My phone started ringing so I went out of the bathroom to pick it up. I held the phone against my ear and listened."I'm outside." Uncle Ian said through the phone and I let out a breath of relief."I'm on my way," I said before ending the call. I went outside and locked the door behind me. When I turned around I found Cole standing in front of me.He placed his hands on my shoulders holding me in place."Let go of me," I said angrily but instead he pulled me into a hug. He pulled back and placed his hands on my cheeks but I ripped them off my skin."Don't touch me again. Don't speak to me again." I said before pushing past him."Liv!" He said in anger."You have no right to be mad!" I yelled at him. "So don't," I warned him."I have every right to be upset. You refuse to listen to me. Your best friend threw herself at me." He said in frustration. "Stop being so gullible." He said."Fuck you!" I yelled before walking to his dad's car. He pulled me back by my arm and I pulled away from
My eyes fluttered open and I saw my mom hovering over me. I looked at her and frowned at the teary smile she was giving me."She's awake Ian call the nurse." My mom said while briefly looking away from me. "Where's Cole?" I asked before trying to sit upright. "Lay down honey." My mom said softly. "Cole isn't allowed in your room until the doctor says otherwise." She explained. "He's outside in the hall.""What? No. You need to keep him away from me." I said and my mom looked away from me. "Mom?" I called and she sighed."I'll see what I can do. It's Cole we're talking about honey, he's not going to leave and you know it." She said before pinching the bridge of her nose."What happened to me?" I asked curiously and my mom pursed her lips together in a thin line."You had a panic attack." My mom said softly. "You haven't had one since-""Ajay's death." I finished her sentence and she came down to place a kiss on my forehead."You didn't lose him too, Liv. He's still here." My mom said
Later that day I was discharged from the hospital. I made sure that uncle Ian made Cole go away because I knew I wouldn't be able to handle seeing him.When we got home the house was quiet. I went up to my room and took a hot shower before getting into my PJs.I went into my mom's room and laid down next to her. She put on a movie before covering me with the blanket.The rest of our weekend flew by and soon it was Wednesday. I pulled on my cheerleading outfit and tied my hair into a ponytail. I slipped into my white sneakers before applying my face cream.I went downstairs and ate a slice of toast before I heard honking outside."Bye, Mom," I said before placing a kiss on her cheek. "Bye Uncle Ian," I said before hugging him from behind and skipping outside.I feel happy today and free. Maybe it's because I haven't seen Cole yet."Morning sunshine." Griff greeted me while holding a milkshake out to me."Morning, thank you," I said before sliding onto the seat. Tyler and Rook were sitti
I sat at the cheerleading squad's table and boy do I regret ever coming over here. It's like we're the monarchy of this school."You look so cute in your outfit," Natalie said and Nina nodded."I still can't believe you fucked Cole," Natasha said and I rolled my eyes at her."For the last fucking time. We did not fuck." I said angrily. She's pushing me and I'm really in the mood to punch somebody in the face."Okay, chill out," Nina said and I just sighed."Oh shit. Am I dreaming?" We heard Brianna ask."What?" We all asked before looking at where she was looking. Oh no."Cole is coming over," Paige said and they started fixing their hair and make-up. No respect. I turned around and faced the Coke in my hand.I know he stopped behind me because everyone in the cafeteria was silent."Can we talk?" Cole asked and I took a sip out of my drink. Didn't I tell him to never talk to me again?"Liv?" He called and I ignored him. "Everybody, listen up!" Cole said and my eyes widened so I took a
"I need space," I said and he let me go. He nodded before walking away from me. "Liv!" I heard Griff calling me and Cole stopped in his tracks. He had a grim look on his face when he turned around. His jaw clenched."What the fuck are they doing here?" Cole asked angrily."We're hanging out," I said blankly. Cole started walking towards the den but I pulled him back by his arm."Don't you fucking dare," I said angrily. "I swear to God I will never speak to you again." I threatened."Fine." He said with flared nostrils before storming outside. Phew...I went into the den and sat on the couch next to Griff. "Who wants to go against me?" I asked and they laughed at me before continuing their game. "I'm serious," I said before grabbing the controller from him."Fine," Griff said before starting the game over. "And spill the tea bitch." He said and I looked at him weirdly."You're full of shit aren't you?" I asked and he shrugged. I told them what happened and by the end of my story, th
I felt somebody gripping my arm before taking me outside. He finally stopped when we were outside and my eyes widened when I saw that it was Cole."Why?" He asked angrily. "Why did you fucking kiss him?" He asked and I stayed quiet. "I would never do that to you Liv." He said painfully."But you did, Cole!" I yelled in his face. "You kissed my best friend, and now you show up together at the mid-year party," I said before running a hand through my hair."You don't love her," I told him in a sure tone."I don't?" He asked with a single eyebrow lifted."No." I shook my head before Cole's lips came crashing against mine. He picked me up so that my legs could circle his torso. He placed me on the hood of his car before lifting my cheerleading skirt."Just tell me when to stop." He said before placing kisses on my inner thighs. I shuddered as I watched Cole remove my thong.He spread my legs on the cold metal beneath me before licking my clit. I moaned out loudly and his tongue started maki
