The Player's Playmate Date night and missing Xander
“Are you sure that you aren’t crazy?” I asked Gavin as I laughed. He was laughing with me. “I am not really sure about that. But I am not kidding. I really did like your drawings back then. I actually liked everything you did. I think it might have been that way because I had a crush on you. But in my defence, you were pretty amazing.” Gavin stated. I laughed at that. Gavin and I were having a good time at our date. He had taken me to a pizza place. He somehow already knew about my obsession with pizza. I was honestly enjoying our time. Gavin was a really sweet guy. And according to what he told me, he had had a crush on me since middle school. I was a bit of a crazy kid back then and I never really followed rules.Gavin was telling me about how he used to stick up for me when people made fun of my drawings when I wasn’t around. To be fair, all I used to draw was stick figures. Art was not something I have ever been good at. In fact, I hated art class. I was more of a musi
The Player's Playmate Movie and the proposal
I entered the room to find it empty. I was about to reach into my back pocket for my phone but I suddenly felt a pair of strong arms grabbing me around my waist. I was pulled back into a muscular chest but before I could shout, a hand covered my mouth.“Shhh! Princess, it’s me!” I heard Xander’s voice whisper in my ear. I quickly pushed his hands away before turning around to find Xander grinning at me. I slapped his chest. “Do you know how scared I was? I was freaking out! Why did you do that?!” I scolded Xander as I glared at him. I kept my eyes locked with his as I took my phone out. “I was just trying to mess with you. I didn’t know that you would think that it was a real thief or something.” Xander relied innocently. I glared at him. “I wasn’t talking about that! You have done that numerous times. I was talking about you just disappearing and then not picking up your phone when I called. You scared me!” I said. “I was waiting for you to come back but then I guess
The Player's Playmate Saying Goodbye to a teacher
“Did you guys hear about it?” Mason questioned in excitement. I frowned at him. Jason was by his side but he didn’t look half as excited as Mason. Xander and Damien, who were standing with me, shook their head at Mason’s question. “Hear about what?” I asked. Jason looked down at the floor as Mason’s grin grew bigger. I was a little scared to hear what Mason had to say. There weren't a whole lot of things that the twins ever had different opinions about. “Mrs Reyes, the art teacher, she is leaving town for good!” Mason exclaimed before he started doing his victory dance. People in the hallway stared at Mason as if he was crazy. I passed them a glare and they soon looked away. Mason might look like a monkey when he did his victory dance but as his friend, I don’t want people staring at him or making fun of him. That’s our job. “But why is Jason so gloomy about it? I thought that you both hated her.” Damien asked as he looked at Jason. It was true. The twins hated the ar
The Player's Playmate Hide & seek and the Savior
Mrs Reyes saw the twins laughing at her.“Mason! Jason! Detention!” Mrs Reyes yelled at the top of her lungs. I laughed as I ran away with Damien and Xander. We ran down the hallway like maniacs as we laughed at what we just witnessed. I guessed the twins wanted to get a last detention from Mrs Reyes before she left the town but that didn’t mean that I wanted to be stuck in detention again. We suddenly heard Mrs Krampe, the chemistry teacher’s voice yelling at us from behind us. “Stop! Why are you all running away like that? Turn around!” She called out. We froze in our place, still not facing her. “Turn around!” She said as her voice neared. Crap!If she caught us, she will soon realise that we witnessed the prank on Mrs Reyes. That will surely get us into trouble. Our friendship with the twins wasn’t really a secret so it won’t take them long to come to the conclusion that we helped the twins. I glanced at Damien and Xander with a panicked look on my face. Mrs Kra
The Player's Playmate Payback and reputations
“How did you two get out?” Damien asked me, making my cheeks warm up at the memory. “That is not important. The important thing is that we got out. So, what are they going to do?” I said, changing the topic. I was in the car with Xander, heading home after our escape. Damien had called me to inform me that he wasn’t able to get out. He was just about to get out of the school when Mrs Krampe caught him. Poor fellow…“They were going to take the three of us to the principal’s office but then Mrs Reyes stepped in and said that she doesn’t want that. Apparently, she was a little amused that the twins tried something to make her remember them forever.” Damien told us. “So, it’s just detention?” Xander asked. The phone was on speaker so that Xander could talk too while he drove us home. “Detention for a week for the twins and just today for me since I warned Mrs Reyes about the prank. My only crime according to them is running in the hallways.” Damien answered. “Well, that
The Player's Playmate Drunk Xander and Reasons
“Ellie, why do I love you?” Xander questioned as he started at the ceiling of my room while lying on my bed. I picked up my phone and lied down next to him on my bed. “Because I am awesome.” I shrugged. He turned his face and looked at me while I stared at my phone’s screen. I haven’t gotten any texts from Gavin and I didn’t even see him much in school after our date. It was like he was avoiding me. “Stop staring like a creep, Xan!” I snapped at him without turning to him as he continued to stare at me silently. “No, I don’t love you because you are awesome. That is Mason’s reason for loving you. What is my reason?” Xander replied. I turned my head to look at him. He was frowning at me. “Is it because I am pretty?” I guessed as I smirked at him. He scowled at that and shook his head. “That’s Damien’s reason.” he grumbled. I laughed as he pouted and glared at the ceiling in anger. Xander was drunk. And he was a cute drunk. It was Friday night, so the boys and I had gon
