2021-12-19 07:23:56I woke up the next morning with a loud yawn and gave a full body stretch out before my eyes darted out to the floor when I remembered the event from last night only to realize, Ryder was already gone.
It was just 6:30am by the way and still too early to be out and going without making a sound.
The blanket and the clothes I lend him were neatly folded and placed on the arm chair in front of my desk, right here I would see them.
I took a deep sigh and lay back in bed for another minute or two before getting up to go brush my teeth and shower and get ready for school.
Pulling out a pair of dark Jean and white shirt from the wardrobe, I lined them carefully on the bed beside my sport Jersey before strolling into the bathroom to shower up. I bet Jasmine was still coiled up in bed no doubt. I thought about going over to wake her up but decided against it. I mean, if her alarm can't do it successfully then I doubt I could.

*I arrived in school some minutes later and made my way to my very first class. I slipped through the door and got settled down on my desk, my mind immediately wandering back to Jasmine and what she was blabbing about earlier at breakfast.I mean, I don't even understand exactly what she sees in that guy that got her thinking he is her fucking dream guy, blah blah.Is it the stupid lip piercing and tattoos that is clouding her vision and making her desperate? Because I can't think of anything special about that guy that is totally worth tripping over.Okay maybe, he has got lot of charms and incredible skills but that's not even enough to make her wanna lose her mind over him. For fuck sake, they barely knew each other.Mrs. Steward walked in and had me snapping me out of my thought as well. First period began and droned on and the only thing in my mind was the constant replaying of my sister's word like it was stuck on a

*I kept moving from side to side in an attempt to stay out of a lot of people way, especially the drunk and staggering ones as we continued to make our way through the sea of bodies cramped up in the dance floor.I craned my neck as we ascended the stair way,widely staring at the fancy decoration across the house getting stepped on by some crazy drunk ass kids as we went up in search of Oliver.We arrived at the passage way and she staggered towards the second door to the left and pushed it open and I quickly stepped inside, totally ready to drag Oliver out on first sight but got the shock of my life when my searching eyes fell on none other than Ryder fucking Smith.He was seated at the corner with a fat ass looking barbie attached to his lap and swapping spit.At first glance, I thought I was confusing Oliver for Ryder because for one, he was the last person I was expecting to find over here because last time I checked, he was supp

I jerked awake the next morning with a slight headache and quickly got myself in a sitting position. I rubbed my forehead for a little bit with a deep sigh because I was somehow hoping for Ryder to be gone by the time I wake up so I don't have to face him but I wasn't so lucky with my wishful thinking.Ryder was still coiled up and very much sound asleep on the floor when I turned on my side and stared at his direction.I groaned and lay back down,and immediately began to think up something useful before he stirred awake and remembers everything.Heck, I'm not ready to listen to anything he has to say. Best way is to shut him up if he trail towards that direction.I laid there for another couple of minute before I turned and glanced at the table clock and it was 6:30am.Fuck!Throwing the sheet off, I jumped back on my feet just as quickly, grabbing a towel and hurrying over to the bathroom to shower and got ready f

*"I don't know about you guys but am sure we are totally gonna win this match" Nathan said with almost certainty before taking a quick bite out of his chicken and salad sandwich.It was lunch time and we were all seated at our usual table back at the cafeteria. Everyone was eating and chatting about the previous basketball practice except me. I was barely touching my food as well as not contributing to the group conservation.I was completely deep in my own thought and staring blanks at everyone else.Noah gave a small nod in agreement at Nathan's direction, "you're right bro. We have everything it takes to really win this one" he paused and turned to look at me."What do you say captain?"I answered with a careless shrug and just leaned back down with a sigh, my elbow placed against the table.Noah equally sighed, his brows now raised at me completely, "what's wrong man, you don't look very happy today"He

*A whole minute went by with me just standing there and wishing for the ground beneath to open up and just swallow me whole but it didn't and instead had my entire wall crumbling right before me.I could feel my heart beating right out of my chest in a panic attack.What the fuck does he mean by 'he doesn't regret the damn kiss'. Was that statement supposed to make me feel any better? Because I totally do not.I feel angry and pained at the same time and above all?, lost. I was completely and totally short of words to say to him as he stood staring at me, probably expecting me to say something to reply him but I don't.Ryder on the other hand looked really hopeful as his emerald green eyes kept narrowing at me still with a hint of smile on his face.For fuck sake.To think that, this moment was the exact reason i didn't want him to remember in the first place and now that he has and he somehow thinks am cool with

*I hurried over to the bed without a word and pulled Jasmine off him, which also send her rolling to the other side of the bed with a loud yelp.I quickly jumped on Ryder and landed a clean punch to his jaw before he could even think to say or do anything else to stop me."How dare you touch my sister" I yelled and punched him even harder."Stop it Jaden, what are you doing?you are going to kill him" Jasmine began to scream at me to stop while trying to get me off Ryder but I wouldn't budge. In fact, It only made me even more angrier and i landed another punch to his jawline and another to his nose."I told you to stay the fuck away from my sister, didn't I?" I sneered at him through gritted teeth only to have the corner of his lips pulling up in a twisted little smile.What's so fucking funny?Is he freaking insane or what? Ryder seemed totally not bothered by my actions. I mean, not even one bit. Apart from the

