" Scarlett get down or we will be late " Maxon yelled from the bottom of the stairs, I quickly grabbed my bag and my history assignment off the bed side table before shoving it into my school bag. I definitely don't want to see Mr Stuart's red eyes this morning for leaving my assignment home. And trust me getting detention on Monday morning will ruin the whole week.
" I'm coming ' I yelled as I picked my sweater up from the bed and tying it around my waist. I pull my sneakers out from under the bed and then I wore it hurriedly. With one look around my tidied room, I left for the stairs locking the door after me. I could see maxon downstairs glaring at me with an annoyed expression. He was shooting daggers out of his eyes. I rolled my eyes at him as he left the house.
" Bye dad " I called out as I left the house too.
" Bye honey.. Be home early " he yelled . " oh what am I kidding, they are gone" ...
SCHOOL.. FIFTEEN MINUTES LATER:::
Okay today has been a total bummer. After missing the bus, Max and I had to run to school earlier. I mean who does that? Us... apparently now we got to school in one piece but the bell will soon ring which will signal the beginning of first period.
" Bye sis " max said as he hurried down the hall towards the silence hall, I guess he has calculus first. I moved to my locker to get my books for today's lesson. I have history, calculus,literature, lunch then P.E. wow, the only class I'm looking forward to on that tablet today is P.E class except if you count lunch but lunch is for everyone..
I closed my locker and rested my back on it, my history and calculus notes in my hands. I closed my eyes.
" Scar!! Down to earth Scarlett!! Scarlett of planet earth! "A voice said, I know that voice anywhere, it was just the voice I was waiting to hear.
" Maxwell where have you been? " I asked as I opened my eyes. Here in front of me is my best friend since I was like baby, Maxwell Ashton Andrews. He was actually my only friend, we have been friends since forever.
" Why do you always forget to tie your shoelace every single time. I wonder how you don't trip " he muttered before bending down before me and then he tied my shoe laces on both legs, his hand grazing my skin here and there.
" Well I had to drive Georgia to school before coming here " he said standing up on his feet and then smiled at me, his dimples showing revealing his beautiful perfect set of white teeth.
He hasn't changed a bit, not that he was supposed to change since I saw him last week saturday when we went to the mall together but he gets more handsome every single day. Messy brown hair, grey eyes and beautiful tanned olive skin. Maxwell's last name was Andrews and he was six feet two inches tall which always made me feel inferior a lot since I was five feet five inches. He always wears black and he has a lot of hoodies. That is where I get all my hoodies from, he is also a striker in the school football team plus he is also one of the most popular kids in the school. But he is my best friend. From the look of things I'm sure you guys already know that I have a huge crush on Maxwell. I mean who wouldn't ?, he was so dreamy and I happen to be lucky as he is single now as he and Ava broke up last summer..
You must be wondering who Ava is. Ava is a cheap slut who has slept with everyone on the basketball team, football team and I can guarantee she would do the same if we had a swimming team. But oddly Max liked her because they have gotten together and broken up like a thousand times now so I think there are inseparable and even if I really hate her, I have to pretend and give her forced smiles because of Max.
I didnt know I was blankly showing my interest in him if not for the cough. I blinked back to reality and then I blushed.
" So are you done checking me out? " He asked me as he smirked, I rolled my eyes.
" Jerk face " I muttered and hit his shoulder
" Don't be too full of yourself. Shut up, I wasn't checking you out. I just happened to notice that you were wearing a yellow shirt and not black today " I said. Lying actually but he was actually wearing a yellow shirt .. I saved myself. Go Scarlett!!
" Well I don't believe you but you sound so convincing so I will let it go. And as for the shirt, I lost a bet so this is my punishment " he said as he walked on.
I like your punishment, it's a hot one. I moved away from my locker and followed him.
" What class do you have first? " I asked him as we walked down the hall leaving the locker room.
" Well I have chemistry first and then calculus which I have with you " he said smiling and I melted then blushed again.
