Alexis's POV;
Buzz buzz......buzz buzz
What is that?!
With a groan, I move closer to my bedside cupboard trying to get my hands on what kept making that blaring noise.
"Hello." I say into the phone with my voice sounding groggy.
"Alexis Coleman the first, don't you tell me you are still sleeping! Get your lazy butt off your bed, I'll be picking you up in fifteen minutes!" A soft feminine voice yelled at the other side of the phone.
With her threat, My eyes open widely and see that its 7:30AM on my clock. I realized that i didn't set an alarm before going to sleep the day before. It's first day of senior year and I'm already late.
I should be in school by at least 7:20AM every weekday.
I rush out of my bed, slip my feet into my pink fluffy slippers then sprinted to the bathroom where i brushed my teeth. I turn on the shower and got sprayed cold water.
"Could this day get any worse?" I complained as my hands held my body as if shielding it away from something.
I manage through through the freezing water and rushed out in my bathrobe.
I comb my dark brown hair then tied my hair upwards into a ponytail after which I rush downstairs to get some bread from the kitchen but I rather found Sophie in the kitchen making breakfast. I grab a toast, gave her a quick hug before running out the door.
As i walked to the street I noticed Jazz Honda civic slowing down when she notices me. I enter the car and greeted her, she was still applying lipstick even though we were late.
"It's enough Jazz we are late already!" I complained. She rolled her eyes and ignored my comment and continued applying her lipstick like I didn't say anything.
"And now I'm done!" Jazz clapped her hands together signifying happiness before turning to me. "Listen girl, I love you but you might not want to look good but I do." She commented in a snarly tone but burst into laughter two seconds later.
I really didn't know how our friendship lasted this long when we were polar opposites maybe its because she was so sweet or the fact that she didn't try to change the way i am or the fact that she isn't embarrassed to be my friend because of the way i dress or maybe it's because she would always stick up for me when I got bullied. I really didn't know but i knew that our friendship would still last longer.
I was too busy thinking of all her attributes I didn't notice when she entered school and parked at her usual spot.
She tapped me on my shoulder, "Aren't you getting off?" She asks with a chuckle. I nod my head and take a deep breath as I unbuckle my seatbelt, open the door and get off.
If she knew what I was thinking of she wouldn't let me hear the end of how great she is.
I see the new freshmen running around the halls looking for their classrooms as I waited for Jazz to lock the car. She walked to me and she noticed where my attention was.
"We were like that once." She commented with a smile on her face.
"We were young and dumb." I corrected and she chuckled.
"Seems someone woke up on the right side of the bed today."Jasmin said jokingly as she saw Andy walking over to us with a grin on his face.
"I agree." I added and we both chuckled.
Andy just stood there smiling, he grabbed my hand, "Let's go to our first class." I waved Jazz and told her we would meet up during lunch.
How Andy always found a way to know my classes were still a mystery to me but I didn't mind, he has always been protective over me like an elder brother would.
While at chemistry class Mr Wilson was talking about Matter and I was taking notes when the door bursted open to reveal a frowning Kyle Matthews who still looked as gorgeous as ever with that blonde hair of his.
"Mr Williams you are on time today, we only have twenty five minutes left before this class ends." Mr Wilson said tryibg to act strict while glancing at his watch.
Kyle smirked.
He stood at the door, his eyes scanning for a place to seat and for a second there our eyes met but he immediately broke the connection as he moved and sat with a group of guys in the back.
I feel like a stalker.
I felt someone nudge my arm, I turn to see Andy who leaned in to whisper to me, "Who does this guy think he is? Coming to class late, causing a scene?! Does he think he's the hottest guy in school?" He scoffed at the last statement.
"I don't know! He definitely isn't even that good looking." I bluntly lied.
"Yes, I know right." He replied to me.
The bell rang signifying the end of the period, Mr Williams announced a test that would be coming up on friday.
And that's how the classes just went by with Andy by my side and then it was time for lunch.
Andy and I both grabbed our lunch trays and made way to our usual table, I got caught up arguing with Andy over a previous test answer that I didn't even pay attention to my surroundings.
Any normal person would notice that I wasn't paying attention to where I was going, my feet were leading me.
I kept arguing and i felt my tray hit something, causing the food to pour on something, moved back and my tray fell.
My eyes widen.