The next morning I woke up to the sound of my alarm. I got up and took a shower. I pulled on my cheer outfit before tying my hair into a ponytail.I suddenly felt my heart skip a beat before a sharp pain shot through it.I gripped my cupboard to keep myself from falling. I frowned while catching my breath. Something's wrong.I went outside into the hallway, Cole wasn't in his room so I went downstairs my mom was crying at the kitchen island while Uncle Ian rubbed her back.Cole stood at the glass wall staring outside with his hands in his hair. I frowned deeply before running downstairs."What's wrong?" I asked wildly."Liv-" My mom said painfully."What's going on?" I asked in fear."It's Jade she committed suicide." My mom said and the world stopped around me. My breathing stopped and I started crying."No!" I screamed. "No! Jade!" I cried in pain. "Why would she do that?" I sobbed."Liv wake up!" My mom yelled and I violently sat upright in bed."Oh my god mom." I cried and my mom f
Later in the evening, I went home, even though I didn't want to leave Jade alone I "had" to be at home."We need to tell you, guys, something." My mom announced to Cole and me and Uncle Ian nodded excitedly."Sure go ahead," I said while standing as far away from Cole as possible. He ate me out in public so I don't trust him right now."We got the deal in Russia." My mom said and my eyes widened."What that's great," Cole said blankly while looking at my mom and his dad. "I'm happy for you guys," I said before hugging them."But-" Uncle Ian started."There's a but?" I asked in confusion and my mom nodded."They need us to fly down tomorrow to sign the deal. So we're gonna be out of town for a week, maybe two." Uncle Ian explained."Wait what?" I asked."Sounds fine to me," Cole said under his breath and I glared at him."No parties." My mom told him and he shrugged."When have I ever thrown a party without asking for permission?" He asked and my mom smiled at him."You're right darlin
Cole walked me to my suite and I kissed him goodbye, making sure to savor every moment I had with him."Be good." He smirked at me and I just smiled at him before I entered my suite. I rested my back against the door while staring up at the ceiling in distress.What the hell am I doing? I had sex with Storm last night and now I'm talking about getting back together with Cole. It's like I can't think straight when I'm with him. He's got me wrapped right around his finger.And if he ever finds out about Storm and me all hell would break loose. I'm afraid of what he'll do to Storm when he finds out which is exactly why I won't tell him about it.I unzipped the thick jacket I was wearing and hung it up against the wall once I was done taking it off. I tiredly ran my hands over my hair before I walked into the living room.A knock suddenly came from the door so, I frowned to myself before going back to the door. Cole must've come back."Did you forget something?" I asked as I opened the d
I saw Cole talking to Griff who looked at him in shock. I couldn't make out what they were saying but I'm sure Cole was telling him about the DNA results. Griff dabbed Cole up before he pulled him into a tight hug and I smiled at them from across the room. "Cole?" I called him and they both looked over at me. "Can we talk?" I asked him and he quietly looked at me before he told Griff to excuse us. Griff hugged me before he left the room so, I walked over to Cole. We sat down by the firepit before we looked up at each other. "Please help me understand." I softly told him and he tightly clenched his jaw at my request. "Please, Cole." I uttered before taking his hands in mine. "Ian is not my dad, Liv. You're his daughter. But you're not my sister because Ian and I are not related- at all. I think my mom might have had an affair and lied to my dad- to Ian that I was his. Maybe he knows something. My mom is dead so, I can't exactly ask her about it." He told me so, I shook my head
I sat down next to Storm and he smiled over at me. There's just something about Storm.I want to be with him but I just can't get Cole out of my mind and that makes me feel horrible. "Guys, check the group chat." Austin told us with wide eyes and everyone around the firepit took their phones out. I checked my texts and found that it was principal Clark who sent it. I clicked on the text and my eyes widened in shock. "Oh my god the trip has been extended to a week!" Jade excitedly yelled out. This is great news, this way I'll get more time to clear my head."Ugh, I wish we weren't in Aspen though. This cold ass weather is just not for me." Austin told us and we all nodded in agreement. "I mean I don't even have a man to keep me warm." He whined out before glaring over at everyone in the room and we collectively laughed at his words."What about me?" We heard a familiar voice and everyone turned around in shock. My eyes widened when I saw Rook standing in the doorway. Austin excitedly