" Shouldn't you be running off to history class now since you know Mr Stuart doesn't like lateness " he said and I frowned.
" I don't want to go alone, oh God I hate Monday mornings " I muttered with a frown
" You hate all school mornings Scar " he said and I smiled. " But to make you smile and lighten your mood, I would walk you to your history class " he said and I beamed with happiness.
" Really? "I asked almost jumping up but then I composed myself. Maxwell burst into laughter.
" Really?. " I said in a more cool voice.
" Now let's go or you will be late for the period and probably get detention. And detention on the first day doesn't really feel good. Bell for first period rings in five minutes " he said as he pulled my hands leading me into the art hall . I looked up at him and smiled, I didn't want to let go of this hand. My best friend who was also my crush...
IN FRONT OF HISTORY CLASS:::::
As we finally got to the front of my history class, he handed me my bag that he had carried for me earlier. I look up at his face with a smile.
" Will you be okay on your own . Mr Edward is pretty tough too " I asked him showing concern.
" Oh Scar, would you rather see me off back to chemistry class? " He asked smiling.
" No I'm just saying " I said pouting.
" Oh so cute. Before I forget scar. Its your turn today " he said and I looked at him quizzically.
" For N*****x night you this idiot! " He said half yelling half smiling.
" Shut up dummy!! " I yelled back but quickly regretted it as people started staring.
" Anyone would think you are an angry girlfriend " he said with a smirk.
" Oh you wish !! " I scoffed and stuck my tongue out at him as I entered my history class. But certainly not before smiling at the thought of me being his girlfriend.
" Miss Evans is my class boring you to sleep? " Mr Stuart asked me for the third time that morning. I kept dozing . I knew watching vampire diaries was a bad idea yesterday night but I still watched it. " No sir, you are not " I said again also for the third time." Then why do you keep falling asleep? " He asked again. Can't he just forget it and keep explaining because people are staring at me . its kind of creepy and weird too." I ... I'm sorry " I said politely . Mr Stuart sighs and motioned to me to take my seat, he was being really nice today because he would have given me detention or sent me out of class. Then he moved back to the center of the class as he continued his explanations again." Stupid dumb history " I muttered to myself as I tried not to fall asleep again, I really wanted to sleep but apparently it wasn't too easy to fall asleep since almost everyone in class was looking at me , as if waiting for me to doze off again so I can get detention.. Nah ah.. Not happen
" Hey sis " Maxon said as he put his tray of food on the table we sit at lunch in school.. when I say we, I mean I and Maxwell .." Oh hi, why are you sitting here today? " I asked him frowning as I picked on my food." Hey Maxy " Maxon said to Maxwell, well its not new. He calls Maxwell Maxy. Well they both have Max in front of their names. At first watching them exchange nicknames felt kind of cliche and I almost thought they were gay partners but later on I just got used to the names." Hey xon" Maxwell said with a smile. I sighed again." So back to my question, why are you sitting at our table instead of yours? " I asked as I put a spoon of salad in my mouth." Dad said not to eat with food in your mouth " he started with a smirk. " Get out " I said and he chuckled putting his hands up in surrender." Okay so guess what! The hot girl goes to our school " he said smiling." You said guess!. plus you sound super disgusting . stop squeaking like a girl " I said." Stop squeaking li
" Thanks " I muttered" Its okay, I wasn't watching where I was going either and the changing room is there " I said pointing ." Should I wait for you because I also have P.E class now " I said fumbling with my hands. " Yes please wait " he said then he walked pass me into the changing room . I didn't realize I was holding my breath the whole time till he left and I exhaled.. God!!!." Oh my God I thought I was going to die! He is so handsome " I whispered . maybe being around him wouldn't be so bad after all...FEW MINUTES LATER::::::" let's go " he said smiling as he came out of the dressing room. He wore sweat pants and a thick shirt revealing his arm muscles.I blinked again." Yummy.. I mean yeah " I said quietly and as if he caught me checking him out, he smirked at me." I didn't get a proper introduction in calculus class today " he said as we walked back into the hallways He remembers" I'm Scarlett " I said smiling as I held my hands out for an handshake." Xavier " he
