ELLIE“What the heck are you here for?” I asked in an angry whisper as I stared at him in disbelief. There were just too many things that were off about his presence there. The emotions of shock and apparent embarrassment had me captive in the spot as I took a good look at Dylan who seemed like he had been waiting for that moment to show his face at such an inconvenient time. “Aren’t you going to explain yourself?” I asked as I was still trying my very best before I would be asked questions that I didn’t have the answers to. “Why would you have to show up at my front porch at a family dinner?”“Family dinner?” He asked as he seemed to be shocked about the whole thing. “I thought you lived with just your stepbrother, who doubles as your apparent lover and—““Oh please... spare me that crap. I live with his mother and my dad as well. What the heck were you thinking, Dylan? What happened to calling someone before showing up at their doorstep?” I could barely contain my rage for one mo

AIDENWhat was that cocky bastard doing there? I kept wondering to myself as I was staring at both of them, in the hope of finding out what could have been wrong with the picture I was staring at. “Aiden... just calm down for a couple of moments...” the way Ellie was quick to step in for him the moment my voice had risen to an unfriendly timbre. “He just swung by at the wrong time, but look, he’s on his way home right now.”I stared at him and he stared back as he walked away almost as if he had a lot of words that he wanted to say to me but was just unable to. He stepped into his car and drove away. From what I noticed, I had to conclude that he had to be some sort of spoiled kid, who simply got everything the way he wanted it with his parents and was probably thinking that he could have it that way right there. But I would be ever ready to burst his bubble. I couldn’t tell why I was feeling like my territory had been invaded. I made up my mind to keep my cool that time around. “

ELLIEI was glad that the awkward weekend had finally come to an end and that it was finally time to meet with real people in school once again. The house had been quite suffocating with all the absurd things that had gone on recently and I was in quite a hurry to get to school that morning. I had never been so glad about school in a while like I was at that point. It would have been hell if all of that had happened over the holidays.There were a lot of things that would make it all look like it had all been one big setup meant to make the whole step-sister role unbearable for me, but I was going to push through it all no matter what happened. To make it a bit better, I still had my meeting with Dylan to look forward to that day after school. That was a bit nice as it would make up for the embarrassment of the previous day at least. He had nearly blown it all when he had showed up at the dinner. “One step at a time...” I said to myself as I walked out of the house, earlier than e

ELLIE“What’s the matter?” I felt like it was something illegal to mention Dylan Brooks within the school. There were just too many things that made me feel like I was doing something wrong by having anything at all to do with Dylan. “You don’t know who Dylan Brooks is?” Jasmine made me feel even worse with that question. It felt like I had made the most foolish move one could ever make in life. “If I knew who he was, then I most certainly wouldn’t be asking you this. Could you just go ahead and tell me who he is so I can know what exactly it is I’m doing wrong.” I was getting pretty impatient at that point as Jasmine seemed to have me in suspense on purpose. “Dylan Brooks was one of our best football players until he transferred. He was on our school team but left due to some reasons best known to him.” Jasmine said with a sigh as I was expecting her to say something more and worse. “So...? Is that it? Is that all that’s wrong about Dylan Brooks?” I was really hoping that was all

ELLIETroy had almost frozen like a mannequin. He seemed like all his life had been sapped away from him in the most unimaginable way. The way his eyes were fixed on me had me feeling like I was Medusa, as the sight of me had him becoming like a stone at once. “Hello, Dylan...” I made sure all my words were well pronounced in every single move that I made at that point. I wanted Troy to be an active participant in the action that was happening right before him there and then.It was obvious that all the spotlights were on me at that moment when Dylan and I had embraced each other in the sight of everybody who had been looking. “I was almost thinking that you wouldn’t be able to come...” I could tell that Dylan was probably seeing my sudden sweetness towards him as awkward but that was what was required of me at that moment. “But here you are...”“You should know more than anyone that I have been looking forward to this meeting with everything within me. Besides, it’s been a while si

ELLIE’S POV “Are you listening to yourself right now?” I asked as I was trying to figure out what could have suddenly gone off in Troy's head at that point as he was simply acting out like a character who had suddenly forgotten his lines and took up another. Troy was silent for a few moments as he knew that he had nothing on me at that point. He was simply punching the air and was desperately seeking ways to take out his frustration. I wasn't in the mood for all of that. “Why did you have to go for Dylan of all people?” Troy finally asked the question which had been the thing killing him slowly. “Excuse me… but who the heck are you?” I asked with a quite dramatic tone that didn't fail to get on his nerves, as I saw his face redden from all the words I had said to him. “I see… you're doing all of this to get to me, right?” he asked with pain etched in his eyes. “You're not that important, Troy…” I said as I walked away, leaving him speechless. ***AIDENThe sounds of the noises

