Padgett POVHis eyes didn't leave me, waiting for an answer, I don't know what to say but at this point, I need to lie my way out. "You don't know, who I am talking about, so if you don't mind, you should excuse me." I tried to walk away from him but he held my hand. "Let go of me." "I could help you, I know you are too shy to admit and I saw the way you looked at him at the bar last night when he kissed that girl, I know you are in love with him, it's only someone jealous or in love with her best friend that could react the way you react when you see your man with another girl...""I am not in love with him...''"Hey slow down, you are too defensive but you have nothing to worry about, your secret could be saved with me if only you agree to be my girlfriend." "What?" He was too straightforward. 'I will never be your girlfriend, I am not going to fall for your cheap blackmail." "I know you are in love with him, within, forty-eight hours, I will get points that show that you are in
Padgett's Pov I’m so dead right now Cameron hardly gets mad at me but when he does he’s a force to reckon with, if there is one thing, I couldn't bear, is the fact that he is mad at me, I felt my world crumbled when I heard those words from him. "Can't you talk, what do you have to say?" "I am sorry, I don't..." I tried taking his hand but he pulled away from my grip, my tears threatened to drop, and I felt doom."Um! Hey, Cam..." I said as he stared at me still furious tightening his fists."Explain to me why you didn't tell me Cassie was assaulting you," he said as I gulped down my saliva and then gathered myself, I realized that my secret was still safe. "Cassie!" "Yes, Cassie the bitch who dared to assault you.""Cam..." I seethed."What creamy, I’ve told you many times to tell me when someone is bullying you but no you prefer to keep it to yourself and get hurt in the process, I wouldn't know what to do just so you don’t get hurt and how will I protect you, if you don't tell
Padgett's POV"Everyone, listen up, Padgett Ryan, is my best friend and my sister, if anyone hurts her, they will have me to battle with and if you dare cross her part, you will get consumed by my rage, I know you all don't want that, not even those that call themselves my girlfriend or fling will go unpunished." It was crazy as they all stared at me, as he pulled me into a hug in front of this crowd, I could hear some admiring me, wishing to be me while others cursed at me. I could barely eat during lunch, as usual, the guys would talk about their basketball game and Newton kept glancing at me silently I understood that he was just looking out for points to be able to get me into becoming his girlfriend, he used the word fake but I am so afraid that, he had an interior motivate that is the reason, he asked for that, there are other girls, which means, he could pick from them while does it have to be me. Then my thoughts drove back to Cassie, her words were tearing me apart, those word
Padgett's POV"Go on and tell me, what is it?' He asked when I didn't say a word, he caressed my hand."Nothing just tell me, what you wanted to say?" "Okay, if you say so remember when we made that deal that I’ll make my relationship work and you’ll go out with someone, well who better than Cathy could fill that space, she’s beautiful, sexy, she’s amazing and for once I think I like a girl." He said smiling while I broke apart inside"So she is having a house party by the weekend, and since I broke up with Cassie, I was thinking of asking her out properly, and who better to help me than you right? Please Creamy, I really like Cathy, you have to help me out on this one I’m doing this because I want to make the relationship work and so you’ll have a chance at love, creamy, so would you help me out please?" He said as I felt my eyes watery"Cameron," I said tiredly"Can you stop calling me Cameron, I prefer it when you call me Cam, it sounds romantic." He said, I pressed my lips togethe
Cameron's POVThe next day morning, I was the first to wake up, she was still sleeping peacefully, my eyes went to her lips and I found myself rubbing my thumb on her bottom lips, I bit my lips and found myself falling my face slowly to hers, when her eyes flew open, as a result of the alarm. "Ah!" She screamed, as her eyes flew open. I got up fast from her. "Stop shouting, is me." "You," She drags the duvet to cover herself. "Yes me! What is wrong with you?" "I should be asking how did you get in?" "Oh, that! I was bored at home and father is around, you know how I hate him." Her eyes didn't leave me. "Fine, I came in last night, Aunty gave me the key, so I could show up anytime, especially when she is not around, so I could keep an eye on you and chase those bloody assholes from you." She rolled her eyes at me, then stood from the bed, she didn't bother trying to cover herself with the duvet, I noticed she ran very fast into the bathroomI laughed at her silly act and then sat
Padgett's POV. "Will you take your call or are you just going to stare at it till it stops ringing?" I heard Cameron's voice, snapping me from my thoughts. "Mine...mine... it's...""Are you alright?" He touches my head to wipe the sweat-forming beads on my forehead. "I am fine, let's go, we are late already," I said dragging him out, not after pressing my tab to silence it. In no time, we are at school, I was glad we finally arrived, this stupid best friend of mine, keep talking about that stupid romantic nonsense, that he thought, he planned for Cathy, I really don't know what is wrong with him, and what thou fuck did he have with the letter C that he keeps having a thing with every girl that her name starts with the letter C. "I never knew that Cameron was your mom."When I finally could breathe, this demon was here. I said mentally, then turned my eyes to face him, I faked a smile. "Hi, handsome!" "Don't patronize me." His voice came up, I looked at him with an expressionless f
Padgett's POV. I headed upstairs to freshen up and probably change into something nice, it was not yet my curfew time and I knew Mom would not be coming, I thought of wearing one of those short gowns but then I realized that Newton, looked like those bad boys that could take advantage of a girl even though I was lovesick, I still have to be reasonable and protect myself. Finally, I settled on my blue jeans and white sweater, the weather was a bit cold because Its getting dark. After I had my hair blown dry, I looked at myself in the mirror. I realized I was so pale, so pale from crying too much over that naughty Cam, I decided to put on red lipstick, my mommy was the one that brought the lipstick but I never did apply it because drawing attention to myself is something I don't like I applied it then rubbed it off with a tissue paper to make it a bit mild. "Perfect!" I was waiting outside when he drove in. "Hey young lady, come over here." I gave him a small smile and then walked to
Padgett's POV. "Who are you talking about?" I asked trying to act like I didn't have an idea of what he was saying. "And how was your date?" "Stop trying to change the topic, who was that?" "A friend, you don't know him." "Him! Are you going out with a boy? You barely know anyone around, you shouldn't go out with strangers, I was here the whole time waiting for you, only for you to show up with a total stranger.'"He is not a stranger." "Then who is he?" Start talking."Come on Cam, you are not here to scold me or tell me what to do? I am not a baby, I could care for myself.""Really?" "Tell me, why are you here?" I asked to change the topic"Never mind!" He walked past me, and I gasped for air, as I made my way into our house, I knew he was mad but I didn't try to stop him, I needed the space, I needed to work on my projects; I don’t even want to think about him and to crown it all, I don't know what I wanted. Probably, all I want right now is to sleep, I just need a long nap, m
