STEPHEN was waiting for Kace as he watched her talk with Chandler. Since when did they become this close? It was definitely not just a friendly greeting. They looked so serious in their conversation. When Kace turned around, he quickly averted his gaze and pretended that he was walking back to their building.

“Stephen?” He heard Kace calling out to him.

He turned his back and saw her approaching. “Oh… uh Kace.”

“Why are you still here?” She asked.

“Uh… JM let me stay for a few minutes.”

Kace nodded.

“How about you?”

“Uh…” She paused. “I was… I mean… I ran into someone.”

“Someone?”

She nodded. “But it was nothing. Come on let’s just hurry back.” She was about to run but he stopped her in the arm.

“Kace… I… wanna ask you something?”

She got alarmed. Could it be that he saw me talking with Chandler? But I could just say that it was for the renovation of the office. She shook her head. “What’s that?”

“It’s about the party on Friday.” Stephen’s eyes were fixed on her.

She got relieved that

    LUKE couldn’t help but think about Sophie ever since he saw her on the streets. He came here to Florida to forget about her… everything about her. He has finally started living normally without her and then, she suddenly showed up. Why now? Why here?He closed his eyes as he sat on the couch in their lounge. He hoped it was just an illusion… that it was just someone who happened to look like her. But then, he was so sure that it was really her. He took a deep breath to clear off his mind for a sec. Just then, he heard the front door open. “Oh Luke! You’re home early?” Lance asked him, as he slumped on the couch next to him.He didn’t answer. Actually, he didn’t go to school that day. He didn’t want to go out fearing he might see her again. He was not ready if ever he’d come face to face with her.Just then, Lance’s phone rang. He brought it out from his pocket and was surprised to see the caller ID. “Hello, Kace?” He answered. Luke got startled when he heard the person calling his br

    THE next day, Kace was expecting Luke to show up already since she needed LuKa for their activity in Chemistry. But to her dismay, he didn’t show up again. She was really starting to get even more worried. So after their classes that day, she decided to go to their house. Fortunately, Chester and Brandon volunteered to accompany her in going to their house since Nix got some errands to do in their shop.“Chief, I don’t really know his exact address so I don’t know how will we get there,” Chester said.“Hey! Then why did you volunteer to come?” Brandon rolled his eyes at him.“Why did you?” Chester asked back.“Of course we couldn’t just let Kace go there alone. Who knows what that punk might do?” Brandon answered. “He’s still a stranger to us anyway.”Kace smiled. “Thank you so much for worrying guys.”“Oh it’s nothing. By the way Chief, we heard Stephen asked you to the dance.” Chester teased.She sighed. She has been trying to avoid that subject since then. “He didn’t really ask me.

    KACE noticed that Nix has been quiet ever since she entered her apartment. That afternoon, they planned on shopping for their clothes for the ball which will already be tomorrow. They only have a few more hours left. But then, her bestfriend who has been constantly bugging her about shopping seemed to be not in the mood. “Hey, what’s up?” She tapped her shoulder.Nix got startled when she felt a hand on her shoulder. She hasn’t told her yet about what she saw yesterday. She was still trying to absorb everything she saw. The guy who has been sending the notes to Kace… she was right all along. It was Stephen. Why can’t I just tell her that it’s him?Kace was really worried now. She has been ignored by her a few times already that day. She had no idea what she did wrong. “Nix, answer me.”“Uh… this is nothing.”“Come on Nix. I hate seeing you like this. Tell me what’s wrong.” She tried to convince her.Nix sat up straight on the couch. She took a breath and decided to finally tell her. E

    MEANWHILE, Luke busied himself on the food on their table and ignored the request of every girl who wanted to dance with him. Honestly, he didn’t even want to be there that night. But he had no choice since his brother dragged him to come. He couldn’t even care less that he had no partner. All he wanted right now was for the party to end.He glanced at the dance floor and saw Lance and Nix both enjoying the music blasting on the hall. Just then, he caught sight of a couple descending the stairs. He noticed how the girl walked with discomfort with those heels on. He realized that it might already be Kace with Stephen on her side, judging the stature of the guy.Then, he saw Nix grabbing Lance in the arm to walk towards the couple who just arrived. I was right. It’s Kace and Stephen. He watched as they greeted them and invited them to their table. He straightened up on his seat and waited for them to arrive.“Ah, I’m so tired.” Nix remarked when they reached the table where Luke was sit

