♡ Mia's pov ♡My phone pings softly.I looked up, gauging to see if the teacher heard. When his eyes had not left the papers stacked on his desk to pin me with a nasty school, I quickly put on my phone.My stomach knots when I saw it was a message from Kade.Kade: Meet me outside the bathroom.I chewed on my lips wondering why he'd want me to skip class. I looked up again at the teacher and then back down to my phone.It wasn't like we were currently in the midst of learning something important, in fact, Mr. Miller had only told us to open our textbooks to page 288 and that was it.The man had been sitting down on his chair for the last fifteen minutes doing nothing but staring at the papers on his desk. He had not acknowledged us since he sat down.So decided it would be better to go to Kade than stay here. I pushed my phone inside my bag and stood up slowly.I'm aware of everyone's eyes on my back as I stride over to Miller's desk. He raises his gaze when my shadow falls over the pa
♡ Mia's pov ♡ "Oh shit Mia. I'm so sorry. Fuck." Kade freaked out, his eyes wide with clear panic. He looks at me like he had done the worst thing in his life. I didn't really know how to feel about that. "It's fine, I'll buy a plan b on our way home." I lift my hand to brush my fingers against his cheek. "It'll be okay Kade. It's not the end of the world." My mouth twisted out a smile that didn't quite reach my eyes. He notices and drops his forehead against my own. Shaking his head a little, eyes closed tightly and a long drawled sigh coming out of his mouth, Kade utters. "I'm so sorry Mia. I've never been so careless before." He admitted. Seeing how bad he felt by cumming inside me, had me lost. I really didn't know how to feel right now. Don't get me wrong, there was definitely a slight panic within me knowing that I could actually get pregnant this way. And of course I was not ready for that. I was still a teenager and he was too. We were definitely not ready for that. But
♡ Mia's pov ♡Two and a half months.Two and a half months had gone by since Kade and I had begun dating. Things hadn't progressed much except, well for this.....'Ahh." I grumble then coughed as I wiped my mouth with the back of my hand.I sighed, my other hand gripping the side of the toilet bowl as I wrenched inside it again. My throat felt like acid and the bitter taste of vomit only led me to throw up another wave of vomit.I coughed, wincing as I clenched my eyes tightly."Mia hurry up in there I need to piss!" Austin yelled behind the door, banging it a little with his fists."In a second Austin!" I tried to yell back but my voice cracked and I sounded like an old lady who had smoked too many cigarettes her entire life and now lived with ten cats who piss on her bed.I flushed the toilet to rid the stench and sight of vomit and slowly rise to my feet. I staggered to the sink, opened the faucet, and washed my mouth.When I felt as though the taste hadn't really moved out of my m
♡ Mia's pov ♡I had an inkling it was just a stomach bug. I perhaps had eaten something bad. There was nothing to be concerned about.My thoughts had trapped me inside my head for a long while now as I aimlessly push books into my locker. I wasn't even sure if I was putting in the right books.My brain was that muddled.Sighing heavily I closed the locker."Er," I jolt when Brian's grinning face beamed at me."Sorry did I startle you?" Brian asked, leaning against the locker beside mine, his lips quirking into a smirk.No I just jolt for no reason."Um," I mumble and took a step back before fixing my own bag on my shoulder."No. I just wasn't expecting you to be.....here." I admitted.Brian and I weren't exactly close but I did try to answer his greetings when our paths crossed which they crossed a lot. He was after all Kade's friend and Colby had made it his mission to seat beside Kade. This led to us having to seat with Brian and wherever Brian goes, Brianna follows.I still remembe
♡ Mia's pov ♡I looked at her, feeling the blood drain from my face. She was the last person I'd ever want to see me like this.When did she even get in here?Was I spewing out my entire breakfast down the toilet so loudly that my ears failed to pick up on the sound of her footsteps which I was sure was loud given those heels she wore?I cleared my throat, willing to play this cool so she'd not suspect anything. "Ate something bad." I grimaced, walking out of the stall completely and strutting over to the pipe so I can wash my mouth and hopefully move that God awful taste of puke.Her eyes tear away from me, she digs her hand in her small purse and pulls out lipgloss. Looking back at me, she mumbles. " I don't care for your problems Mia and you don't have to explain to me why you were puking out your guts in there. It's not any of my business. "Rolling her eyes, she started applying her lipgloss.Well then. That was at least better than her acting like she cared and throwing question
♡ Mia's pov ♡ The door opens to my room and the light coming from my laptop floods the darkened hallway and lights up Kade's figure. He stood there, almost unsure if to enter. But as I fix myself to sit up upon his arrival, he walks in and closes the door behind him. He stared at me quietly, but in the depths of his eyes, I could see the questions racing through his head. He was worried about something. About me. His brows draw together and he takes a step forward. It was stiff and unsure. "Did I do something?" He said tightly with dread. His question completely catches me off guard. "What?" I whispered out in surprise. "Did I do something wrong Mia?" He rakes a hand through his hair and it's then I notice his rigid form. Whatever he was feeling at this moment, was eating inside of him, feeding on his calm emotions. I furrow my brows, lifting myself on my knees as the cover falls off my thighs. I reach over my laptop and pause the movie that was playing on the screen. It's d
