"Fire!" Maya exclaimed.

With sleep still laced in my eyes, I began to run in circles in search for safety. I ran past mother on the couch and made it for the door. The minute I stepped out of the house and banged the door, there was a loud gong in my head.

Was it mother that I just passed?

I frowned then held a hand to my chest. The house wasn't burning when I ran down the stairs. Our smoke detector didn't go off, so what the hell was Maya up to?

With wrinkles on my forehead, I lazily pulled open the door and went straight to check my calendar. Tracing a finger on the paying and stopping on today's date, I confirmed that it wasn't my birthday.

Grumpily, I made my way to the couch and stared at my mother. I blinked rapidly and tried to analyze what was going on.

"Mom?" I called, but there was no reply.

Mother was dressed in a black gown and she sat stiff, e

    We locked gazes and the corners of his lips twitched into a smirk. With the roll of my eyes, I averted my gaze to a much important person–Cameron.He smiled and the crinkles on the sides of his eyes made it obvious that he was genuinely happy. He stared around the living room with a smile that could not be contained. I made my way to where he was and hugged him, squeezing him a little."Someone missed me." He wriggled his brows and I hissed, playfully shoving his head back a bit."Baby!" Maya exclaimed, hugging her boyfriend so tight it made me yearn for mine.Speaking of my boyfriend, where was he?I turned and scanned the place for my boyfriend then spotted him

    Tristan grinned evilly before he plastered his lips on mine. He locked my bottom lip with his lips and vice versa. Tristan's hands went all over my body and when the image of him and the so called Lola flashed in my head, I pulled out."What's wrong?" He asked when I refused to put my head on his."Nothing." I lied, walking away from the bed to view my beautiful self in front of the mirror."C'mon, babe. Talk to me, please." He took baby steps to where I was and wrapped both hands around my waist.Shrugging it off, I replied, "I'm okay, there's nothing wrong with me."Tristan groaned and pinched the bridge of his nose as he wakes back and forth in my room.

    Maya and I glanced at each other before pushing back our heads and barking out a loud laughter from the back of my throat. Tristan and Josh made their way down the stairs and I smiled at Tris. Even with sleepy eyes, he looked sumptuous and absolutely handsome.Josh on the other hand was shirtless. His hair was messy, but it didn't tickle my fancy even for a little bit. He had on black shorts and his muscles flexed with every step he took."Why didn't you just walk in naked?" I muttered and he caught my gaze."Because I know y'all wouldn't be able to stand it." He smirked and winked."Because you'll be too disgusting to look at." I hissed and dusted the couch with a rag. "Good morning, baby. How was your night?" I directed the questio

    I glared crossly at her and took my seat–my appetite was gone. I didn't like her one bit and I wanted her out of my house.I took my plates to the kitchen and dumped it in the dish washer before walking back to the living room."What's wrong with your face?" Josh directed the question to me and I puckered my forehead at him."None of your business, dimwit." I snapped and plopped down on the couch next to Maya.Tristan and Cameron sat together and talked about boy things, while I was having a glare battle with Josh. Lola occasionally flirted with him."Who's in for some nasty truth or dare?" Josh asked, glancing at our faces. "Or should we play deadly dare or dare?

    The harsh banging sound of our living room door was the last thing I heard from Maya earlier today. She was mad at me and didn't return my calls or my text.I tossed on the bed and focused my gaze on the door, wishing it'd creak open with Maya's eyes shining from afar, but it didn't happen. I waited till my lids became heavy. Maya had gone to where I had no idea about. Was what I did that bad that she had to push me away in such a manner?No one answered the question I had asked.I looked to the right and sighed when there was no best friend sleeping like a hobo beside me. I rubbed my palm on the empty bed space beside me before my eyes enveloped each other.Sun rays pierced into my windows and fried the skin of my closed eyes. I groaned.I had left the windows open, hoping Maya would crawl back in. Wait, did I forget to close the window?Quickly, I jum

    Both our eyes widened and our jaws slacked to the bed as we stared at each other, confusion forming lines on our foreheads."Tristan!" The lady like voice called again and that was all we needed to push us out of the bed.Quickly, Tristan ran to the door and plastered his ear on it. "It's my mother."Tristan whispered and rushed back to the bed. He gave me my clothes and I dug my leg into the cargo pants."Coming, mother!" Tristan exclaimed, rocking back and forth butt naked on his heels.My heart pounded loudly and when I was done dressing, I heaved a sigh of relief and watched Tristan as he hurriedly walked to the door. Just when he was about to twist the handle, I noticed something and pressed my hand on my lips."Tristan!" I whispered, stressing the tone and he glanced over his shoulder. "Why are you naked?"He stared down at his body and face palmed–A soft g

