Cole's POV.
I went over to my locker and opened it before taking my books out for the first three periods. I shut my locker when I was done and walked down the hallway.
"Yo, Cole!" I heard Griff calling from behind me. "That fight last night was fire." He said with a smile on his face and I just shook my head at him.
"Where is Tyler?" I asked curiously and Griff shrugged.
"So he's trying to get with, Liv?" Griff asked me and I just blankly looked at him. "Then he deserved it."
"What's up, Cole, Griff," Shane asked as he started walking down the hall with us.
"Sup," I said briefly.
"I heard you hooked up with Stacy last night," Shane said and I just shrugged.
"How was she?" Griff asked me and I smirked briefly.
"Too easy," I said and they laughed at my words.
"No shit," Shane said through his chuckles. And I couldn't help but smile as we walked out of the school building. We walked across the grass and went to sit at a table there.
Every single girl that walked past us smiled at me but I didn't take an interest in any of them. Soon the rest of the gang joined us at the table. And all they could talk about was their random hookups from last night.
I zoned out of the conversation and bathed in the sun.
"Bro, your sister is fucking hot," Chris said and the other guys agreed with him. My jaw clenched and I sat upright.
"Liv is off limits," I replied blankly.
"How would you feel if I said that about your sisters?" I asked them and they pulled their faces in disgust.
"Chris back the fuck off," Griff said while glaring at Chris and I just shook my head at them.
"We should throw a party tonight," Shane suggested and the boys agreed with him. "Aren't your parents out of town?" He asked me and I raised an eyebrow at him.
"I don't do parties," I replied blankly.
"Bullshit," Griff said before smiling broadly. "You're the legend of the school. Girls go to parties just to see you there." He said and I looked at him as if he was an alien.
"Well it's not happening," I said and they groaned in disappointment.
The bell suddenly rang and we all went back into the school building. We went into our homeroom class before sitting in a group.
"Good morning class, the inseparables." Mr Pierce said referring to us so I hit Griff's arm. He smiled at me before looking at Mr Pierce.
"What up, Dick?!" Griff asked and the class erupted into laughter.
"Are you done, Mr Anderson?" The teacher asked and Griff smiled at me before smiling at the teacher.
"Sure thing, Dick." He said and the class laughed once more.
"And my name is Dennis by the way." Mr Pierce said which only made the class laugh even more.
A knock suddenly came from the door and everyone looked to where the sound came from.
"Come in." Mr Pierce said and the door creaked open.
"Miss Reed." He said and I sat upright in my seat.
"Cole." The kids started calling my name and nudging me. I watched her every move as she walked towards the teacher. A few whistles came from some of my classmates and I just rolled my eyes at them.
"Mrs. Beck would like to discuss this term's lit test for the seniors with you," Liv said seriously.
"Mrs Beck is the hot one right?" He asked and Liv just blankly looked at him.
"Easy, Dick!" Griff said in a teasing tone and everyone laughed at the look on the teacher's face.
"Just don't tear the place down while I'm gone." He said before leaving the classroom with Liv. A few more whistles were heard and I knew they were just trying to get a reaction out of me, since I'm her "brother" God I hate that word.
"Relax guys. The little sister is off limits." Shane said and I raised my eyebrow at him which caused him to instantly shut up.
"Careful, you might be the next Ty," Jake said and the rest of the gang laughed at Shane who rolled his eyes at us.
Lamar took a blunt out of his backpack before placing it between his lips. Josh lit it up and Lamar took a long drag from it before passing it on to the group.
We all laughed when Jake couldn't stop coughing.
"This is some good weed," Josh said before blowing the smoke out of his mouth. Megan opened the windows and Kayla sprayed some of her perfume in the air.
Then the door suddenly opened and revealed the principal. Lamar quickly put the blunt out before going back to his seat.
Everyone acted normal as Mr. Clark fully entered our classroom.
"Is that marijuana I smell?" He asked in suspicion and we all frowned at him.
