“Well, make yourself familiar with the place then. You’ve been living here for a little over a month according to my story.” I gave him a look.
“I was familiar with the place before we got here.” He replied.
I raised an eyebrow in question.
“I had Lucas pull up the layout of your house for me to study.” He shrugged. “I was supposed to know the place well since I have apparently been here for a month.” He smirked at me.
“You knew the place well by just looking at the layouts?” I asked.
“I used to go on field missions almost everyday. I am used to getting to know places by studying their layou

“I don’t think I’ve laughed so much in a while now.” Aunt Celine commented as she got up. “But it’s getting late now so we should all head to bed.” She sighed. “You must be tired from all the travelling too. I have already prepared your usual bedroom.” I said as I got up with her. “Thank you, Mia.” She hugged me. “No problem, Aunt Celine.” I smiled at her as we pulled away. “Now, I know that after the whole day that you didn’t get to be alone, the two of you might be excited.” She started, giving us a look. “But please remember that I’ll be just down the hall.” She told us. Oh god no! There is literally zero excitement here!

“I hate you!” I grunted as I continued doing push-ups as sweat trickled down the side of my face. “You do know that I’m still your boss, right?” Archer chuckled as he too continued doing push-ups next to me. I scoffed as I continued my workout, trying to ignore the hot shirtless yet annoying guy next to me. This is so not fair! Why does God always pair ego and hotness together? This is certainly not fair! “This was supposed to be my fun-filled vacation!” I huffed as I rolled over on the floor on my back, breathing heavily due to the heavy exercises I’ve been doing for the past hour. This is ridiculous!&n

“We are just going to show our faces, let people know that I’m still alive and then go back home.” I told myself as I walked to my old friend, Tommy’s house with Archer by my side.I can already feel that something bad is about to happen here… But I had to do this.I can do this!The party in the house was in full swing with loud music disturbing the neighbours and drunk people all around. I plastered my usual bitchy smirk on my face as I saw a few familiar faces. “Mia! You came!” Nina exclaimed as she ran to me with Octavia. Here we go…“I had to!” I replied as they both hugged me and blew kisses and I did the same. This is the cliché of being fake!They then turned to Archer. “You brought the handsome devil with you!” Octavia said to me while she eyed Archer with a sly smile on her face as she bit her lip seductively. Sis, I think he’s been trained to ignore better women. He’s not going to be swayed by your pathetic attempt!“He’s going to take all the attention away from Tom

I frowned when I saw the lights of the house were still on as Archer parked the car in the front.What’s going on?My aunt should be fast asleep by now. I even asked her to not keep the lights on as it would be a tedious job for me to switch them off when I’m tired.“Why are the lights on?” Archer asked. “Did you leave them on?” He turned to me.“No.” I answered, not looking at him. “But something’s not right.” I whispered as I unbuckled my seat belt.The whole ride back home, neither of us spoke a single word. It was too awkward and the tension in the car was almost tangible.It was weird!

“Take care! And call me when you get there!” I said as I pulled away from the hug.“I will. You take care of yourself!” Aunt Celine told me. She turned to Archer. “Please take care of her for me.” She requested.“I will, ma’am. I promise.” He replied as he wrapped an arm around my shoulders.Dear lord!Why does this feel more than it really is?And why the heck did my stomach just do a somersault?!“I am trusting you with my eldest child, son!” Aunt Celine told him jokingly.Oh god!

“It was so bad not having you here, Mia!” Thea sighed as she took another bite of the chocolate mousse.Aww!“We need you here!” Tony added as he gave me a cute puppy-eyed look.Double aww!“You are vital for our survival here!” Lucas reported seriously, looking straight into my eyes.Triple aww!“I missed you too, Mia.” Oliver added.Quadruple aww!Archer and I were back at the headquarters since I didn’t have any reason to stay at my house any longer after I had that chat with

“You know, you should take a little break now.” Tony’s voice broke me out of my furious-typing-while-glaring-at-the-screen session.“I’m good. I don’t need a break.” I replied, sending him a curt smile for good measures.“Mia, seriously, you’ve been working for too long now!” He sighed.I sighed as I stood up from my seat and turned to him.He was my friend and he was actually concerned so I knew that I shouldn’t be rude to him.“I really appreciate the concern, T, but I’m fine.” I genuinely smiled at him.“Then go and eat your breakfast and lunch now!” He

“It was such a nice date!” Marcus smiled as we walked in the mansion. “Did you enjoy yourself?” He asked me as we neared the kitchen.Is he kidding me?!He can’t seriously be asking me that!“I did.” I smiled forcefully back at him.Marcus didn’t seem to notice how I had been smiling forcefully at him all night. He just assumed I was actually happy.And I thought that no one could be more naïve than Lucas!As we entered the kitchen, my eyes met Archer’s straight away.He was standing in the corner with Lucas. By the looks on their faces, it seemed

I didn’t want this to be a tri

Unedited“Let’s go to the mall or something!” A girl whose name I didn’t even remember said as we walked down the hall.I don’t even wanna see the face of the one who suggested that!“Not in the mood.” I rolled my eyes. “I just shopped with my mom yesterday since it was a Sunday and she was free.” I explained.My mother was being more involved in my life. And when she appeared in my dorm room for a surprise visit and saw me moping over Archer’s pictures, she threatened to start living in my dorm with me if I didn’t let her take me shopping to make me feel better.I can’t believe it but it actually did work… I actually felt a tad bit better&he

Unedited“May I have this dance with you, dear?” A voice asked from behind me.Ugh! No!I huffed in annoyance, turning around to face the person but froze when I realised who it actually was who asked me for a dance.It was Ashton Knight…It was Archer’s father.The same man who hated me with everything he had.Is he here to say, ‘I told you so’? Because if so, I don’t wanna hear it.I schooled my expressions and smiled for anyone who might’ve been looking at us.

UneditedI looked good.I looked gorgeous!I couldn’t even believe how beautiful the dress that I was wearing looked on me.And that’s coming from a narcissistic bitch like myself!It was a baby-pink coloured floor-length ball gown that looked like a wedding dress. It was simple with delicate work on the torso, its spaghetti straps and V-neck highlighted my collar bones and the thigh-high slit that showed my leg when I walked made it possible for people to see my beautifully matching baby-pink pencil-heels.All in all, I loved it!“You look like a princess.” Lucas gushed, wiping his tears off of

He’s not going to understand me.” I huffed as I packed my jeans in the suitcase.I have to do this and I’m going to do this. No matter what.“Just think about it, will ya?” Lucas pouted at me from where he was sitting on my bed.Why are they taking his side?!I thought that their presence in

“This looks awesome!” Thea commented as she looked at the photographs.“I know, right?” I grinned at her.I’m so happy that she’s okay with this!Thea was my only girl-best-friend and I didn’t want to be at odds with her for something as simple as this.“You’re gonna have so much fun there, Mia! I’m actually quite jealous of you now!” Tony voiced his thoughts.Exactly! I’m planning on having so much fun that I will always remember it.This is going to be a major part of my life and I’m going to make it something I would love to look back at when I’m older.

“I know that, mom.” I sighed, running a hand through my hair.“I’m just saying that it’ll be good for you, Mia. Getting used to the place can actually help you be comfortable with your surroundings and instead of trying to adjust like the others you’ll be able to focus on crushing your competition when the time comes.” My mother, Catherine Queen, spoke through the phone.Wait… What the hell?!“Mom, you’re talking about college not about business here.” I reminded her.And people wonder why I am so messed up…It was my lunch break and I was talking to my mother on my phone.
