(ATLAS’S POV)

Alana was acting icy cold when we got in to the house. She had been acting that way all the way through the drive and till now.

I couldn’t help but wonder if she was mad at me for calling her a nerd last night or because of what happened between that male dude and I.

“So are you going to say what’s wrong?” I asked watching her take a seat on the Chaise Lounge.

I was standing with my arms straightened out beside me and my eyes solely fixed on her.

“Nothing is wrong.” She said but she still wasn’t looking at me.

“Then why won’t you look at me?” I asked her.

She seemed to take a deep breath and then she turned to look at me.

Her blue eyes struck me as they always do and I found comfort in starring at that pretty face.

“There is nothing wrong.” She said holding my eyes.

I had to admit that Alana was so much more than I had ever expected. By a lot more, I mainly mean stubborn.

I walked towards her and her eyes narrowed while she turned her face away also.

I crouched so I c

His tone was authoritative and strong enough to stir up more emotions than I ever imagined.We were so close to each other but I wanted to be even closer to him. So I raised my hands up and let my palms rest on his chest. He watched me intensely as if waiting for what I would do. I closed my eyes thinking of all my imaginations and night dreams, when I opened them again, I raised my self higher standing on my tip toes as I let my lips brush gently over his.I bit his lower lip and he moaned giving me access to slip my tongue in to his mouth. Kissing him overwhelmed me with such intense want.My hands moved over his body gently but firmly as I enjoyed the hardness of his skin. I kissed him so deeply with all my might and desire. Then I reached for his shirt and slipped my hands under raising it higher as I stepped back for a break to take his shirt over his head.I stared at the marvelous

  • Submitting To The Bad Boy   Heartbreak In The Hallway!

    One of the first things that I had ever noticed about Atlas Shaughnessy was how almost cold, expressionless and distant he seemed to be. But when he left me all alone in that huge mansion, i felt his icy attitude for the very first time. It sucked everything from me and drained my energy and confidence. Exactly ten minutes after he had left, the sound of the doorbell jarred me out of my heartbroken and sober state.I had worn my clothes but still remained seated in the bedroom as if waiting somehow for him to reappear. For one second, I had even hoped he was the one at the door, but it was the driver, just as he had told me, an expressionless young man with the figure and aura of a bodyguard. I was driven and dropped off with an emptiness and the broken memories of his fingers and lips all over me.I was plunged in to an unfamiliar place of pain and sadness, one that made sleep almost impossible that night.My mind was swirling in a turmoil of sorrow and the thoughts of what could h

    (LANA’S POV)My friends stared wide eyed at me like they had just experienced an encounter with a ghost. I stood shocked as well, unable to make words out.They were the last people that I expected to see now and I thought to myself that they must have been worried and come after me.I wondered how long they had been here, what they had seen and if they had heard anything at all. But with such shocked looks on their faces, I knew for a fact that they had a good idea of my secret.I knew it without a doubt.————————————————————————————“Oh my goodness!” Daisy exclaimed for what seemed to be like the hundredth time.“Can you stop saying that?” Paige said tiredly.Her voice sounded way more balanced than Paige but looking at her, one could see that her expression was not so far fetched. She looked like she had been shaken from the story I had just told them.We were all huddled up on my bed, in my room and admist tears, I had relaid most of all that had happened between Atlas and I.Yes

    My friends didn’t lie when they said they would help me get over Atlas. We spent the next few days having fun and being in school together. We had lunch at the bleachers instead of the cafeteria, they made sure that I was almost always occupied with books, we went out a lot and I have to say that it helped me to feel better.I have been watching Atlas as well as haboring feelings for him for years now and to withdraw was not something that was easy. But I was determined and so I put in extra effort.I made a submission to the management of academics requesting for a change in my schedules and time tables. Since I am a perfect score student who has never been in trouble, it was not hard to get what I wanted which was to avoid seeing Atlas in my classes.At night I thought about him before going to bed, sometimes I cried but I stayed strong. It went on that way for some time.Then, Friday came and I was in bed exchanging texts with my friends in our shared group chat.The next day was

    (LANA’S POV)There was a moment of pure silence passing through the atmosphere as the boys simply stared at me. The butler narrowed his eyes at me and at them, he could very easily sense that there was some sort of strange thing going around.Then as if snapping out of his thoughts at once, Atlas stood up and walked towards me. Each step he took made my heart beat faster as I struggled to maintain holding his gaze. He was dressed only in shorts and his well framed physique was very obvious in the daylight.He got to me keeping his eyes deeply on mine.“That will be all, Jameson.” He said ajd just as I was starting to wonder who Jameson was, the butler gave a ‘yes sir’ before turning around to take his leave.My eyes could not help but wander to Atlas’s broad chest which seemed to glisten under the sunlight with obvious stains of water on him. I swallowed a lump in my throat as flashes from our last union took place in my head.“I guess you came all the way here to feed your eyes.” He

  • Submitting To The Bad Boy   You Have Been Shitty!

