2021-06-05 17:51:42"let me go!" I yelled but he doesn't answer as his grip on me became tighter and firmer.
At this point different eyes were on us while some people even brought out their camera just to have a record of what was happening.
He dragged me away from the school cafeteria into the Janitor's closet and locked the door behind him. My whole body was numb and I could hear the rise and fall of my heartbeat.
I made to reach for the door but he dragged me back and pinned my body against the wall.
"What the hell do you want from me?" I yelled but hissed almost immediately as his grip on my hands became tighter.
"Why the fuck were you ignoring my messages" he said with his face really close to mine that I could feel the heat from his mouth as he spoke.
"What fucking message are you talking abo....oh!" I realized it was him who had been sending those anonymous messages to me

We finally arrived at the mechanic shop, it wouldn't be fair to call it a shop because it was enormous, I never knew a place as huge as this was in this town. But yet I couldn't find a lot of workers but just a man and a young boy who looked more like his son from the wide opened door.Zach came down from the car and walked into the shop with his hands tucked in his pockets, I guess that was the way he liked to walk."Don't you wanna come down?" He turned to me and asked but I pretended not to hear him by drifting my attention to my phone. He shrugged his shoulders and walked into the shop.I could see him talking to the man who now offered him his cigarette and I was surprised to see him puffing it. I never knew he was into smoking too.After waiting for what felt like hours, Zach finally came back to his car and started the engine. I had thought he wanted to repair something in the car but I was wr

It was time for school and Grace had promised to take care of Joe but nevertheless I wanted to do it myself because I missed doing it even though it's not up to a week yet. "I missed you Isabella, please don't stay away for too long so you won't leave like mum" he cupped my hand with his two little hands as he looked at me with his big brown eyes and wet curly hair. "Joe I'm never going to leave you and I'm letting you know this" "But she said you were going to leave like my mum" he said and I raised his chin to look at me. "Who said that?" I asked and he wiped the tears off his face with his wet hands. "My girlfriend" he said and more tears started to run down his eyes. I would explain to him later about the girlfriend thing but now is a different time. "I don't see any reason for me to leave you Joe, Always and forever will I be with you even in my grave" I said and he hugged me tight. I placed a kiss on his head and tried to stop th

The ride was filled with awkward a silence and Xavier's word keep playing in my head"Look! I just want you to know that I have nothing to do with everything that is happening and I'm also trying to convince those dudes but they're hell bent on continuing the dare even though Zach himself wants to end it" did Zach really want to end it? Perhaps he was tired of walking with a Shrek."I'll stop here" I said to Xavier as I came down from his car and thanked it, I wasn't at my destination yet but the atmosphere in the car was getting stuffy and suffocating.I would pick Joe up and go to my house, I don't want to be a burden to the Anderson's. I arrived at their house and Maya wasn't there yet I assumed she must have went out with Frank.I greeted Grace but couldn't find her husband, perhaps he had work to do."I'll be taking Joe with me today" I said and she nodded her head with a smile, I knew how much she loved and want him around but I need some tim

"you're sleeping over today" He said as he parked his car in front of his huge house. I didn't contemplate or complain because I just wanted the dare to be over already. I have one week more to play along. "Can I at least call Maya with your phone?" "No!" "But I have to make the call, it's urgent besides you fucking smashed my phone the previous day!" I yelled. He rubbed his temples with his eyes closed before getting down from his car without saying anything to me. "Uhm, hello..??" I called for his attention. He turned to look at me with his hands tucked in his pocket. He sucked on his teeth and tilted his head to a side before focusing his face on me. "If you want me to lend you my phone then you'll have to earn it!" He boldly said. This guy here is totally unbelievable, after smashing my phone and making me lose my perfect job he's here telling me to work to earn just a call? "You realized you broke my

ZACH'S POVI kept thinking of how she came to bargain throughout the drive. To be honest I pitied her the instance I saw the look on her face after her posters were pasted all over the school by that bitch. Can't Aurora just let go and let us go our separate ways.We arrived at my house and I was grateful. I loved being alone with my peace and quiet since I'm used to it already."You're sleeping over today" I said and she didn't look surprised. Aurora wanted her to sleep over which I clearly don't know the reason for. She's a jealous bitch and even though we were not dating she would still want to be all over me.I could dismiss her by eight just like I did the other day but a part of me wants to keep her around for some while. Perhaps it's because of her meekness and naiveness."Can I at least call Maya with your phone?" She asked. I wanted to say yes and give it to her but I do

