Secret Crush Shouldn't Shape Us
Zach found himself on the balcony of his room, seeking solace in the conversation he desperately needed from someone, anyone. He heard a knock on the door of his room, his head turning in his head towards the sound. He wondered who it was at the door but he knew it couldn't be Chloe. She was long gone by now, he was sure. “Come on in,” he said and Mrs. Fletcher poked her head into his room. Mrs. Fletcher was a very caring and wise housekeeper, and he loved it when they had conversations. She greeted him with a warm smile as she walked into his room. “Chloe is gone.” Mrs. Fletcher said and he nodded, and then he started to talk about his confusion and emotions regarding Chloe. “I just don’t know what to do with all these. It’s just so confusing and frustrating for me. She’s right in front of me, yet she looks so out of grasp.” He said. Mrs. Fletcher listened attentively, and she realized that all she could do was provide guidance and reassurance. “You know this isn’t about y

Zach sat down in his car outside Chloe’s house, thinking about how to say what he wanted to say. It wasn’t going to be easy, not after the way he had treated her when she came over to his house. He was sure she had swallowed her pride to come to him but what had he done? He had just shoved her away with the words of his mouth and action of his words. He should have been more open about the way he felt a long time ago, and not now when all she wanted to do was kill him at sight, and trustfully, he deserved that. Sighing, he rubbed his face with his hand, trying not to do push his hair back because it will make it all messy. Mustering the courage to get out of the car after about half an hour he had been parked out front, he opened the car and walked to the door of the house. Once, then twice, he knocked on the door and took a step back to wait for the door to be open, hoping she was the one that would open the door. He felt that, if she was to reject him on the spot, then his humi

The next day at school, Zach didn't see Chloe, and it was as if it was her turn to avoid her. He tried to find her at every break, but couldn't and even Hailey wasn't seen as well, which means that they were avoiding him purposefully. Well, he deserved that, he knew that at least, but he also deserved to be given a chance to explain himself to her and apologize. He walked to his next class, the last one of the day with the thought of not seeing Chloe, only to bump into someone's back as the stopped abruptly at the door of the class. Frowning, he grabbed their shoulder to stop them from falling forward, seeing as the collision had been strong. The moment he grabbed her though, he knew who it was he had collided with. Chloe!Her touch told him so, her smell told him so, the way her skin felt under his touch told him so, the way an electrifying zap ran through him told him so. He looked at her now, grabbing her even harder and pulling her to him. In his arms, Chloe struggled to pus

Kissing her was the last thing she expected Zach to do when he had warned her to stop shouting, and it was why she had been so surprised she couldn’t resist him. As soon as his lips started to move against his, she grabbed his T-shirt and started to kiss him back. Oh goodness! She was kissing Zach Elliot-Day in a broom closet in school after being sent to detention. Well, maybe all the other details were not important, because she had just added them because she was surprised, but what she meant was conveyed. Zach's tongue pushed against the seams of her mouth, tracing her lips and licking them like he would a sweet thing. She moaned into his mouth as he sucked in her bottom lip into his mouth, sucking it for a moment before releasing it to focus on the upper one. Damn, this bit sure knew how to kiss so good, and she could do this for such a very long time just not to miss it, but it ended too soon though, because about a couple of minutes later, or maybe more than, she wasn't sur

“What are you doing, really?” Chloe asked as she crossed her arms over her chest, tilting her head once again to the side, as she asked him the question. “Well, I don't understand your question, Chloe!” he said, lifting his ridiculously wide shoulders in a shrug. “I just need to get water and make some coffee, that's all.” He said. Of course that was what he wanted to do, and Chloe was just overreacting, she said to herself. “Fine then! I'm going to the bathroom first, do you want to follow me there too?" she asked, her arms still folded across her chest, pushing up her breasts up a little. Zach's eyes went down there for a little while and then he look back up at her, a mischievous smile on his face. “Huh, that would depend on whether or not you're inviting me, little bird!” he said with a wink. “Of course not, I'm certainly not inviting you to follow me.” She said, rolling her eyes but also feeling embarrassed. Her cheeks started to turn red, burning under his gaze and she quick

When Zach decided to come to the movie night today, it wasn't to watch movie but to see Chloe again. She had tried the very best to avoid him in school after their kiss and he didn't want to go after her with so many people always around her when he saw her, just to avoid a scene. He knee quite well always in a crowd was on purpose. Yesterday, after he was asked by Liam what was going on with him, he had convinced him to see her again, to Zach's surprise. They had never spoken to each other on that level before so it amazed him that the outcome wasn't his laughter outburst, but of understanding and reason. Damn, didn't he miss her. Like he had told Chloe herself that day at the broom closet, it was a mistake to have kissed her like that, because now, she was all he could think about and that sucked. All he had to do was sit alone and he would think about how she felt against him in the broom closet that day. All he had to do was lay in bed with his eyes opened or closed and he woul