"Cole?" He called my name and I shrugged at him.
"Oh, the green smell?" Clay some nerdy kid in my class asked and the principal nodded at him. "That's just my science project." He said and Mr Clark instantly believed him.
"As Crawford High's best class out of all the seniors, you're going on a trip this Friday." The principal said and the class erupted into cheers. "You're allowed to bring one person along, or you could just come alone." He said with a smile on his face.
"Time to fuck!" Griff yelled and the class laughed at him.
"Get off the table, Griff." The principal said before heading towards the door. "And keep this between us, I don't want the other seniors to get jealous and hate me." He said before leaving our classroom.
"Viral?" Zu asked the class and they nodded in response. She typed something on her phone and everyone got a notification.
"Big T!" Shane yelled. And the rest of the class yelled "Big T!" in response. I sat back in my seat and thought of who I could possibly take with me.
Fuck I need a girlfriend before the bonfire. I frowned at Griff and Shane who were twerking on the tables. How did they end up calling this the best class?
The bell rang and we headed to our next class. I saw Liv and Paige Morgan standing by her locker so I went over to them.
Why not ask her if she wants to go on the trip with me now?
"So he got into a fight with Tyler because of me?" I asked Mara our school's journalist and she just nodded her head at me. "See you in trig, Liv." She said before she walked away from me. What the fuck? So he beat up two guys for vibing with me. That could only mean one thing. Cole has some serious anger issues. I went into Mrs. Beck's class for my admin period. I took a seat at her desk because we're practically best friends. "Hey, Livvy." She said before she sat down at her desk. "Hey, Martha," I said tiredly and she frowned at me. "I know that face. What's wrong?" She asked and I placed my head on the desk. "Cole," I whined before sitting upright again. "Your hot brother? How could something so right possibly be wrong?" She asked me and I rolled my eyes at her. "Well he is annoying and he drives me up the walls," I said before groaning. "Okay, Godzilla. I'm gonna send you to Mr. Pierce so that you can blow off some steam." She said with a smile on her face. "That dude
After school I went to Cole's car and stood in front of it. I turned around and rested my elbows on the warm metal and leaned against it. I silently scrolled through my feed before I heard footsteps behind me. I turned around in a swift movement and found Cole looking at me. "Are you okay?" I asked and he shook his head at me. "Yeah, I'm fine." He replied quickly. He's acting weird. He unlocked the car and I instantly climbed inside. "The senior party is tonight at our house," Cole said nonchalantly and I frowned deeply. "You should have a sleepover with Jade or something." He said before smirking at me. "First of all, we're not allowed to have parties, second of all if you're going then I'm going," I said cheekily and he flared his nostrils. "Then you're not allowed to make out with anyone." He replied smugly and I closed my eyes for a long while. "Oh because you'll beat them up if I do?" I asked and he ran a hand through his hair. "Nice skirt." He said and I felt my cheeks
I placed my arms around his neck before placing my lips against his. And he hugged my waist while he slowly started kissing me back. Cole picked me up and my legs circled his torso. I lost myself in our passionate kiss when my back hit the wall and I felt Cole's erection pressing against my lower region. I felt my cheeks heating up when he grabbed a handful of my ass before he started kissing me harder. He suddenly pulled away from me and my eyes were still closed. As I caught my breath I felt Cole gently placing me back down on the ground. "I'm sorry." He said under his breath. "We shouldn't have done that." He added before going back inside and leaving me there to drown in my thoughts. I just kissed Cole. My stepbrother. Then why am I feeling like this? I can't have feelings for him, can I? I ran a hand through my hair before breathing out and going back inside. I avoided everyone who tried to talk to me before I went back upstairs to my room. I locked my bedroom door behind me
