Anatasia POV: I wanted to speak but the words won't seem to come out,I felt as if their was a lump on my throat. "Anna do you need my help with anything? You have to say what it is for me to understand you I can't read your mind you know." Caleb chaffed as he saw how tense I was but it didn't help one bit. "Nothing ….I..well..I just wanted to see you, " I mumbled. I know my reply was stupid but I couldn't make up any reason as to why I wanted to see him. Oh goodness Anna! Why not just say what you want to say outloud. "You like my company that much is that why you wanted to see me?" He asked a cheeky grin on his face. "Maybe I do " I replied. Not just maybe but I want to stay by your side each day. That's would definitely sound weird if I say it out loud like that. "Seriously Anna, why did you want to see me?" He asked again. "W..well I ..I just...I cooked lunch for you and I'm...I just wanted to give it to you." I stammered nervously as a blush creeped into
CALEB'S POVSchool had ended and students were leaving but I was heading to my locker.I didn't like school that very much and I didn't know school had ended until I heard the voices of students leaving the school.They were always loud,I wasn't in class and I would probably get detention later but I didn't care."Bye Caleb." A girl called out to me as she waved goodbye to me and I smiled as I waved back and winked at her as she chuckled and walked away.The smile instantly disappeared and I stuffed my hands into my pocket as I walked down the hallway to my locker.My thoughts were only one person Anna,the thought of her cuteness brought a smile to my face again.She blushes at a slight thing even though she was the one that brought up most of the reasons she blushed just like today.It was really interesting getting to know her was actually the best thing that could have ever happened to me. If anything I'll say that I was glad that I found out her secret hideout and then she comes
Anna POVI could feel the gentle breeze blowing through my window and touching my body which was crawled up in a ball up on the bed. It should have been a wake up call but I didn't care about it. My eyes were wide open and I didn't move an inch. School was not something I looked forward to but today I wanted to crawl up in a ball with a novel in hand and just lay in bed while reading. I had fallen asleep while reading a novel in bed and that novel was better than the life I lived when I woke up this morning and I wanted to go back into the walls that the novel built up high that no one could break. A world of my own. I was snapped out of my thoughts when I heard knocking on my door.I was too drained to stand up let alone ask who was knocking on my door,my alarm clock had gone off king ago but I still didn't move out of bed I just turned it off and lay there thinking."Get out of bed Anna I don't want to come back here to get you or I would knock down this door, m
Anna's pov Tina and her sidekick Dora stood in front with Tina holding my lunchbox in her hand as she smirked at me. "I am not in the mood for this today,just give it back". I tried approaching this more calmly but I guess this won't work. I don't know why I feel they are just out to get me. I mean the school bell just rang some minutes ago and they should be in class. How come they are standing in front of me now? "I told you you would regret talking to me that way." She told me as she opened my lunch. "Mm this smells delicious no wonder you have such a big mouth on you when,when you are fed this much you tend to think you have gone wings and forget who the real bosses are here in the school." Tina sneered at me. Right now I don't want my lunch in her hand because I was hungry and I didn't want the attention this was drawing. "Tina please just give it back I didn't mean to upset you." I tried to calmly resolve this because I knew where this was heading. "What type of apology i
VINCENT POV All I could see was red as I saw Caleb and Anna together. How dare he not listen to me after I warned him to stay away from Anna, he still went and hung out with her and was even holding her hand. I watched Anna scurry into her class after Caleb said something to her,as if he didn't care about my warning Caleb walked closer to me with his hands stuffed into his pocket. The nerve he has to cross me like this. I clenched my fists as I took steps towards him and we stopped in front of each other. I was even more pissed when I saw the full look on his face as if he didn't know what he did. "You don't listen to me do you? You really want to see what I'll do right?" I asked him while stabbing my finger at his shoulder. "Don't touch me." He said calmly as he held onto my wrist. This was why I disliked him. That never changing calm expression in his face that conceals the snake he was. Angry at him touching me I broke free from his weak hold as I held onto his collar. T
Anna's pov I was worried about Caleb so I waited for him after school and luckily I saw him with some of his friends and when he saw me and I told him I wanted to talk to him,he bid goodbye to his friends and we both walked out the school gates. I asked him if anything happened between him and Vincent and he told me that Mr Samuel saw them in the hallway so there wasn't actually much that happened. Tomorrow is the weekend so I wasn't going to walk home with Sarah today because she said she had an appointment with Anthony. I didn't want to ask her what it was. I was glad because I wanted to talk to Caleb,he said that he will walk me home. Caleb walked me half of the way home and even though I told him not to, he didn't listen. I Wondered if it was because of what I told him about Vincent. I shuddered at the thought of Vincent. He really does things too strange for my understanding. Caleb stopped walking when he saw my house in view and I thanked him for waking me home. "Anna,