    She grinned like the Cheshire cat and stepped aside for us to walk in."I'm not here for pleasantries," I started, walking into the house and glancing from left to right. "I'm here for my best friend."Maya walked down the stairs with a backpack strapped to her shoulders. Her eyes were puffy and bloodshot. Her nose was red from blowing too much mucus."Calm down," Lola said, rolling her eyes at me. "I didn't steal her. She showed up at my house last night and I allowed her to spend a night here. It's not like I'm fucking her or something.""Are you okay?" Ignoring Lola, I rushed over to where Maya stood and enveloped her in a hug."Mmhm." She sniffled, hugging me back."What happened to you?" I asked, checking her face for any bruises. "I'm sorry for what I did. I have no idea what entered me... I just felt jealous that you had someone and I didn't.""It's okay,

    Lines of confusion formed on my forehead as I glanced from Maya's face to that of her aunt. What were they both talking about? I was as lost as a stray cat.Her aunt sat behind the desk and she looked to be in her middle twenties, but very young. My eyes involuntarily drifted to her boobs and noticed the white long sleeve she was putting on wasn't thick enough because I could see that she was wearing something pink inside. Her boobs were palm size.My eyes went higher and noticed glasses sitting comfortably on the brim of her nose. She rested both her elbows on the desk and clasped her fingers, glaring crossly at Maya."Please, don't tell my parents." Maya begged, raising her head for the first time since we arrived her grandfather's hospital. "They'll kill me and never trust me again."I was lost once again. I felt like a foreigner in a strange land and it felt like nothing they said made any sense to me. Did Maya kill someone? What in God'

    My heart pounded violently and my throat became dry, I struggled to breathe as I dropped down on my knees, my hand gripping my stomach tight.That was the end, I knew I was going to die someday, but I didn't think it was going to be so soon and by a stalker who I once used as a rebound... Karma was real.Slowly, I bent my head to look at my bleeding stomach, but to my surprise, there wasn't a pool of blood on the floor. I raised my palm to look at it, but there was no sign of blood.But he shot me. My subconscious pointed out and I stared down at my stomach again. No blood.Must be my back.I rubbed on my lower back and viewed my hands for blood, but there was nothing."Oh!" A groan beside me caught my attention and I looked to the right.The saddening sight drilled a hole in my heart. My body shook internally as a frog sat comfortably in my thr

    "W-what do you mean by you're here for what is yours?" I stuttered, rigid to the spot as a thousand and one ways he could hurt me flew around my head."You know what I mean..." He drawled, shoving his hands into his pockets. "My bitch."His words stung me and my eyes widened when I realized something. I shook the thought off and laughed."Stop this, it's not April fool's day, is it?" I questioned between laughs and glanced at my wrist watch before taking my gaze back to his face."What does gazing at your wrist watch have to do with this, Jade?" He tilted his head to the right with a mischievous grin playing at the corners of his lips."It shows dates too." I gulped and hoped it was a joke. "Quit scaring me, have you seen Tristan around?"I craned my neck to survey the area, but there was no other person on the building. I used the opportunity of looking for Tristan to take two steps away from him."Not so fast.

    Father placed a box of ring in my palms and asked me if it was beautiful enough and if my mother would like it. After inspecting it with my eyes, I nodded and he bought it. We walked out of the jewelry store and I was super excited for both my parents. They had been seeing each other again and I couldn't wait for them to live together under the same roof again.I was depressed. My stalker wanted it to be the death of me, but I refused. He had been sending disturbing messages and pictures of myself in my underwear or even walking into a supermarket. He was following me every where and I never felt safe anymore.My phone rang and it was the same private number. I refused to take the call because I knew it was none other than the bastard that came to this world to frustrate my life.Dad was trying to work on it under ground, but it was moving very slowly because he wasn't using any help. We didn't want the stalker to suspect. I had strongly disagreed for h