The Player's Playmate Kara's Insecurities
“Oh my god! I am dying! Ellie, save me!” Xander exclaimed as he walked into the kitchen where I was just putting the waffles on the plates. He looked really tired as he held his head in his hands as if it was just about to explode. This is usually what happens every time Xander wakes up after drinking more than he should. “No need to yell, drama queen. The pills are where they are supposed to be. Just take those and I have made waffles for breakfast. Freshen up fast or else I’ll eat them all.” I told him as I took the plates and placed them on the table. Xander took the pills and went to the washroom to freshen up when I heard the doorbell. I ran to the door to find the guys and Kara standing on the other side with huge grins on their faces. I welcomed them all inside. Mason sniffed the air like a dog before his eyes grew wide.“Did you make waffles for breakfast?” Mason yelled in excitement. I chuckled at him before nodding my head. “Ellie, I love you!” Mason said as he w
The Player's Playmate Truth revealed
“Hey, Gavin.” I greeted him as I took a seat next to him at the bleachers. The boys had their football practice and since I had nothing better to do, I decided to go to the library to wait for their practice to end. The librarian was leaving early and so she had to lock the doors and she asked me to leave. That is why I was here at the fields watching the guys as they practiced.When I saw Gavin asking the coach for a break and coming towards the bleachers, I decided that I should go and talk to him. I wanted to ask him what happened after our date, almost a week ago. I was still hoping that he would call me or text me but he didn't do so during the weekends. I believed that I deserved an explanation for all that.“Hey, Ellie. What are you doing here?” he said as he turned to me. He looked a bit scared as if I was about to punch him in the face. “I am waiting for the guys to finish their practice. Xander is my ride home.” I replied with a shrug. Gavin nodded his head as h

The Player's Playmate Epilogue
“Did he really bake all those cupcakes for you?” Kara asked with a giggle. I nodded my head with a smile. “That is why I always told you to date him, honey.” My mother commented. I rolled my eyes at her. “When you found out about what happened, you were about to go over to his house and kill him! You didn’t even let him come inside the house when he came to apologize to me!” I reminded my mother. After my conversation with Xander, he did what he said he would do. He crossed every limit when it came to seeking forgiveness. He learnt how to bake cakes and cupcakes and I got a batch of the freshly baked goods almost daily. He even apologized to my parents.Xander was always around in school but he still kept his distance. He apologized to Damien and Liam too for breaking their trust.After a couple weeks of him always smiling at me through the hallways and doing his best, I decided that he and I have suffered enough by staying away. I forgave him. Completely.“That was be
The Player's Playmate Love Conquers All
“I don’t want to go back to the way we were before, Ellie.” Xander told me, making me frown. What the hell is he talking about?“What do you mean by that, Xan? Don’t you want to be my friend anymore?” I asked him. Xander smiled as he shook his head. “No, Ellie. Now that I know how amazing it is to be your boyfriend, I don’t think that I can be just friends with you. You’re just too special and I can’t let you go.” Xander told me in a sincere voice. I stopped breathing and my eyes turned wide. I didn’t know what to say now. “H-how? W-Why?” I stuttered, not knowing what I wanted to ask or say. Xander chuckled as he looked at my flustered state. “Ellie, I am not going to lie to you anymore. I am not going to hide anything either. I’ll tell you the truth. I did ask you out because I was afraid of losing you to Ace. But I realised that I really do love you. And I have loved you for as long as I could remember.” Xander told me. I knew that if he continued talking, I was
The Player's Playmate Back to School
“I am fine, Damien!” I huffed. I have been saying the same sentence on a repeat for the past fifteen minutes, ever since he picked me up for school. But Damien is still annoying me. And so is Liam. And Mason. And Jason. “Are you sure?” Liam asked me as he looked at my face as if I was going to break down again. I rolled my eyes as I decided to ignore them all. After I told my mom and dad about everything, I had to practically beg my mom to not just go over to Xander’s house and break his face and my dad to not kill Xander. After convincing my parents, my mom made me skip school the next day and she and I went for a relaxing spa day. Later that night, my parents took me to watch a movie at the theatre.During the weekends, Damien, Liam, Kara and the twins slept over at my house. We talked about random things, ate loads of junk food, watched movies and much to Mason’s disappointment, did our homework. Today was Monday. And even though my mom offered to take me to a fair
The Player's Playmate Breaking down
