MY BULLY IS PSYCHO
CHAPTER FORTY FIVE
ISABELLA.
I turned around slowly to see the presence of the persons I had been trying to avoid.
Miranda and her best friend Hailey.Judging by the expression on their faces, it appeared they didn't overhear Jordan's and Matt's conversation or perhaps they didn't find the sight of him holding hands with Matt as anything odd.
I met Miranda's hate filled gaze , well she had always hated me, it wasn't anything new, I just wasn't in the mood for a fight, the only thing I wanted to do was to find Ace and they were both currently blocking my path.
Hailey walked over to Jordan, her gaze falling slowly on Matt who was looking downright uncomfortable.
"Why do you hanging out with this loser lately, don't tell me you two became friends. No way! " She spoke this staring at Matt with a demeaning expression.
Her arms
MY BULLY IS PSYCHOCHAPTER FORTY SIXISABELLA.He was done, I realized I needed to say something, if I didn't, who knows I might find it difficult the next time I would want to approach him.But what should I say?All the ideas I got since yesterday were nowhere to be found."W.. Well, Ace, I was wondering if uh.. you might drop by at my house l..later... " My words faltered when his gaze found mine, I could read the surprise and uncertainty there."It is my mom, It's been a long time since she saw you around, so she thinks something is wrong between the both of us, so... " I allowed my words to trail off, my knees felt a little weak under his intent stare.It wasn't a complete lie though, mom had been asking since the past few weeks if we both had a fight and why he hadn't come over except that first day.My breath constricted
MY BULLY IS PSYCHOCHAPTER FORTY SEVENISABELLA.My next breath got stuck in my throat, my gaze swept through him in one glance, he was dressed in his usual outfit, a dark leather jacket, T-shirt, and jeans, looking every bit the bad boy.Bad boys had never attracted me, I always had preferred something safe anytime, until now.My heart missed a bit when I found that metallic silvery gaze again, he had never looked so good to me as he did now.I noticed he was studying me in the same way and felt myself blush, his gaze lingered on my chest and I flushed even hotter, he definitely noticed.Now I felt plainly stupid, but it was too late to regret it now."Are you ready? " His voice snapped me out of my mini trance.Nodding, I followed his trail to where his expensive looking car was packed, I felt a little breathless an
MY BULLY IS PSYCHO CHAPTER FORTY EIGHT ACE. I pushed the door closed behind me, then plunged directly on the couch.I couldn't remember the last time I have ever felt this light hearted and free, the little time spent with Isabel made me felt as if I had no other worries in the world. The movie we were supposed to watch together didn't go as planned, she had at least agreed to allow me to take her home, it wasn't as though I had given her much choice, especially when I had to force her into the car back with me. A light chuckle escaped my mouth at the memory of her beet red embarrassed expression. She had always done silly things, it appeared that part about her hasn't changed. I stuffed out the neat white stockings from my jeans pocket, I was definitely keeping it as a souvenir, I wouldn't let her forget this moment too easily. "Is something s
MY BULLY IS PSYCHOCHAPTER FORTY NINEISABELLAI took a step backward so he could enter inside the living room, I took note of his super hot appearance and felt the breath rush out of me, at this moment, I forgot the reason why I had been so embarrassed to see him."You didn't answer my calls" He stated, his penetrating gaze boring into mine."And you also turned off your cellphone? " He asked again, this time taking a step towards me until there were only a few inches between us, was it just me, or did he sound upset?"I was worried that something might have happened "He came here because he was worried about me? Maybe I should have at least answered his calls, but back then....."W..well I Um... " My words trailed off, my brain was completely scarce of any excuse to give.I sucked in a sharp breath when he placed both of his hands on my shoulders, straightening down so our noses were almost touching. "I ca
MY BULLY IS PSYCHOCHAPTER FIFTYISABELLADinner was quiet and boring, I had been stuck in my thoughts and worries. I took a quick doubtful glance at Ace as I escorted him to where his car was parked, wondering if I should let aloud the question that had been nagging at the bottom of my mind.We reached his car, he turned around to face me and I noticed a slight frown pulled on his face."Is something wrong Isabel, you've been awfully quiet "He had noticed?Dragging a deep breath, I feigned a bright and casual expression which was the opposite of what I felt, my insides were a fluttering mess of nerves."It's nothing, you know, with the exams coming around, I'm just a little stressed out." I let out in a huff.A soft concerned expression went across his face before he cracked a half smile."Don't worry, I'm sure you will make it "