ELLIEIt was bound to be a long evening of football practice for Troy as he would be unable to raise his head without seeing me seated beside Dylan. I had yet to see both of them have an exchange like I had been expecting. But then, I was sure that it was bound to be something a bit like the rivalry between Aiden and Kai. But then, I’d had my fill of every single thing that was going on at that point. I was sure I had put up a good show for everyone to see and that made me satisfied. Right about then, I wanted to leave with Dylan as I was done giving everyone doses of what my new possible relationship could be like. “Do you enjoy football or do you just like coming here to see the hottest boys in school?” Dylan asked with a cunning smile on his face as he said each word that he said.“I won't lie…” I replied as I smiled back. “It's the latter. But then with time, I began getting to love all of the nuances that go on in between the lines.”“Oh wow…” Dylan said. “So which of the boy

ELLIE“Troy? Are you being serious right now?” I was almost feeling like I was living in a blooper at that point. It seemed like that interruption wasn't meant to happen at all. There were just too many things that were off about it.“What are you doing here?” Dylan asked as I was almost hiding behind him. The long awaited clash was finally happening right in front of me and I was simply getting ready to watch just what the extent of their rivalry had been. “I should be asking you that..." Troy's gaze kept shifting continuously between Dylan and me. “What are you both doing here?”"Well, it seems you didn't come here to practice, Maddox. You came here to look around for girls that could possibly have their eyes on you. That's not how you're going to bag a state championship for your school…" Dylan was pretty intentional with every single syllable that he spat at him. "If this is your way of playing mind games, then you're going to try harder, Brooks..." Troy was livid at everything

ELLIE "Kai, what do you mean you're here to take me out?" I asked, trying to hide the confusion and surprise in my voice. I could feel my heart beating faster, not because of excitement, but because I knew this visit wasn't going to end well. "I'm serious, Ellie. I mean every word I said, I want to take you out," Kai replied, his smile widening, reaching his eyes. "I wanted to spend some time with you. Just the two of us. Away from everyone else." I crossed my arms, trying to appear nonchalant. I didn't know what to say or do. As Kai spoke, my eyes didn't leave the door, as I was afraid Aiden might walk through it. I hated these kinds of visits. "Kai, this is unexpected. You should've called first." I swallowed. "I'm sorry for that, I know," the blue-eyed guy apologized, covering the space between us, "But I needed to see you. In person. And to be honest, I didn't want to give you a chance to say no over the phone." I sighed, glancing around the room as though searching for an

AIDEN It felt like my heart was going to be right out of my chest as I was seeing my tears happening right before my eyes. The phone in my hand grew shaky even though I was still filming the scenery of my mother's betrayal of Ellie's father who had probably trusted her enough to leave her all that time to go handle business somewhere else. Regardless of what I felt while watching my mother kissing another man who fortunately wasn't the cocky Dylan who had tried to have a go at Ellie. But it was still as painful as the betrayal that it was. I didn't know what it was that had me feeling just as hurt as the one who was being cheated on. There just weren't any words for the pain in my heart. With total disregard for repercussions and consequences, I drove the car right to where the car which my mother had been parked. I was speeding like I wanted to hit it from behind. There were just too many things that made me feel like I was about to create the biggest scene ever. The tires

AIDEN There was nothing cinematic about the moment as Ellie had remarked over the phone. The pressure of the moment was simply palpable on me as it was all feeling like I was going to get caught or I was going to catch my mother doing something that wouldn't leave my head in a while. For the past couple of moments, I had been following her from behind from the safest distance possible. There had been a few times when I had been close to losing them in the Manhattan traffic, but I managed to stay on track somehow and that had been something to be proud of as I was simply too good at that. Every single moment had me recalling back when I had been following Ellie and Troy. The heat of my jealousy back then had simply been over the limits and that had me feeling like I had been some hopeless stalker, not knowing that ability would come in handy in an even more important predicament. “Please don't be Dylan…” I had lost count of how many times I had muttered those words to myself and