Anna's pov I was studying and doing my assignments when my phone rang. It was on my desk next to my note book. I use it to search for things that I wasn't sure about during my assignment so I got a call from an unknown number. There was only one person that could call me and it was Caleb,I cleared my throat and picked up the call. "Hello pretty." He greeted his voice was more calm on the phone. "H...hi Caleb how are you?" I stammered nervously even though I was trying to act calm and unaffected by his call which I was literally jumping up in happiness that I got his call. "I am okay I guess." He hummed. "You guess you don't know how you are?". I asked. "I miss you that all that I could think of." He stated and my eyes widened. "W.. what?" I stuttered and I heard him chuckle. "Gotcha." He said while leaving at my embarrassment. Why does he have this much affect on me? Maybe it was because I don't hang around guys,he was the first guy that actually showed this much interes
Anna's povWhat could he actually want for me? Those were the only thoughts that kept going through my mind as I walked behind him. Vincent and I walked to the school fiel.It was quiet there and no one could interrupt us. That was when he finally stopped and turned to face me."How are you?" He started and honestly this was weird and I can't even notice his scrutinizing gaze because I was shaking from fear I could feel my hands shaking beside me. I don't know if he noticed it.He sighed when I gave him no reply.."This would just take a few minutes of your time, there's no need for you to be scared of me that much,it's not as if I did anything wrong." Vincent said but his words only made me more cautious as he took a step closer to me and I took a step back."Stop moving backwards,why is your body shaking so much Anna,I did nothing to you and I won't stop acting so scared of me." He hissed at me and I stood still as he walked closer to me and touched my shoulder and I jolted in surp
10 years later Anna's POV I took a deep breath in as I smiled to my father beside me. Finally the day had come. After the arrangements, crying and shouting, I can say that I am happy now. "Are you ready dear?" Dad asked and I exhaled as I put on a big smile. "Yes dad I am ready." I said as we walked down the aisle. This was the happiest day of my life and seeing my friends, family , relatives all gathered together here was like the best feeling ever. Vincent looked dashing in his tux and his undercut gave him a different look entirely today. I don't know why he decided to cut his hair but it made him look more manly. I got to the altar and I was finally wed to him. ***few months later*** Daniel and Jack came over to pay us a visit. More like Daniel came to complain about how his girlfriend left him after he spent so much money and time on her. I got tired of him complaining. "Stop talking so much Daniel,she left you so just get over it, Jack did tell you that she was jus
Anna's pov I waited till Vincent finished his exams,since I got no threats from anyone he passed and Daniel told me so as well. He hasn't made any comment regarding my breakup with Vincent either he doesn't know or he doesn't care but either way part of me was happy that at least someone was only on my side. The only time that I gained the courage to talk to Vincent was when my brother said he got admitted into college and was preparing to leave. "You should talk to Vincent now before it's too late." Daniel stated "Why do you even care?" I asked. "Because I don't like the state I saw him last,he was trying to hold himself together, I'm just saying that he looks like a shadow, unlike the Vibrant Vincent I know." He said. "I don't care Daniel, this doesn't concern me." "Don't regret your decision Anna." He said as he left. When I finally decided to talk to Vincent the problem began. School had closed and he wasn't receiving my calls.I asked mom if he still came by the Orphana
Anna's pov I didn't see Mira again as Vincent promised and I didn't hear from him again as well, he was taking his final year exam so he was concentrating on that. But part of me thought he would at least put up a small fight but he did not and stayed away from me. Sarah came over to my house two weeks after our break up,we sat on my bed talking when she suddenly asked me why she hadn't been seeing Vincent around me and I told her what transpired. "Why would you do something like that to him Anna, when you know he's going to write his final exams, don't you think that that will at distract him?" Sarah asked and that got me annoyed. "Honestly I didn't care that much to think that far." I retorted. I was angry that she was thinking about how Vincent felt and not me. " If he fails because of you didn't you even think about what would happen?" Sarah asked. "I've already made up my mind that if that happens I would change school nothing more nothing less." I told her. "And are you