    Tristan's POVIt had been a while since Jade and I had spoken and I still didn't know what to do. Why I had said Lola's name that day, was a mystery to me. I couldn't just explain what had happened to me. My chest was heavy and I hardly got any sleep these days.I usually didn't sleep till five am then I wake up eight in the morning, very tired and weak like I had been beaten.I rubbed my chin as numerous thoughts raced through my head. I loved her and didn't want to lose her. I had gone to the airport to tell her about how deeply sorry I was for hurting her in anyway, but she chose to ignore me. It really hurt like a nail was used to stab my heart.I sat up on my chair when an idea popped up in my head so I rushed over to book a flight to Manchester. I needed to see the love of my life and I needed to apologise. I wasn't usually a mushy person, but Jade changed me. There was definitely no oth

    We got to the house and halted down in front of a shiny Mercedes as instructed by Mr Thompson. It was already five in the evening and I was looking forward to seeing Maya again.She walked out of the house, buttered up in a black stretchy pants and a big tee shirt that had the writing, "daddy's girl" on it. The moment our eyes jammed, she smiled a warm one and waved at me. She adjusted her bucket hat and whispered something to her mom who pointed to her dad that was making a call by the other side of the house.She shrugged like she was saying, "I'd still do it anyway" to her mother. She ran to where I was and hugged me. She squeezed me a little and I patted her head. It was really cute the way our height difference was."Girl!" Jade and Maya exclaimed as they hugged each other so tightly, I feared Jade's big stomach would push out the baby. Goodness!"Careful, do not hurt my child." I pointed, going to separate the two breads buttered

    The next morning, she wasn't by my side and I wasn't exactly surprised. I mean, that was what she usually did to me.I got up and headed for the bathroom before dragon Lord came. I didn't want to hear about how he thought the name CeCe suited me because I used hours to prepare for the day.I scrubbed fast and dashed out of the bathroom then put on the uniform. Were we going camping or something?There was a knock on the door and I swore to punch whoever it was. It was early in the morning and they wouldn't even leave me be. They are already by my door, knocking for me to go down stairs and suffer in the hands of that man.He was molesting me! Emotionally and not physically, by the way."Who's that?" I questioned and a British accent made it's way into the room."Mr Thompson wants to see you now." She stated and took her leave after I had told her I was going to be there anytime soon. I walked out of the room and got

    I went down to the maid quarters and knocked on the door, waiting patiently for the maid... Was she Nancy or what was her name again? I couldn't remember.The door swung open and a maid with chocolate colored skin stood by the door way. Her eyes were grey just like Jade's, but prettier. Her hair was covered with a black maiden's cap and I could only see her front hair, which was curly. Her eye brows were funnily shaped, but her long lashes complimented her face and I must say, she was very beautiful."Hello?" She smiled and I could have sworn my heart walked out of my chest and threw cat wheels. "Can I help you?""W-well, I'm here to see uhm... What's her name again? She told me Maya's dad wanted to see me, but needed me to do something first." I stuttered then she opened the door so I could see her."Emily!" The maid I was used to exclaimed and the chocolate skinned girl laughed then closed the door so

    He clapped his hands, giving me a round of applause and tucked in the sides of his mouth."If it isn't the queen of England." He announced with humor in his eyes. "Do you need us to roll a red carpet on the floor for you?" He asked sarcastically and I chewed the insides of my cheeks. This man was just unbelievable. I couldn't put up with his shit.I stood with my hands behind my back and waited for him to stop his shenanigans so we could go for the morning jog and make it back home on time."Let's leave, CeCe." He gestured his hands for us to run, but I looked behind me, wondering who the hell he was referring to as some CeCe. "You heard me Cameron, your new name is CeCe.""How about I make your new name ass hole?" I mumbled as I shoved my hands into the pocket of my joggers and he turned swiftly."What did you say?" He inquired, halting halfway out of the entrance door and I lied saying, "I sa

    "Cameron!" The father yelled and I pulled it of Maya with bug eyes. We both popped our eyes open and looked at each other with fear in our eyes.Instantly, I stood up from the bed and ushered Maya into the bathroom before rushing back out to spray some airwick in the air. I instantly wore my pants then smelt myself before I wore a flat look and went over to the door. I pulled it open and scratched my hair like someone that was confused about what to do with his life."Cam-" he hesitated when he had seen me leaning by the doorway. "Been calling you for like ages. Where did you keep your ears, man?""Sorry, I was asleep." I tried to soun husky. He shoved me a little out of the door way and got into my room.He took a quick scan of the room and his gaze fell on me when he was done with whatever he was doing."Why is there so much airwick in here." He waved his hands as if he was fanning dust away from his face and he coughed a little with a puc
