I'm late. I'm late. Pearl left in the early morning but I woke up late. Now, I'm running madly in the hallway. Thirty minutes late. I have never been late like this. My bag is swinging back and forth in my shoulder. It can even fall at any minute or I may even fall. In stress, I took the wrong stairs and turned down again. 

" Holy shit. I should have stayed at home." I complained and missed two steps on the stairs. Oh, no. Please, don't fall and get embarrassed in front of many students, Emily. I had that thought and my eyes involuntarily closed. But then I felt someone's hands on my wrist catching me in time. My face got buried in someone's chest. Thank god. 

" Sorry. Thanks." I said, turning towards my class direction in a hurry. 

" Hey, What's the rush? The class is almost going to be over." That, someone spoke but it is no one but Ryder's voice. 

" Ryder. You are late too, " I asked breathlessly.

    " Back to reality, Milly. What are you thinking?" I heard Jason's voice which brought me back to the present. Pearl is already out of sight." Nothing important. What's up?" I asked, giving him a space to sit next to me.

    After some classes, Pearl's back to normal. Now, we are in the ground for P.E ( Physical education) class. To be honest, I hate this period. Why should I even run in the ground or do some exercise? Am I going to participate in a marathon?" Someone's looking so tired. The period hasn't even started." I heard Ryder's voice behind me.

    How dare can she talk like this? I thought she's out of Jason's and my life for good." Get the hell out of my sight," I said, trying not to make any scene. That's not me. I have no idea how to be a bitch like her. I gave a hand to Pearl to help her get up. She rubbed the dirt off her dress. She looked at her elbow in pain." Are you okay, Pearl? " I asked, examining her hands." She's fine. Stop overreacting." I heard Crystal's voice again. What does she want from me? Can't she mind her own business?" I told you to..." I started still trying to act calm. But then, I heard a girl's voice behind Crystal." Maybe Pearl wanted to call Andrian to show her injury. But he won't give a fuck about her."That's it. Mess with me. I can deal with it forever. But talking about my best friend like this is beyond the limit. I do remember this voice. It must be

    " You aren't a coward, Emily. You are not going to say this to your mom and get back to Paris. I don't want that to happen and definitely not because of Crystal." Jason stubbornly said. I'm not a coward. I don't wanna be a coward. I need to face this. I can't imagine myself entering into my class again when all are talking and laughing about this fight by seeing the footage. I wish I could put an end to this." We can talk about it later. Right now, she needs some ointment." Ryder reminded by seeing my elbow and legs which are slightly bleeding from the pressure I had given to them in the ground while fighting crazily. Did you hear it? Crazily. I'm ashamed of it." I don't need any ointment. I'm skipping the class and sit somewhere I can be alone." I replied but Ryder's grip on my hand hasn't changed. He's holding me still but his voice isn't angry." Just put some ointment. Then we can skip the class. I promise yo

    " Her name is June. She was a twelfth-grade student when she died." Ryder said." How she dies?" I asked. That's when Both Jason and Ryder spoke at the same time." Murder,"" Suicide,"" What? Oh my gosh! What's the true story? Don't you know it?" I asked looking at either side." It's not a suicide. It's a murder." Jason strongly confirmed." Go ahead. Tell what happened. I'm sure that it's suicide." Ryder responded." You got the wrong information. On prom, everyone stayed a little bit longer in school. That's when this girl fought with her boyfriend. Their presence seems disturbances to others so they occupied this room to sort it out. When her boyfriend's temper raised, he slapped without a second thought. He didn't think it would cost her life. She fell and hit her head on the table hard. All that the boy saw is her bloo

