last update Last Updated: 2021-11-02 22:55:47

Just me and Tybalt?

My heart then began to race, sweat trailing down my back before wiping off the liquid of my hand to my shirt. Gosh, what do I do?

"It's fine, you can do that, we can just watch a movie here. No worries, we'll tell your mom where you two were off to, so do not think about it too much." Romeo smirks, leaning his head back to the wall with his eyes on the big TV screen.

"Thanks guys," I hear Tybalt mumble as my eyes shot right at him big and wide, obviously wishing for him to get the message and change his mind and stay here.

But Tybalt opens the front door and signalled me to get outside and he follows after. As much as I wanted to escape and wish for this not to happen, Tybalt deserves a proper answer from me.

    "Mom, can I go to the Ellis'?"I had been thinking about it since the first second that my bottom meets with the hard wood am sitting on right now. Mom is surprised, of course she will be, she does not have any idea what happened yesterday with Tybalt and I. As she stands up to put the dishes on the sink, I follow behind her and wait for her response."Mom.. I'm just worried about Tybalt. He could be sick and I really want to go check on him. After all, it was my fault..""Why would he be sick, honey?" mom asked."Well..""Oh," mom exclaims while gesturing her pointer finger up and turning around to look at me. "Was it because of yesterday? You were supposed to meet with him, right? But why would he be sick? Did something happen?"I shut my mouth, lips are forming a thin and straight line across my face as my mother awaits for my answer. "Tybalt.. he had been under the rai

    "Come on, let's get you changed.."This man over here has just finished his bowl of porridge, had already taken his medication, but yet to wipe off his sweat and change his dampened clothes. Tybalt is laid across his bed with eyes closed and the blanket covering his entire body."Get up, Ellis!""No.. leave me be..""Tybalt--""For Pete's sake, Lorien--"He rolls over to the other side, pulling me in the process as my hand was holding onto the blanket for I was trying to get it off of him. Tybalt is sick and weak, but that does not really change the fact that he was a man and I, a girl. My small body atop of his, pressing down on him, while my face is surely just three inches away from his.The beating of my heart has increased its speed, while our eyes are locked and nobody dares to break the contact. As if doing so, is so wrong. But he did, Tybalt did."Alright, alright!" He shouts, sitting up on

    "Mom, I'm off!" Tuesday today, school. Mama had to shake me up awake until I get out of my bed. Regarding Tybalt, he has recovered from his cold now, glad he did after going back and forth his place even over the weekends. "Good luck on school today! Don't stay out too late!" "Yes, mommy!" my hand wraps around the door knob and pull it open, revealing a tall and handsome Harry Ellis standing in front of me. The man hasn't wasted any second to engulf me into his warm embrace. "May I know, what are you doing here?" I tried standing on in my toes to see over his shoulder and check if he came with anybody, but Harry was tall enough to block it, his arms then released me from the hug. "Picking you up," was the only he said to me with a smile on his beautiful face. I raise a brow. "You know you don't need to do that, do you?" Harry shrugs, "Well yeah.. I

    Just got home from school, and it is currently six in the evening. Tybalt has been sending me texts, reminding me of the date that we have today! How could I ever forget if the texts keep coming non-stop, not to mention he's practically begged me to reply just to assure him that I do remember? Yeah.. cute, he is scared that I might stood him up again and step on his feelings. However, he could have been a little more considerate of me, yeah? Can he imagine how hard it was for me to focus in class because my phone's been vibrating? Oh, I better give him a good scolding when I see him.Out from the shower, my hand pulls the cabinet door open as it reveal to me the dresses my mother bought me, but not even one of them I wore. Mom is going to be incredibly proud and happy once she sees me going out for a date in a dress. Hold on.. why didn't I wear any dress when I was with Milo?

    It is a beautiful Sunday morning. I had done all of my chores and everything that relates to school, now it is time for me to do whatever the heck I wanna do! But just as my back laid down on the mattress, this phone of mine started to ring."Who's this?""Guess."I groan. "What do you want, mister? I'm busy for today.""Do you not have my phone number saved?"A little laugh escaped my lips. I did not know the little things could anger Tybalt. "Yes, I do have it saved. I just did not check who was calling.""Great, because if that was not the case, I would come up to your room and save it myself."I smirk. "Go ahead and try it.""Well actually, I'm just right downstairs."Wait what? That made me sit up from my bed and run down to the living room to check. I only wish he was lying, bec