    KACE went back inside the hall with Stephen still filled with unanswered questions in her head. She thought she’d be able to meet the guy already. She sighed as she sat next to Nix on their table.Nix noticed how anxious she was on her seat as soon as she came back with Stephen. “Hey K, you alright?” she decided to ask.Kace got startled a bit when she heard Nix asking her. She just nodded even though she’s still quite in shock after what happened outside.“Why did you suddenly step out of the hall when the lights turned off? How did you even manage to make your way out? I couldn’t even see a thing a while ago.”Kace heaved a deep sigh. She was about to answer her when suddenly, 4 guys showed up infront of them. “Are we on the right table?” one of them asked, who was holding a camera in his hands.No one answered among them. Then, another one spoke, “Hey, Brands you said this is their table.”“Chester?” Nix finally asked back.“See? I told you,” Brandon answered. Then, the one with a

    JUST then, the announcement for the “Couple of the Night” finally came. JM called out the names of the people who were qualified as finalists. “Who voted for this?” Nix suddenly asked.The others just shrugged.JM started announcing the names. “…Jules and Alex… Victoria and Theo… Stephen and Kassandra…” When their names were announced, Kace was really stunned. Stephen has already been waiting for her to stand up but it seemed like she didn’t want to. Kenneth and Chester pushed her up so Stephen caught her hand and helped her stand up. They both walked their way towards the stage.Meanwhile, Luke appeared on their table and sat down next to his brother. “It’s not done yet?”Lance shook his head. “Where have you been?”“I just… took a nap in the car.”“You what?” Lance exclaimed.“What did I miss?” He asked.“A lot,” Nix answered beside Lance.Luke finally noticed Kace and Stephen on stage. He wondered why they’re up there. “Are they being awarded?”“No. Not yet,” Nix said in a gloomy

    KACE was awakened by the sound of her alarm clock ringing. She didn’t know how many hours she spend sleeping that day. All she knew was that when she stood up from her bed, she was still feeling dizzy. She didn’t even take any drink last night. How come she felt like she has a hangover?She sat on the stool infront of her mirror, remembering the weirdest dream she ever had. Even in my dreams, I still couldn’t see who he is, she thought. Just then, someone knocked on her door. “Kassandra, are you awake?” It was her brother yet again, disturbing her privacy.She dragged her feet towards the door and opened it. Kris was staring at her with his eyebrows furrowed. “Why don’t you go wash your face first before going out?” He pushed her inside again. “Come out when you’re not looking like a peasant.”Kace made a face at him. “Yeah. Yeah. Whatever.”After washing her face, she proceeded to the kitchen to get a glass of milk from the fridge. She felt relieved after drinking. Just then, someone

    CHANDLER has been feeling a little bored watching a movie with Sophie in their Home Theater. He really didn’t want to date her but he couldn’t say no to his mom. He felt that Sophie wasn’t liking any of it either. He turned to her and noticed that she was feeling a bit sleepy. “Should we just turn it off?” He asked her.Sophie got startled when she heard him ask so she just nodded. “I’m… sorry. I’m not really comfortable with this.”He smirked. “Glad we feel the same way.”She fell silent after that.He’s not used to people like her. He just feels really awkward right now. Then, he decided to clear his throat just to break the silence. “Uh… so, what should we do?”Sophie stared at him with a blank face. Then, she scanned the corners of the room. “Your mom is probably watching us.” She pointed at one of the CCTV cameras which was directly focused on their direction.He sighed. I can’t believe mom. He patted his forehead in annoyance. “I guess we couldn’t escape.”Then, she checked her

    “LOOK at that. Even her friends are avoiding her now because she’s a cheater... A liar!” She could clearly hear the murmurs around her, as soon as she stepped out of their room.Nix has probably told the guys about her secret now so none of them dared to approach her nor even tried to demand for an explanation. Maybe they were too mad to even think about that. And she kept on convincing herself that it’s alright because it was her fault anyway.She sat on the cafeteria table and ate her lunch alone while watching her friends from their usual table. She just wished she could’ve told them about it so none of these could’ve happened but thinking about the fact that this was all for her brother, she had no regrets at all.She was busy playing with her food when suddenly, someone startled her from behind. “Kace! Do you want to sit with us?” It was Stephen.“Uh... I don’t know Stephen.”“I don’t know why your friends are not talking to you but whatever it is, I want you to know that I’m sti

    “KASSANDRA...” She heard her brother speak whilst focusing his eyes on the road. Her mind went completely blank after what happened. She didn’t know whether she should be mad at the fact that her brother just spilled their secret out to Nix or the fact that she didn’t tell this to her friends, not even to her bestfriend.They were on their way towards the Parker’s residence which Kris insisted of doing. She realized that he was just being protective of her, but this was just too much for her to handle.“I’m sorry if I just blurted it out to her like that. She needed to know and eventually, everyone else would find out about it soon,” Kris told her.“That’s why I’m more scared just thinking about it. If Nix reacted like that, then it’d be worse if the others would know.” She leaned her head on the window pane.“Kace, we can’t hide this secret forever... Especially now that I need to closely supervise you. I can’t just let that incident happen to you again.” His face was serious and she