Anna's POV. Even though Vincent looked terrifying I needed to stand my ground or I would let this go and I know I can't continue dating him. I was done with that. "You thought I would actually accept your feelings after everything you did to me?" I asked sarcastically. He sighed then his face softened a bit. "Anna please don't do this ,don't hurt me this way , do you me to beg you I will do anything you want so please just listen to me." He pleaded. When threatening me doesn't work he goes back to begging. Vincent is unpredictable at times. "Don't act this way Vincent if isn't befitting of you and please don't embarrass yourself by doing anything silly it won't change my mind,I don't want to stay around you anymore." I told him as I tried to leave. "Anna, wait." He grabbed a hold of my hand and dragged me back. "Don't make me hurt you Anna ,take your words back you can't just tell me it's over without giving me a good reason." He said. "You love me too much to even think ab
Anna's pov I was silent for a while after he said that. "Anna, are you still there? Are you alright?" Vincent asked again. "I am fine." I muttered. "I guess you were a bit shaken up by this ." He sighed. "Don't worry she's not going to scare you like that again and this time she's going to go away for a long time because she's an adult now if she knows what she's doing, she's not some minor that can be controlled or pardoned." Vincent reassured me. I don't care what he was saying. Maybe I don't know Mira personally but I think she just needs help...the type of help I wasn't sure about because she seemed obsessed with Vincent. Had she been following him around all this while? A question I kept pondering. " Sorry I didn't mean for all this to happen, I didn't want to scare you by telling you about her,I thought she had stopped all this madness I didn't know she was still at it." Vincent said. "What actually happened between you and Mira?" I asked because now it involved me and
Anna's POV I gulped as I should frozen to the spot as she made no move to put the gun away. It was as if she didn't even care that she was holding a gun in the middle of a sidewalk. How can she be this calm and unaffected? It felt as if this was something she was used to and that's crazy. Threatening someone with a gun. I have only been dating Vincent for 3 weeks and she already found me so was she watching him all these while and seeing who he was interacting with? Goodness I was scared. Mira took steps closer to me and even though half of my mind screamed and told me to run I stood frozen to the spot, the other half of me was telling me not to try her patience so I won't get shot. She stopped in front of me. "Turn around slowly " she commanded and just as if I was enchanted I did as she commanded and she pushed my backpack to the side and pressed the gun to my back using my backpack to cover part of it. "Walk, you can only stop when I tell you to." She hissed and I starte
Anna's pov Vincent told me he would take care of everything himself but I had to do the other little work which I gladly accepted. During lunch break Caleb was having lunch with his friends and it was confirmed. We headed to the cafeteria and Vincent handed me over a cup of liquid but I knew it almost made me puke. "What is this?" I asked him. "I don't know what that is, I asked someone to get it." He said. I got to where Caleb and his friends were sitting, Vincent behind me and before he could ask what I wanted I poured the liquid inside the cup on him and it spilled all over his clothes and I moved back as the foul smell invaded my nose. He stood up fuming in anger and I hid behind Vincent. Well I might as well make use of my sheid hehe. "Are you insane Anna?" He yelled thunderously at me as Vincent ignored his yelling and took pictures of him. When he tried attacking Vincent just one word from him stopped him. "I might just pay your Dad a little visit. I am sure we would
Anna's POVI guess Vincent is a responsible person. If not , mom would not have accepted him easily. I think she had known him for a long time." This is a date right?" I asked him."Oops I forgot, would you go out on a date with me Anna?" He asked and I rolled my eyes at him."Isn't it a little too late to ask me that?" "I forgot to ask the minute we were out the door." He replied"Yes I would go out on a date with you Vincent." I replied and he held onto my hand and entangled it in his." Instead of going to the movies, why don't you just take a stroll around,I don't think we have to go somewhere for a date." I suggested.Even though we were dating now I didn't want to go anywhere far with Vincent,it's not that I don't trust him but I just don't want to get alone with him."But I want you to take you somewhere nice." Vincent agrued."We can go another time, I want us to get to know each other. I know a nice cafe around here. Can we just go there?" I asked with puppy eyes."Fine." H
Anna's pov Good thing that my father wasn't around. It was my mum. She was cool to a level. I walked closer to the door. " I thought you said you would tell me where we would meet later." I said to Vincent. "Anna, stop being unfriendly to guests." Mum shushed me as she told Vincent to come in. I moved aside as Mum let Vincent in. Vincent thanked her and sat down on the couch in the living room with Daniel who was staring at him as if he had grown another head. Vincent greeted Daniel and he muttered a response. I guess he wasn't expecting that to happen. Mom asked Vincent if she could get him anything and he told her no, that he just came to see me and that another day he would accept the offer. They were acting as if they knew each other. As they both conversed and ignored my existence. "Do you know his mom?" I asked her. "Who doesn't know Vincent?" She asked . " He helps out at the orphanage near our church." Mom replied and I was like what? Vincent helps people? The