Trying to prove anything to someone was hard enough, much less, proving to Chloe that he was serious about his feelings.Although, he felt like she should know it was a long time coming, or maybe her mom never told her that when a boy bullies her, it was because he liked her. He laughed at the thought, and Liam looked at him with a small frown, probably wondering what was so funny to him without them even talking. Well, he was definitely going to tell him if he asked. It wasn't something he could keep to himself, no, not with the way he felt at the moment. Or maybe it was the way he had been feeling since Friday when Chloe had said to him “If you truly want me, then show me you like me, and ask me out properly in front of someone, anyone” and she had walked away, knowing shaking her hips as she went, smiling. Of course, he understood why she had asked that of him, and wanted him to ask her out in front of someone. It was because she wanted to make sure this wasn't some sort of elab

“No father, you're getting it all wrong. She's not my anything, and she shouldn't have been your anything either.” He said to him without even turning to look at him. He wasn't even worth that effort from him. This was why he hated an encounter with him, because they were always getting in fights, and it was always because of this woman standing here with tears in her eyes, whether she was present it not. “I will not have my own son talk to me like that, not in my fucking house. I don't look after you to become this…” Zach scoffed. This was the biggest nonsense he had ever heard of in his entire life. “I don't understand what you mean, dear father of mine. Look after me? How? When was that? You!” he said, finally turning to look at him and pointing to him. “I would like for you to explain to me how you did look after me. Please, try to explain it so that I can understand.” He said. “I put you in the best school in this town, and pay for your school fees, I put a roof over your hea