    IT has been a week since the incident happened. She has been discharged earlier than Luke but she wasn’t able to visit him in his room, not even once. After what she discovered about him having a relationship with Sophie, she felt like she should distance herself from him. They needed time for each other to patch things up, she thought.When Luke entered the room with a cast in his left hand, everyone in the room crowded him and started asking him questions about the incident. They were all so concerned about him. And though she also wanted to come up to him and ask if he’s alright, she decided to just stay still and control herself.He moved towards his chair after entertaining their classmates who just wanted to feel like they care when in fact they don’t. His first instinct was to greet Kace but then, he remembered his note to himself to stay away from her so he just shrugged it off.“Kace!” Someone called her from behind. She turned around and saw Stephen coming her way.“Hi Steph

    WHEN Luke woke up, he felt his head still throbbing in pain. He could vaguely remember what happened last night. But there was one thing he was sure of... Kace was there to help him. That’s when it struck him... What happened to her?He quickly tried to get up from bed, but when he moved, he realized that his hand was connected to something. Just then, he heard someone speak, “Luke, stay still. You’re at the hospital now.”He looked infront of him and saw his brother standing up. “Where’s Kace?” he immediately asked.“She’s doing fine now. She didn’t have any major injuries so don’t worry. Just rest first,” Lance answered him.“I can’t just rest. I need to see her,” he said, getting up and reaching the IV bottle.“Luke, I already told you not to get up.” Lance warned him.But he didn’t care anymore. He just wanted to see if she was really alright. He continued to get up and when he started to walk, his foot slipped. Luckily, Lance was there to catch him just in time.“You just won’t r

    LUKE shook his head trying to forget the awkward encounter he had with Sophie the other day. He wasn’t planning to attend class ever since that day she appeared and begged him for forgiveness. He just couldn’t stand seeing her and pretending that everything was alright. But he also didn’t want his brother to worry about him so he decided to just attend their classes and ignore the girl as long as he could.Kace couldn’t help but notice the strange behavior that Luke has been showing the past days. She couldn’t understand why he was suddenly acting cold. When she tried to approach him, he would just answer it quickly and shortly unlike before. She wanted to know what’s going on but she didn’t know how.She has been standing in the middle of the field with her classmates all lined up for the soccer drill. She hadn’t realized that it was already her turn to kick not until someone threw a ball at her. “Aww!” She rubbed her arm and turned to the culprit. It was one of her classmates who la

    KACE was stunned when she heard Luke mumble Sophie’s name. Did they know each other? She shouldn’t even care whether they knew each other or not but she didn’t know why it keeps on bothering her mind.She was busy answering their worksheet in Chemistry when suddenly, their teacher spoke. “Ms. Larson, you will no longer be Mr. Hansen’s lab partner from now on. Ms. Sophie Young will be his partner.”She stopped for a second trying to absorb what she just heard. Does it mean I’ll have to work alone for the project? Why did they have to do this? She sighed, knowing that she couldn’t do anything about it. “Alright sir,” she mumbled without looking at their teacher.She stood up from her seat and was about to move to another vacant table to give space for Sophie but then, someone stopped her in the arm. She turned to her side and saw that it was Luke.“Sir, we’ve already started working for our project so i don’t think the switching of lab partners is possible,” Luke suddenly said to their

    AFTER taking the bus going to the amusement park, they walked around until they found a good place to sit on. There were few people who were there at that time. Mostly were couples who were having picnic dates and just enjoying the rides.It was only her second time going there yet she felt like it was her first seeing how much the place has changed. She was thirteen years old when she first went there with her brother who was a year older than her. They both escaped just to go there and Kris got scolded really badly by his dad afterwards. She felt guilty that her brother takes the blame for everything she does wrong. He was always there to help her. And now… she has to face this problem on her own. She has no plan of telling it to him. She didn’t want to be a burden anymore to her brother.Luke turned to her and noticed how serious she was. It was his first time seeing her like that. He really wished he could find a way to cheer her up even a bit.Just then, Kace decided to speak. “

    “IT was you, Ms. Kassandra Larson!”Those words kept on playing over and over inside her head even after their class. She still couldn’t believe that she was being accused of cheating in class. She didn’t even know how that paper got under her chair. Even if it was true that she wasn’t well prepared that day, she still couldn’t afford to cheat like that. Her classmates were all throwing her looks like she’s got a disease or something that whole day. But she tried to ignore all those. She was just thankful that Nix and her friends still believed in her.She rose up from her seat as soon as their last period ended. She still had to go to the library as part of her sanction. When she was about to leave, she was stopped by her friends. “Kace, don’t worry about it too much,” Nix said, hugging her.The guys nodded behind her. “Thank you for believing in me. That is enough for me,” she said to them.“We’ll find out who did this Chief,” Chester muttered.Brandon nodded beside him. “I’m sure