" Bye honey " dad said as he pecked me on the head. As soon as Maxon closed the door, I smiled..We have the house to ourselves." Isn't it great that we have the the house to ourselves " I asked both dork 1( Maxwell) and dork 2( Maxon)." It isn't exactly to ourselves... " Maxon said as he stood up quietly. I stared at him and I stood up too." Why?. What did you do.. You this idiot " I yelled as Maxon ran upstairs." Why you little rat.. I will kill you.. You are good as dead if I . " I was interrupted by the doorbell. As I moved to check who was there." Dad what did you for.. " I said and stopped as I stared at the blue eye balls staring back at me with the same puzzled look I had on my face.Why the hell do we always meet like this. " What are you. You doing here? " I asked as I kept on staring at him." Hi I'm Crystal " a chirpy tiny voice broke my trance. So I turned to stare at the girl beside him. She had exactly Xavier's eyes just that hers was deeper, you know like this b
The next day, School periods went on so fast that now I was in the third period, literature class, my favourite. I frowned as Mr Henderson started talking about a drama play. Don't get me wrong I love literature but sometimes I love food more. Why can't we just do some class work. I mean I already have history project with Robbie, I have a calculus practical to submit next week and I'm sure Mr Hayward had already paired me with either Xavier or Maxwell. I just want to sleep or better still, eat lunch. When will the fucking bell ring!!!." Miss Evans " Dad had already packed lunch for me, peanut butter sand wish cut in different shapes. So cute!. I mean best dad right?" Miss Evans!! " Mr Henderson yelled and I looked up at him, I know where this is going and I hate it already." Yes? Mr Henderson" I managed to say . trust me I would have looked for pretty lots of excuses to get myself out of this tension but it doesn't help when all eyes were on me. I mean, how am I fucking suppos
" Are you mad at me or something? " Maxwell asked that evening as he burst into my room..Don't be surprised. Yes I haven't spoken to him since Ava sat on his laps. Don't blame me I don't know what to say." Oh fuck!! Jesus! " I yelled then I saw Maxwell.." You scared me , didn't anyone teach you how to knock on doors? " I asked as I rolled my eyes. What the hell was he doing here. I'm sure as hell that I didn't invite him over. I didn't even call him, where is my phone?" Well you left during lunch.. Wait,let me rephrase that,you stomped out on me during lunch,didn't come to calculus class and you told Mr Hayward that you were sick, you were perfectly fine during lunch. I checked in with the nurse and she doesn't even know you. Then you and Maxon basically bailed on me after school. You don't even have a car so you guys either took the bus or walked home and I have been calling your cell since but you aren't picking nor were you replying my texts so here I am " he said frowning as
As I walked into calculus class everyone stopped what they were doing and turned to me abruptly. Wow, thanks for the warm welcome." Miss Evans you are late " Mr Hayward said turning from the board to face me. What do I say? What do I say?." Miss Evans" he called again. Oh I hate my life." I had problems with my tampon " I said. Oh my God kill me on the spot. Did I just say tampons?.. Ahh God." That's a very personal word " he said and I could hear a few of the guys saying gross while the girls smiles at my embarrassment." But you asked what I was doing " I said frowning." Just take your seat Scarlett " he said before turning back to the board." Yes thank you " I said politely before staring at the class, looking for an empty seat.. One that I could disappear into like one that leads to mars or Venus. Anywhere but earth." Scarlett. Have your seat " Mr Hayward said again and I sighed. The only seats empty were three. One beside Maxwell where we usually sat and two by the back
