ViaI remember halloween's with my mom. Since I was so young she would always love to dress me as a princess and do my makeup.I remember her also loving to dress up. She would always look gorgeous. My brothers and dad never dressed up but they loved it when we did."Wait, then what have you and your brothers been doing since then?" She asks me as we wait for the car to warm up.I had to think hard on this question because after my mom died. We never really tried to get our Halloween spirit back."Well Dean usually goes to his girlfriend's parents house but since they have a house they will probably spend time there. Chris usually goes with Kol to parties and I would usually tag along sometimes or sleepover at a friend's house."Georgia looks at me. "And your dad?" She asks me and I frown.What would my dad typically do on Halloween?"He would usually work or stay home alone." She frowns at that."Okay then we have to make sure to buy candy on our way back. I want to give out treats t
Via"Hey can I ask you a question and can you please be honest with me?"We stop at a red light."Of course sweetheart, what is it?" She asks me as she lowers the radio off."Do me and Justin look good together?" She looks at me with a puzzled look on her face."What do you mean sweetheart?"I try to think of a good way to explain myself."Me and Justin- our relationship to the public eye. How do we look?"I hope I worded that correctly and I hope she understood what I meant."Honey. I'm going to be completely honest here, like you asked." She continues driving again. "You guys look like your typical high school football player and cheerleader couple." As I'm about to talk, she cuts me off."Wait I'm not done" She turns right at an intersection. "It looks like you both got together because that's what everyone expected of you two." She hesites a bit then continues. "That or he asked you out because he wanted one thing in particular. From experience I can say." She sighs. "Both aren't
Via"Via, wake up!" Kol throws a pillow at my face making me drop my phone on my face."Ow, what the fuck Kol." I throw the pillow back to him. "I've been up, loser. I'm even fully ready already." I get up and show him that I'm fully dressed."What time do you wake up!?" Kol walks away. "How the fuck does her annoying ass always beat me? It's unfair." I hear him complain then hear a door close.I roll my eyes and lay back down on my bed. "Dumb dumb." I mumble as I pick up my phone and begin looking at my friends' snapchat stories again. I hear the door open. "I have to go to school, stop!""Via won't miss you, come on. Stay." I hear Chris sayKol runs to my door. "Your brother is fucking crazy." He looks out of breath while he is fully dressed. His hair is a total mess but I ignore it. "He-"I cut him off. "I don't want to know." I get my stuff and walk past him. "Horny weirdos." I head downstairs."No, don't go. I'm not done with you yet." I hear Chris yell and a door slams again."J
ViaAs I step out of the car I see Maximilian sitting on his motorcycle. He's facing in my direction. Once Justin closes the door. Maximilian takes off his helmet but continues looking in my direction.Justin suddenly pulls me into a hard kiss. I don't mentally process the kiss but with Maximilian still in my mind- I smile into the kiss.We pull away. "Baby, I need to go talk to someone before school." He kisses my forehead then lets me go. "I love you and I'll see you later."I look back in Maximilian's direction but he is no longer there.I turn back to Justin and smile. "Me too baby."Justin walks off without another word."You love him," Kol says as we walk to the cafeteria for breakfast."Shut up." I grab a tray.Kol grabs a tray and grabs a bowl of oatmeal. "What? You were the one that said" He does finger quotes "me too" I roll my eyes and grab a yogurt with a little bag of granola. "Why don't you just end it?"That would be easier- wouldn't it be? But unfortunately life isn't
ViaOnce we get to the main office, I open the door and I hear Kol behind me say something along the lines of "Via watch out." but it's too late, I run face first into someone's hard chest."Fuck." I fall hard on my ass. I look up at the person I bumped intogreat.Mr. Everhart is looking down on me and his face shows a bit of concern. He quickly turns serious as he notices Kol and Aiden feet away from us."Oh Ms. Hawthorne. I apologize, I didn't see you. Let me help you up" Mr. Everhart reaches out his hand but I shake my head."It's fine- I'm fine." I got myself up with a little help from Kol.I didn't want to touch him. I want to feel his skin connect with mine. No matter how badly I craved it. No matter how badly I craved him. I had to keep my distance.What he said a few weeks ago- way before they even put a hand on me- was right.They are my academic mentors. My relationship with them should only be purely platonic. I shouldn't be wanting more than that, because it is highly inap
Via"He made you print out how many copies?" Kol asks as I put my combination into the locker."159 copies all together." I state as I put my physiology book into my locker.The hallway was basically almost empty since lunch had already started. Me and kol on the other hand were running very behind since we both had to use the restroom."So you're mad that you had a whole ass free period today?" He rolls his eyes as he opens his own locker which is located a few lockers away from mine."No, I'm mad that the stupid printer of the main office didn't work." I explain. "Everyone in the main office was busy so I had to stay there like an idiot till someone finally helped me." I get my Pre-Calc textbook. "And to make matters worse, I was very late to give Mr. Beaumont the papers which lead him into scolding me even after I tried to explain to him the situation I went through.Then I was late to my 6th period which was just the tip of the iceberg." I close the door of my locker."Okay, I'll t
Via"So will you go to prom with me?" Justin asks, getting my attention.I stay silent and everyone around us starts chanting. Just like they did when Justin asked me to be his girlfriend."Say yes" They were all chanting on repeat.Kol nudges me forward as a sign that I've been standing still like an idiot for too long.What's one date to prom? What could go wrong?"Yes." The words leave my mouth and I quickly realize what I just said-"Yes." I repeat as I run to Justin's arms and kiss him.Everyone around us starts clapping and celebrating. The whole football team and cheer team were ecstatic and it actually made me happy.Everyone slowly begins leaving and Jenson gives me my food back. "Okay, I got to go eat lunch with the team. I love you and see you later." He kisses my forehead"Love you too." I kiss his check and he quickly leaves with the football team.As I sit down Kol sits down and begins shaking his head. "What?" I asks.I knew exactly why he was shaking his head and I kne
Via"I am very happy to announce that yes. Nobody in this class got anything lower than a C." He states as he hands Kol a stack of papers. "I will begin passing out your graded tests and Kol will be passing out your review packet for this week." Everyone replies with "Okay" or just simply nod.I turn to Justin. "What do you think you got?" I ask him and he shrugs."I don't know actually. I didn't study." Justin says and I state at him confused."What? But this was our 3rd quarter exam!?" I state and he shakes his head."I don't care about math. I'm perfect at almost everything, baby." He and Mr. Montgomery comes to us."Good job Justin. I'm proud of you." Mr. Montgomery says as he hands Justin his exam.A big fat A sits right at the corner staring right at me. A fucking solid A+ at that.My mouth falls open and Justin shrugs "Told you baby." he says then turns to his friends and they begin discussing the grades they got on the exam.I close my mouth and turn to Mr. Montgomery who was
