Putting on my grey baggy jeans and an oversized black hoodie, I grabbed my old sneakers and tied the lace neatly.
I sneaked to my sister's room when I realized she came out.
I stole some little quantity of concealer, I needed to use to hide the hickey on my neck.
I don't own any make-up items and I don't need it either.
"What are you doing in my room?" My sister's voice terrified me as I thought immediately about what to say to cover up.
"I need a lip gloss," I said quickly as I grabbed her lip gloss immediately from her table and waved it in her front as I smiled.
She arched her brow at me questioningly as she crossed her arms.
"Is there something, I'm missing out on?" She asked amused with a smirk.
"There's no something, I just felt like using a lip gloss," I rolled my eyes applying the pink lip gloss on my lips as
I got to my locker and the happiness on my face drained as I stared at the Shrew in front of me with her crews.Jenny...They smirked as they rested on the side of my locker and eyed me but that of Jenny was much more different, it was full of raw hatred and jealousy.It was visible on her face.Trying to act like they were invincible, I moved closer to my locker and gasp at the mean things, they wrote on it.Bitch...Whore...Slut...Wench...Loser...I stared with agitation at Jenny who was taking her time skinning me alive with her eyes."Are you done reading whore?" She yelled in that annoying high-pitched voice of hers.Luckily, everyone had gone to their class and those on their way minded their damn business."Such a slut!" Bella scoffed as she popped the gum in
I cleaned my face and wore my glasses as I opened my locker only for a paper to fall at my feet.I picked it up curiously and it read, 'From Charles,' making my heart constrict painfully.I opened it with shaky hands as a tear slipped down my face.Dear Camilla,The first day I set my eyes on you in the classroom, I knew behind those pair of eyeglasses lies a very beautiful and special girl. I'm so heartbroken writing this letter to you and I want to say sorry. It's such grief, I had to leave without getting to say goodbye and see that lovely and cute face of yours one more time.I didn't wish to leave but my parents got angry especially my mum when the school authority reported I got into a fight.My mum made sure of it, that I was transferred to a farther school, I tried to convince her and with the support of my dad who doesn't want his reputation to be spoilt by me saw it to be a go
Camilla POV.It was Biology class and I sat close to the window as I dozed off as Mrs. Justin explained the cell and its structure.Everyone was yawning while some of my classmates began to sleep.I tried to keep my eyes open but it was always going back to its sleeping state and that only happens in Mrs. Justin's class.Let me put it this way, her class is so fucking boring. They should have done an oral interview for her instead.The more she talked, the more I dozed, it's just as if she was singing us a lullaby.The worst thing about her is that she's so wicked."Hey, you! Stand up!!" Mrs. Justin shouted pointing at Evangelina who was already sleeping.Her seatmate tapped her and whispered into her ear as she sprang up from her seat."So, you're sleeping in my class while I was taking my time a
I got home feeling more relieved than ever, Lucas decided to give me a break and so did Jenny who just cast looks of hatred to me from where she was sitting with Lucas.Them not picking up with me in the school canteen was a world break in record.I just pray they do that always and won't look my side ever again but Lucas was staring at me all along.Beatrice dropped me and zoomed off, her mum called her to do something important for her.I opened the door and got in as I dropped my bag pack on the seat."Mum, I'm home!" I called out."Mum!" I called again but didn't get any response.I thought she said she isn't going to work today, where could she be?I made my way to the kitchen to grab a bottle of water when I saw a small folded paper on the fridge.I took it and opened it.
