Bella's POV After the evening that I had with Arthur, I definitely did not see this coming. I knew I was bad luck and bad things were prone to happen to me. But I think what made them understandable and bearable was the fact that most times, I had something good lined up to happen to me. In more clear terms, for every bad luck that happened to me, I had something good waiting for me. The only downside to the entire thing was the fact that the good things most times never amounted to the bad ones and they always took time. So tell me why the hell, something bad had to happen, immediately I had a breath of fresh and good luck?I knew something was off when Arthur drove into my compound. I had no idea why, but I just couldn't shake off the feeling that something was wrong. The air was damp and thick with suspense and even the clouds seemed to darken with each passing second. Gray clouds rolled over and I took it as a bad sign. “You're overthinking it.” Arthur had said when I express

I couldn't believe my ears. No matter how hard I tried to convince myself that I hadn't just heard what I had, it still didn't work. But somehow, even after hearing it, and clearly too, I still refused to believe it. I couldn't. There was no way I could. Why would I in the first place? Because it didn't sound like her, at all. It didn't sound like Sabrina at all. Perhaps my mind was playing a trick on me. I'd been stressed, mentally especially, and it would be no surprise if it had gotten to the point where I was hearing things and making up scenarios in my head. It happened, right? So perhaps that was what had just happened, because I knew Sabrina, and there was no way she would have said that. Right? For some strange reason, the more I asked myself that question, the more anxiety swirled in the pit of my belly. I couldn't help but feel like I already knew the answer, but for some strange reason, I just couldn't bring myself to answer it. I pressed my eyes shut as I allowed the
WILLOW“Could you move that a little to the right, please?” A frown made its way to my face almost immediately. They’d done what I asked them to do, but it wasn’t looking how I’d pictured it in my head. Gesturing to the vase, I motioned to the left. “No, take it back a bit. Yes, a little to the left.”I stifled a groan the moment they were done. It still wasn’t right. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t get the perfect position to keep the vase. “That’s fine.” I sighed, finally giving up. The nerves were getting to me. “Just leave it as it is and make sure everything else is perfect. Nothing must go wrong tonight. Do you understand?” “Yes, ma’am.” The maids nodded in unison before dispersing to get everything else done. “You.” I pointed to another maid. “Make sure these glasses are sparkling before I get back.” I ran my thumb over the rim of a glass nestled on the buffer table. From where I stood, it looked clean enough, but I wanted everything in there to shine. Tonight must be
The crowd roared behind me as Bennett grabbed a hold of the ball flying towards him. He caught it with so much precision I found myself grinning from ear to ear at such a mundane thing to do, to me that is. Without further ado, he lunged towards the end zone as he swiftly dodged the opposition deftly coming at him."Go, Bennett, go!" I winced as screams from beside me pierced through my ears, disorienting me for a second. I snuck a glance at where the sound came from and it suddenly made sense. Just a few feet away were the school's cheerleaders, headed by the one and only; Emily Sinclair. Her perfectly blonde hair swished from side to side and I found myself staring at her way longer than I planned to. Shimmery make-up complemented her ruby-colored lips as she wore the widest grin the human face could produce. The fuzzy ends of her huge pom-poms tickled parts of her neck and collarbone as she hopped from one foot to the other, doing well to cover the extravagant v-neckline of her
