My eyes flew to the door to see my mum standing there with a bright smile as she walked over to were I stood with a tray containing covered dishes.
"Hey mum" I smiled back nervously.
"Where are you going to,you should be resting" She scolded as she walked over to my bedside table. She set the tray gently on the table before turning back to face me.
"I'm fine mum, I only fainted, I didn't have an accident" I am sick and tired of being treated like a patient who had a terrible accident.
"The doctor said you need..." I didn't let her finish her sentence. I already knew what she'll say.
"I've rested enough already" I frowned.
"Where are you going to" She scanned me from head to toe. I was thankful she didn't push the topic about me resting further.
"To see Aiden" I told her as I grabbed my hand bag.
"What for? You know Al
Liv's POV"Hey" Alex's voice brought me away from my clouded thoughts."Hi" I smiled at him."You feeling better?" He said as he wrapped his arms around my waist. I noticed how his hands were shaking. His knuckles were covered in bandage. He really did a number on Aiden."Yeah" I said as I turned my head back to face the window."I'm sorry" His hot breath fanned my face."What for?" I rolled my eyes at him."For loosing my cool last night, it's my fault that you fainted and I'm sorry" He snuggled closer to me, closing whatever space was left between us."Okay..""You're not saying anything" He breathed unto my bare exposed back."What do you want me to say?" I smiled, softening my features as I turned back to face him."I was half expecting you to tell at
Liv's POVBefore I could rethink my actions,my hand seemed to move faster than my thoughts as I pressed the doorbell.I began to contemplate going back until the door pulls open, discarding any plans I had of turning back."Hey sweetie" The old woman I have gotten so used to smiles at she stared at me."Hi Nana" I smiled as I hug her."Where have you been dear, I haven't seen you around lately" She frowned as she led me into the house I once found comfort in."I'm sorry Nana, I've been...busy" I said calmly as we both sat down on the couch."It's okay" She sighed. She looked tired and stressed."Have have you been Nana?" I asked as I fixed my eyes on her, taking in her features."I've been fine,just tired from all the planting and cultivating" She beamed."Oh, I'm sorry about
Liv's POV"Where were you" Alex said as soon as I came into the room."I... I went to see Aiden" I bend my head, avoiding his gaze as I expect him to flare up but he doesn't."Oh" He said calmly.Oh? Alex said oh?No tantrums or drama?"Oh?" I'm forced to ask."What?" He arches his brows at me."You said oh,you didn't start a fight" I stare at him cautiously."Come here silly" He pulls me to his chest."You've changed" I teased as I play with the collar of his t-shirt."Nope, enjoy it while it lasts" He smirked playfully."You know what else I'd enjoy right now?" I smirk mischievously as I bite my bottom lip."What?" He has a smug smile on his face."This" I place my lips against his in a teasi

"Hey sweetheart, hurry up or else you'll be late for school"I heard my mum yelling."Coming mum!"I yelled back in response as i wore my perfume, grabbing my bag and then i ran downstairs to meet her."Hey sweetie,what took you so long?"She asked as i kissed her cheek."I took long at the shower"I said."It's alright honey,Um,a car dropped by with your car key,he said he's from the car wash"She said, handing me by car key."Oh yeah,he was supposed to bring my car today"I said."Ok dear,i made sandwiches for breakfast"She said."Oops sorry mum, I can't wait,i need to be in school early today"I said."Why honey?Do you have a project or homework to submit?"She asked."No but i have a movie to watch"I said."Movie?In school?What movie?"She asked."Don't w
Alexander fucking Williams poured slime on me!I glared at him with as much venom possible and then smirk."W....what"He stammered as i drew closer to him and then kissed him.When i mean kiss,i mean,i literally kissed him, rubbing all the slime on both of us.Everyone gasped in shock and i smiled,i placed my lip on his ear and whispered."Next time you think of doing something as stupid as this,make sure you're prepared cause I'm coming for you"I said and marched down the stage to where my friends were already standing.All eyes were on me,i turned and took one last glance at Alex who was still standing there with shock written all over his face."Come on girls, let's go"I said and they followed me out of the club bombarding with with different kind of stupid questions i just wasn't in the mood to answer."Babe,you k
I woke up at exactly 7am with a pounding headache. I got up from my bed and went to the bathroom to brush my teeth, after which i went downstairs to meet my mum at the kitchen where she was busy preparing breakfast.She smiled upon seeing me and i smiled weakly, hugging her."Good morning mum" I greeted."Morning sweetie,how was your night?"She asked as she continued chopping onions."It was okay, I just have a slight headache" I said."Oh sorry honey, go to my cupboard you'll see an Aspirin, take it, the headache will stop"She said."Ok mum, thanks"I said and left for her room.I knocked on the door upon arrival and my Dad's voice answered behind the door.I pulled the door open and saw him seated on his bed with a magazine in hand."Good morning Dad"I greeted."Morning sweet
I woke up early by 7am,i quickly ran to the bathroom to shower, after which i put on my clothes in preparation for school. I grabbed my backpack and ran downstairs to see a shirtless Alex with his perfect abs in display,he was making coffee in the kitchen. "Hey what are you doing in my kitchen and why are you naked?"I yelled. "Good morning to you too Henderson" He said, ignoring my approach. "Hey i was asking you a question"I yelled. "Why do you always have to bark Olivia,you can see I'm busy here and if i can remember clearly your parents said i should feel at home so that means i have equal rights here as you,and i can put on whatever i want,i can stay shirtless for the whole day,how is that a problem to you"He said, ignoring me as he continued making his coffee. "Hey this is my house and i get to decide who does what and how you behave"I said.

