JAXON POV:

I was furious after the incident that had happened with Rosalina. What a heartless person she is who without any hesitation she just accepted all her unforgivable sins. What is wrong with her?! She did not even bother apologizing and rather began rambling in a somewhat psychotic tone. But for some reason, the pain in her eyes was as vivid as the view of scenery before one’s eyes. After I revealed the truth rather than a shocked expression, her face was varnished with disappointment. I shrugged off the thought and continued my journey.

I wanted to clear my mind which was messed thanks to Rosalina. I think going to a bar may help.

JEREMY POV:

It was a hectic day for me. Classes, practice, and assignments were all eating my head out. After a long and comforting shower, I sat on my bed with my phone just to enjoy my leisure time before diving into sleep.

I was scrolling through my social

  • Scars Between Us   CHAPTER 8: The witness to the lie

    Rosalina POV: I was laying down scrolling through my phone when my phone dinged indicating I have received a text. I went to my message box and opened the unknown identity I received the message from. The message said 'Hey, Rosalina. We need to talk.' I was very confused. I quickly replied asking. 'Umm who are you?' I patiently waited for the reply. After waiting for almost 10 minutes, I received a reply. 'I am your classmate. My name is Ivy. I have some proof against the fact that you did not cheat on Jaxon.' I was thrilled. Not only to know that there is proof that I did not cheat on Jaxon but also that there was someone 'FROM SCHOOL' that supported me and believed in me. But I was still not confirmed if she was speaking the truth. So, I asked. 'Why should I believe you? I mean you don't have any proof.' 'Watch

    Rosalina POV:The guy entered the room and looked at me. Both our eyes widened the moment they came in contact."YOU?!?!" Both of us said in unison"So you guys know each other! That's great it will be easier for you to be good friends with us!!" She said excitedlyThe guy was the new guy. The Kai guy. He wanted to be my friend a few days ago but I yet did not accept the offer. I guess it's time."So...looks like you gotta answer my question now." He said smiling."Hmmm." I hummed"What hmmm!! Answer the question!!" He said scolding me like a little kid."What question?" Ivy asked confusedKai explained everything to Ivy. It took a lot of time cause she was not understanding a lot of things. She looked dumb but that's good. At least she won't betray me. After Kai was done he turned to look at me and asked."Okay. Now you! Mind answering?" He asked with curiosity"Well...I would like

  • Scars Between Us   CHAPTER 10: Meticulously misunderstood

    Rosalina POV:I looked up to look at the person and I was shocked. Taking up all my courage I put up an annoyed expression and asked"What are you doing here?" I asked with pure disinterest and irritation evident in my voice"I need to talk to you," He said"Do you need the list of the names of the guys I slept with now?" I snapped"Mind shutting the fuck up and listening?" He retorted"Why are you here Jaxon?" I asked irritated"Okay...My friends came to visit you right?" He asked curiouslyI remember the guys discussing that if Jaxon asks anything about this I will say they threatened me and I did so."You mean to threaten me!" I exclaimed sardonically."Yeah Yeah. Whatever. 'Threaten you'. So they told me you will be leaving after graduation. Is it true?" He asked"Yes?" I said with a weird expression"Why?" He said with a calm voiceI was confused.

  • Scars Between Us   CHAPTER 11: Reluctant

    Rosalina POV: Before I could say anything I felt his body press against mine. His hand snaked around my body while the other one travelled to my cheeks. In a matter of seconds, I felt a soft touch on my lips. It took me a moment to process what was happening. As I froze in my spot, I understood. He was kissing me. I quickly tried to push him away using all my strength and might but nothing worked. He was holding me very tight and my body got weak in his touch. This is what I have been missing for the past few years. The emptiness lingering in me had a sense of fulfilled wishes. I missed him. I missed his touch. I missed the way we used to hang around. I missed the way he used to protect me, love me, and take care of me. I miss him. I didn't realize but my tears started to fall silently and thinking of the memories made me feel hollow. A coat of ager took over me suddenly as I moved to get him off me. All in vain. This guy is bi