MY BULLY IS PSYCHOCHAPTER FIFTY ONEISABELLA**The curious stares and whispers were something I would never get used to, each time Ace drove me to school it was always like this.Sometimes they spoke loud enough for me to hear, just like now.' Another week and he is still with her.'' She is by far the longest, who would have ever thought he would settle for someone like her, who knows, she might be giving him something special? 'As much as I tried to ignore their words, it sometimes made me feel as if I was not worthy of being Ace's girlfriend.I bit my bottom lips doubtfully, staring at his profile, his expression didn't make it appear as if he had even heard their words at all.Something special? I doubt anything was outstanding about me unless they were talking about....Mom's words from a few days ago replayed in my head.Our rela
MY BULLY IS PSYCHOCHAPTER FIFTY TWOACE**"Fine, can you let go now? I'm embarrassed to death" She murmured, wiggling against me, her eyes directed at nowhere in particular, perhaps checking if there was any glances in our direction, I doubt there was. Not with the drama her friend was playing out. Not that I give a damn if we were the sole center of their attention, she was my girl and they could all go to hell with whatever they thought. The sweet fragrance of her hair teased my nostrils, she smelled like fresh lemons."Not a chance, I quite like you in this position " I quipped with a smirk , with one hand grabbing an apple from her table, my other hand keeping her in position.Her cheeks flushed a light shade of pink which earned a light chuckle from me, I don't think anyone could ever look so adorable as she did.She looked ready to bolt if I mistakenly let go of the arm wrapped around her , but there was no cha
MY BULLY IS PSYCHOCHAPTER FIFTY THREEISABELLA**He stepped into the kitchen, his gaze hard and unwavering, my heart pummelled hard against my chest with each step he took until he got to where we stood.He didn't cast a glance in his mom's direction at first, that intense gaze had me pinned where I stood.Confusion. Hurt. Anger and betrayal were the emotions I could recognize burning in those orbs."What does it mean? What were the both of you saying ?" He clenched out, his gaze flickering through his mom and then me."When did you come in? " His mom spoke, wearing a shaky smile but his expression didn't ease, if anything it grew even more sour."I'm asking what all of that mean, dad is undergoing surgery in a few days? When did all of these... " He trailed off, the bitter tone radiated heat out of him"Ace...
MY BULLY IS A PSYCHO EPILOGUE. * *ACE Six weeks later "Ace! What are you doing here? "She cried in a hushed tone, then snapped a hand over her mouth as though she had just realized how late in the night it was.Her eyes were wide in as she stared at her open window through which I had entered. It wasn't the first time, I still wonder how I manage to catch her by surprise each time. "I'm here to see you " I stated the obvious. " But you said goodbye to me some hours ago, with this habit of yours, you should really become a thief. ""I already am, I stole your heart remember?" She rolled her eyes at my statement and a mischievous smirk spread across my face as I plunged and relax on the softness of her bed.She closed the windows and started to approach me. She was quite a sight with her glossy brown hair scattered all over the place, her toes peeking out through the thin fabric of the satin pajamas she wore.
MY BULLY IS PSYCHOCHAPTER SEVENTY ONEISABELLA**It was quiet and completely dark when we entered inside, I heard the sound of the switch clicking, then the bright lights were turned on. My eyes could finally locate Ace, after a quick dinner at a fancy restaurant and driving around town for the past three hours, we were here at his place. I remembered when his mom had left my house earlier, she had that she somewhere to be, I had just assumed she had returned home. "The lights are off, I think your mom might have gone to bed " I whispered, just in case she had gone to bed, I didn't want to make any noises that would disturb her, I doubt I would though, considering how huge the entire house was. "She isn't home...She's spending the night at the hospital with dad " Ace spoke, seeming as though he added the last part of his statement after giving it second thought. It all but indicated that even though he didn't talk abo
MY BULLY IS PSYCHOCHAPTER SEVENTYISABELLA.**"H..how is this p..possible?" I stuttered in stunned disbelief but got no response, except Ace's soft chuckle. The papers in my hands were saying that some Isabella Joanna Morison has been given a scholarship to study fine arts at their university. It couldn't possibly be me, first off, I hadn't even submitted my applications there. "But I never sent my applications there, and there's also no way I could have been given a scholarship at that!." I blurted, raising my doubtful expression to Ace, and then room who spoke the next moment. " You didn't apply, someone else did it for you "At her words, my gaze flew in Ace's direction to meet his stare. Several thoughts were rampaging through my mind at this moment, this had been the reason why his mom had mentioned us leaving town for college? I had thought she had been mistaken about it. Olivia had also mentioned to me earlier t