ELLIE "I just hit the road now, and I'm hot on her tracks as we speak," Aiden said through the phone as though he was in the middle of a theft where he was being pursued by a troop of cop cars. "The target vehicle is in view as we speak." "You are sounding like some secret agent right now…" I teased from my end of the line even though the situation was quite a serious one which would tell him all he needed to know about his mother's deeds. "You can say that again. I'm giving her as much space as I can. I just want to see where this car goes from here." "Are you sure this would work?" I asked, still wondering if it was worth it after he had seen some other women like her. I felt like he would be going on a wild goose chase if he would insist on following her to where she was going. "What if you get caught?" "Ellie I followed you to Troy's house one time and you didn't…" Aiden took hold of himself at once as he just realized that he had given himself away with that misplaced stat

AIDENA new day had come and I wasn't sure of the plan that I had in mind as I was soon trying to get myself ready to face my mother who had been the reason for my fallen mood. It was quite annoying and embarrassing that my suspicions were looking to be true at that point, even after all the drama she had used in trying to get away the last time. As I walked down the stairs, to head for the court at the back, I had my eyes open and ready for any signs of my mother. I could almost tell how it would all end if I dared to confront her upfront. There was simply no means of telling that she had been on the phone with some guy named Dylan to whom she had confessed love. That would lead me to defeat all over again. I would possibly have to apologize when she was the one who was at fault. That was one of the worst predicaments for me. "Be smart…" I said to myself as I was simply trying my best to keep it all cool and calm as I had the ball in my hands ready to take out all of the mixed fe

KAIThey were up to something. I just knew it but I just couldn't prove it. That was the main source of my frustration as I held that ball in my hands while I was still trying my best not to take my focus off the ball and the hoop which was the only thing that I could control at that point..But it was hard not to think of Aiden having a good time with Ellie. There were just too many things on my mind as I was trying not to think of anything that had to do with Aiden and that one girl that wouldn't leave my mind. "Ugh…" it was all feeling like I was stuck in some sort of cycle that just wouldn't end. The cycle always began with the sight of Aiden and his so-called sister whom he claimed not to be screwing. After seeing them, the thoughts would just stick in my head and I would need basketball to get it off my head.I sank the shot, but I still wasn't feeling the satisfaction that I used to get from the sport before it became a means for me to get my mind off Ellie. The only thing tha

AIDEN"I think your mother is seeing someone else…" Ellie said with such a sad look on her face.At first, I had been relieved that it hadn't been the news of my scuffle with Gina. But then, I was even more troubled by the fact that a suspicion that I had allowed to fallow when it had caused a lot of trouble the first time, was now popping up from a source that wasn't me. That aroused all my suspicions which had been buried beneath the layers of my conscience. I had swallowed them up the leg time because of my mother who had been hurt by it. But it was all popping out again. There were a lot of things that had me feeling like I was getting to the bottom of the whole thing that had taken place in that awkward weekend which had happened in almost a blur.The memory of the texts was coming back to my head. The words and the emotions that seemed to have been behind them when they had been sent. There was no way that moment couldn't stay etched in my mind which seemed to be susceptible to
Tangled Hearts: A forbidden Romance Chapter 118
AIDENThere was a rush in my very being as I was trying to make sure that I could get to Ellie before the news of me and Gina would get to her. It felt like my rush would all end up being in vain as I was trying not to let it all get to me. At that point, I was beginning to rehearse the words I would use in explaining myself, just in case it turned out that I hadn't been quick enough. I was almost pulling over like I had robbed a bank. I just hoped I wouldn't be asked too many questions about that as all of that was beginning to make me lose my cool. I was willing to do anything to make that save happen.There wasn't any time to look back as I got out of the car and made my way to the front door which I opened with my key, as I felt like knocking would only go on to waste the little time I had even more."What's all this about?" Mother asked as she was thinking of what could have been making me run like there was some fire I was trying to put out somewhere. "What's gotten into you?"

SANDRA"How dare she?" I muttered to myself as I realized that she had hung up on me yet again as she was making a show of her youthful arrogance. Everything about her seemed to remind me of her father, and it was simply annoying that all I could do was stay behind those bars all day and all night while complaining about how miserable being in there had been for me. The thoughts of her father brought me pain, shame, and regret, and that was exactly what came to mind each time I thought of Ellie. That had been why I had gotten so ticked off when she pointed out that I always took it out on her. It was hard for me to think straight at that point.Right there at that moment, I was feeling the pain that came with all of the memories which I had been suppressing all that time. It felt like the canister that had been holding it all together had been popped open by the way that my daughter had spoken to me. I just couldn't wait to get out of there and come teach her a lesson. Ellie had gro