Alexis' POV;Andy and I both grabbed our lunch trays and made way to our usual table, we got so caught up in what we were arguing about and didn't notice someone walking up to me and the next thing I heard was a splat and my eyes widen.**My glasses fell off and so I went down to pick them up.I was so scared to look up to who it was but by the shoes I had a gut feeling although really hope it isn't who I think it is. I take a deep breath and mustered up courage to face my doom.Do you remember how i asked if this day could get worse? Well It just did.I saw a face glaring at me not just any face though, it was the face of Christina Hollister, the one who hates my guts even though I never really knew why. She is the most popular girl in Greenfield High because she looked so perfect. Her blonde hair was shoulder length, her body stat
Alexis's POV:After having dinner with Sophie, I went straight up to my room, laid on my bed and today's events kept on replaying in my head.I was interrupted from my thoughts when my phone vibrated, I picked it up and saw it was a text from Jazz.Jazz: babygirl are you good?Me: yeah why wouldn't I be? What happened today happens everyday, I'm used to it and besides you were there and made me feel better.Jazz: are you sure? I feel like you're lying just because I can't see you.Me: so do you want
Alexis's POV;I just let my tears flow because keeping them in just kill me. Christina teased me on a daily basis but this year I think she'll kill me with all these little visits in the cafeteria.**"Why do you always keep quiet? Whu don't you ever stand up for yourself?" A familiar husky voice asked.I raised my head to see who it was but my eyes only met a paragon male fitness which was Kyle watching me from far. I didn't know what to say so I return to my previous position faced down and left my ponytail swinging."Aren't you gonna talk to me?" He asked again but I still didn't respond."Fine, whatever don't talk, I don't even know why I even came out here." He said through a gritted teeth and stormed off.Is he mad?The intensity of my tears greatly increased, not beca
Jasmin's POVAfter the incident with Christina at the cafeteria the other day, I've just been thinking a lot about Kyle recently and I think Christina awakened this intense attraction I have towards him because now, I want him more than ever.Flashback 5 weeks ago"Good morning darling!" I hear someone chirp so early in the morning.It cannot be morning right now!"Just five more minutes please," I pleaded covering my face with my thick blanket."No! Go take a shower now!" The voice thundered at me but I ignored it and still tried to get more sleep.After silence engulfs the room for a while, my body relaxes and I'm about to sleep for real but then my blanket was dragged away from me, exposing me to this cold world."
Alexis's POV;After all that incident with Christina, I decided to study because I have a test coming up tomorrow and I can't let that blonde bimbo ruin my senior year. The cafe was semi empty so I just decided to sit on one of the empty table, take out my chemistry textbook and started studying.People can be stupid, but books definitely can't. Good one Alexis.My phone which was placed on the wooden table chimed and I saw Jasmin's face and name on the screen, I answered it.Jazz: hey baby girl!Me: what's good?Jazz: do you wanna go out tonight?Me: no...can't I have a huge test tomorrow which I need to read for. Wait we're in the same class, why aren't you studying?Jazz: girl, it's senior year, I'm not letting any test hold me down! Its always the same with you when will you have fun Lexi i
Alexis's POV;After Jasmin dropped me off i went straight up to my room and arranged it a little not that it wasn't arranged before its just that my room was always kinda messy whenever i prepare for school.I then go to my mom's room to look for her, but she wasn't there. So i go downstairs checked the kitchen but she wasn't there so i guessed she was at the store since even Sophie wasn't there too.So i watch some TV to pass time and then there was a knock on the door and I go to check it out and find a smiling Sophie who comes in"Where's mom?" I ask."She's doing a night shift at the cafe so I'm in charge." Sophie said with a smile plastered on his face."Okay.. I wanted to tell you-""So Mark's coming over tonight so stay in your room till tomorrow morning." Sophie interrupted me."I will c
Alexis's POV;The sleepover was a mess it was boring and I don't think jazz had a good time either except for the food part."How was the sleepover lex?" Sophie asked."It was terrible we didn't have our usual style I don't know it was different." I confessed."Why sweetie?" Mom asked."Well for starters we didn't talk like how we used to and she slept off immediately after after dinner but I couldn't sleep and came down but to a horrific scene." I say starring at sophie who went red with embarrassment."Which scene don't exaggerate Lexi," she said looking at mom."Well you did-""Can we just change the subject" Sophie says interrupting my sentence."I'm going with Sophie to the café mom," I informed her as we are about to leave.It was a quie
Alexis's POV;"Get up sleepyhead!" Jazz screamed hitting me with my own pillow for the 60th or 100th time."No not now it's a weekend the only time I get to sleep in." I complained."Get up or else....." She warned."Or else what just let me sleep!" I said turning to the other side.It became silent, yes maybe she finally gave up and went downstairs. I began to fall asleep again but my eyes bursted open when I felt something cold pour on me to see Jazz standing beside me with a bowl of water, she poured water on my leg like I wasn't cold enough."Why'd you do that!" I yelled with anger clear in my voice."I did tell you to get up didn't I?" She shot back."Fine, so why did you make me get up at I turn to look at the clock 7am my eyes widened with anger, why the hell am I up at 7am in
Kyle's POVWe stood at the sidewalk for over five minutes just staring at each other. I spent my time looking for her and not practicing what I'd say if i actually saw her again.This was weird. This silence was the loudest. It was us calling out to each other without knowing what to say."This is awkward." She said after kicking a stone with her foot."Tell me about it! We were never like this"I examined her. Her eyes were still sparkling and the dress she wore without a doubt made her looking astonishing."So what are you doing here?"I looked at her for a minute. Is she really asking me why I'm here!? Isn't it obvious?&n
Kyle's POV"Fine. I'll tell you." She finally surrendered."Go on..""I know they had an aunt in LA. Glendale to be specific.""Great. Give me the address."She took a pen from the desk and wrote something and handed it over to me. I read it and it looked legit."Thank you. Let's keep this encounter in this room.""But first...Mr Peterson, You are fired!" I turn my attention to the man behind me."But she told you what you wanted, why am I getting fired?" He grumpily complained."Managers don't have sex with the people they are managing." I said before exiting the cafe.