MY BULLY IS PSYCHOCHAPTER SIXTY NINEISABELLA**"Happy birthday to you....!""Happy birthday to you...!" She chanted loud and continuously until I had no choice but to shut my ears closed with my palms."Your singing is really horrible! You should never dream of becoming a singer in the future "That was enough to shut her up and I was met with her glower. Ignoring the scowl on her face, I snatched the gift box in her hands, since it was meant for me, why wasn't she giving it to me straight away?"You have to take it easy! You'll ruin such a beautiful wrap... " She gave up when she saw that I had already recklessly torn through the small wrapped box she had handed to me. The once beautiful ribbons were now lying in a messy state on the living room floor, and also on the couch on which the both of us sat.I opened the small box to see a pair of beautiful white pearl earrings
MY BULLY IS PSYCHOCHAPTER SIXTY EIGHTISABELLA**"Feeling better?" His voice broke into my thoughts. I nodded, turning my head from the window to look at him, flashing him a brief smile."We are here " He muttered under his breath as he steadily pulled the car to a stop just behind the local bookshop as I had told him earlier that I wanted to buy some books. The lady inside greeted us with a broad smile as we stepped inside.I walked around each shelf for at least five minutes, I couldn't decide on which book to buy, my savings were limited, I haven't bought a birthday gift for Ace yet.A quiet sigh left my mouth as I eyed the books greedily.Is there a way I could take the entire shelves back home with me..... without having to pay for it?. I guess the lady out there would have something to say about that.Lost in my thoughts, I was barely aware of Ace standing behind me until his voice sounded dangero
MY BULLY IS PSYCHOCHAPTER SIXTY SEVENISABELLA.I was staring into Ace's grey eyes. He inched closer towards me, the hand on my shoulders continued resting in the same position .I slowly straightened to a sitting position, dragging my knees upward to rest under my chin.How he appeared here in front of me almost seemed miraculous, I had declined his call earlier, but still , he was the person I wanted close to me at this very moment ."How did you get here ? Just now , weren't you ..." My words trailed off as my eyes darted to the phone I had turned off which was still lying carelessly on my bed ."You didn't respond , then you turned off your phone , of course, I had to come or what do you think? " His gaze was unreadable, but since he didn't ask me the reason I refused his calls, I could only assume that he already knew everythingI swallowed hard and averted my gaze from his deep compelling
MY BULLY IS PSYCHOCHAPTER SIXTY SIXISABELLA.**Mom and Liz wouldn't give up with the decoration plan, their talks about what to buy and what not to were beginning to make my head spin. Olivia wouldn't stop texting me about dresses and shoes she found online, I guess I was the only one who wasn't really excited about my birthday which was coming up the day after tomorrow. I've been so stressed out in these past few days, I especially had never felt sixty years older as I did today. I haven't gotten a gift for Ace since we coincidentally share the same date, I figured that I could do that tomorrow.I was too tensed to do anything today, except waiting ....And waiting ....And more waiting.Our final exams had come and gone by in a blur, Olivia received her admission letter from the college she had applied for some days ago, just as I knew she would.The local college had been approved my application, I didn't accept it yet becau
MY BULLY IS PSYCHO CHAPTER SIXTY FIVE ISABELLA School was kind of different in the next few days, and I would say that it got a whole lot better. I could surely get used to not having my path blocked each time, it was also nice not having to look behind my shoulders each time.It came as quite a shock when Hailey had approached me earlier today, apologizing for all the troubles she had caused me, she had blamed everything on Miranda and had seemed quite sincere in wanting to become friends with me. I hadn't been sure of what to tell her, Olivia had been the one who took matters into her hands by telling her off. I searched around for Ace with my gaze, but he was nowhere around to be seen, I took the space beside Olivia quietly.The last week had been very tough for him, with his dad's surgical operation. I could still remember the look of absolute worry in the gaze in those long seventy two hours before the doctor had com
MY BULLY IS PSYCHOCHAPTER SIXTY FOURISABELLAI gasped slightly at his warm touch on the small of my back, my eyes fluttered close when he brushed a soft kiss on my neck, sending a fluttery jolt to my stomach.I couldn't help but think that he had never touched me this way before."I love you Isabel " He whispered in between kisses that snatched the breath out of me. It felt surreal, it was magical, a delicious dream I didn't ever want to wake up from.Maybe it was his seductive voice as he said those words, or perhaps the gentle way his fingers worked on my skin, the only thing I was sure of was that I was long gone. I was a bunch of nervous mess inside I sure as hell didn't know what I was doing when I allowed my palms to caress the taut skin of his chest, the only thing I could be sure of was that, I didn't want this to stop, I needed this as badly as I needed my next breath.He pulled away, but it was only for a moment as his s
