I couldn't believe it. Not even for a second. I couldn't fathom the thought of me liking Blade. All because of a stupid compliment. How stupid could I be to fall for something uttered from the lips of Blade Collins? The moron who doesn't love anything but himself. Self centred and arrogant to the farthest part of space and even then you'd have to go farther to match his arrogance. It's a modern-day miracle his head hadn't exploded yet from his oversized ego. The minute those words left his lying lips and my emotions betrayed me like a little bitch, the jerk seized the opportunity and stole my last Brownie.
A damn Brownie.
Who lies to steal food?
As if it couldn't get any worst I was stuck picturing his green eyes over and over in my head for hours.
I held his gaze for a couple of seconds before the words came from my lips softly."Go for a ride with you?" I intone with a raised eyebrow."Ah yeah," he responds with a gleam in his eyes."A ride?... With you?..." I repeat still holding his stare and saying the words as if they were something fragile and would go off like a bomb any minute.His look of amusement caused my eyebrows to rise to the point where they were probably no longer attached to my face. Blade's mouth curved into a smile and he watched me intently."Yes, right now," he says rather softly in his sexy masculine voice that I almost hadn't heard him speak.Staring w
Blade?... Favourite?... In one sentence?Okay everyone has officially lost their mind.They greeted each other heartily and I stared at Blade surprised seeing him looking genuinely happy and not wearing the usual annoying smirks."But don't tell the others," the gentleman says jokingly to Blade.My shock was wearing off rather slowly and I had to stop myself from gaping."I won't pop," Blade says and a snicker escaped, hearing him talking like that.The snicker seemed to have reminded them of my presence. The gentleman stared at me still happily smiling, then glanced back at his grandson who dear God must I say, looked slightly embarrassed.
Blade pulled away from me and turned to Scar. My legs felt numb and my chest felt as heavy as lead."See," Blade announces convincingly, "she's my girlfriend and she's just going through a thing."Scar glared at the both of us for a whole minute nothing but silence between us. Then suddenly he began to laugh, a deep raucous laugh that could cause tectonic plates to shift."She has wits," he says loudly, "I like her."Blade heaved a sigh of relief and I almost burst out laughing. Only if I myself wasn't still in shock. Scar shook his head still laughing but less loudly and made his way back to the mechanical shop.Blade turned to me frowning and I tried to mask what I had been thinkin
Could Blade really not be as bad as I thought he was? Or was the jerk only toying with my feelings? I couldn't like him. Not after hating him for so long. I'm a terrible judge of character, how could I let this happen. I scoffed at myself quietly and made my way to the house. I didn't even know what I thought of him anymore. Love him or hate him, I couldn't get him out of my mind, and it was driving me crazy.Adam was exactly where the doofus lives - on the living room couch. I didn't get why he left his room at all, he could practically live in there and I wouldn't have cared.Only the Beetle was in the garage, and it was obvious Helen wasn't home just by how quiet it was.I gave a loud snort, "Where's Helen and Victor?"Adam frowned
Hailey and Ossey? I didn't see that one coming at all. The guy's great and deserves a great girlfriend but the thought of him being googly-eyed and romantic was almost laughable. But who am I to judge, I know absolutely nothing about relationships never have and never will.My mind shifted to Blade for a split second and I shuddered and gagged and shook my head to erase that horrifying seconds thought. Almost as if everyone in the hallways had suddenly lifted from a trance loud whispering commenced. Oswald's friends were staring at him in complete awe and he looked lost. Students hurried down the corridor whispering, eager to go spread the news to anyone who hadn't witnessed the PDA of the century. Ossey's friends were teasing him and he scowled, ignored their jeerings and walked in my direction leaving them howling at him.Ossey approa