Kyle's POV Did I just hear him right? Did he just say her mom died?! "Are you being serious?" I asked with a faded smile. "Yes. They had her wake last week and the funeral, I guess is on Saturday? I'm really not sure." Ashton explained and so many things began running through my mind. "I need to see Alexis. Right now." I muttered under my breath and made my way to my car parked outside. I can't begin to imagine how she must be feeling. I drove to her house and knocked at the door and waited for a response but nothing. &nbs
Dedicated to pacesettersj for her encouraging comments and votes on each chapter.Kyle's POV;I put my key in the ignition and started it,determined to go to Alexis.She told me to give her space.Well fuck it,i have her space yesterday.I drove to Alexis' house and knocked on the wooden door and sighed waiting for a response.I knocked again and stood there. I was about to knock again but the door opened slightly and there she stood."Kyle.." Her green eyes glimmered and i observed her face. She had bags under her eyes and a pale looking face.She looked like she had been crying. I j
Kyle's POV"Rise and shine sleepyhead!!!" A tiny voice echoed through my room. I groaned clutching to my pillow and turning the opposite direction.It was silent for a minute. Maybe she left. Then i heard the curtains rails move and like a surprise,a bright ray of sunshine hit my face."No..." I cover my face and sit up straight. "What the hell Em?" I say with a scowl on my face. "Someone's a little off today,what happened last night? Was the party not good?" She looked concerned."No. I don't want to talk about it" i look at her and run my hand through my chestnut brown hair. "If you could tel.....""I just fucking said i didn't want to talk about it. Leave my room Em. I'm not coming down for breakfast" i cut her
Alexis POV"Alexis." He called me and walked to me. "Everyone's ready to leave let's all go together" he smiled and pointed me to Jasmine and Ash and Brian and Andy.I took my hand and slapped him across the face. He was surprised by the action and so was everyone else as they all rushed to us. "What tha hell Al..." Jasmine trued to say but my hand meeting her face shut her up."What is going on here?" Ashton asked me and i just glared at Jasmine and Kyle. "Ask your girlfriend,let's see if she has the least amount of shame to tell you" i directed at Jasmine and i think by now with the expression on both their faces,i Can tell they realized what i meant."Lexi let me explain" Kyle held me but i pushed him off. "The truth is i really don't know what to say,you both left me speechless so i wil
Alexis POVAfter kyle dropped me home,i couldn't help but feel lucky that he loved me so much although most of the time i looked at his blue eyes i could only see her wanted to tell me something but he couldn't.I told kyle about the party invites and Christina being nice,he said it was fake and to be careful but just to be sure he'd go with me.At exactly seven thirty there was a honk outside and i rushed to apply my mascara and lipstick to complete my party look. I took one of my purses and put my phone in it and went towards the black Mercedes waiting for me outside.Kyle greeted me with a kiss and helped me put on my seat belt and stole a kiss from me. " let's go" i said playfully remembering i told Andy and jasmine that I'd meet them there by seven and it was already almo
Alexis POVAs he held my hands into the halls,i could feel my heart beat faster and my hands tremble. "Relax" kyle whispered into my ears thus making me more nervous and he just smirked.When we entered the halls,i could already hear some girls giggle and some whispering something to another girl,"slut" one girl openly said and walked away,"she's sleeping with him" one girl told the other and so on it made me feel bad,but heck kyle Matthews is holding my hand bitch,MINE.We passed Christina and her minions and she glared evilly at me and we passed Andy,he just looked sad and that made my heart sink,I've known Andrew for a very long time and we've never had an argument as big as this my while life.I moved my hand to hold his biceps making him stop and i went on my tip toe and whispered in h
Alexis POVI can't believe i fell for that. I should have known it was a lie. But i still went there anyways. WhyI need to think and there's no better place to think than the beach because of the waters and white sand,it's so peaceful. I felt relaxed just thinking about it.I reached the beach and sat on the ground and i got tempted to lay down;which i did. But i got up thinking about the kiss i had with kyle and ran my hand through my hair and buried my face in my palms"Is that you?" I heard a rather familiar voice say and i raised my head up and saw kyle staring right at me and for that moment i couldn't stop staring. "K...yle" i say looking at himWho am i kidding,i freaking like this boy!!