"Hey" He said as soon as he was close enough to me. I watched him carefully as he sat down beside me on the bed, staring back at me. His cold features immediately softened as we both stared at each other with so much emotion.Anger,love,heartache."Where did you go to?"I raised my eyebrow at him."I needed air to breath, I couldn't stand that dude being close to you" I could see the anger in his eyes as he spoke."Okay" I said tiredly."How are you feeling?" He asked as he softened his expression."Better" I really don't know why they were making a big deal out of nothing. I fainted, I didn't have an accident or an heart attack."You know we still have a lot to discuss,but I'll let it be for now till you fully recover" He said calmly."You can as well say whatever it is that you wanna discuss now, I'm not sick, I only
"Is she awake?" I heard voices from my background."I think she is, don't know for sure" A familiar voice said."Doctor how's she doing please?" Another desperate voice asked."Will you shut your damn mouth and let him do his job" The voice I recognized to be Alex's,spoke."Hey man, I'm sueing you don't forget it" I recognized this to be Aiden's voice."Fuck off already, haven't you had enough?what are you even still doing here" Alex yelled at Aiden I suppose."One more word from both of you and I'm kicking you out of my house" I recognized my Dad's voice."She's conscious" An unfamiliar voice said as I pulled open my eyes slowly."W.. what happened?"Are my first words as soon as my eyes fly open to see a room filled with my parents,Hailey,Elsa,quite a shock. Alex,Aiden and someone in uniform who seems to be a doctor.
I was pulled after from him before I could even register what was happening. I stood there frozen in my spot with a blank head. It took me a while to recover from what just happened and that's when it registered on me.Once I was back to my normal state, I stared over at Aiden who was no longer standing on his two feet but was lying helplessly on the floor with Alex on top of him, throwing several punches non stop at him. I couldn't move, I couldn't say anything. I couldn't bring myself to say anything. I was still in shock.Aiden was making lame attempts at punching Alex whereas Alex was doing that which he promised to do. He was hitting Aiden's head profusely on the floor. He punched his face and stomach continuously without mercy. If he wasn't stopped immediately, he'll actually keep to his promise of murdering Aiden.It was a bitch ass thing for Aiden to do by kissing someone's girlfriend right in front of him. But I
"Aiden I...." I pulled away from Alex immediately as I stood there like someone who was just caught cheating. I stared at the boy standing few meters away from me and I could see the look he had on his face. It wasn't a pleasant one."Who's he?" Aiden asked as he approach us, taking each step carefully."He's...." Alex cut me off before I could even form a presentable sentence."I'm her boyfriend so I should be the one asking you that" Alex said with a scowl on his face as he stood in front of me, blocking any chances of Aiden's further approach towards me."You have a boyfriend?" Aiden ignored the warning sign Alex was giving him as he moved further to my direction."Aiden it's not what you think,we....""Not what he thinks? Who cares bout what the fuck he thinks,Man who the hell is this dude!" Alex was stepping on Aiden's nerves and I could see it."Hey you watch your asshole mouth I'm talking to her not you" The look on Aiden
"What did my mum do?" For some unknown reason, I felt my anger rise immediately."It was back then in California, before your birthday, she paid me a visit" *****Flash back*****Alex's POV"Hello Alex" She said with her charming smile still on her face. Liv really looks like her mom. So elegant and beautiful."Hi Ma'am... Um... My mum isn't home and my dad is also out" I informed her."Oh that's okay Alex, I'm not here to see your mum, I'm here to see you" She smiled."Me?" I was surprised."Yes, you... Can I come in?" She smiled brightly at me. Something about her sudden visit makes me uneasy."Yeah" I stepped back for her to come in. I closed the door shut before leading her to the living area where Blake was seated.