  • Who owns my heart?   Roleplay...Meh

    " What the..." I looked at it and read the heading and the below details. Our school is selecting students for auditioning for a play. But what's the story? It must be mentioned somewhere." Why are you looking at some trash? Throw it in a dustbin." Ryder said without taking a minute to look at it." No. It's not trash. Our school is conducting a play. They are auditioning students for a Vampire drama called 'Dark Night'." I said and read all the necessary information given in it.The next minute, Pearl snatched the paper from me and blurted something. " Sorry, Em. I totally forgot to tell you about this. I'm auditioning for this play. I'm not sure which character should I choose. I don't know whether I'm good enough to audition for the main character but..."" Whoa, whoa. Stop right there. Why are you always giving me a late update about anything? I guess you have amnesia. Now, you can proceed by ta

    The next hour of my life was going on with happy tears. I never felt so happy before. Nothing could be equal to this moment. I know my dad will leave Florida again. But atleast I got to be with him for a week. That seems pretty long to me. I should probably put leave for some days. I want to embrace every second with my father." You never wanted to skip school, Emily. Not even for a day. You are doing something new." My dad said. He can't imagine his daughter not being a nerd. I'm always a nerd.

    I didn't notice. I didn't notice who comes to my mind first. Even if I did, I'm kind of afraid to think deeper. Maybe this isn't the right time to decide." I guess you don't remember. But I hope you notice it next time." My mom said after I hesitated to answer. Finally, the day's over with a little conversation with my mom.....After three days...." Hey, Em. I got the script for the best friend character. I have almost done with learning it. Do you want to hear it?" Pearl asked once I stepped into the class. She did her rehearsal with me. After an hour of practice. I attended some boring class and some interesting ones too. Now I'm sitting in a chair near the swimming pool. In case, I forgot to mention that I had joined swimming classes a week ago. Even though Jason isn't my coach, it's still good to be a class where Jason is present. There's a month left a swimming competition. So, the beginners on

    I embraced this moment with Jason but I know there will be more memories with him for the rest of my life." Are you calm now, Jason. I don't want you to hide your emotions in front of me." I worried." I can't say I'm a hundred per cent happy, Milly. But you are still in my life. That's the important thing for me. Months ago, you drowned. I can't take the scene out of my mind. This thing is far better than that. You could have died that day and it didn't happen. I'm grateful for it every day."" You are the one who saved me, Jason. I could never forget that. I feel like I don't deserve it." I frowned. He saved my life but what did I do for him." You deserve it, Milly. If we never met, I would have never felt true love. You helped me with Crystal's stupid games. I would have caught in it forever without an idea about it. You took the risk to delete our footages. Overall, you are the best thing that happened to me. All the time I have spent with you is pr

    I bite my lips and stared at him for his reply. He doesn't even take a minute to respond." You don't even need to ask me, Emily. I will be your boyfriend. Like you said, officially. I love you so much. I have been longing to hear these words from you. All I want is you to be happy no matter who you choose. But I always wished I could be the one for you. You have no idea how happy Iam feeling right now." Ryder said as his hands went to either side of my hips. He lifted me and swirled in a circle. We both smiled and laughed at each other." I'm feeling much happier than you, Ryder," I told him." No. I feel happier than you," we continued arguing who's more happier. Atleast, he helped me land on my feet.

    A week passed by after all the chaos. Patrick was taken to the hospital. He lost more blood and I'm the one who caused it. I wouldn't have done it if he didn't point the gun at Ryder. If Patrick tried to kill me, I would have stood like a statue in fear but it's not me. It's Ryder. I couldn't do that. My hands moved to take the gun within a fraction of second. I can't wonder what would have happened if I didn't shot him. Maybe it's time to get over that incident. The police officers encountered me at the station. But Ryder was with me the whole time. My parents are called to the station. Somehow the news was gone to Jason's ears too. He came to the station for me. Ryder and I told about Patrick's psychotic activity. At last, they filed a case against him and he went straight to jail for all the things he tried to do. Of course, there are a lot of proofs. Patrick almost tried to kill all other students. So, they all stood up for me. It took a week f

