Cole's POV"Yes," I said while looking at my dad. "Sit down." He said and I sighed in frustration before sitting down. "What is it?" I asked and his fist clenched. "I wanna talk about your mom." My dad said and I froze up for a second before frowning. "Well, I don't want to," I said blankly. "Cole--""Did Liv ask you to do this? What you couldn't decide to talk to your son on your own without someone else asking you to?" I asked and he shook his head. "Just listen to what I have to say." My dad said calmly and I nodded before sitting back in my chair and glaring at him. "I loved your mum, I did. And I miss her." He said before shifting in his seat. "I thought that if I ignored it I wouldn't have to feel the hurt that comes with losing your wife." He said with furrowed eyebrows. "I'm sorry for what that did to you. All I can do now is apologize and try to be better for you." My dad said and I blankly looked at him. "Good for you," I said shortly before getting up from my seat.
"I'll get out first. Please don't get out at the same time as me because we can't show up together at places anymore." I told Cole and he frowned at me. "Why not?" He asked in confusion before running his fingers through the curls on his head. "Because we're not together anymore," I said and he frowned. "And what does that matter? Can we just go?" He asked and I sighed before climbing out of the car. I remember what those girls were saying about me the other day in the bathroom. Now they'll just start another rumor about me. Cole walked next to me and I briefly looked up at him. The bonfire came into view and we walked towards it. Griff dabbed Cole up as soon as we reached him. The music suddenly sounded much louder and everyone was dancing wildly along with the music. I'm not drinking tonight."Hey, Liv!" Nina called me so I placed my hands into the pockets of Cole's cardigan before walking over to Nina and the cheer squad. "Liv!" Pai*e yelled before hugging me and taking a self
Storm moved in front of me to shelter me from Cole. "Cole stop!" I heard Paige yelling after Cole. "What are you doing alone with him?" Cole asked me in anger and I frowned at him. "We were just talking, why are you so angry?" I asked him and he glared at Storm. "I know that you've been feeding her lies all night long but it ends now. I won't allow you to ruin her life too." Cole told Storm and he shook his head at Cole. "That was an accident, Cole. And you were in on it so who are you to judge me?" Storm angrily asked Cole. "She was my friend and what you did to her was fucked up," Cole said and I frowned deeply. "Who are you talking about?" I asked in confusion. "My dead ex-girlfriend. Yeah, Cole is still blaming me for what happened to her." Storm said while glaring at Cole. "You're good at this, lying and manipulating people. Just like your dad." Cole said and Storm threw a punch at his jaw. I gasped in shock when Cole punched Storm back. "Griff! Stop them!" I y
"Liv, I don't want you to hang out with that boy anymore." My mom said angrily and my eyes widened. "He wasn't even decent enough to walk you to the front door, yet he was ready to make out with you in his car." My mom said and I looked at her in disbelief. "We wanted to be in the car and you didn't give him the chance to walk me to the front door-" I started but I was cut off by Uncle Ian. "Look how she's defending him. I agree with your mom, Liv. This boy can't be trusted." He said and I glared at him in anger. "Right? Because you're all team Cole. You don't even know Storm and you're judging him. That's really messed up." I said before leaving the kitchen. "Liv!" I heard my mom call after me but I ignored her before running upstairs. I closed my bedroom door behind me before slumping onto my bed. My phone made a ping sound so I took it out of my bag. I saw that I received a message from Storm and smiled instantly, I opened the message before reading it. Van Gogh or Monet?
"Where's Cole?" I asked my mom. "I don't know, he's probably out somewhere." She said before turning to face me. "So how was school?" She asked me. "As usual," I replied shortly. "Nothing interesting happened?" My mom asked and I frowned before shaking my head. "No, it was kinda boring." I lied through my teeth. "And skipping class? How was that?" She asked and my eyes widened. "How did you even--""Your homeroom teacher called me, she said you never showed up for school." My mom said and my heart started pounding faster in my chest. "Mom you wouldn't understand," I whined. "Oh, I understand. You didn't feel like going to school so you decided to just skip. That's not how things work. If you skip class one more time-- this is so out of character for you Olivia. I swear to God Liv--""Fine Mom I won't skip class again," I said and she sighed before glaring at me. "Were you with Storm?" She asked angrily. "No. I was with my friends." I said the last part softly. "Your friends?
I watched Storm as he took the last bite of his BLT. He's so hot. Storm got up from his chair before going over to the empty canvas across the room, he sat down on the chair behind it before looking at me in anticipation and I sighed nervously before getting up from my chair. I sat down across from Storm and I watched him taking his brush out. He started gently stroking his paint brush across the canvas while briefly glancing up at me. "You're probably wondering who the girl is that Cole and I were talking about the other night." Storm said and I shook my head. "You don't have to tell me if you're not ready." I told him and he nodded. "I'll never be ready but I have to tell you." He said before dipping his paint brush into some paint. "Her name was Mia and she was my girlfriend at the time. We were in our sophomore year. One night we were out with our friends at an abandoned house and we ended up playing truth or dare." Storm said before sitting back in his chair. "One of our
Storm pulled into our driveway and my eyes widened when I saw blue and red lights flashing everywhere."Holy shit," Storm said in disbelief.I jumped out of his car before walking through the cop cars. I spotted my mom, she was busy talking to two policemen."Liv!?" She yelled when she saw me and I stood there frozen. Storm came walking up to me before looking down at me in concern."Don't tell me you were with him all night." My mom said angrily as she stopped in front of us and I placed my hand into Storm's."I was," I said pointedly."And what do you have to say for yourself?" My mom asked Storm."Good evening miss. Can we ask you a few questions? A police officer asked me and I frowned at my mom before nodding at the man."I'll be right back." I told Storm and he nodded before leaning back against the front of his car."Miss are you hurt in any way?" The police officer asked me."No. Storm would never hurt me." I said pointedly."At any point of the night were you touched inapprop
I sat on Storm’s lap before greeting Griff and Tyler. “So, I take it that the date went well,” Griff said and I smiled. “It did,” I said before looking at Storm and he smiled at me. “How are you feeling?” He asked me in concern, and I shrugged before sighing deeply. “Better now that I’m with you guys,” I said Griff pinched my cheek, and I hissed in pain. “Sorry, did I hurt you?” Griff asked in concern, and I lightly shook my head before laughing it off. “Got you,” I told him and he looked at me in disbelief. “So not funny, bro.” He told me and I smiled softly. My cheek doesn’t hurt that bad only when someone touches it. I can’t believe my mom hit me. And this morning she didn’t show any remorse for what she did, instead, she tried to gaslight me into thinking that Storm puts my life in danger. It’s like I don’t know who she is anymore. Why is she so against me and Storm dating? Talking about Storm I still need to find a way to tell him that I saw his dad with another woman.
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
Cole's POVI sat in my car as I've been stuck in traffic for the past hour. If I'm lucky I might make it back in time to go support Liv. I know I'm letting her down but what I'm about to do is for the both of us. The cars in front of me slowly started to move again so I sat upright before driving out of town and in the direction of the city. After a lengthy drive I finally parked my car in the hopital parking lot. Before I climbed out of the car I grabbed my backpack from the backseat and locked the door behind me. I looked down at my watch before walking to the frontdoor of the hopsital. I have about two hours left to run my errands, then I have to head back if I want to be in time to see Liv compete. I entered the crowded hospital building before entering the elevator. One of my friends back in Boston's dad is a doctor at this hospital, and knowing that I'd come home this weekend I made an appointment with him. I stepped out of the elevator as soon as it stopped on the fifth fl
