Hayden's P. O. V.
Shoot...I feel terrible for yelling at Millie like that. I had no right. She didn't know how I was feeling. I was the one who insisted on helping her talk to Zack, so of course, she came to tell me about him.
But I can't help it. It made my heart twitch every time I hear her get excited about Zack. I should apologize to her later.
Millie's P.O.V.I chased after Hayden like a madwoman. That stupid idiot! The ice sent a cold shock through my body, and now my shirt was wet. I was already mad at him for being mean to me earlier, now this. I'm not letting him get away with this!He went inside his room and tried to shut the door, but I pushed myself in before he had the chance then jumped on top of him. He fell backward on the carpet, taking me along with him
Hayden's P. O. V.I couldn't help it. The closeness of our bodies and the flowery scent of her hair was driving me wild. I had to kiss her.Surprisingly, she didn't get mad at me. I could tell she was a little flustered but not mad. How can someone be so innocent?
Millie's P.O.V.It was finally prom day! I was feeling overwhelmed and ecstatic. I finally get to spend time with the guy of my dreams. I couldn't wait to show off my dress to him!I went to Alison's house so we can get dressed together. We already had our hair and makeup done. I put on the dress then put on the necklace Hayden gave me. I had gotten pretty attached to it and found myself wearing it all the time.
Millie's P. O. V.We took a walk under the moonlight. He stopped all of a sudden, then held my hand. This is what I had been waiting for. I've had a crush on this boy for six years, and now he was standing before me holding my hand. I should be overjoyed, but instead, I felt an unfamiliar pressure on my chest."Millie, I want to tell you something," Zack said.
Millie's P. O. V."When I was eight years old, he was seven. Our family went to England. We went to some type of craft show where this lady was selling handmade jewelry. I went to check out the stall with toys, but Hayden insisted on staying with mom," Zack paused.I urged him to go on.
Hayden's P.O.V.I had to force myself not to tell her how I felt. I wanted to kiss those red lips as I held her tight in my arms, but I resisted the urge. She was Zack's girl now. Just like she always wanted. I want to be happy for them as I love them both, but it hurt too much.I need to stay farther away from her. Maybe I will move somewhere else. I decided to enroll in a college out of state. I know my parents thought I gave
Millie's P.O.V.Hayden rode off somewhere in his motorcycle after our talk. Something was definitely wrong with him. I saw him a few times this week, and he didn't tease me once. For some reason, I hated it. I know I've complained about his endless teasing and name-calling, but without them, it was like something was missing in my life.I've been hanging out with Zack more. He was true to his words and was trying to make us wor
Hayden's POV. It has been a few days since I talked to her last. I thought I was ready to let her go, but I thought wrong. I pined for her for years, and it wasn't easy to just give up on her. I think about her every day. I was sitting at the breakfast table with my family when my dad hit me with the news. The news I had been dreading since last year. "We are going on a family camping trip, and before you say something smartass, yes, it is required that you go since you are part of our family," dad said. "Yeah, whatever," I said. I didn't feel like I was part of the family some days. I felt like an outsider and they merely tolerated my existence. "Millie will also be joining us since she is practically family," mom said. Great, a four-day trip stuck watching the girl I love acting lovey-dovey with my brother. Just perfect. Now I don't want to go even more. Millie came up to me when I was packing up the car on the day of the tri
Millie's P. O. V. "So, you are going to accept that position in New York, so does that mean you'll be moving there permanently?" Zack asked me. "Yes. Alison, Hayden, and I have already found an apartment. Hayden found a job as an IT there, so we should be all set," I said. "That's great. I'm happy for you guys," he said. I finally graduated from University, so it was time for me to start a new chapter of my life. It was Hayden's birthday today, so we gathered around at his house. I guess in a way, it's also a going-away party since we were moving away soon. It was also the time for REVENGE! He thought I forgot about the cake incident at Alison's party all those years ago but nooo. I have been waiting for the right opportunity. And now is my time. We gathered around to sing happy birthday. Hayden wrapped his arms around my shoulders and gazed into my eyes lovingly as I stood next to him. His mom fed him a piece of cake. Then it
Hayden's P. O. V. I was relieved when Millie said she believed me. I don't know what I would've done if she had left me. Probably kill both Ellie and Kevin. I needed to find out what the hell their deal was. Ellie definitely wasn't into me. She did that to help her asshole brother Kevin who was obsessed with Millie. I knew that deep inside. "I need to confront those two. Enough is enough," I said grimly. They took things too far. They are lucky I wasn't calling the police on them and pressing charges for assault. "Yeah, you are right," Alison sighed. "We can't let Kevin harass Millie later after you leave. He probably thinks he had won." "Let's just show everyone that we are still together for now, and their idiotic attempts to break us up didn't work," Millie said angrily. It was time for us to head back, so we packed all of the stuff and headed to our cars. "Is everything okay? You didn't really sleep with Ellie, did you?" Ja