Secret Crush A Good Ending
The air felt so heavy around Zach as he approached Chloe's house, his breath forming clouds in the chilly evening. “Oh shit, I’m nervous.” He whispered. It was as if he was there to ask for Chloe’s hand in marriage rather than just having a causal dinner with her family.He couldn't help but feel a flutter of nervous excitement in his chest at the thought of marrying her though, because he would like that very much.Although, Zach had eaten with Chloe before, but tonight was different; it wasn't just another dinner. It was a gathering, an invitation from Chloe's family so that they could meet him official and probably talk about his relationship with Chloe. As he reached the front door, it swung open right before he could knock on the door, revealing Hailey, Chloe's best friend and his own friend as well, and he wondered how she knew he was at the door. Well, she had probably heard the sound of his car. That was the most likely explanation for how she knew to open the door before he
Secret Crush Talking It Through
All Zach wanted was to never have to talk with his father again, but he wondered what this was about now. He stood up and followed him, but his mind was back there on the bed with Chloe. "What's this about, father?" he asked, but his father said nothing. Sighing, he shook his head and followed him in silently, not saying anything after that. When they got to his office, Zach silently closed the door before turning back to face his father, watching as he walked to the window to stand over it. Be would have preferred to open the door of the room and just let them talk so that it would be easier fir him to escape, but he also didn't want it to seem like he had anything to run for. His father took his sweet time before he spoke though, clearing his throat even, so that his voice would come out in his desired way. "I'm going on a business trip," his father started. "And what the heck does that have to do with me?" Zach wanted to ask, but instead, he stood there quietly without
Secret Crush Talking about the past Too
They were still on his bed, but they had stopped kissing, and Chloe was now sitting in front of Zach instead of his lap, their head pushed together as they spoke in a hushed tone even though the room was empty. “Wait a minute, Zach. I have a question for you.” Chloe said and she pulled back a little, and Zach's hands around her loosen. He looked at her with his eyes squinted, wanting to know what was going on. “What is the question about though?” e asked. “Can you tell me what happened with your mom? I know she died, and because of that, you hate your father and his wife so badly. If it's not too much, can you tell me what happened there?” she asked. Zach stared at Chloe for a full minute, contemplating on what to say and what not to say. He knew Chloe meant no harm and she was just trying to get to know him even better than she did before. He decided it was best to tell her about it so that she would understand him even more. She would see that he hadn't just woke up one day and
Secret Crush Talking about the Past
A week later, Zach called Chloe and invited her over to his house and Chloe wondered why he was asking her over. She had been cooking for her siblings when she received his call that afternoon, so she had to finish up before leaving. As she walked to the bus stop to get on the bus, her phone rang again, and she picked it up to see that it was her mother. After the day her father had caught her over at the Elliot's house, he had realized that they needed to spend more time as a family, and he had had that conversation with her one night after she managed to come home from work. It turned out that the only reason she kept taking shifts over and over was because of a promotion that she was eyeing, but she could have just explained that. After that, her mother had spoken to her and told her she just needed two days, because the period for working for the promotion was over then, and ever since, she had been cutting back on work and showing up at home most nights. It wasn't entirely the
Secret Crush Gisting Hailey
“Hey, you!“ that was the first thing Hailey said to her when she opened the door of her house that afternoon, a mischievous smile on her face. Chloe shook her head at her as she followed her into the house and then up the stairs to her room. “You’re definitely so up for hearing what I have for you, aren't you?” “What? Did you finally grow some balls to kiss that boy?” she asked and she turned to look at her over her shoulder, right before she opened up the door of her room. Rolling her eyes, Chloe chuckled. “No, but I have more juicer news. You won't believe what happened at all.” She said. Hailey plop down on her bed and then she turned to face her, all fully ready to hear the gist she had for her. “Out with it, now.” She said, hitting her on the arm playfully. “Ow, Hailey. What do you think you're doing? You’re not going to let me get to it if you continue doing that.” She said, then just to tease her, she asked. “Wait, are we alone at home or something?” she was just trying to
Secret Crush Just Maybe
The argument with her father wasn't as she had expected, but it was long, and by the time he was able to convince him that Zach wasn't her boyfriend, she went out of the house to go to Hailey, also surprised that he let her, even after knowing she had lied about sleeping over there before. She had told him she was going to have a sleepover at Hailey's and that he could follow her there if he didn't believe her, or call his informant, Mr. Elliot-Day if he didn't believe her, and surprisingly, he had just rolled his eyes at her and nodded his eyes. She still wonder what Mr. Elliot-Day had told her father, but it was all good, because as long as she wasn't grounded or anything, then it was probably not something she should be worried about. One thing she was grateful for was the fact that her mother wasn't there at the time. It was still two o'clock in the afternoon, and she shouldn't be going to a sleepover this early, but it was Hailey’s house, so she needed to do just that, or that
Secret Crush Trouble for Chloe
Chloe used her hands to cover up her face, embarrassed at the things Zach said she did, the ones she couldn't still remember properly. She knew she hadn't taken in the intake of the alcohol properly, so they were a fat chance he wasn't lying or pulling her legs. “You were so bad last night, trying to send me to an early grave. I wonder why you were so bent on seducing me last night, though, but I guess it was the alcohol.” He said. He had started to drive and was somehow stuck in a little bit of traffic, but still, he wasn't looking at her at all. He was so focused on the road ahead of him one would think he had his eyes glued there. He definitely was avoiding her gaze. She turned up the corner of her mouth in a surprised smile, squinting her eyes as she looked at him. Was it possible that she had succeeded in turning him on or something? She wondered for a second, then she leaned over the console that was between them and asked him, whispering into his ear. “Wait, did I succeed in
Secret Crush Close Proximity
Can you please take me home, Zach?” she asked him after they had talked about their families, looking at him with a small smile on her face. Zach nodded his head in agreement. “Of course, little bird. Just give me a second to get something better on.” He said as he gave her a small smile. He pushed Chloe off him as gently as possible, and then he walked to his closet, winking at Chloe over his shoulder as he realized she was watching him go. Luckily, she didn't flush when he looked at him until he turned back and walked into the closet. She reddened when he was gone, blowing out a breath. Zach was just really handsome and being in close proximity with him like this was really making butterflies fluttering in her belly. About a few minutes later, he walked out and told her it was time to leave. As she stood up to follow him, she caught her leg and twisted her ankle, going down in a fall. Before she could get to the ground, Zach caught her, but she was still flailing around, and t
Secret Crush Busted
When he woke up and saw a call from Mr. Elliot-Day to have breakfast in his house with his family this morning, he had been so happy, because it was a sign that the man might go ahead with the deal, so without thinking about anything else, he had made breakfast for made breakfast for his sons as his daughter had spent the night over at her friend's place, and had his bath, before heading over to this place. The last thing he now expected was for his daughter to be here, walking into their dining room with confidence as if she belonged there. When he had arrived at this house, the one he happened to pass by two times every day to and from work without ever entering, he had been in awe of how beautiful the place was. And he was glad he had been invited. One could tell that the owners of the house were wealthy because everything in the house spoke of it even. He had expected the expanse of this all because he could see the outside shone and stood out. As he got to the house, a woman,