Storm unclasped my bra before he tossed it aside and I watched him with lust filled eyes as he pulled his shirt over his head. I slowly ran my hands over his abs and he sat back in his chair while his eyes slowly ran over my body. He suddenly picked me up and my legs circled his torso as he carried me upstairs to a dimly lit bedroom. He shut the door behind us before he placed me on his bed and I seductively started to unbuckle his belt. I took his large erection into my hands before I slowly took him into my mouth. I looked up at him while I slowly started to suck his dick and he gripped my hair into his hand before he started moving my head faster against his length. My eyes started tearing up as he pushed his entire length into my mouth and I coughed when he pulled out of my mouth. He pushed me down on his bed before he widely spread my legs and my pussy throbbed with need.He slowly started to rub my pussy, his fingers sliding between my folds and I moaned out in pleasure. He s
Jade, Austin, Bri, and I sat at a small bonfire outside our villa. It was snowing outside, and we were dressed in thick ski jackets and matching gloves. Principal Clark surprisingly brought us to a ski resort in Aspen. The snow is beautiful but it is also extremely cold and restricting. I mean there hasn't been much going out for us except for the occasional ski activities we've been on today. I suddenly started feeling hungry so, I excused myself from the group and Austin decided to walk with me. We went downstairs in search of a vending machine since all the restaurants were already closed. Austin's phone started ringing and he smiled when he saw who was calling him. "It's Rook." He uttered before he turned his back to me. As Austin started speaking into the phone I laid my eyes on a vending machine. I smiled in relief before I grabbed my wallet from inside my jacket pocket. I felt someone standing in line behind me and I frowned lightly. I guess I'm not the only hungry per
Ryan and I walked into McClaren's together, while catching up with each other. I laughed at something he said as we made our way to the back of the restaurant. Once we got to the final booth I saw Storm sitting there. I frowned over at Ryan and he smiled before taking a step back from me. "You planned this?" I asked Ryan and he nodded at me. "Just talk to him, okay. And if you don't want to talk, just hear him out." Ryan told me so I nodded at him before I sat down across from Storm. "I'm sorry it had to come to this but you weren't answering any of my calls." He told me in an apologetic tone. "Sorry about that." I softly told him. "Don't apologize." He pointedly told me. "I just thought you wanted nothing to do with me. You broke up with me, remember?" I asked him and he nodded at me. "And yet you moved on first." He said and a feeling of guilt washed over me."What did you expect, Storm. At least he was willing to fight for me." I said and he clenched his jaw. "Like you fou
I gave one last glance at Ajay's grave before I left the cemetery. I haven't visited him in a while, I miss visiting him often. I miss the times when Ajay's death was the only source of my pain, when all I wished for was to see him again. But lately I just keep wanting and wishing for more. I walked back to school and got there just in time for the first period. I grabbed my books from my locker and started walking to my class, I felt someone placing their arm around my shoulder and when I looked up I found Ryan smiling down on me. "Hey, stranger." I wrapped my arms around his waist."Stranger?" He questioned with a deep frown settled on his forehead. "Yeah, now that you're on the football team you're too cool to hang out with me." I told him and he laughed lightly. "Liv, you're the one who's been ignoring my calls. I've been looking for you." He told me and I sighed lightly. "That's not true." I told him in disbelief and he raised a single eyebrow at me. "It's not, I would neve
After we were done in the kitchen, Cole and I ate the pasta that we made and decided to sit in the living room. We sat cuddled up on a couch while watching tv. We suddenly heard the microwave beeping, alarming us that our popcorn was done and Cole got up from his seat beside me before going into the kitchen. His phone suddenly started ringing so I frowned lightly before going back to watching tv. His message alert went off and the screen lit up again. I bet it's that Gemma girl. I always knew she had a crush on Cole, she can't leave him alone that's why she's always texting and calling him. Even her dad has his number, I mean what's up with that? I carefully leaned forward and read the text on Cole's phone."Your DNA test results will be available to collect on October 15th 2024."Cole did a DNA test? Is that what he was doing yesterday? I expanded the message but was careful not to open it and the hospital address caught my attention. I heard Cole entering the living room again so I
"And some food." Liv demanded so I immediately nodded in agreement. I'm going to spoil her rotten."Okay, let's go." I softly told her before I placed my arm around her shoulders then we walked over to my car. I opened her door and she thanked me before she climbed into the car.I got in on my side of the car before I started driving and we just started talking about anything and everything. We haven't been this comfortable around each other in a long time. I missed her. Once we were done buying the food and ice cream that I promised her we drove home. After ten more minutes of driving we finally arrived at home so I parked my car in the garage. And just as we got out of the car it started raining outside. We made our way into the house and headed straight upstairs to my room. Liv switched my tv on before she grabbed a shirt from my closet. I got our food ready while Liv climbed under the blankets on my bed. I pulled the hoodie I was wearing over my head before throwing it aside. I