    Rosalina POV:The person tapped again on my shoulder. I turned around thinking it was Ivy or Kai"What's wro-" I immediately stopped as I saw the person in front of me"Hey... I heard you're leaving after school ends?" She saidI froze in shock cause I could not process what was going on. She clicked her fingers in front of my face and snapped me back to reality. She chuckled."Typical Rosalina," She saidI was there staring blankly at her. As she was about to say something, someone interrupted her."Lia what are you doi-" She stopped immediately as she saw meIn front of me were my two best friends or should I say ex-best friends Lia and Mae, who stopped talking to me as they thought Jaxon was right. There are two more of my friends, they are Zoya and Yunhee. We were like a squad until the incident took place. Again they did not bother to let me explain and now I don't want to either.

Oh hi" The male spoke awkwardlyTristan was standing in front of me, covered in mud."What happened to you?""Umm.. while I was walking to the destination I stepped on a dog's tail. It got after me.

    Rosalina POV"So what?" I asked"I will be going to the same state to study too," He saidI looked at him in utter disbelief"What a joke," I said and laughedHis expression did not change and remained serious. I looked at him and my expression changed to a miserable one. He suddenly smirked"But why?" I asked still not being able to accept it. Denial was visible on my face."What do you mean by why?" Jaxon asked with a scoff"Why would you be going to the same state as me?!" I snapped at him making him smirk"Already devastated? The answer to your question is, that very country is preferred by most of our parents for education as the best colleges are from that very place" He said as his smirk spread wider, his expression mocking me.I did not speak a word.

  • Scars Between Us   EPILOGUE

    6 YEARS LATER The soothing wind of the autumn brushed past the busy streets. Every moving creature craves to return to the comfort of its house. Except for one person, who sat with his heart warmed up for an arrival he awaited. His eyes wandered from place to place trying to take in every bit of the place, to be able to put it down his memory lane as a remarkable day. A day to remember on days of the missing comfort. Impatience was all he felt, cursing at the time for moving so slow. Showing his full anger towards the roads which delayed the presence of the one he begged to meet. It's been six years. No contact. Both are busy in their own lives trying not to care about each other's lives. When one might have succeeded in the race but the other seemed to have horribly failed. Maybe, he didn't even try to. The atmosphere got comforting and lively the moment his eyes fell upon the café door which opened with a woman coming in with a smile. She smiled at the workers who had returned th

    ROSALINA POV:My heartbeat is increasing with every passing second as I await the waking up of the raven.He fought for me. That's what was lingering in my mind. A witness who had a complete idea of the incident had told us about it. My bruises on the back were being treated. They stung and I hissed in pain."Please be careful," Jeremy said to the nurse who was treating meHe then looked at me with a soft smile which I returned and then looked back to the unconscious figure. We were all very tense about him."Thank you Rosalina" Henry suddenly said"For?" I asked confused as there was nothing to thank me for"For protecting him. If you hadn't shielded him from the hits then his condition would have been worse" He explained and nodded in understanding"You're welcome" I whispered and it was silent for awhileJeremy came up to me and kneeled before me."You...Feeling fine?" He asked awkwardly"Yeah...thank you for asking," I said again looking awayHe nodded and then moved away. Everyon

    HENRY POV:I was passing by the university's open area. I ran out of supply for a pen so I was heading to the store to buy some, but as I was going I heard the commotion. When I go forward to see what was happening, I had to go through the crowd. My eyes widened as I got into the crowd to see what was happening.There was Jaxon with blood running down his head which made his whole face look like a blood moon, getting kicked by a few juniors. He looked like he was having difficulty breathing but was trying his best to fight back. I went forward to stop them only to be hit to the side by one causing me to fall. I frantically looked around trying to think of a way to help. I got up to go and ran to call the others.I ran through the university corridor as fast as I could. Suddenly, I saw Tristan by the locker area."TRISTAN!!!" I screamed causing him to turn flinching"What the fuck Henry-""Jaxon got into a fight and now he is getting beaten up. We need to help" I said in one goTristan