I have feelings for Cole.I kept repeating that sentence in my head all morning. And it is driving me crazy, this morning I was ready to confess my feelings for him but then he stopped me. Maybe it was for the best.I can't have feelings for him-"Hey, bestie." Jade interrupted my thoughts before she sat on my lap."Hi, Jade," I said tiredly."You are going on the senior trip with me." She said while holding my face in her hands."There is no way that I'm-" "I already booked your seat on the bus. You already have the room next to mine no refunds-""But-""No buts," Jade said and I sighed in defeat before she pulled me into a tight hug."I am so mad at you right now. But I'm choosing not to lash out." I said and she shot me a bored look."Whatever you're lowkey just as excited as I am to go on the senior trip." She said and I rolled my eyes at her."I'm totally not," I said in a tone that Paige would usually use and we laughed together."Laughing and talking about Paige how did you end
After school Jade and I headed towards the football field and sat on the bleachers. I took a sip from my water bottle before looking at the field.The first team came running onto the field before lining up. And those uniforms, yes lord. I watched Cole throwing the ball causing his muscles to flex.Jade was screaming next to me and I looked at her as if she wasn't okay. "Cheer with me." She said under her breath."No ways." I said before looking back to the boys playing their favourite sport. Cole sexily walked across the field before shouting something at Chris. Chris gestured with his hand and Cole nodded at him.Then out of nowhere somebody tackled Cole. He hit the ground on his side and the other person stood up. My mouth hung open and my heart was ready to jump out of my chest. Cole got up from the ground and threw the guy on the ground. His back hit the grass and the other boys pried Cole away from him."Is that-""Tyler?" I finished Jade's sentence and her mouth hung open. "W
"Are you sure you wanna go to school? If you're not feeling well we can skip the whole thing and have a girl's day." My mom said but I shook my head."No Mom, you have work and I'll be fine," I told her and she frowned at me."Via, you know I would call off work to spend time with you, no matter what." My mom said and I let out a small sigh."I know Mom, but I have to face my problems. I can't run away every time things get hard." I explained to her."Okay, but call me if you need anything. Like anything at all." My mom demanded so I nodded."I will," I said while my mom stopped in front of the school building. I climbed out and waved at her before heading inside."Oh my gosh, Liv." I heard Paige from behind me. Not her too."Paige," I said while turning around to face her."How are you?" She asked with a smile on her face and her three blonde besties glared at me."I'm good and you?" I asked and she laughed for no reason."I'm totally fantastic." She said before lacing her arm with mi
"Let's go," I told Jade and Tyler before getting up. We walked out of the cafeteria together and went to sit outside on the grass instead."A Cole-free life." I sighed while allowing the sun to kiss my face."I don't think so," Jade said and I opened my eyes. I looked to where she was looking and found the football team sitting at a table to our left."What's his deal with you?" Tyler asked in frustration so I just shrugged."He's just protective." I covered for him.I groaned when somebody came standing in front of me."Your shadow is making me cold," I said in annoyance before looking up. "Rook?" I asked in shock and he sat down beside me."Sup guys." He said before crossing his long legs."You're sitting with us?" I asked in disbelief and he nodded."Yeah. Obviously, I can't go sit with my ex-best friends." He said sarcastically."To me they're acquaintances," Tyler said pointedly."I don't understand how he would punch his best friend over a girl," Rook told Tyler."She's not any g
Cole's POV. "Liv!" I called after her as she walked upstairs to her room."Cole." I heard my dad say so my head snapped to where he was sitting. "Get in here." He said blankly so I did as he told me to."What's up, Dad?" I asked and he glared at me before a broad smile spread across his face."Captain of the football team." My dad chuckled while tapping my back. "I'm a proud father." He continued happily."Thanks, Dad," I said blankly."You know when I was your age, I was also captain of the football team. I had the friends, the girls, I had everything." My dad said and I frowned at him. "What I'm trying to say is you need to focus on what matters son. Cherish the things and people that you know will still be there for you in twenty years." My dad said and I just nodded at him."Yeah," I said under my breath."And apologize to Liv." My dad said in annoyance. "I swear you guys are worse than a married couple." He said and I glared at him."Really Dad?""Come on Cole. Don't tell me you
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
