The Player's Playmate Trouble with exploding test tubes
“Ms Ambrosia, I told you that you should leave these boys and find better friends.” Principal Hughes told me. I sighed. I really don’t want to hear this… “Sir, with all due respect, Damien is an amazing friend. And Xander isn’t any less. In fact all the friends I have are amazing. I wouldn’t want to leave them for anything in the world.” I told him in a kind tone. “Then why do they always end up coming to my office?” Principal Hughes asked me with a raised eyebrow as if he was challenging me. Liam was so lucky to have been able to avoid this!“Sir, the qualities that make a person a good friend aren’t their scholastic achievements or how disciplined they are. The qualities of a good friend are that the person is trust-worthy and reliable. And I am pretty sure that my friends are pretty trust-worthy and reliable. They have never let me down.” I told him. “They might be reliable and trust-worthy for you but they sure aren’t the best choice, Eleanor. You are a very brig
The Player's Playmate Can't let her go
Xander’s POVA smile graced my lips as Ellie laughed at a joke Mason cracked. She was so cute and yet so elegantly beautiful. Ellie was nowhere near fake.She was real.And she was awesome.It all might have started as my obsession of trying to keep her by my side and away from Ace but now it was turning into something bigger and something much better. “Xander, why aren’t you eating your food?” Ellie asked, bringing me out of the trance. I shook my head and looked down at my untouched food. “The pasta isn’t bad. It’s actually good today.” Liam told me. I nodded as I took a bite. The food was surprisingly good for cafeteria food. “What happened, Xan? Why aren’t you saying something today?” Ellie asked me. I turned to see concern in her beautiful green eyes. “I was just thinking.” I told her with a smile. She frowned at that. She looked so damn adorable with the frown. Snap out of it, Xander!I was never one to notice someone so closely. The only time I not
The Player's Playmate Confessions of Guilt
“Xander? Are you okay?” I asked when I opened the door of the house at one in the morning to find him leaning against the wall next to the door. What is he doing here at this time?Xander’s usually well styled black hair looked messier than usual and his grey eyes looked a little darker. He was not able to stand straight on his own and stumbled as he tried to walk up to the door. Is he drunk?After spending the whole day with me, Mason and Jason were calling Xander continuously so he had to leave. He left about four to five hours ago.I thought that he would just sleep over at the twins' house but I guess he wanted to come back.“Ellie! I am here! I am sorry for being late!” Xander said, talking a little too loud in the silent night. He is drunk!I frowned as I helped him inside the house. I closed the door after him and took him to the kitchen.“Why are you drunk, Xan?” I asked him as I made him sit on a chair and fetched a bottle of water for him. He took the bott

“Ellie! My head hurts like hell! Save me! I am dying!” Xander exclaimed as he came to the kitchen. I shook my head at him as a smile formed on my face. He’s so dramatic!“You know where the medicines are. Go and freshen up. Damien will be here soon.” I told him as I continued making the waffles. Xander nodded his head with a pout on his lips. He took the pills for the headache and went out of the kitchen. I prepared breakfast for the three of us in peace while he freshened up.Last night, after Xander passed out, I called and told everything to Damien. I knew that I would need some help to distract Xander while I questioned the twins and asking Liam would be dangerous since he was still not sure about Xander and me dating. Damien was the one who always supported me in everything and so, he was the one I called.“Why is Damien coming over?” Xander asked while I was putting the waffles on the table. I turned to him and just raised an eyebrow at him. To help me interrogat
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
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 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 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

“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

“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