Kade's pov "Don't stare at me," She whispered wiping the vomit dripping down her chin with her bony hand. Her fingers shook and the paleness in her complexion was very alarming.She clears her throat cringing. She must've taken the bitter taste of the vomit she just spewed out.She sags on the cold tiles, her knees underneath her weight. And as she bends over to rest her head on her arm on the toilet seat, her spine and ribs poke out visibly.I nearly wince but I had gotten used to the sight of her like this for a while now."Need some water?" I asked, leaning against the doorframe.She'd most likely decline my offer to help like she always did. Probably spur out harmful words that always fuck with my head too.But she was my mother and I couldn't for the life of me not try to help her."Just get the fuck out of here Kade. You don't need to see how much of a mess up I am. " She grumbles, gagging then coughs. It's loud and it shakes her whole body.This one must've been painful.Too
Kade's povThere are a few things racing through my mind right now and yet, not one eased me enough to keep my gaze connected with hers. They dropped to the counter.There's a heaviness in my gut and a lump in my throat that I swallowed. But swallowing somehow made it hurt and I realized that I was on the verge of a panic attack.I never had one, not since the morning after mom's death. That morning waking up to an empty house, with no gagging sounds or the stench of alcohol. That morning everything came slamming to me in full force.I remember not being able to breathe, with thoughts of my life turning just like hers. I remember gasping for air, my vision turning blurry as I fall to the floor, my knees slamming hard on the carpeted concrete.I remember gasping out for help, yet no one came. No one would. It was just me alone. Me without a mother or father. Me without anyone.I remember air not reaching into my lungs fast enough and then everything had gone black. Until I woke up to t
Bailey's povI should have known. There's a bubble of laughter that's stuck in my throat, laughter that would be dry of any emotion they deprived me of if I could let it out. I could see it now, I now could see why this was very likely to be her. Juliet. As she took her elegant time to come down the creaky stairs, disgust twisted within me along with hatred. This makes it two people I now hate. Stefan crossed his arms, his gleaming amused eyes on me. I hated that I was their amusement toy. As her pretty face came into view, the sadist gleam in her eyes made a shiver run down my spine sharply. She's at the end of the stairs, her hand grabbing the handrail as she turns to face me fully. She grinned. " Well hello there Bailey," her giggle makes me nauseous and I rip my teary eyes away from her. Why did she go this far? What have I done to this girl?Stefan snorted, reaching out to grab a lock of my hair. I flinched away and he chortles with her. " Now don't act like we're strangers
Bailey's povThe familiarity of that voice sends a sharp chill down my spine, my heart hammering in my chest. It can't be. It cannot be him.I am imagining this.There was no way.It just can't be.Yet, his scent is familiar, and his voice....Pieces start to fall into place and my stomach lurchs and I gag as realization dawns on me. Someone I considered a friend. Someone I trusted. Why would he do this? Why would he do this to me?Why would Stefan do this to me?A wave of betrayal weighs in my chest and also fury. I can't believe I trusted him. Why would he even do this? I rake my brain, trying to think of why Stefan would even play this sick game with me but came up with nothing.But then when he dipped his head in the crook of my neck and inhaled my scent, sighing with pleasure, a sinking realization dropped in my belly. " You've always smelt so good Bailey."His words sent a sharp shiver of disgust and repulsion clashing within me. His close proximity makes my stomach churn and I
Bailey's povIt was getting late, dark and I knew my parents didn't need to worry about another kid right now. I fished out my phone and texted mom that I was fine and would be home in a second. My eyes caught their many missed calls, and I bit my lip, hoping I had not worried them too much. I caught other missed calls from Kaleb and Mirabella too, but, I couldn't bring myself to text back. I wasn't sure how I could break it to them that my life was falling apart. That if my sister was in pain, then that meant I was in pain too. And if something happened to her, I swallowed. Then something happened to me too. The park was empty now, everyone had already gone home. I peeled away from the swing, my bum a bit numb from sitting on it for hours. My throat was achy from crying and I cleared it, picking up my bag. And that's when I heard it, or better yet felt it behind me. I am about to whirl around, but I am too late as a huge hand clamp around my lower face with a rag. My eyes widen a