ISABELLA'S POV The rain fell really heavy as thunder clapped throughout the classroom making the whole kids to scream in fear. Even though some were not actually scared but just wanted to have fun. The teacher had left the classroom earlier for the staff room because of the constant screams from the students. I laid my head on my desk as I couldn't bare to watch them perform their minutes of madness. Some class couples proceeded to smooch and romance themselves and sounds of kisses filled the air. "Bitch!" Maya's voice rang in my ear really loud. "Shit! I'm still going to need these ears for seventy more years" I cussed but the fuming Maya wasn't buying any thing as she rested her hands above her hips in a dramatic way. "Where were you yesterday?" She asked while tapping her feet on the floor. "I..uhm I had things to do" I lied, technically it was a white lie. "Come on, I'm your friend and you're keeping things from me"

"wear something good" his words still echoed in my head but what do I have that fits with the word "good". "I'll guess, you don't have something good enough to wear" he said while his hands were relaxed on the steering wheel. He was sounding rude but I didn't see a hint of rudeness or sarcasm on his face, perhaps this was his preferred way of talking. "Sorta" I replied. He kept quiet and I felt uncomfortable, I whined down the window of the car for fresh air since the atmosphere of the car was getting heated and suffocating. The cool breeze from the rain filled the car and I could tell that he was also enjoying it. "Thank you for the phone" I said realizing I haven't really gotten to thank him, even though he was the one who damaged it at first. He turned to face me but diverted his attention back to the road with a smile on his face. Was he getting to warm up to me? He stopped the car by the roadside and gestured at me t

ZACH'S POV I checked my phone and it was getting too late already, the saying about women taking too long to dress up was actually true. I walked towards her room door and opened it to unleash my rage at her. "Shit!" She cussed out of fear"you startled me and hold on what if I was naked?" She asked and I cocked my brow at her. "It's my house" I said and immediately noticed her, I had entered the room but wasn't paying to the way she looked. I lost my breath and words, I had come here to torment her but I couldn't bring myself to say any word at the sight of her. She was the perfect definition of beauty, more beautiful than I have ever seen her. The emerald green dress fit her perfectly as they hung perfectly on every right curves. Her hair wasn't packed in a messy ponytail but rather her curls were left to fall on her back, her perfectly smooth back. Her lips were shining under the fluorescent lightbulb teasing me to touch it.

"Zachary O'Connell! Where the hell are you and what the fucking crap do you think you're doing!?" My coach yelled through the phone as my wheel kept swerving through cars in a hurry. "I'm sorry coach but I can't make it today" I responded with my eyes focused on the road. I had disobeyed a lot of traffic rules and out ran a cop car. Hopefully I don't get caught by them; well not today. "What the hell do you mean you can't make it? We're having a final match today and your teammates are all waiting for you, if you don't come here we might lose the game. Zach are you out of your mind!" He roared and even though I wasn't there I could picture the look of frustration on his face. "What's even so more important to you than your big game which would fetch you and your team a lot of money?" He groaned in frustration. "It's my girlfriend's graduation coach! It is fucking important!" I yelled with exc

The priest had arrived while I kept on staring at the silver coffin that was laying beside the six foot hole dug for it. The burial was to start in about thirty minutes but Zach and I were the only present ones around.I loved the fact he stood by me through all of these and made sure I laughed, he realized I wouldn't eat any thing but came up with a smart plan to only make toasts because they're irresistible.Shortly after, a black car pulled over, it belonged to the Andersons. I watched how they hopped down from their expensive car and walked towards us; they somehow have different cars for different occasions."Isabella" Joe greeted as he welcomed me with a hug which I returned with a kiss on his forehead. I watched how he also hugged Zach and I was kind of surprised at the sudden affection. They liked each other but never admitted it, They always want to act tough to each other but today's hug was strange but lovely.

ISABELLA'S POVLife can indeed change in moments and the fact that you think you've found a source of happiness could be really scary when your happiness leaves you in the least expected moments.I watched how Zach went into the kitchen to make something for me to eat even though I didn't tell him to, I wasn't sure I would be able to eat the food with my lack of appetite. I was stuck in between believing what he said to me or not but then if it was really true it means I couldn't trust him or put my trust in him. What if I also get pregnant for him and he abandons me just like he did to that girls. Perhaps the reason why he doesn't want to have sex with me was because he knew he would abandon me if I get pregnant.I was lost in my thoughts when I heard Zach's footsteps approaching me. He hadn't been talking much to me after my father died though or perhaps I was just the one who have been grieving too much to notice.

