, that it pushes the air out of my lungs. Cancer. The word was like a mocking echo we had promised to leave behind us. We had won. She had won. I looked down at my little sister, squished between our parents. Her face is unreadable but I know she is well aware of what is going on around her. How? God why? She had won? Hadn't she?She had won!"No," I whispered, my heart tearing apart. I don't think I will have a heart anymore after tonight. It doesn't feel like it will heal after this announcement. I shook my head, my vision going blurry as I begin to cry. " It can't be. You're lying!" The last words come out like a yell, my throat aching with the aggressiveness I used. " Tell me you're lying mom!" I screamed, causing Lil to squirm away and look at me in fear. I quickly toned down my anger, not wanting her to fear me. I approached them, falling to my knees beside the bed, st
Bailey's pov"Can I have another?"I bit my lower lip to fight off the giggle but couldn't fight off the smile as I leaned over the console to plant a soft kiss on Kaleb's lips.He nibbled on my lower lip and before I knew it, we were kissing deeply. I was the first to break away, breathing so rough I had to take in a good amount of air into my lungs to calm down my racing heart.Kaleb lifted his hand and cupped my cheek, his thumb brushing against my cheek lovingly. "I love you," he whispered, every word coming out with such honesty I melted."I love you too," I responded truthfully, kissing his nose and giggling when he scrunched it up in an adorable way."Babe," he whined, pouting slightly. "I'm the one who is supposed to do that."I rolled my eyes, laughing as I pulled away, but for good measure, I planted another kiss on his nose and jokingly murmur. " I think I rather be the man in the relationship," with a teasing grin I successfully got out of the vehicle whilst he was dumbfou
Bailey's povMy fingers curled through his soft strands, gripping them tightly. My eyes closed, my hips buck off the bed and a scream curled in my throat as his tongue rolled around my clit teasingly.He groaned, gripping my thighs to keep me from moving as his lips wrapped around my clit and he sucked."Kaleb," I moaned and he nipped my clit, making me jerk off in surprise."Sam," he reminded, nipping my lips in warning. I giggled, only to moan when the tip of his tongue sank into my opening."Oh Sam," I sighed, my eyes peeling open to stare at him between my thighs. He had a satisfied smirk on his lips while his tongue was very much still inside my opening.With a dark look crossing his eyes, he began to push his tongue in and out of my opening, his upper lip pressing against my throbbing clitoris.He moaned as I grip his hair, my nails unintentionally scraping his scalp. He suckled and slurped, eating me out until I saw the dotings of the little stars in my vision.As he tongue fuc
Bailey's povA loud snore made me look over at the bed. Mira had fallen asleep about five minutes ago and Kristina and I didn't want to wake her up.So much for having a full two hour study time."Hmm I like it like that Ryan,"I furrow my brows and looked over at Kristina who gave me the same look. Amusement."Did she just talk in her sleep?" Kristy snorted giggle, throwing her hand over her mouth. I nodded, pushing my teeth into my bottom lip and hoping I'd not cave and burst into the laughter that was already bubbling in my chest."So good,"Kristina's eyes widen and she mouthed. "I think she's having a sex dream."I nodded, pressing my knuckles to my mouth as I stared at my drooling best friend on the bed. Someone would think she was dreaming about food with the amount of drool that slithered down the sides of her mouth."Definitely about Ryan." I giggled as Mira gripped the sheets and let out a small moan."It honestly feels like we're intruding on their moment." Kristy snorted,
Bailey's pov"I hate this," Mira moaned, turning around to lie on her back and stared, well more like glared at the ceiling.Mira, Kristina and I were doing a last minute group study for the exam tomorrow.Kristina rolled her eyes, lifting her arms over her head and yawned. "For the first time, I agree with you on this."Mira looked over at her in the bed, her eyes twinkling with that mischievous glint I know all too well. "How about you give us the details on what's going on between you and Mr Malik after your talk?" She wiggled her brows and turned around in her stomach.Kristina flushed instantly, her eyes quickly darting to the doorway. "Mira!" She hissed.Mira shrugged. "Parents not home yet and that dweeb of a brother is in his room, mopping because it's girls time and he can't have his girlfriend." She rolled her eyes, scrunching her nose."Hey," I said playfully to her. "Leave my man alone."Mira faked gag. "Did you hear it Kristy? Leave her man alone. Ew."I narrowed my eyes.
Kristina's pov"I'll see you guys later," I waved at Bailey and Mira as they left with Kaleb. They gave me worried glances and I smiled to reassure them that what I am about to do, I am okay and I can handle myself. As I watch the car drive away, I turn back around and stepped back into the school.School had just ended and everyone was making their way home. Except for me of course. I had unfinished business to do. That unfinished business had something to do with a certain art teacher who had been avoiding me like the plague.Justin usually stayed back a bit late. I'm not sure why, but whenever I have cheer practice he's always in his classroom when I pass by.I am praying he's still there and the classroom is empty.As I get closer, my fingers tremble and a spike of my heart rate made me swallow. I hated that I was so full of nerves. I didn't want to go over to him and stand in front of him and be a blabbering idiot.But I needed to do this.With a sudden burst of determination, I