Bailey's povThe world stopped. It felt like it stopped. The words that moved passed her lips hit me so hard, that it pushes the air out of my lungs. Cancer. The word was like a mocking echo we had promised to leave behind us. We had won. She had won. I looked down at my little sister, squished between our parents. Her face is unreadable but I know she is well aware of what is going on around her. How? God why? She had won? Hadn't she?She had won!"No," I whispered, my heart tearing apart. I don't think I will have a heart anymore after tonight. It doesn't feel like it will heal after this announcement. I shook my head, my vision going blurry as I begin to cry. " It can't be. You're lying!" The last words come out like a yell, my throat aching with the aggressiveness I used. " Tell me you're lying mom!" I screamed, causing Lil to squirm away and look at me in fear. I quickly toned down my anger, not wanting her to fear me. I approached them, falling to my knees beside the bed, st
Bailey's pov"Can I have another?"I bit my lower lip to fight off the giggle but couldn't fight off the smile as I leaned over the console to plant a soft kiss on Kaleb's lips.He nibbled on my lower lip and before I knew it, we were kissing deeply. I was the first to break away, breathing so rough I had to take in a good amount of air into my lungs to calm down my racing heart.Kaleb lifted his hand and cupped my cheek, his thumb brushing against my cheek lovingly. "I love you," he whispered, every word coming out with such honesty I melted."I love you too," I responded truthfully, kissing his nose and giggling when he scrunched it up in an adorable way."Babe," he whined, pouting slightly. "I'm the one who is supposed to do that."I rolled my eyes, laughing as I pulled away, but for good measure, I planted another kiss on his nose and jokingly murmur. " I think I rather be the man in the relationship," with a teasing grin I successfully got out of the vehicle whilst he was dumbfou
Bailey's povMy fingers curled through his soft strands, gripping them tightly. My eyes closed, my hips buck off the bed and a scream curled in my throat as his tongue rolled around my clit teasingly.He groaned, gripping my thighs to keep me from moving as his lips wrapped around my clit and he sucked."Kaleb," I moaned and he nipped my clit, making me jerk off in surprise."Sam," he reminded, nipping my lips in warning. I giggled, only to moan when the tip of his tongue sank into my opening."Oh Sam," I sighed, my eyes peeling open to stare at him between my thighs. He had a satisfied smirk on his lips while his tongue was very much still inside my opening.With a dark look crossing his eyes, he began to push his tongue in and out of my opening, his upper lip pressing against my throbbing clitoris.He moaned as I grip his hair, my nails unintentionally scraping his scalp. He suckled and slurped, eating me out until I saw the dotings of the little stars in my vision.As he tongue fuc
Bailey's povA loud snore made me look over at the bed. Mira had fallen asleep about five minutes ago and Kristina and I didn't want to wake her up.So much for having a full two hour study time."Hmm I like it like that Ryan,"I furrow my brows and looked over at Kristina who gave me the same look. Amusement."Did she just talk in her sleep?" Kristy snorted giggle, throwing her hand over her mouth. I nodded, pushing my teeth into my bottom lip and hoping I'd not cave and burst into the laughter that was already bubbling in my chest."So good,"Kristina's eyes widen and she mouthed. "I think she's having a sex dream."I nodded, pressing my knuckles to my mouth as I stared at my drooling best friend on the bed. Someone would think she was dreaming about food with the amount of drool that slithered down the sides of her mouth."Definitely about Ryan." I giggled as Mira gripped the sheets and let out a small moan."It honestly feels like we're intruding on their moment." Kristy snorted,
Bailey's pov"I hate this," Mira moaned, turning around to lie on her back and stared, well more like glared at the ceiling.Mira, Kristina and I were doing a last minute group study for the exam tomorrow.Kristina rolled her eyes, lifting her arms over her head and yawned. "For the first time, I agree with you on this."Mira looked over at her in the bed, her eyes twinkling with that mischievous glint I know all too well. "How about you give us the details on what's going on between you and Mr Malik after your talk?" She wiggled her brows and turned around in her stomach.Kristina flushed instantly, her eyes quickly darting to the doorway. "Mira!" She hissed.Mira shrugged. "Parents not home yet and that dweeb of a brother is in his room, mopping because it's girls time and he can't have his girlfriend." She rolled her eyes, scrunching her nose."Hey," I said playfully to her. "Leave my man alone."Mira faked gag. "Did you hear it Kristy? Leave her man alone. Ew."I narrowed my eyes.
Kristina's pov"I'll see you guys later," I waved at Bailey and Mira as they left with Kaleb. They gave me worried glances and I smiled to reassure them that what I am about to do, I am okay and I can handle myself. As I watch the car drive away, I turn back around and stepped back into the school.School had just ended and everyone was making their way home. Except for me of course. I had unfinished business to do. That unfinished business had something to do with a certain art teacher who had been avoiding me like the plague.Justin usually stayed back a bit late. I'm not sure why, but whenever I have cheer practice he's always in his classroom when I pass by.I am praying he's still there and the classroom is empty.As I get closer, my fingers tremble and a spike of my heart rate made me swallow. I hated that I was so full of nerves. I didn't want to go over to him and stand in front of him and be a blabbering idiot.But I needed to do this.With a sudden burst of determination, I