    THIRD-PERSON POV"What?" Rosalina asked as memories of her being the same flashed through her mind"Yeah...Few guys at school sexually harassed her. She could not take the pain and lost her mental balance" Jeremy said looking down"How is she now?" Rosalina asked"She is better. She will get discharged within this year" Jeremy repliedThere was a moment of absolute silence. None of them said a word as the only sound heard was the clanking of glasses."I am so useless as a brother," Jeremy said"Not more than me," A voice said from behindRosalina's head jolted up in the direction and her eyes widened. Jeremy sat up straight as nervousness took over him."B-Brandon?" Rosalina said stuttering"Why are not eating anything chubs?" He askedRosalina did not reply. She just maintained her silence."I am a much more useless brother. Do you want to know why? Because even if knew what was happening with her I did not take any action.

He asked in a low voice"Cause I want to talk to him. Any problem?" She asked raising an eyebrow"Certainly. You cannot go to meet him" Jaxon said growling"Ohhh and who are you to say that?" She asked in a sarcastic tone"Rosalina listen to me you cannot go to meet him!" Jaxon growled at her againRosalina felt scared at his expression. He had towered over, his nostrils flaring from anger and his eyes red. Rosalina shook her indicating a negative answer.Jaxon ran a finger through his hair abruptly in frustration but what caught his eyes was Rosalina flinching. He came forward at her"I-I just wanted to know W-Why he did it" She answered as she covered herselfJaxon stared at her confused."P-Please don't hurt me" she whisperedJaxon's shoulders fell. His eyes softened at her vulnerable state. H

    ROSALINA POV:"Cause I don't want to lose you again," He saidI cringed at his cliché words. I lightly shivered at it in disgust and he gave me a questioning look. I rolled my eyes and walked forward.I heard footsteps behind but ignored them and kept on marching forward. I stood at the bus stop waiting for its arrival. I felt a presence beside me and looked to find Jaxon staring at me. I sighed and moved away which made him move with me. I let out an annoyed huff."What classes do you have today?" He asked softly"None of your business I see there," I said with an annoyed expression"Well, it is. If it's related to you, it is" He replied"It never was. And it isn't now either. We are no more. So you are just acting like a stalker" I said and walked awayTHIRD-PERSON POV:Her words hurt him like someone stabbing him with a sharp knife.

    THIRD-PERSON POV:Brandon's eyes widened at Rosalina's statement as she stomped out of the room. Jaxon just stared at the figure with a blank look as it faded away into the corridor."This is going to be very difficult" Nick blurted outJosh glared at his obvious statement."I will go talk to her," Lia said suddenly marching forward.Everyone looked at her with a hopeful look but Jaxon. He had a blank expression on his face, staring at the door.Lia went forward and knocked on the door. There was no response so she just decided to enter.She walked into the room searching for the figure. Her eyes landed on the girl by the bedside bawling her eyes out. Lia felt terrible for not being there to support her friend when she needed it the most. For judging her without any proper explanation. Tears weld up in her eyes as she stepped forward.She kneeled behind her and rubbed her back."It's okay. Let it out" She whisperedRosalina burst out crying as soon as she heard the voice.

He did not want to lose her...again.Jaxon has been sitting in the room waiting for Rosalina to come out of her room for quite a long time. All the boys and the girls were there except the one. Even Ivy and Kai were here and as always they were bickering."It's fine Jaxon!

A shiver ran down my spine as I remembered all the horrible incidents that occurred to me here, in my room.I felt two muscular arms wrapped around me and light breathing on my neck giving off a ticklish feeling. I jolted up from my position causing the person holding onto me to flinch awake from his sleep. He sat up rubbing his eyes. His eyes shot open as he saw me"Rosalina? How are you feeling?" He asked worriedly placing a hand on his cheek"What are you doing here?" I asked coldly as I yanked his hand away"You fainted after the incident. I ran after you and you almost got into a crash again...." He said as his voice cracked"T-Then you fainted.
