RONANAI hurt Kim,I hurt her just so I could unhurt myself. I love her and I'd do anything for her,the hurt on her face when she realized I manipulated her and used her. I don't blame her for breaking up with me, I hurt her,I changed,I robbed her of the love and best friend of her life, which was the old me.Dad was right,mom would be so disappointed. Kim hates me,she hates me and I hate it, I would rather let her go than have her hate me for the rest of her life.I need to make it right, I've been following her, waiting for the perfect time to talk to her, it's wrong I know. It slaps a stalker label on my forehead,but what options do I have? She doesn't answer or reply to my calls and messages. She even went to lengths of blocking me, social medias included,so you see? No options.Finally. Sam leaves for God knows where,that little vicious minx would cut my dick off before I even get to utter a single word in Kim's direction.I climb off my bike,I'm about to storm in her direction wh
When Brandon told me Ronan was just venting out his anger,which was why he didn't fight him, I was shocked to learn that he backed off because of the love he has for me,that he wants me to be happy. Bran's sentence didn't sound right though, so I literally had to force him to fill the blanks and he nearly growled the words, "he loves you."I had to wait this long to confront Ronan, I mean he hurt my Bran and no matter the reason,I won't hesitate releasing my wrath on the person who causes him harm,which is why I had to wait for my heart to cool down because I didn't trust myself not to claw his eyes out.I go to the place I know without a doubt he's at. Ronan's back is to me,his legs are dipped in the steam rising water. Brandon would kill me if he knew I went here.I remove my shoes and sit next to him,dipping my legs in the water.We stay silent for long minutes."Hi," I whisper."Hi," he whispers back."You know..I must admit I did miss this place.""I know you did."I turn my hea
KIMBERLY"So this is it? we go our separate ways," Michael speaks after taking a shot."yeah...this kind of sucks you know?" I respond."Yep," Sam sighs."I just got used to this,us and the groupie thing," she adds."Who would have thought we would be sitting here finding it hard to leave each other," I say.If a year ago, someone told me this would be our situation, me, Sam and the Elites being best buddies? I would have slapped them hard on the head with my textbooks.I used to see these guys as jerks, well.. of course they are jerks, most especially when you view them from the outside, and that's if you are not one of those girls who want them under your skirt and put aside their stupid attitudes. They've become important people to me,and lastly,I'm so glad that Sam has found happiness. finally I'm at a place where I know for certain that Xander's feelings for Sam are real."yeah.. who would have thought Sam and Xan would be shagging.""you shut up." Sam throws a popcorn at Lenny, X
BRANDON*Two Years Later*"Who the fuck told you, you can touch my fiancee?" I hold the guy up against the wall. He's a student who has the same course with Kim, the fucker honestly thought he could touch her hand. Nobody touches what's mine!"Brandon."Kim's small hands pull me back but I don't budge.The moment I walked in and saw him holding her hand and waist I lost it."Brandon put him down,you'll hurt him."He's a nerd. With his funny spectacles,he looks like that character Harry from Harry Potter.I let him go and he picks up his books from the floor in a hurry."Oh my God Harry,I'm so sorry."Well fuck,he is Harry after all.Kim touches his arm and the poor guy's eyes snap to me in fear."Don't worry,it's just Brandon being....well Brandon. He's not always like this, he just doesn't know you that's why.""O-okay, it's alright. See you around."He scurries off so fast he nearly hits in the corner as he turns.Kim spins around with eyes glaring and a hand hiked up on her hip."T
KIMBERLYWhen Brandon placed the engagement ring on my finger,I felt all the pieces of my heart fit together,I thought the only man I would ever love in my life is Killian,my young brother. Kill has grown up to be such a handsome boy, he's now fifteen, recently started highschool at Blackwool royal and part of the football team,all because of his idol, Brandon. Mom is having a hard time accepting that all her babies have grown up,well Killian is still a kid but with his personality...I don't think so. My young brother has grown up to be exactly like Brandon,girls throw themselves at him because apparently,he's a genius,has good looks and is a football Captain.The fact that mom called asking when I'll get to visit because she's afraid of opening the thousands of love letters in our mail because they might blind her eyes, had me rolling on the ground with laughter.Lately, Brandon has been very busy,we barely spend time together like old times,the only chance we have is when we both ge
KIMBERLY"You'll find out soon."Bran smiles down at me,"You know I hate surprises right? What if you're going to tell me you're no longer interested in marrying me?"I laugh smoothly but the sudden tense of his muscles has me pausing, he continues dragging me to the car,I get in and he drives off.The entire ride is quiet, I leave it at that because maybe he's thinking about the surprise. I smile to myself and roll down the window, enjoying the feel of the cool breeze filling the space.We arrive at a museum,I frown then look up at Bran and find him watching me."An Art museum?""Yes, come on."We walk inside and I melt. The place is full of beautiful paintings hanging on the wall,my lips part and I can't seem to close them,one painting grabs my attention. I move forward and stare at it,it's so beautiful,I tilt my head to the side trying to make sense of it.The colors and design are catchy,I don't even really know why I'm so mesmerized by it. "If you keep staring at that portrait