    " Shut up. We aren't going to do that." I shouted at him while Ryder tapped in his phone. I heard the ring and soon a girl attended the call." Are you still in school, Anna. Meet me in the backstage of the hall." Ryder ordered." What? You haven't talked with me for ages. Now why are you..." the girl is in the call sounded angry." I wouldn't call you unless it's necessary. Just come here. I will explain everything." Ryder tried to keep himself calm." He called her. Now, let us go to get the first aid. I'm not going to let his hand bleed." I shouted at Patrick when Ryder hung his phone.Before he could reply, Pearl spoke. " I know where the first aid is," she said and got the first aid in the same room. Time passes as I helped Ryder wrapping a bandage on his hand and waited for Emma's friend Anna. I almost lost hope in her. What if she doesn't come here? with that one thought, a blonde girl came through the door casually. But when her eyes looked

    " Please don't freak out, Em. I will explain it. Don't tell anyone." Pearl pleaded with fear in her eyes." Say it now. Why there's a gun here? I'm still freaking out." I lowered my voice this time." This is a real gun. We are supposed to bring one duplicate gun for the play. You have probably seen it in the play. The main female character tried to use it for self-defence but didn't pull the trigger."" So, are you saying that she used a real gun in a school play?"" Yeah. She bought them here. But something wrong happened in her house. The real ones and duplicate got switched and then we couldn't tell the teachers at the last moment. So, we carefully used it. I'm just keeping it until she comes back and takes it with her." Pearl explained." You got to be kidding me, Pearl. You all should have told the teachers. It's not safe to have a gun in school.

    Three months later:" Psst.."" What?" I slightly turned my head towards the backbench to see Ryder's trying to get my attention. Do you know where we are? In the exam hall." Give me your answer sheet," he commandingly asked. He also has the hope that I will help him." You haven't studied anything and now you are..."" No advice, Emily. I could hear all day just to watch your face, but not now. Paper, please..." He told and pleaded in the end with all hope. How could I say no?" Take it. But promise me, we won't get caught,"" I will make sure of it," He smiled and got the paper while the teacher was distracted by eating something which she took from her handbag. I highly doubt that her handbag is a Doraemon pocket. She eats a lot as an invigilator.......Finally, we all headed out of the

    " Her iPhone drowned too. It completely destroyed. Now, tell me why you care about it, Milly. You don't need to think about her phone when you could have died today." Jason said seriously. I know he won't say this if he knows what happened." It's the phone which caused this, Jason. Ryder was right on that day when we three went alone to sort this issue. Crystal was spying on me to get photos. She's been following me all this time. She caught the moment on her phone when you proposed to me on my birthday. She did the same when I was with Ryder. She even took a photo of us when we stayed in a hotel for one night. I don't know how she's capable of getting the photos. She threatened me that she send it to my parents and ruin my whole chance of graduating." I started telling him and explained the part happened in the locker." Now, you know why I did that, Jason. Tell me the rest of the part. I want to know what happened after I blackened out. W

    It's done. "I did it,"" And then there's a thief. Give it to me." I heard Crystal's harsh voice. My hands started shaking. I ost the grip on her phone but managed to catch it before it falls." I'm just here to delete my personal information. Deep inside your heart, you know who's the thief?" I managed to speak in all the bickering noises coming from all side in the dressing room." Give my phone back, bitch. Where is beck? Beck? I couldn't have trusted her. I should have thought that the stupid girl is your friend." Crystal shouted, making a scene." She's not stupid and she's not here. I won't give your phone unless I know you don't have any backup of these photos."" Do you think I will wait and watch until you find the backup photos? Who do you think you are dealing with? You can't over-smart me, bitch. Don't test my patience." She shouted at the top of her lungs. The one th

    I stared at the empty place where Crystal was standing a minute ago. The next batch lined up for the match. Jason already got out of the pool. He's surrounded by his friends. I can't go to him to ask for help by explaining the situation. I have no other friends with me right now. All I have left is me. How am I going to save myself from Crystal's plan? I have to delete the photo. Footage plays a large role in my life." I will wait for you here," Lexi told Crystal and crossed me as she made her w
