Chapter 3: The Break-Up
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56I sat on the couch of their living room, with my constant lip-biting and fidgeting hands. Liam had lit up the fireplace before us, as the warmth it emitted caused my mind to feel at ease. Thrusting my hands nearer to the fireplace, I rubbed them together and noticed Liam standing at the side of my eye. I flicked my eyes towards him, as he handed a glass of water to me.
"Thank you," I mumbled, taking it and chugged it down my throat.
"Is there something wrong?" Liam asked and settled on the seat beside me.
I scoot over to make enough room for him, as I tugged a faint smile. The tears were welling in my eyes, and my chest was tightening. I gripped the glass I was holding, making my knuckles turn white.
"My mom and dad found out about my pregnancy," I blurted, a lump started to form in my throat as I gulped.
Mom and Dad were never in favor of my relationship with Liam. Nevertheless, I still p

A few of the clinic's nurses went by in front of us, as I waited in the lobby with Emma beside me. Her hand held mine, as my knee bounced uncontrollably.I had no other people that would accompany me today but her. Mom and Dad were busy in their own agendas, while I detested being around Lindsey. I didn't even want to be close to her; it was making me sick. Emma was the best option at this moment.The nurses kept on throwing us strange glances. Their faces were plastered with plastic smiles, and their eyes trailed to us in judgment. Surely, teenagers being in an abortion center was such a strange thing to do. Even I found it peculiar, and I had no choice but to deal with it. And me being part of the Devaraux clan didn't only make them skeptical, but it made them scrutinize me even more that I wanted to gouge their eyeballs out. I just hoped nobody would recognize me."Are you sure you're really gonna do this?" Emma turned
Queen Of Ace Chapter 5: A Filler
Two weeks had gone by, and I used all those times to get myself collected before the school started on Monday. I'd been self-reflecting lately, as I continued to shake off the trauma I had these past few days. After what happened, my relationship with Mom and Dad drastically changed, and Lindsey was the reason behind it.I had been giving her a silent-treatment. I guess it was what she deserved after all, and I also didn't have some time to waste on her. She was now the center of attention— Mom and Dad were continuously praising her for little things she did as if it would affect me. That was what she wanted after all: attention. She deserved it. I would just watch her until she failed Mom and Dad and she would also be a disappointment.Earlier this morning, I contacted Emma so we could unwind this weekend. I invited her for some mani-pedi, hair treatment, and shopping spree. In that way, I could release all the stress the summer break had caused me and prepare f
Queen Of Ace Chapter 6: Retail-Therapy
I stared at Danny with my arms crossed above my chest and furrowed brows. He was sitting at the edge of the bed, while Emma stared at us with confusion drawn across her face."What happened to you?" I asked, my tone was filled with worry."I have to tell you something." He raked his hair with his large hand, as he rubbed the nape of his neck after. "I'm not sure how I'm going to say this.""Just speak up," Emma demanded.She was now wearing the gold-colored, bodycon dress with sleeves that reached to her wrists. Emma gazed at herself in the mirror, as her face lit up at the sight of her in a more comfortable dress.Looking back at Danny, I stared at him expectantly as he sighed in defeat."Me and Liam," he hesitated to budge, flicking his eyes everywhere around him, "we've had a fight."Danny and Liam barely had a fight, and if they did, it wouldn

The car window slid open, as I peered outside and spotted Emma, strutting towards my car. She held a stack of books in her arms, as her strawberry-blonde hair kept on cascading to her face. She was grimacing, and she seemed like she was dragging her feet along the pathway.I took the large sunglasses off my face, plopping it on the dashboard before opening the car door. Stepping outside, I smoothed the edges of my pleated, black skirt and approached Emma. She was in a haste and just before the books fell out if her brace, I caught it as she tugged a grateful smile."What happened to you?" I asked, grabbing some of the textbooks."Dad made me bring all these textbooks because I needed to study extra hard this time," she answered, her brows were furrowed together."Did you fail in eleventh grade?" I pulled the door of the passenger's seat open and flung the textbooks inside."Nope." She shut
Queen Of Ace Chapter 8: Game To Play
"Hey," I greeted back, putting a hand behind my neck while staring at him.The feature that stood out to him the most was his radiant, emerald eyes and the specks of prominent freckles laying on the bridge of his nose. He had messy ginger hair and a smile that made the corner of his lips crinkle."Are you new here?" he asked, his British accent was thick."Yeah," I simply answered as he nodded in response. Ms. Sullivan's attention was focused on what she was scribbling on the board while the students behind her began to mumble. "What's your name?" I asked, a bit fascinated by him."Nicholas. And you?" He raised his brows and placed a textbook on his desk."Kourtney Devaraux," I responded, feeling the need to state my surname."I think I must've heard about you. But I'm not quite sure.""You heard about me from where?" I asked."News spread
Queen Of Ace Chapter 9: Let The Game Starts
Having to eat breakfast with my parents was a rare thing to happen. It felt odd, given the fact that I barely see them around in the morning. I was used to waking up with them not being around and, suddenly, sitting in front of them was unsettling.I held the spoon tight in my hand and dug it to my oatmeal. I bowed my head, not bothering to peer at them through my lashes."How's school?" Dad asked, as I almost jerked by his sudden budge.Gulping, I sat upright and reached for the glass of water. I drank it down my throat, as I stared at Lindsey who was now ready to boast."I made quite a good impression," she said, plastering a grin.I snickered, hiding my face away so my parents wouldn't notice. Lightly shaking my head, I leaned my back against the chair and cleared my throat."How about you, Kourtney?" Mom asked as she looked at me expectantly."Same as