Finally, it's Friday, the bell rang as every student hurried to their classrooms.I opened the door with a loud thud, luckily no one was present in class, I straightened up and took my seat beside the window side at the far end of the class.I brought out my books and pen and started scribbling some irrelevant stuff at the back of my book.A ball of paper landed on my face, shifting my eyeglasses aside, I adjusted my glasses looking up slowly at the idiot who did that and found out it was Jenny.She was with her two puppies, Bella and Susan who stood at her back."Hey Nerdy!" She greeted, but I knew there was something fetish behind that smile.I ignored her and continued with what I was doing.We're having maths today, meaning it would be a general class for everyone.My book was snatched from me and I snapped my hea
"Fuck! What I'm going to wear?" I cursed as I searched my wardrobe looking for what to wear.Beatrice had warned me to wear something thrilling and I don't have any at all.I placed my palms on my head feeling frustrated.I turned in the direction of the mirror staring at my pale reflection.I jerked at the cacophony sound of the horn as I yelped in terror."OMG! She's here," I muttered as I jumped on my heap of clothes on the floor.I'm surely gonna murder Beatrice for the stress she's putting me into, well if she wouldn't murder me first."Camilla! Get your fat ass out of there!" I heard her calling as her clicking sounds of shoes seems to draw closer to my door."I'm coming!" I replied loudly, as I grabbed a long gown on the floor."This should do," I mumbled as the door flew open. 
We got to the Cinema as we gave the securities our tickets.There were lots of people who were around to also watch the movie."C'mon Camilla!" Beatrice said with eagerness as she grabbed my wrist and pulled me into the theater.We bought popcorns and made our way into the building.We giggled as we ran to the front, to have our seats.We settled down on the chair and waited patiently for the movie to start.Everyone started occupying the seat.The movie started around 8:30 p.m as the room became silent as everyone watched with awe.Beatrice and I munched on our popcorn as we watched with keen interest.The movie was about, a discovery that will change the future of medicine.Dr. Lily Houghton enlists the aid of wisecracking skipper Frank Wolff to take her down the Amazon in his dilapidated
"Get the fuck away from her!!!" Someone roared, making the guy leave me alone. I opened my eyes immediately and stared at my only savior. But, I got shocked the more when I realized who this savior of mine was. Lucas... This must be a dream, I'm yet to get awake from. I was shivering with fear as I looked at the gun still pointed at my head. "Get the fuck away from here or I shoot you," The guy warned now pointing the gun at Lucas who didn't move an inch. Fear gripped me as thoughts of this monster shooting Lucas became a dread to me. Yeah, he was my bully and I've wished bad things do happen to him but my heart only clenched, praying not to happen at this moment. He was here to save me. I could feel the anger radiating from his body as he took his steps fo

"She left him shattered turning him to the devil he is now, but he found her and will claim what is truly his."***"Stay away from me Ben," Beatrice cracked in a shaky voice as she took her steps back.She never knew the Ben she was once loved had turned into a monster and nothing but a devil."Not again Beatrice, I let go of you the first time which is the dumbest mistake I ever made in my life, but now that I've laid my eyes on you again, you'll never slip out of my hold," He said the deep icy voice that sent shivers all through Beatrice's body.He grabbed her arm roughly and pulled her to himself and without hesitation he smashed his lips on her._______________________________________GET READY!!!❤️GET READY!!!
FIVE AND HALF YEARS LATER,You know when they say opposite sides attract... That's usually true at times.I finished university with Lucas who is now my Lawful husband a year ago. Lucas became the CEO of his father's company while I worked as a scientist in one of the research institutions in America.Everything had been great between us, well, not exactly great because we tend to fight, argue, cry and the rest...No relationship is perfect but still, we had our chances to make things right and togetherGuess what...? I have a 10 months old baby boy whose name is Gavin.Gavin has a striking appearance and resemblance just like his Dad, those green eyes especially which made him look so cute always made me wonder if it's a thing in Liam's family to pass down green eyes to their descendants.Lucas made me leave my job because he wanted me to give our son a
CAMILLA'S POV.***7 months later,Summer break was over and everyone finished high school two months ago.Lucas, I, and Ben were admitted into the university Berkeley in California.Beatrice had traveled to Germany to study in one of the universities there can't remember the name though while Leticia went to London to study at Oxford University.I can't believe this is a dream come true, dreams of getting into one of the prestigious universities in America just too bad my parents weren't around to witness their daughter go to university.I never heard anything from Lillian and I always prayed she was safe wherever she was.Today was our first day of resumption as Lucas refused to let go of me as I sat on him on the bed."Lucas! Let go, we'll be late to school," I grumbled against him.