An entire day of searching and yet Blade was nowhere to be found. I wouldn't find him unless he wanted to be found. And he didn't. He had disappeared off the face of the earth like a single water droplet on a sunny day. Clearly, he knew some secret passages in and around the school that I didn't know about, otherwise how else would he have managed to disappear? If I hadn't hesitated to chase after him he wouldn't have gotten away or I'd at least seen where he went.I kept wondering if he was lying about not having gone through all the photos. Even if he hadn't, he had still gone through my cellphone and stolen pictures. Now he'd get to satisfy his disgusting fantasies, that he knows what I look like beneath the clothes.I couldn't turn up at his house. I'd be giving the jerk what he wanted. He even hinted at it himself. Offering the key
The evening sun felt great against my skin just thinking how horribly cold the weather had been not long ago."Decided where to go for your first date yet?" I ask Ossey Thursday after school."Hailey likes theme parks, so maybe there, I guess," he replies with his accent more pronounced and thick."Of course take her somewhere she likes," I say with a smile.The sky was a bright blue dotted with white clouds and a ray of magnificent golden sunshine reflecting against it."I almost forgot," I say turning to Ossey, "Emmett is throwing a party and I agreed to go and I thought you'd want to go too.""Emmett? As in the guy you have a cru
"I know it's last-minute but can you tell Phoebe there's a party tonight next door?" I plead, following Helen around the kitchen as again she checked her events calendar and was blatantly ignoring me."A party?... Where?" Victor's disembodied voice asks.Five seconds later he walked into the kitchen. His eyebrow furrowed as I followed Helen around with my face screwed up in annoyance."Tonight, next door," I reply pursing my lips and looking from Helen to him.His eyes gleamed when he saw her and I scoffed under my breath and he cleared his throat and looked back at me."Left or right?" He asks."Right."

The doorbell downstairs rang and I heard Helen's voice floating around before the door opened. Blade's voice greeted whoever opened the door and my heart panged nervously in my chest. I looked good, I told myself as I was doing some quick breathing exercises to calm the nervousness. My eyes swept over myself one last time in the mirror.I had let my hair down and it flowed in a mass of curls around my shoulders. The outfit I had chosen for my first date with Blade was an oversized sweater shirt that was opened back and held together with a ribbon, paired with off white lace shorts and platform sneakers. I gathered my cellphone and my purse and headed downstairs to where Blade was waiting. He was sitting on the couch, looking quite uncomfortable between Helen and Victor who seemed to be giving him'the talk'.I would have laughed if I wasn't already feeling so nervous.
My breathing was shallow and my heart hammered loudly in my chest. I allowed my legs to carry me as best as they could at the moment. The principal's voice continued yelling loudly behind us as Blade led the way down a staircase and I followed."C'mon," he urges a little out of breath as he reached the front door and threw it open.He allowed me to take the lead and he followed closely at my heels as our running footsteps echoed off the ground. The silence that had filled the streets before had been disturbed by our sprint to the Mustang plus my loud panting. Blade threw open the car door and I dashed around to the passenger's side and hopped in. He stepped on the gas as I closed the door. The tires screeched loudly before the car sped off. I was wheezing loudly from exhaustion. My heart was hammering in my chest and my body prickled un
"The principal's house?" I snap, a high guttural sound, "how did my cellphone end up at the principal's house you moron!"His lips tightened into a thin line and I was fuming. The only thing keeping me from attacking him was the fact that I'd never get my cellphone back without him."It's a long story sweetling, and if you plan on getting your cellphone back, I suggest we go now and save the interrogation for later," the asshole replies.I glowered at the smirk he was wearing and let out a frustrated hiss."Fine moron... Stay here while I go change," I command."Oh c'mon Tink, there's no need for that," Blade responds immediately, his eyes looking me over searchingly.
"So you're Brad and he's Chad?" I ask for the second time making conversation and sipping on a cup of strong liquor, all while staring up at the twin who had his hand over my shoulder."Yes," he replies smiling at me, "and you're Secret and your friend over there is Phoebe?" He questions."Yeah," I reply with a chuckle.Phoebe was busy conversing with Chad. She was cheery and flirting as only Phoebe would be.Brad spoke but I didn't hear a word of it. My mind was in a different universe and even when it wasn't I was too engrossed by everything happening around us. The music played loudly, and there were endless whoops and cheers."Do you want to dance?" He repeats loude