KIMBERLYI see Harry rounding the corner,he seems to be in a rush,I can't catch up with hi, so I call out his name loudly."Stuart!" I use his last name.He looks back and pauses,I wave for him to stop."Hey!" I breathe heavily once I reach him."Uh..hi." he smiles awkwardly and pushes his spectacles up the bridge of his nose."Can I walk with you?" I ask and he looks around nervously."What's wrong?" I follow his gaze but there nobody around."Harry?" I touch his arm and he startles."L-look Kim,there's something I need to tel-""Hey baby."Bran hugs me from behind,I don't answer him as I keep looking at Harry. He was about to tell me something but when he looks behind me,his mouth seals shut."Har-""I should go,see you later Kimberly."Then he scurries off. I frown,he just called me Kimberly and not Kim. I turn and face Brandon,he's looking in the direction Stuart went.He looks down and finds me watching him,his eyes soften and a smile pulls at his lips."How was your day?""It w
KIMBERLY Ever since Matt told me about his bucket list being all about me, I just brushed it off and tried to get rid of him, but he wouldn't stop following me around or pushing me to be friends with him. I honestly don't know what the guy's problem is, there's thousands of girls here throwing themselves at his feet but he just won't stop bothering me.The last thing I want is him getting into trouble with Brandon, if he finds out there's a guy onto me, things won't go well.I place my books on my lap as I sit in a chair in the hall. Suddenly, the feeling of being watched starts to crawl on my skin, I search my surroundings and there's no one looking at me, i frown.That's weird.The entire time, I keep feeling a weight on me but I try my best to ignore it.Once the lecture stops, I get up and make my way to the entrance then accidentally bump into someone."Oh crap." I crouch and start to pick up my books when I catch someone mirroring my position and helping me out."Oh my goodne
KIMBERLYI hug my books to my chest, leaning against the wall and smiling at Harry."Sooo, you will make it, right?"I sigh."I don't know, Harry. But I promise I'll try my best to make time."His face falls and I instantly feel bad for turning him down."Hey babe," Brandon says from beside Harry and he goes tense.Bran's eyes find Harry, but instead of scaring him off, he smiles at him and says,"Hi." I'm taken aback for a second there and so is Harry."Uh, hello. Kim, I better get going.""Sure, see you around."He walks off and I'm left with Brandon. I turn to him and smile with amusement."Well look who's being nice."He corners me until there's no space behind me and the wall. He places his hands on the wall behind me, caging my head between them, then he leans down so close such that I have to cross my eyes to get a better look at him."For you, I'd be nice even to the devil."He smiles down at me and I'm reminded once again that this man is the only one for me.I smile back an
KIMBERLY I was wrong, again. I need to stop acting out of jealousy or impulse. Brandon steps closer and places his palm on my cheek. "Now, can we talk?" I shake my head, yes. He pulls me outside and to the backyard. He takes a seat on a bench and I do the same next to him. I focus ahead but can feel his eyes on me. "I need you to stop doubting me," he says. My eyes meet his. "I need you to trust me as much as I trust you, Kimberly." "Then don't give me any reason to doubt you," I say softly. "And I am trying, that's why I cut off Marisa completely." "But did you?" I search his eyes. "What?" He frowns and I take in a sharp breath. "The night I got attacked," I start and notice his body tense. "You went to her, didn't you?" We search each others eyes and he says without blinking. "Yes." He answers, i swallow at his honesty. "And I beat myself up every day for it, she was wasted, when a bartender called me and said she was drunk, I went to take her home." It hurts that he
BRANDON The death glares Naomi has been giving me since yesterday are enough to put someone in a damn comma. When Kimberly asked me if I fucked Shiloh, I was dumbfounded. Lying and cheating are two different things, the fact that she thinks I would actually dip my dick in someone else who isn't her pisses the shit out of me. I'm anything but a fucking cheater. I hate that she was crying, I hate it when she does. The angry sex though? It was everything, I liked the pain she inflicted on me, I wouldn't mind if she repeated it over and over again, it just made my dick hard. Backing up has never been my thing, I'm just giving her a few hours to calm the fuck down and I'll be bursting through that damn door so that we can talk. What she found in that frat was a pre party chill, the actual party is tonight and I wouldn't put it past Kim to think I'll be fucking Shiloh. I need to erase that doubt from her mind, my dick won't be fucking anyone in this lifetime apart from Kimberly. I flo