LUCAS'S POV.I watched Camilla tiptoe on the rink and prepared the precise skating position I told her to keep. We both went out ice skating in one of the popular Ice rinks in America and today was boxing day.My mum had left saying she would return and make things right, I couldn't bring myself to just forgive her yet because of all what I went through as a little boy and the worst thing was that She and Dad had been together for almost a year and he kept it from me all this while.Camilla's feet were at hip distance and her arms were in front of her, then she squatted slightly, just enough to find her balance.Little kids waved at her as they skated around her giggling at her, I still find it amusing when she told she didn't know how to skate.She bent her knees and looked down, probably afraid she wouldn't fall. Her shoulders were forward and she allowed herself to hold
"Merry Christmas!" Beatrice chirped as she walked into the dining room with some pack of gifts in her hands, followed by Leticia."You're here already!" I gasped looking up from where I was busy with some decorations on the Christmas tree as I squatted... Lucas's father decided on having a little Christmas party among his family and friends... So, I invited Beatrice and Leticia to tag along."Yeah!" Beatrice smirked as she looked around the dining... I think she must be impressed with red, green, and white decorations."You two look so beautiful," I complimented acknowledging their straight glittering gown with spaghetti arms and slit from the thigh, Beatrice's gown was a shade blackish-red while Leticia's was blackish blue."Thank you!" The both of them chirped.They looked so elegant.I haven't put on my cloth since I was so busy with decorations because we
Days and weeks rolled by and I was happy that we finally finished this term exam. Christmas was fast approaching and today being so cold, I and Lucas walked into the city with our hands clasped together.Putting on a thick coat with scarfs wrapped around our necks we walked among the crowds.New York is such a lively place to be as we strolled along the High line and down to soho where we had a local meal at Miss Lilly's.We talked and laughed walking hand in hand after leaving Miss Lilly's restaurant.We kept on walking gazing at the malls and shops already decorated in preparation for Christmas.Kids ran in the street happily with balloons in their hands or a stick of sweet."Is your legs weary?" Lucas asked as we strutted the street."Nope!" I smiled wrapping my booth hands around his left arm, clinging to him as he brought his right t
I was in the library trying to look for a new amplified biology textbook... Lucas was sitting at the corner of the library waiting for me.We just had finished two papers not so long and I wanted to get the textbook, so he and I could study together.I was trailing my fingers on the books arranged neatly on the shelves.'Where's this textbook?' I thought annoyingly remembering quite well, I saw it at this particular spot I was searching for."Show yourself!" I muttered squatting to check the books arranged below the shelf."Hahaha! Gotcha!" I smiled at last feeling relieved I'd seen the book I was looking for sinceI heard steps behind and I stood up turning around to see who it was.The textbook in my hands fell as I began shaking visibly... Taking my steps back."Damien!" I muttered, he still had bandages wrapped ar
"Hmmm!" I mumbled incoherently as I turned to the side of the bed and stretched my hand.My hand hit something hard as I patted it lightly before shooting my eyes open to see Lucas staring at me with a bright smile on his face while my hand was on his chest."Good morning sunshine," He greeted Leaning closer to me as he kissed my lips dearly."Good morning" I smiled snuggling closer to him as I pressed my head on his chest.He patted my hair as we both entangled our hands together with the duvet covering our naked bodies.Memories of yesterday came flashing into my head and I couldn't help but grin crazily.That is something I would never forget in my life... I loved every aspect of how he handled my body like I was some sort of Goddess.This wasn't any sex but lovemaking."How do you feel about yesterday?" He asked s