    The third bell rings, the students hurriedly exited the room to take their lunches. As for me, Harry texted me twenty minutes early to say that he wanted us to have lunch together and so I am waiting for him in here with Evette. Speaking of which, my phone vibrates and I pull it out from my pocket; turns out it is a message from Tybalt, reminding me of the fact that he will pick me up from school today so I should not go anywhere. A little smile crept on my face and locked it, from the outside of the room, there stands my twin."You hungry?" he asks and meets Evette in the eye. "Hey! Wanna have lunch with us?""Of course, I'd love to."Harry does not really like the cafeteria food, and so here we are at the nearest restaurant by the school. With Evette sitting in front of me, Harry runs into the line after asking what food do we want to have. Rummaging through my bag to find my wallet, Evette surprised me with her question;"Hey, that's

There is a lot going on my mind right now, but today I just want to shut it all off and live for a moment.. I deserve this. We all do.But time passes by so fast, and my watch says it is already 8:45. The sun feels good on my skin, I would love to keep on going, but my stomach is growling like a hungry dragon. And so I went to the nearest coffee shop in the neighborhood, deciding to have my breakfast there before heading back home."One macchiato and giant waffle," the lady gives me a final smile as I turn against her and quickly sat when I found a vacant table. There really is nothing more greater for breakfast than coffee! The phone from my pocket then starts to vibrate, I knew it is Tybalt but his messages are honestly something that I always look forward to. It really brightens up my mood."Ex

    It has been two weeks since the last time Tybalt and I have seen each other. Although he's sending me texts, calling me.. none of those can ever compare if I see him. I really miss him. He even shows up to my dreams sometimes at night, but the situation there is not much any different than what we have now in reality— Tybalt and I cannot be together. The dreams would always end in him, walking away from me. It scares me so much.. as much as I don't want to think about it, but what if Tybalt really chooses to leave me? I am aware of how much difficult and hard this is, not just for me but for the both of us. Thanks to these people chasing me around, we cannot meet in secret. Plus, I always had to call Milo whenever I leave my home, because that's what Tybalt told me. I wonder if Milo is irritated with me, for always dragging him along. Also, the articles that were going around the internet about me and Milo were all taken down. It is all thanks to the power of their father. I am gratef

    First thing I saw this morning was a text message from Lorien— my fianceé. I could not help but feel giddy and excited inside. It had been such a while since she had sent me a text. Hi Mi. I know it is still too early and you're sleeping, but could you drive me to school today? I'm sorry to ask you but I do not feel safe outside. A bunch of reporters had camped outside of my house.My eyes widen in shock. These people really... I never imagined them doing this to Lorien. This could be because of me. If only my father hadn't broadcasted to the world my proposal to her that night, this wouldn't happen. Lorien could still live the same way her life had always been. I feel guilty. And I truly hate the fact that I am happy that she's asking for my help.. she cannot be seen in the public with Tybalt, or else that will cause a huge scene. Lorien could get in trouble if they get caught meeting in secret. This is why she is turning to me.. I don't hate it. It makes me happy but hey, I am just

    "Hello?" It is four-twenty in the morning. I decided to call my 'fiancé' to ask for his help. If his idea ever works, then I would be free from this arrangement as early as possible. My dad is really wrong for wanting to control my life and do everything in his way. Milo is on the other end, I am not surprised to know that he is still awake at this hour. "Can you help me?" "Anything, babe. What is it?" "Let's end this arrangement, Mi. I want to go back to your brother.. please.." There was silence, for a moment I thought he had ended the call but no. I could hear him breathing. That must have hurt him.. he just confessed that he still has feelings for me and here I am, begging him to help me get back in the arms of another man — his brother. "Tybalt had requested for you to stay as my fianceé, didn't he?" That is right.. I nearly forgot about what Tybalt has asked of me. I really don't get it though, why do I have to stay as his brother's fiancé while he finds for a way to break

    The door clicks behind me as I get my shoes off, finding my mother seated on the sofa. My dry throat craves for water, Mom notices me walking around the room. "You're back a little late, honey. Where have you been?" "Oh.. just stopped by, you know, somewhere. I wanted to take some air." My feet run to the stairs but mother stopped me by asking a question. "Have you heard from your teacher?" "How you called into my school to say you're dropping me out?""Lorien..""Mother, do you realize what you guys are doing? You are basically taking away my life. Is this what you think is the best for me?" "I've tried talking it out with your father, sweetheart, but he just never listens.. you know how he is.." "Mom, couldn't you try harder? Please.. I don't want to get to the point where I'm gonna think it was best when he wasn't here." ***The sound of my alarm woke me up, only to get reminded of the fact that I am now a drop out and will soon begin the life of a homeschooled student.