I couldn't believe her. That fucking bitch always ruined everything for me, what else did she want? I just wanted to strangle her right now. My anger towards her was becoming worse every time, and I was starting to think she wasn't my sister anymore.My nose was flaring, and my teeth were baring from the emotion heightening me. It was beyond infuriating, and she was becoming less human at this point. She was the cause of these uncontrollable thuds in my chest and unbearable anger. I didn't know what to do with Lindsey. I didn't even know what was she trying to achieve by this. That fucking snake."Excuse me," I mumbled, turning on my heels and squeezing through the crowd.Bodies after bodies kept on colliding onto me as I continuously pushed them away. Once I reached the two massive doors, I swung them open and fastened my pace down the hall.It felt like my heart was going to fall out of my chest from ang
Queen Of Ace Chapter 11: Back To Cheerleading
"What the hell does that even mean?" Emma furrowed her brows and tucked a carrot inside her mouth.New students were attracting attention and if we gathered together, then the spotlight was on us and Lindsey would be infuriated. Spotlight meant a lot to me, as much as it was for her. And she would do anything to be in that position because she wanted people to feed her ego. I wasn't going to let her have it. Not when all my parents' eyes only focused on her."You want friendship and alliance with me?" Amanda pointed a finger at herself."Absolutely."Emma shifted from her seat, leaning closer to me and whispered, "Are you serious?""I'm dead serious," I responded before facing Amanda. "Look, I know you're probably thinking what I need from you. It's pretty simple. You tell me all the snide remarks my sister blurted behind my back and that's it.""Are you that desperate and

A/NThis is a bonus chapter for “Queen Of Ace” and probably the last part of this novel. Since I wanted to write a chapter related to Christmas, I came up with an idea to write a Christmas-themed chapter as the very ending. This is still related on Queen Of Ace and the characters are still the same.
Queen Of Ace Epilogue
The second semester had already started and all of the students were now crowding the hallway. We had taken a long break from all the crazy things that happened during the first semester. The dramas diminished, people left, new students entered the school, and hopefully, new beginning. This was the start of something new, something ecstatic and something that would fill everyone with anticipation. I was ready for this day like I was before, and this time, we came back to not start drama, but to fix all the things that should be resolved before we’d taken a break.
Queen Of Ace Chapter 121: You Made It
We all headed in our lockers to shower and change our own clothes to wash off the sweats in our body. As we left the field, almost everyone greeted me congratulations and I felt overwhelmed by the attention that I was getting. Right after Mason asked me to be his girlfriend, I didn’t feel like hesitating, not because of the pressure the attention I was getting dawned on me, but the fact that I wanted Mason to be mine. I took back what I said before that I wouldn’t look at him the same way as I looked at Liam. I took back what I said that we would just remain friends. I took back what I said at the moment when I was still in a relationship with someone else. I took back everything and it was relieving. I got to express my feeling and I didn’t hold back with having the new beginning that I had been longing. I knew Mason was the one for
Queen Of Ace Chapter 120: Champions
It was already the most anticipated day of all the students in Kingsley: the football rematch. We had been training for this the whole day and I couldn’t wait to perform our chants in front of everyone. We were inside of the girl’s locker room, changing to our cheerleader outfit, applying makeup on our face, and tied a ribbon around our high ponytail. Black and white had been the theme color of the Panthers and we decided to change our outfit and gone a little creative so we would stand out. We added some flitters to our uniform and tassels around our skirts to make a beautiful effect when we would perform our cheers. I also told everyone to put a touch of glitter in their makeup so we would be dazzling throughout the game.
Queen Of Ace Chapter 119: Lounge Room
My body still hurt from what happened between me and Mason yesterday in their house. And going to school with a body ache, the Aspirin doing nothing to calm the pain in my body, I had almost regretted the temporary bliss I felt that day. I could hardly concentrate during the exam and my body wouldn’t cooperate during the training. I could barely do a proper stunt and Coach Adriana felt a little worried that I might fail to do the stunt tomorrow when the football game started. We all had been anticipating the special day and I assured Coach Adriana that I would be executing the stunt flawlessly when the football game started. We’d finished all the examinations needed and we proceeded to our training. We had a few dry runs of our new chants and choreography, but through those runs, we barely had mistakes which was a good sign. This just meant

The cheer leaders threw their majorette batons as the others held their pompoms high in the air. They all moved around to the final position as I did my stunt in front once they all froze. I some cartwheels and backflip in the end as what I always did in our routine as Coach Adriana blew her whistle to indicate the end of the training. Once the whistle rang in our ears, we all took a deep breath and dispersed through the field. Plopping myself on the ground, I brought my knees in front of my chest and placed my elbows on my knees. My sweats trickled down to both my forehead and temples as the heat gushed through my body from releasing too much energy. I looked down on the ground, letting the sweat fall on the green grass below me. And when the crisp wind swept against my skin, the heat started to diminish.
Queen Of Ace Chapter 116: One Call Away
We spent half of the day training and the rest of my time was spent with half of the periods after the first ones that I missed. They announced the examination and some of the subjects would be starting tomorrow. They also told us that we would be finishing the examinations before the football game started because they wanted us to enjoy the weekends without worrying about the result of our grades.I was heading
Queen Of Ace Chapter 115: Gossipmongers
The only reason I knew why Sir Richards would get suspended was the fact that I Lindsey had given him a blowjob last time which was out of character. But I highly doubt the school would know about it unless either Caley and I spoke up. We were the only ones who knew about it and we didn’t really plan on sharing it in the whole school. I just used this information to threaten Lindsey so she would stop getting in my way.“So does that mean we wouldn’t be having Psychology class?” Emma asked with a smile on her face.
