I ran as fast as my weary feet could take me and glanced over my shoulder to see if he was after me, but he wasn't. Just as I averted my gaze to my front, I tripped on something and landed on my knees.
Balls of tears raced down my cheeks and my heart combusted in my chest. This feeling was a terrible one and I couldn't take it. I wanted to scream and tell the world just how evil Bellamy was. Maya warned me about him, but I never listened! I followed my stupid heart and didn't take my brain with me.
"Why?" I sobbed, clutching my heart.
Instantly, two hands held my shoulders and drew me up. The moment I raised my head and saw Bellamy, I flinched with a sour expression on my face.
"Get away from me!" I bellowed, using all the strength I had to push him away from me.
"Jade, I'm so sorry." He begged, trying to hold me again.
"Don't you ever touch me." I spat. "I hate you and I
"The whole thing." I sobbed, holding Maya's shirt like my life depended on it."What thing?" Cameron voiced, collecting me from Maya's arms and inspecting my body for a bruise. "Did someone hurt you?"I sobbed with the words clogged up in my throat."Did Tristan hurt you?" Cameron glared at Tristan and I shook my head.He released me–I crawled back into Maya's arms and did what I knew how to do best–cry. Cameron walked out of the sitting room and I buried my head in her laps."It was all a dare." I muttered. "Bellamy and the whole dating thing was a dare.""What?" Maya raised my head from her laps and blin
"Like, I'm not a player... I got the brain, the looks, the everything but I choose to be good because I don't want guys playing my baby sister." He explained, sounding pretty annoyed. "And here you are, doing Sam and Bellamy.""What the fuck, Cameron?" My jaw dropped and I shook my head in shock. "Dude, I never did anything with Sam.""I also heard him saying you're dating Tristan.""Dude, even if I was... Since when did you care about what I do?""You're my sister and I-" he hesitated and wore an irritated look. "The hell, can't I just care?""There's nothing between Sam and I. I hate him... He's a pervert that ripped my dress in half and I got saved by Tristan. He took pictures of me in my ripped dress, but Tristan posed as my boyfriend for him to leave me alone and delete my pictures.""He did that?" Anger flashed in his eyes. "Why didn't you tell me?"
After a week of being a misery gut, I finally found me some happiness! I couldn't wait to get myself a rebound even if my conscience had been judging me about using somebody. After all, I was used, wasn't I?I sling my backpack on one shoulder and had a once-over at my self in front of the mirror. I wasn't quite satisfied with who I saw. A girl with dull gloomy eyes frowned at me... Dark circles were slowly becoming visible under her eyes, making it a bit obvious that I had been a sad sack for a while.I forced a smile, but it still didn't wipe the dark circles that were almost invisible. I decided to apply some make up to cover it up. Being happy in Bellamy's presence would crush him, the right end side of my lips twitched in a small and a small wicked laugh escaped from my lips.Speaking of Bellamy, h
Maya giggled and hoped on my bed."What's happening?" She asked, poking my ribs."Stop poking me." I whined and Cameron kept the bowl on my bed then left Maya and I alone.She stopped poking and lowered her gaze to my bed. The happy mood dropped and I wondered if I was too rude when I asked her to quit the poking."What's wrong?" I asked, sounding a little worried."Nothing." She shrugged. "Just- it's nothing serious.""Maya... Please." I shook her lap. "You can tell me anything.""Well, there's something coming up." She started. "I don't think you can go after what happened, but I came up with a crazy idea yesterday.""What idea?""Maybe if you attend today's party, you might bond with Andre or make Bellamy jealous by frolicking with him.""Nice..." I stroked my chin and a smug grin was etched to my face.
The disco light flashed different colors and the place whirled. I blinked once, twice and thrice before holding my head in my hands. We stood in a circle playing the game of bite the bag.Half of the grocery bag had already been cut out. It was my turn to pick the bag with my mouth so I stepped into the middle and sucked in a sharp breath before stretching my arms and going over to were it was seated.Slowly, I bent with my hands behind my back and tried my possible best to pick it up without using my hands. The moment my lips came in contact with the bag, I bit the bag and lifted it off the ground."Ay!" The crowd went wild, cheering for me.My head swole and I brushed off invisible dust from my shoulders. A tall dude collected the bag from me and cut a small piece out before placing it on the ground.Andre was next and he stepped into the middle."Go Andre, that's my boo
"Where the hell am I?" I stood up from the bed and picked up a book from his side table, shoving it in front of him as he attempted to come close."Calm down." He whispered, glancing at the door and back at me."Why should I calm down?!" I bellowed looking down at my body. "Where are my clothes?"He knelt on the bed and stretched his two arms in the air in an attempt to calm me down. "Jade, chill. They are in my wardrobe."The moment he said this, I raised my head up and noticed he was shirtless and wore sweat pants for the lower part of his body."Why the hell are you naked?" I frowned and hastily touched my body. "Did you-"
Andre and I sat on the table my best friend and I usually ate lunch, chattering and giggling. I glanced around the hall and couldn't make any of the faces I saw to be that of Maya's. She had developed the habit of coming late to the cafeteria which was unlike her."Babe, what do you think about this?" Andre tapped my shoulders and showed me a picture of a girl sitting on the floor in her undies and her tongue was out in a crazy style."Seductive, I guess." I puckered my forehead and wondered why he showed me the picture of a half naked brunette. Wasn't I supposed to be his girlfriend or something? "Why?""Oh, her photo got leaked today." He stated, scrolling through his Instagram feed."Are you for real?" I widened my eyes and collected his phone to scroll back to the picture. "She looks familiar.""Oh, yeah. She schools here.""What's her name?""Lo-"
I laid in bed on my sides, watching as lightening illuminated my room and a thunder clap followed after I did a count down from ten to one. The rain fell pitter patter on my ceiling and matched the beating of my scared heart.Why was I scared? A whole lot of things were on my mind. First thing was Maya leaving me for England and me having to deal with my problems alone.I sighed and faced my ceiling with my hands interlocked on my chest. Could my life get any worse? Another lightening flash accompanied by an angry thunder clap shook the house and made me jerk. If only Tristan was here to sing the thunder buddy song with me. Who was I kidding? He was probably on his bed, sleeping and snoring as loud as a cow.Suddenly, I fe
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