KIMBERLY The entire ride, all I can think about is how Brandon let those stupid whores embarrass me. Michael and Jonathan too. I wipe at the tears angrily and park the car in the driveway. I thought about not coming back to the girl's apartment incase Brandon decides to follow me, but then I thought about the words he slapped me with last time, "I always run away at a small sign of misunderstanding". I lean my hands on the kitchen island and close my eyes. The door opens but I don't move, his cologne hits me even before his voice does. "It's not what you think." I turn around and slap him hard across the face. I glare at him through a blurry vision and I hate that stupid tears keep forming behind my eyelids. I need to show him that I'm strong, not just some weak girl who runs away every time and cries anytime we aren't in good books. His jaw clenches and his eyes harden. That annoys me more because he has no right to be mad that I slapped him, so I do it again. "Kim," he says
KIMBERLY Operation, "Find Out What The Guys Are Up To." is in full progress.I lie on my back on the bed, wondering what the hell is going on when the door opens and Nao walks in with a bowl of ice cream.It's just the two of us today since Sam went out with this new guy she met a few weeks ago, I'm happy to say that things are really looking good for them, i want Sam to be happy and the fact that she's finally giving herself a chance to be loved and to love makes me so proud.I sit up and give Nao a warm smile."Hey," "Hey," she replies. "There's someone downstairs for you.""Who is it?""He said his name is Harry, from school.""Oh." I get up and walk downstairs.Harry is seated on the sofa with a glass of water in his hand. Ever since he heard about my attack two weeks ago, he kept checking up on me over the phone, this is the first i've seen him in person after our school project together."Harry?"He turns around and smiles at me over his shoulder."Kim," he places the glass o
KIMBERLY The past two weeks have been hard. My bruises are gone but I'm still self conscious, so I apply too much makeup on my eye. I still have no idea who the hell saved me that night. As for Brandon, he's gone back to the routine of disappearing and coming back with bruised knuckles or a split lip.Brandon is not one to hurt innocent people, that's why I'm worried where he goes to every time only to come back like he's from war.Ever since I got beat up, I've had this awful fear of taxi's or ubers, so i always walk my way home.I enter the girl's apartment and find them cuddled on the sofa watching a romance movie on Netflix."Hey!" Nao say, she straightens from her position where she was resting her head on Sam's shoulder then pats the space between them. "You took too long we couldn't wait.""That's fine," I say and sit in the middle. "What's the storyline?"Sam gives a brief description and then there's comfortable silence as we watch the movie. * *A tap on my shoulder startl
BRANDON"I asked you to keep an eye on her, why the hell did you let her leave?" I whisper to Michael."Now I'm the one to blame for what happened to her? Dude, I didn't expect that to happen either."I let out a deep sigh and run my hand over my face. When I saw how she looked last night, my heart almost leaped out of my chest. She was all bruised and swollen I almost didn't recognize her."And that comes to my question, where the hell were you?"My eyes snap to Michael's and my heart swells in my chest when I think about where I was. This fucking guilt I will carry for the rest of my life. I left her, I wasn't there to save her and that fact eats me the fuck up. Whoever saved her protected her, I don't even want to imagine what would have happened to her if that person didn't appear on the scene on time. I can't even thank him because she doesn't know who he is, she didn't see his face."I had to take care of something.""Was it that important that you had to leave her behind witho
KIMBERLY"Oh. You so you've seen him in your dreams?" Because you're obsessed with him not because it's fate. I say but don't tell her that."Yes.""What dreams are they?""You won't judge me, right?""Of course not."Her cheeks tint a bright shade of pink."He ..he does things to me that no man has ever done."Oh shit. She really is obsessed. And, she's a...virgin?Silence.More silence."Please don't think I'm a psychopath, I swear I'm not.""April, no. I don't think like that at all."I lean back in my seat and take in all her features. Michael doesn't like innocence, he likes them all ruffled up, he likes rebels and strays.April is too innocent, but there's no denying the fact that she's extremely beautiful, if I'm being honest, she's slightly more prettier than Sam and trust me, Sam is pretty. The one who wants to make us run for the hills with her beauty is Nao. April grabbing Michael's attention?Well, it's a long shot but worth trying."Can we take a pic together, you know,
KIMBERLYI'm extremely annoyed, no, annoyed is an understatement, I'm utterly pissed and livid, I'm angry, I'm a lot of things right now. I glare at Michael who is seated opposite me with his elbows resting on his knees and a bottle of beer dangling between his fingers. The moron looks unbothered by my glare, in fact, when i glare harder and my eyes turn to slits, he grins at me."Michael!" I say with more annoyance and frustration but his grin widens some more."What?" He arches a brow.I sigh,"Are you just going to sit there and follow orders from Brandon instead of having fun?"He takes a sip and keeps staring at me as if I didn't even say a single word. My attempt at poking him fails miserably but I don't give up.Scooting closer to the edge of the sofa, I try to bargain with him."Look," he turns his head away from me, pretending to be avoiding me but I continue. "If you just let me do whatever the hell I want, I might get you a date with April."His eyes snap to mine.Yes!"I