"Hello there!" She smiled even though the smile didn't last long on her face before falling."Can I?" She motioned at me to create space for her to enter the room. As much as I didn't want anything else to hurt Isabella, she was her mother after all and perhaps she came to console Isabella so I created a space for her to pass.Another lady in a corporate dress followed behind her after flashing me a death glare or perhaps that was how she looked at people. Some other two men in suit tried to enter the room but she had gestured at them to wait outside the door while she was in the room with the other lady. There was no possible way I would let her in this room alone with Isabella so I walked closer to them."What a fine apartment you have here darling" she said to Isabella whose eyes have been on Fiona ever since she entered the room. I could see the flame of hatred burning in her eyes but her physical strength wasn't mat

I continued to go round the hospital asking every single nurse or doctor that comes my way but still no positive response. I was getting really worried and almost broke down in tears but decided to search for her in every way possible.I thought she must have gone to her father's house but the moment I drove there, the doors were locked and everything was still the way it was before I rushed her father to the hospital. She wasn't here either.I went back into my car to continue the search for her, perhaps she went to Grace house to talk to Joe or so I thought. The moment I got there I met Grace sitting outside with Joe as she gently stroked the poor crying boy's hair."Grace!" I called for her attention and she turned to look at me."What brings you here?" She asked with a little smile on her face. But I wasn't here for the greetings either so I instantly cut her off."Where's Is

I realised the only way I could have Isabella back and win her trust is by telling her nothing but the truth about my past and about why I had acted that way towards her. I'll be ready to face whatever happens before then even if she decides to leave me but then I would know I wasn't being a coward anymore. I started to have doubts if I truly wanted her to know and if truly I am ready to accept whatever happens next. I know it's normal to have doubts but I just hope my doubts doesn't over power me from telling her the truth. I drove back home from the airport and walked straight into my room, staring at the mirror I realized I had changed a lot from the Zach back then, the old Zach was brutal ad cared less for anyone's emotions but the new Zach is a changed person who wouldn't want to hurt anyone in order to make his love happy. I hope she would see me for the new me and not criticize me for my wrong doings just like everyone had done in

ISABELLA'S POV"Then leave" his voice came out deep and strong that it caught me off. I wasn't expecting him to say that to me and my heart just broke."What did you just say?" My voice croaked but there was no sign of emotion on his face. I was stuck on whether to believe this was my Zachary or not. I could feel the hot fluids flowing down my eyes already."You heard me right Isabella!" He flatly responded, a sting of pain and bitterness found its way to my heart. It hurt badly that I couldn't breathe well neither could I say anything for some while. I stared at him in disbelief wondering if I had been talking to another man all along since I came to Brazil."Zach what...what have become of you?" My weak voice couldn't complete the sentence at once as it kept on breaking."This is me, this has been me all along and perhaps you were expecting too much from me" he dropped another

I watched how she spent almost two hours trying to fix her self up after spending thirty minutes in the bathroom. I noticed she had changed after we started to date, she suddenly loved to dress up and look good. I'm sure she was doing that for me or probably got out of depression and needed to look good but I loved it. "We're leaving this room in a week time aren't we?" I teased and she looked at me from the mirror with a smile on her face. "Take a chill pill bro, I'm just being a woman here" she responded and I couldn't hide the small chuckle that left my mouth. After some while of waiting, she was finally ready to go out with me. I had no idea where to take her to but I guess I would treat us a nice meal before showing her around. She should love it. We entered my car as I drove through the streets of Brazil. My mind wasn't at rest as I kept on looking at the mirror hoping no car was follow

I woke up to the sweet aroma of roast chicken that filled my nose, Zach must have gotten up earlier to prepare a meal for us because I was damn hungry last night even though I ate most of the pizza. I remembered a day he said he didn't like to eat with me because I end up cheating him most of the times. It wasn't actually my fault, he was a slow eater and hell who the fuck eats slowly so I always end up helping him to finish his food on time, even after that day he said those words he still ate with me the next morning. I removed the blanket from my body and realized I was still naked but then I felt sad because we didn't get to have sex together last night after everything we've done already. For some reason when he was about to thrust himself into me, he got a call on his phone that turned his mood off. I noticed how bothered he was about the call but didn't want to ask him last night hoping we might still do it