I was done crying. My nose and eyes were red and my eyes were swollen and were hurting. But I didn’t feel like a mess. I felt a little better even though the pain of the heartbreak was still there. The day wasn’t over yet but my crying apparently was. I had no more tears left in me. As I drank some water, I realised how dehydrated I actually was feeling. But I was a little better… The pain was still unbearable and Xander’s voice still in my head on repeat as he confessed that it was all a lie but there was another voice there. This was my own voice which was telling me that I was Eleanor Aliana Ambrosia and no one can break me. I was stronger than titanium!My heart might have been broken but I wouldn’t let myself be broken completely. I was going to stay strong. After all, I was still in high school. I had a lot to live for. If not love, I still had to live to make my parents proud of me. I still had to do so much!I had to win a Nobel prize too!A knock on the door
The Player's Playmate Not hurt or Angry, just Numb
“I only asked Ellie out because I saw how Ace was going to take her away. I told her lies to convince her that I liked her so that she would leave him and come back to me. My plan was to break up with her after Ace was out of the picture and the offer for her to go to the music school was no longer available.” Xander said in a strong voice. I heard multiple gasps beside me but I was too shocked to say something or give a reaction as Xander visibly froze. It was as if he was afraid to turn around.“See. He didn’t want you after all.” I heard Sarah’s smug voice say but I couldn’t reply to her either. Xander turned around and his eyes met mine.I could see the shock and guilt in his eyes but I was too shocked to say or do anything.“Ellie…” Xander whispered as he looked at me with wide eyes. I held my tears and sob in as I looked at him but I could still hear his words on a repeat in my head which made a tear fall from my eye and roll down my cheek. He lied to me… It was al
The Player's Playmate Secret's Out
Xander’s POV“I know your little secret, Xander Theodore King.” I heard someone saying just as I came out of the class to make my way to Ellie’s locker. I turned to find Gavin, one of the guys from the football team standing right next to the door of the class. “Big deal, Gav! The whole school knows my whole name. It’s not a secret.” I said as I rolled my eyes. I turned around and started walking to Ellie’s locker. Today was our one month anniversary and I was going to do everything in my power to make sure that she was happy today. I had already planned our date for after the school got over.Ellie and I have been going strong even after Ellie found out that I was hiding something from her. The twins tried to bring it up and make me confess everything to her but it looked like she didn’t want to know. I knew that she wanted me to tell her everything on my own but I was a coward. I wasn’t going to tell her the truth. Besides, I love her now. I feel exactly wha
The Player's Playmate The Starting of the End
“Hey, Ellie!” I heard someone say just as I got out of the house. I looked up to find Ace standing a few feet away. My eyes grew wide. Crap! Did he hear about me and Xander being a couple?Ace and I haven’t talked after the day at the restaurant more than a month ago when I told him about how I didn’t feel like we could be something other than friends. I have no idea where he has been since then. It wasn’t like I didn’t care. I was just giving him some space. I didn’t want to rub it in his face. I just wanted him to take his time and get over it all. “Hey, Ace.” I said as I smiled nervously. My eyes went to Xander’s house to see that he wasn’t out yet. But he could come out of his house any second. Xander was supposed to be my ride to school like always and I knew he was about to leave his house now. I was just nervous to see his reaction on seeing Ace here at this time.Xander will surely get mad!“I know that you have to go to school but I just wanted to talk to yo
The Player's Playmate Hot and Sweet
“A frog can sing better than you, Mace!” Jason said with an eye roll making me laugh. Mason scoffed as he hit the back of his twin’s head. “I seriously sang better than every singer out there!” Mason said in a proud tone, making us all laugh. He pouted like a child as we all continued to laugh. Me, the twins, Damien and Xander were currently sitting in my living room, relaxing after the tiring day at school. Kara was at her house and Liam had to help his little brother with some stuff and so he wasn’t here either. I was sitting between Damien and Xander on the carpeted floor while the twins were sitting directly in front of us on the floor as well.“Mace, please stop with your jokes! You are going to make me cry because of laughing so hard!” Xander said as he tried to stop himself from laughing. “At least I am not the guy who is keeping a potentially awesome singer from becoming a famous celebrity!” Mason remarked making me furrow my eyebrows at him in confusion. Wha
The Player's Playmate Searching for trust and truth
“Jace, do you believe in keeping secrets?” I asked as Jace and waited in the line for our turn. Jason instantly stiffened and gulped while I acted nonchalant as I stared at the girl who was currently giving her order. We were all at the fast food restaurant. After watching a movie, we were all tired so we decided to eat something. Kara and Liam were currently doing some shopping since Kara wanted to and so I decided to just question the twins now.When we all entered the shop, I told Damien to keep Xander and Mason distracted while I went to order for us all with Jason.Yes, I am cornering the one I think will be easier to break. And no, I am not ashamed in the least!“I don’t.” Jason answered, keeping it short. I nodded my head at that. I huffed as I saw the girl starting to flirt with the guy taking her order. Can’t she just drop her number for the guy and leave?“Don’t you think that that girl is taking forever? I mean, can’t she just flirt with the guy after his shi