    "Daniel, Mr. Seo is asking for you.""Yeah.. thanks." It is not even past lunch yet, and the teacher is already wanting to see me. I don't think that I have done something against the classroom or school rules though, why is Mr. Seo finding for me? "Hey," The boy beside me throws an arm over my shoulders. "are you okay? You've been wearing that expression for days. Is this because of your engagement with Milo?" "Shush! Don't talk about that, Harry! Can't you see it's a very sensitive topic?" I cannot give them the same energy back, and it has been days, what Harry said was true. For one, am truly bothered with my engagement with Milo; and two, Tybalt has not been replying to me nor answering any of my calls. I really want to talk to him.. badly want to see him.. but it seems as though he does not care about this too much.

    "Lorien, I ask you to marry me." Milo kneels to the ground, right hand digging into his pocket and then pulled out a diamond ring. My head turned up once more but Tybalt has already gone, my eyes laid down on my parents, father was mouthing for me to say yes and accept Milo's proposal. Flashes of what I think are hundred cameras surround the both of us, and this no doubt, is being aired live on TV. Milo remains on that position with hopeful eyes, the words he told me earlier plays like a broken record and I just cannot humiliate him here. People already have been hating me for dating him in secret, I cannot add up more to that. "Are you getting this?" "Is the camera rolling?" "We're live, aren't we?" My shaking right hand comes forward, as Milo's face lights up with glee and carefully slides the ring down my finger. His strong arms pulled me into his chest as the crowd begins to roar. This choice was mine. I should not blame anybody for this. ***"Here you are." Milo breaks the

    "What color do you think would go with your dress?" mother asks, showing me two shades of lipstick with a smile across her face. Today, I am getting ready for my and Milo's engagement party. Tybalt has been avoiding since the announcement, calling him on his cell never worked once. I can understand though. If I learned that my boyfriend is going to get engaged to another girl, I would be acting the same as him. However, it is just really sad how he tries his best to reject me. "Honey.. I know it's hard. But I need you to bear with this for a little longer." Mom rests her warm hand over my shoulder while I relieve a sigh. "Milo doesn't want to do this either, does he? I'm pretty sure he'll call this off in an instant." "I don't know, mom.." My feet pace around the room, fingernails in between my teeth before running a hand through my hair. "Tybalt hasn't been answering any of my calls. It's making my anxiety worse, and Milo... he doesn't seem to be against of this engagement.""What

    The loud banging on my bedroom's door woke me up. I checked the time on the clock, 6:45 in the morning. "I told you we'll be leaving early today!" My father yells from the other side. The day has not even started, and yet my mood is sour already. "I want to see you downstairs in ten minutes!" The knocking disappears along with his heavy footsteps. Throwing a towel over my shoulder, I get inside the shower and wore whatever I got from the cabinet. Milo and I already knew each other, what's the point of dressing up? He'll be okay if I wear jeans and a shirt. "Oh Lorien...— what are you wearing!?" my mother exclaims, looking over her shoulder and pulls me back into my room. "You can't wear this! You'll be meeting—""Don't we already know each other? Milo won't be bothered." "Your dad is not going to let you leave like this! Please, do not anger him any more. He's already like this because he knows for a fact that you're against of this engagement." I raise a brow. "Oh, am I? Gosh.. I

    "Hey!" Harry pops in front of me without warning, making me jump as he throws a shoulder on me. "What do you say, we stop and grab a bite on the way home?" "Is there never a time that you are not hungry, Harold?" "Yes, apparently, Miss Gilbert. Now why don't we go, hm? My stomach is grumbling." The vibration from my pocket is not stopping. Pulling out my cell, it is a message from Milo. He has been sending me texts and even started calling me, whatever his reason is, I do not wish to hear. Everything between us has already been settled. Does he not have Odette? Why is he being like this all of a sudden? "Lorien?" "Yeah?" Harry is holding out the car door, I realize he was waiting for me to hop in. "You coming?""May... I'll pass today, guys."Evette's head pops out through the window. "Is something wrong? Are you okay?" I nodded. "Yeah! I'm fine! There's just... My mom asked me to go to the supermarket for her today. We're out of tissue paper. I'm really sorry." "Okay then, be