Millie's POV. I woke up in the morning alone in my bed. Was Hayden awake already? It wasn't like him to wake up early. He always complained about how he wasn't a morning person. I wondered if he was too drunk and fell asleep in the living room. I got up and took a quick shower, then went to look for him. He wasn't in the living room. All of a sudden, I heard Alison screaming, so I went to see what was going on. My heart stopped as I saw Hayden in Ellie's bedroom. They were both half-naked. I couldn't stop my tears from flowing down my cheeks as Ellie said those ugly words about Hayden. MY HAYDEN! I ran out of the room. My mind was clouded with anger and sadness at first. I tried to breathe slowly to calm myself down. There was no way what I saw was true. Hayden could never cheat on me! But what if it did happen? What if he did sleep with Ellie in a drunken state? Would I be able to forgive him? I couldn't think. I just needed to get ou
Hayden's P.O.V. I woke up in the morning with a terrible headache. What the hell happened last night? I turned around, expecting to hold Millie but sat up abruptly as I realized I was lying next to Ellie. Ellie woke up and sat up next to me. "Good morning, sexy, you are up early!" she said. "What the fuck is going on, Ellie! Why am I here?" I said and looked down. I wasn't wearing a shirt. Although I still had my jeans on. "What do you mean why? Don't you remember our amazing night together?" she pouted. "I don't know what the hell you are talking about. I had too much to drink, and now I woke up next to you. Explain yourself, Ellie," I demanded. Ellie's smile disappeared, and her eyes turned cold. "You are being mean to me, Hayden. As far as I know, you wanted this. You couldn't wait to take me to your bed last night." "LIAR!" I screamed and grabbed her shoulder. "What's all this commotion?" I heard Alison say and open
Hayden's P.O.V. "Who wants to take shots!" Ellie exclaimed. "I am good," Millie said. She winced. Not a fan of alcohol, I guess. My good girl, I smirked as I thought to myself. The others voted yes. "Hayden?" Ellie waved the bottle of tequila at me then poured some into a cup. "Sure, I guess," I nodded in agreement. I started to drink early because I was the family's black sheep, so I was used to it. "Oh, come on Millie, stop being a goody-two-shoes and join us," Jacob said. "She said she doesn't want to, so don't pressure her," I said and wrapped my arms around her protectively. She put her head on my shoulder and snuggled up close to me. I held her hand and gently squeezed it reassuringly. We were at Ellie's grandfather's beach house, and everyone decided to gather around in the living room. Ellie poured tequila into shot glasses and passed it on to the rest of us. "I think I am gonna turn in," Millie
Millie's P.O.V. After a nice long day at the beach, we went back to the hotel. Hayden grabbed me before I had the chance to go to the bathroom or change. God, what am I going to do with this guy? "Alone at last," Hayden smirked. "What are you planning to do about it?" I pretended to look scared. "Oh, I don't know. I guess you are about to find out," he said and pressed his lips on mine. I grabbed him by the neck and pulled him closer to deepen the kiss. His hands searched throughout my body, sending a tingling sensation all over it. I was already turned on from watching him lying on the beach shirtless, so I was hardly in the mood to protest. "Hayden....I..." I tried to speak in a hoarse whisper, but he kissed me again and shut my mouth. "Shh...don't push me away this time, just let me make you feel good," he whispered, and I nodded. There was nothing I wanted more than for him to touch me. He took my swimsuit cover-up
Hayden's P.O.V. I watched Millie as she pranced around in her cute little red bikini. She must be trying to punish me, which is why she turned down my advances this morning. Dammit. I was turned on more than ever. I saw Kevin watching her from the corner of my eyes. Rage slowly built up inside me as I saw how he looked at her, but I couldn't do anything since he hadn't done anything to her. I tried to keep my anger bottled up for now. One wrong move, and I'll snap at him. His sister, I think her name is Ellie came and sat next to me. I wanted nothing to do with her or her brother, but I decided not to be rude. So I returned her smile and turned my attention back to Millie. "Hey!" she said. "Hey.." I said distractedly as I watched Millie swimming in the ocean. "So, you're dating Millie, huh?" she said. "Yeah," I said. She inched closer to me. "That's funny because she doesn't seem like your type," she smiled. I looked at
Millie's P. O. V. Hayden visited me again so we could all go to the beach. I was ecstatic. I wasn't too happy about seeing Kevin again, but at least Hayden would be there. "Hayden, stop that! We are going to be late," I groaned as he started to caress my breasts while I was getting ready. "Not if we are quick," he smirked. "Qui...quick? We aren't doing that!" I protested. "Aw, why not?" Hayden pouted. "Because they will hear us from the next room. And what if they come and walk in on us? So just get off of me before that happens," I said and pushed him off. "Fiiine, you are no fun," he said. We were going on a beach trip today, so I was trying to do some last-minute packing. But of course, Hayden has to come and mess with me. "You got everything you need?" he asked. "Yeap," I answered. "Toothbrush and toothpaste?" "Check." "Shampoo and conditioner?" he asked. "Check!" I sa
Hayden's P.O.V. "Text me as soon as your plane land," Millie ordered. "I will," I said and kissed her forehead. After having an amazing weekend with my girlfriend, it was time for me to head back home, which was really upsetting, to be honest. I didn't want to leave, but I couldn't afford to stay. I'd have to try and be more patient, I guess. "If that idiot Kevin try to do something again, you tell me right away. Got it?" I said. Next time, I'd break some teeth. I don't care if I go to jail for that. "Yessir!" she saluted. I kissed her goodbye one last time before I got on the plane. I knew Millie was a strong independent adult now, but I couldn't help but worry about her. At least Alison was with her, I guess. Or else, she would be all alone in the city with no one to rely on. I was exhausted by the time I got home. It wasn't an awfully long flight, but it felt like forever. I felt lonely as soon as I landed back home. I got too used