    “Now, tell me, Alana. What is it that you really want?” He asked. The way he looked at me intimidated me and I disliked it so much. I wanted to be firm. I wanted to be confident. “I told you. I am here because I want my book!” I said maintaining my stance. Atlas chuckled. A soft and dry sound that mocked me. “That’s not what you are here for.” He said. He sounded so confident and blunt. I hated that he was right and it annoyed me so much that he was speaking so calmly to me after the way he treated me. After how he left me in that house and snubbed me right afterwards. Fury gnawed within me and I folded my arms across my chest balancing my pose on one hip. “You know what? Maybe i’m not just here for my book! Maybe I am also here to give you a piece of my mind.” I Said. “Well, -“ Atlas started to say but I raised my hand to stop him. “Don’t say anything. You didn’t think you had anything to say to me, anyway. I said and then I scoffed at him right after, You’re so me

    (LANA’S POV)“Oh my Goodness! Did you really?” Daisy said in shock.I shifted uncomfortably avoiding their eyes as my fingers played on the handle of my box.“I’m sorry. I know we agreed on no more Atlas. I just wanted to express myself!” I said with a resigned sigh.“Oh no. It is not that.” Daisy said stepping forward. “I'm just shocked that you told him all that to his face.”I finally found the courage to look up at my friend seeing that she was not judging me for going to see Atlas even after I had promised not to.“Yea, same here. I am proud that you let him have it and I am very surprised too.” Paige said with a raised eyebrow.Paige is not one to be easily surprised.“So does this really mean- Hey! Watch it!” Daisy said angrily when a bunch of boys ran past us roughly hurling their boxes as they did.My friends and I were standing close to each other in the rowdy airport. We were getting ready to board the plane that would be taking us to Washington D.C. on our school excursion

    (LANA’S POV)I would be lying if I said that I had a peaceful flight to Washington D.C. But I would also be lying If I said I had a stressful flight.So there you have it, my flight was in the middle of both of moods. Maybe I would say it was balanced….sort of. How could it have been peaceful when I was fighting strongly to stop thinking about Atlas? It was a good thing that I was seated with Travis very far from where my former seat was because I may have been unconsciously stealing glances.I was not on a roller coaster all the time anyway, Travis was nice enough to let me do my writing and he offered me refreshments a lot of times. It would have been perfect if we had not had that awkward conversation just as we were landing.“I’m so glad that you were right beside me throughout this flight.” He said when everyone was cheering around us in celebration of a safe landing.“It was a nice flight.” I said feeling a little but uncomfortable because of how Travis was starring at me.“Y

I was overwhelmed with so many emotions that I did not know what exactly to say or do.I just stood frozen to the spot as tears just kept on streaming endlessly down my face and this time around, they were not tears of sorrow. I have never had someone defend me in that way, neither have I had someone say such beautiful things about me. I was lost in his actions and drowned by his words.He stood up to his mother and said these words right in front of our parents. He was doing it for me.My heart was filled with so much joy and appreciation. Even after I sent him out of my room, he didn’t get angry with me.My thoughts were soon interrupted by Atlas’s mother who let out a dry cackle that did not reach her eyes at all.

Mr Glass and I were the only ones who were not angry, we were uncomfortable and scared.I stood up to because everyone was standing and my body was shaking as tears crowded my eyes. Mr Glass was trying to conceal how stressed he was but I could sense it. He was uncomfortable but he was the first one to quickly voice his thoughts out slicing through the tension with a slight cough.“Why don’t we all sit down please? I promise we can talk about this better. We can settle this like grown, mature adults that we are.” He said with a shaky voice and a hopeful smile that fell flat amongst everyone in the room.No one even regarded him anymore. Mum and Nrs Shaughnessy were having a show down with their eyes. “I guess you a

We did not said a word to each other as the three of us sat down at the backseat of my dad’s car. I was too hurt to even say anything.Now, I felt more anxious as we followed the administrative building pathway that led us to the principal’s office.“You should be happy with your friends, Lana. They care about.” Dad tried. “They did not want that woman to walk all over you and that is why they came to tell us what was going on.”I nodded my head stiffly but I was not even paying close attention to what he was saying. I was thinking of what was going to happen once we were in the principal’s office.The secretary looked up with a polite smile which became shaky on her lips once she saw mum and dad’s expressions.“We are here to see Mr Glass, the principal.

I knew that a stressful day awaited me and I had to get myself ready for it.After taking a deep sigh, I got my backpack and led myself out of the room and down the hall. As I approached, I heard voices coming from the living room.My heart started racing as I thought about all the possible people who could come to my house this morning. The top of my list had to be Mrs Shaughnessy. Perhaps she found out that Atlas came to see me last night and it made her very furious. Maybe she was here to force me in to taking explication as my option. My throat was dry and my heart was racing as I walked towards the living room carefully with th

Then she got off to the bed and got herself a napkin that was on her reading table.“You can’t just come in here whenever you like, you know?” She said to me.Her voice was tired but angry as well.I crossed over to her but she moved backwards.

Not only that, Valerie’s hands were still placed on my thighs and that seemed to be the most annoying thing at the moment. I gently lifted her hand from my thigh and placed it down. Then I smoothed my clothes and pushed back the plate of food that was before me.“I said that I won’t be taking Valerie Wilson to the ball.” I stated in a very clear tone. There was a wave of shock that passed around the table and settled on everyone’s faces.“Don’t be rude, Atlas.” Mum said in a flat tone and then she turned to Jean Wilson and smiled at her. “Atlas has been so disoriented with all that was going on.”“Oh!” Jean Wilson said hurriedyly as she tried to lessen the tension in the room. “I heard all about that and so I understand. That low class girl is trying to pull your name through the mud!”“Exactly what I said!” Mum said immediately. “Atlas has been so destabilised with all that has been g

My friends and I had skipped the last class of the day for several reasons. To start with, we were all drained from the events that were occuring and dad said I had to be out the gate immediately school was over so it was either then or never for us to reconnect. Lunch time had been out of the question because Paige had to get ready for a tech quiz she had coming up. We had perfect records and so missing one class was not going to affect us. At this point, I did not mind missing a whole of school if I was being very honest.“This is all so messed up!” I repeated with a very deep sigh. We were seated outside school a
