Kade's povMrs. Cross nods. " I can hear it in your voice and see it in your eyes. You remind me of Haiden when he was your age. Annoying that he was, he was special in his own way, just like you are special in your own way to Kade. And I hope you know that." I could hear it in her voice, she was hinting at something but didn't know how to just come out and say it. But then her next words completely take me off guard. "I heard when you called out your mother's name while you were thrashing in your sleep." She admitted. I drop my gaze in embarrassment. It had been a while since I had a nightmare about my life with my mother. I wasn't sure if I had ever called out her name before. Not that there were anyone around to tell me. "In the letter, Gwen mentioned about using drugs and...." She trailed not sure if to perhaps use the word prostitution. Sighing heavily she continues. " That must not have been the best life to grow up in. Did she do anything to you or force you to do anything
♡ Mia's pov ♡"Good morning mom," I said, my voice cracking through the air and reaching her ears.I yawned. I felt extremely tired for some odd reason even though I knew I had a good sleep.Mom turns around, fork in her hand and with eyes wide, almost as if she was somehow startled to hear my voice so early."Oh you're awake! How was your night? Heard a movie playing when your dad and I passed by your door." She smiles. "Anything good on the screen?"Mom usually asked about the movies I watch. It was her way of bonding and trying to know my interests. So it wasn't weird that she asked. It was just a little strange that her voice had a chirp of knowing. One that kind of made me look at her in suspicion.Walking further into the kitchen, I leaned against the counter as I replied to her. "Yeah, Jurassic World was really good."Well, it was the first thirty minutes or so, I somehow had dozed off halfway through. I didn't even know when Kade got up to leave to his room.I was bummed out t
♡ Mia's pov ♡Have you ever wished that the moment you're in right at this very second was just a terrible, annoying, but terrible, embarrassing dream?Just a dream.But of course, reality kicks you in the balls, only that I had no balls because well I was a girl and a girl has a vagina, boobs okay I'm going off topic.But what I'm trying to say is that I wished this was all a dream. One I'll wake up from and be very happy that it was in fact a dream and not reality.But sometimes wishes don't come true.And now, as I pray silently, pinching myself harshly and looking at mom like she was some sort of alien spirit who had taken over my mother's body, I only wished that this wish for this to be a dream was actually true.And dammit. It wasn't."Well, the space looks good enough. Unless the guy has a huge load." Mom snorts as she pulls the tip of the condom a little more to give more 'space.'I cringe unable to hide that one from my face. I twisted my skin again, hoping I'd 'wake up', on
♡ Mia's pov ♡"Are you okay?" I asked Kade, chewing my bottom lip as I spared him a glance.From the moment dad cut the cucumber in half he had been like this, mute and practically a ghost judging by his pale complexion.It was rather unsettling to see him like this because usually, he would be throwing me cheeky glances. But his gaze had been set at the front the entire time we had been in the car and he definitely looked lost in his own head.And it was even more strange that he hadn't tried to tease me when he usually did when Colby wasn't here. And Colby wasn't because he caught a ride with Stanly today.So it was just us two, in complete awkward silence.I didn't like this silence.He hadn't spared me a single glance.Even his reply was abrupt and dull. It was like he wasn't even here. "Yeah."I pinch my brows together and looked ahead before I crash the car. We were heading to school and we were a tad bit later than usual but not entirely late for school.We still had about ten
♡ Mia's pov ♡"So I'm thinking about dying my hair in green just to match with the school's uniform. Think Stanly would love it?" Colby asked.I nodded even though I wasn't really paying attention to his words. Honestly, the only thing that registered in my head were the words love and it.Apart from that, I didn't hear anything."So Gracie shart on the front lawn of the school and Phillip stepped on it. Do you think the school board will press charges? I mean you gotta go when you gotta go, you know what I mean?" He asked which I nodded to, still not really paying attention."Your skirt has a huge hole at the back and I can see your granny panties. Think the guys will bend you over and spank the shit outta your ass?" He questioned. I nodded."Are you even listening to me?" Colby huffed out with a breath of irritation.I nodded again, putting another book into the locker. I wasn't even sure it was the right book. I was just aimlessly putting in books and hadn't bothered to check which
♡ Mia's pov ♡Colby's eyes are wide. Practically like globes honestly. And they were filled with disbelief, shock, terror and confusion."You're joking? Is it April fools or some shit? Because Mia girl, you can't blow up my mind like that, it's way too early for this shit." Colby lets out in one breath.I wiped my mouth with the back of my hand, sighing as I rose to my feet. "Unfortunately no, it's not April fools. Nor are we even in the month of April. I'm not kidding Colb, I've been feeling sick for a few days now."I flushed the toilet while my best friend looked at me like I was some kind of ghost.Was I pale?I opened my mouth to ask him but he beats me to it. "Does he know?"His question completely took me off guard even though I should have expected it.I looked away from him guiltily and sidestep him to walk to the sink. I hear his exaggerated breath behind me and cringed knowing he was about to throw a fit."Oh my God Mia! You didn't tell him?! Are you crazy? He deserves to k
♡ Mia's pov ♡Plop.My eyes widen.Oh no."Mia. What was the sound of that? Did you take a dump or?" Colby's voice cracks through the door.I winced, turning around slightly to stare at the toilet bowl. Floating and looking ready to drown in the water was one of the pregnancy tests.I managed to have caused it to slip from my fingers when trying to pull up my jeans. It was a bad idea to have been so close to the toilet in the first place.Now I was paying the price.With my jeans almost at my hips, thankfully I still had one test alive and in my grasp as I use the other hand to pull it up my jeans while backing away from the toilet."Don't get mad. But one of the tests is currently having the time of its life in the toilet bowl." I winced while speaking."You dropped them in the toilet!" Colby blasted in disbelief.I cringe. "I said one Colby. The other is safe....kinda." I pinched the test not wanting my fingers to touch where my pee had touched."Girl you better not drop the other.
♡ Mia's pov ♡"You didn't go to kill the baby did you?"I felt like I was zapped somewhere else, another reality, where no one spoke, not a single sound was heard, except for Brianna's voice.I looked around the room lost with my ears ringing.I must've heard wrong.Why else would everyone be so frozen?Why we're there no reactions or changes of expressions?Why was Kade so-I stop when my eyes fell into a blue storm. He was also frozen where he stood, his hand still plastered to the table, his gaze still on me, his face so...stiff.His eyes, on the other hand, they told something, they wanted to express something. But all I seem to get out of them was the look of confusion."Did you?"Her voice, was so acidic with false worry. So nasty.They pulled me out of that reality where I only saw frozen faces and threw me in another where the faces expressed different emotions.Confusion. Shock. Interest. Intrigue. And expectation. They were expecting my response.My heavy tongue gave me reli
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