I wake up to the vibrating sound under my pillow. Was dad using the lawn mower again?. I told him not to. Wait, I can't be vibrating due to a lawn mower when my bedroom is upstairs.. It has to be something else. Maybe if I ignore it would go away. I close my eyes and pull the blanket over my head. Grrrrrrr Grrrrrrr." Why does the universe hate me! "I yelled as I pulled my pillow up. Oh it was my phone. I sat up from bed and picked it up, the first thing I saw was the time. 5:30pm, woah I slept far too long.Dad and maxon should be back now. I scroll through the phone, I see thirty five missed calls. Woah.. One from dad, two from maxon, five from one unknown number.. Who?. A lot from Maxwell. I ignore all and go straight to my messages.DadHoney, are you alright?.MaxyScar are you mad at me?.Did I do something? Do you want me to come over?.Are you unwell?.I'm confused You better be confused I'm freaking mad at you. I really should replace the love emoji with poop. I frown and
EPILOGUE#004SIX YEARS LATER" JARED HAYDEN MOORE STOP STRANGLING YOUR BEST FRIEND WITH YOUR HANDS " I yelled at my son as he let Leah go. Leah is Maxwell's daughter... ** wink wink **" But mum we are just playing " Jared says as he whined " Yes we are playing aunt Victoria " Leah said and they both looked at me innocently and I laughed.." Come here you two. You need some sugar " I cooed as I pulled them both into a tight embrace." Mu...m..y..you..ar..re...s.queaz..ing..me " Jared slurred" I'm...d..dying.." Leah said and I laughed as I released them." Oh you two have grown up so much.. You guys are going to protect each other when you both grow up " I muttered pinching their cheeks" Stop it can't you see you are killing them " Xavier said as he sat down on the front porch." Oh shut up. " I glared at him before releasing them" Go and give daddy a kiss " I said and Jared ran off to Xavier and kissed his cheek. " you too Leah " I said and Leah ran to hug Xavier " Oh slow down t

SCARLETT" So what if I told mum that I would die if she doesn't get me a car " Stacey asked me as I loaded the truck with my bags, today is the day.. I'm going to college..Wow!!!!I know rightI'm so fucking happyBut I will miss everyoneIncluding Xavier" I don't think she will still get you a car. I mean you did crash into the flower shop the last time " I said and I carried my photo album, I can't ever forget this, it was filled with pictures of me, dad, everyone including my love... Xavier" It wasn't my fault... Maxwell made me wet " she whined and I stopped and stared at her." I just don't understand you guys. Why were you talking dirty in the car. What if you had died? " I asked her folding my hands.." I'd just have sex with the devil " she said smirking" Seriously you remind me of a female version of Xavier " I said putting the album into a box." Oh I feel wronged " Xavier said as he walked in, his hands in his pocket as he came over to me." Hey babe " he said in my ear
" Do you think its so weird that this is the last day we will ever see this school as students? " I asked Xavier, Stacey and maxwell as we sat on a straight roll . Today was our graduation day, finally, we are out of this butt hole. I stared around to see different people in graduation gowns just like us and also different guidance and parents. As I looked deeply to the front, I could spot my dad and Maxon seated beside Xavier's mum and crystal. I looked back at Xavier and smiled." I definitely don't think its weird, I have wanted to get out of this place since forever " Maxwell said and I laughed. I still remember how we planned to burn down a part of the school on our graduation day for a memorable day but now that I think of it, that was a very stupid idea but don't blame us, we were twelve then." I am happy " Stacey and Xavier both said and I and Max burst into laughter." You guys moved here last summer " I said and kept laughing." Scar last summer was like eight or ten mon
XAVIERI opened my eyes slowly to be greeted by Xavier's baby blue eyes watching me. I smiled and used the cloth to cover my head. " Good morning cupcake " he murmured as he used his hand to remove the cloth.. I was fucking shy, how do I raise my head up and look at him after what happened yesterday." Good morning " I whispered and covered my head again. As the memories of last night came flooding back. I was really bold but where is that boldness now?" Stop covering your head Scar " Xavier said and removed the cloth again and I blushed again and used my hands to cover my face.He stood up a little from the bed and towered above me then kissed my finger one by one till he was kissing the last pinky finger. Then he removed my hands from my face and stared at me. I kept looking at his face too but I wasn't shy anymore, he took away all the shyness. Then he used his left hand to grab my shoulder as he kissed my lips slowly and removes his lips, he kissed me again and again and again
XAVIER" I want you " Scarlett blurted out quickly as she stared into my eyes. I was shocked, yes I wanted her too but was she ready?. I watched her as she inched closer to me on the bed and kissed my lips passionately. Where the hell was the Scarlett I knew. I pulled away from the kiss and switch on the lamp. " Are you okay? " I asked her, rubbing my hands on her thighs reassuringly. She nodded and held the hem of her pajamas. Pulling it over her head which made her hair raise up and fall back down. I stared down at her body. She was wearing a lacy black bra and a matching lacy black thong.My brain was going through a lot of lustful thoughts seeing her like this. I wanted her so much it was unreal. She was incredible. Before I could think, she bent down and kissed me passionately. Then she pulled away then looked at me. I could see nervousness in her eyes and at the same time excitement." Do you want me Xavier? " She asked me . Fuck! Is this some sort of joke or something or what
SCARLETT" Hi guys!! " I yelled as I came out of the house. Its been two weeks since Xavier and I stopped fighting. Those two weeks were like heaven and although he told me why he was scared, he didn't elaborate but its fine. When he is ready to open up, he will.So we decided to go on a road trip. Me, Stacey, Maxwell and Xavier. It turns out my dad and his mum didn't even knew we broke up because none of us said anything to them so we were okay in the parent area. Maxon and Crystal are still dating. I must say the girl is magic. The longest my brother has dated was three days till she came and now this was their third month together. Xavier and I are also in our third month too. Yay" Hey babe. Thought you were never going to come out " Xavier said as he walked up to me, then he pecked my cheek. I blushed." I was thinking of saying that but I changed my mind " I said and gave him a bright smile." Well thank God or I would have changed your mind for you " he said and smirked." And
SCARLETTI open my eyes to the ray of sunlight coming from the open curtains in the room. I sit up swiftly and yawn as I glance around. Where the fuck am I?. Immediately I feel a pang of pain in my head, I quickly put my hand on my head. It feels like I was hit on the head with a bat. I brush my hands through my hair and look down at the covers, I was not wearing my cloth. This is definitely not what I wore yesterday. Wait where was I yesterday?." Shit! " I muttered as I felt another jolt of pain in my head. It was like my head was spinning and my brain was going crazy. Where was I last night?.I stare around and the room looks familiar. Xavier!, I look beside me to see sleepy Xavier, he wasn't wearing a shirt as I could see his bare shirt. Which means what?. Did we?.. Why can't I remember a thing. I quickly look under there covers to see I was wearing my pants and his shirt. Relieve wash through me as we didnt do anything... But why the hell can't I remember anything.I stood up f
XAVIER" Man you are one hell of an idiot " Cole said to me that night at his party." Can you just shut up! " I yelled at him with a glare in my eyes." You couldn't just tell her that you were scared and about the incident that happened two years ago. You had to break her heart and create a scene. " He said again and I punched him hard on the face. I knew I was a coward, he didn't need to tell me. " Fuck off man " I said and Cole just wiped the blood off his lips and smirked." Dude you are hitting me now because you know I'm right. Stop being a dick and go get your girl before you finally lose her. She is also looking real sexy tonight. Anyone would wanna want her including me no offense " he said still smiling as he pointed to someone. Scarlett!. Wait what? Scarlett?What the fuck was she wearing. A red mini gown that hugged all her body curves tightly. It reached her laps just a bit. Hell the dress didn't cover a thing. She was wearing heavy make up and I'm sure Stacey did al