*I walked past Ryder and sat down at my usual spot and Oliver walked over and sat down beside me as well before leaning over at my desk."I'm so sorry man, I didn't mean to call him names or insinuate anything as well. It's really lame of me" Oliver said sincerely and I sighed but turning on my butt to face him."There is no need apologizing to me man. It's Ryder should be apologizing to not me but anyways, I don't think he heard you so no point apologizing but like I said before, don't say it again"He gave a single nod, "you got it man. I won't, ever again"Just about then, Mrs. Steward walked right in and got everyone to settle down. she also went ahead to announce another one of her impromptu test, causing a loud groan to erupt throughout the whole classroom."This test is going to make up part of your over all scores, so instead of complaining, you might want to get serious with it because it's for your own good"Mrs. Steward ha

*Of all the fucking things I thought Ryder was going to make me do after agreeing to do absolutely anything to earn his forgiveness, I never imagined he was going to ask that I accompany him to the theatre to watch a movie.A freaking damn movie guys. That's what Ryder fucking wants.I kept staring at his really calm demeanor thinking he was just kidding around but he totally wasn't. In fact, he was just as serious as a freaking heart attack.I shifted from one foot to the next, my brow slightly raised at him, "You are not kidding?".Ryder snorted at me with an eye roll. "I'm dead serious alright?. I already got two tickets just in case you were wondering so yeah, I'm not kidding around"My mouth was practically hitting the floor at his words in disbelief, "you already got tickets?, I mean is this like a date or something?""Yeah, well I mean no. We are just gonna go watch movies like two buddies" he answered simply with a tight smil

Five years later.Jaden's POVI took another glance at my watch for the umpteenth time in a row and then back at the weather outside and sigh. It was still drizzling after a heavy downpour and I can't help but wonder if Ryder is still going to make it here as planned.I grab a glass of water from across the table and downed it, still trying to calm my nerve a bit. Five years has slip by so fast and a lot have changed around here. I graduated from college two months ago and even made it to my favorite basketball team as assistant captain.Jasmine was in her third year of college and barely come around. Just like I said before, a lot have changed around here but something have pretty much stayed the same like my relationship with Ryder. Yes we have had our ups and downs but we are still sticking it out.When his father found out about us, he felt Ryder was going through a rebellious phase and would eventually grow over it, forcing us to put our relationship on hold for a couple of month

*Thirty minutes later, we arrived back in school and at the venue where the party is being held. Finally arriving in school came with a different kind of headache. I mean, aside from posing for a compulsory photo session at the entrance with awkward position with a bunch of people I might not be seeing again for the rest of my life, I also had to deal with my sister clingy ass who is still holding onto my boyfriend's arm as if he is the only lifejacket in a middle of a sinking ship.This particular scene kind of remind me of the first time I saw them together and even though I was convinced Ryder was the one swooning all over her, now I know my sister is the nosy house fly that won't go away and leave us alone.I mean, where the fuck is her prom date for crying out loud. If Oliver doesn't find and take her soon, I will be forced to do something my side. Ryder on the other hand seem to be enjoying this way too much as he was gladly going with whatever the fuck she want without a sing

Jaden's POV*"Wait, is it just me or Alec seem a little pissed back there" I finally let out a breath once we got home and went up the stairs and into the safe comfort of my room.Ryder gave a careless shrug as he took off his shoes before jumping on my bed with a loud sigh. "I don't know, I think he was just his usual nosy self"Maybe am just being jealous but still, I wasn't very comfortable around the guy and that's just pretty much it.Taking off my shoes and shirt as well, I slipped into bed beside him and he immediately reached over and pulled me closer before kissing the top of my head with a sigh.We just lay in that position for a bit, no word uttered, just listening to each other heart beat before I heard him yawn loudly."Can I crash here tonight?" He asked while peering down at me with heavy eye lids.Wrapping my arms around his midrib, I held him closer before nuzzling my face into the fabric of his clothes. "Is that a yes?" He asked between laughs."Stay forever" I tol

Jaden's POV*"So, where are we going?" I said to Ryder as he handed me his helmet with a smirk."You will find out when we get there. Now, C'mon" He gave me a wink then his leg swung over and he positioned himself on his bike with a flick of his hair that was starting to look longer than usual.He did so in a perfectly and effortlessly way. Just like a fucking rock star would. I mean, he was already looking the part. Black jacket with equally dark ripped jean and boots.He was fucking perfect.I snapped out of my drooling and placed the helmet over my head and then pushed myself up and over the bike and immediately link my hands around his waist. And not once did I forget to sniff in his scent into my lungs. He smell so fucking divine and edible."You ready?" He called back at me and my grip tighten in response."Let go"The motorcycle engine roar to life instantly and next thing I know, we had sped past the school gates and also out of sight and towards an unknown destination."What

Ryder's POV*The rest of the day drone out slowly with preparation for our final exams. I barely even saw Jaden, making my day even more boring than it started out.I sent him a text earlier and he only replied with a heart emoji and a talk to you later.I can't believe how much am missing him even though am pretty much seated with the guys and they haven't stopped chattering on top of their voices."Why are you sulking?" Nathan asked me out of nowhere with furrowed brows."I'm not sulking Nat" I snapped at him."Yes you are" he said poking his middle index at me. "You look so sad without Jaden and it's starting to hurt my eyes pretty bad" he said and began laughing.Noah smack him over the shoulder with a weak glare. "Quit making fun of him. It's already hard enough that Jaden is not here to cheer him up. I mean, you wouldn't know since you haven't been in love and all" he gave me a sympathetic look and I just scoffed at him.Oliver and Cooper just chuckle under their breath, obviou

Ryder's POV*After walking around hand in hand, Jaden and I spotted an ice cream truck by the road side and went for it. We ordered for two vanilla with extra cherry at the top.Before I could take out my wallet and and pay for it, Jaden already beat me to it as he quickly handed the lady a few bucks."Hey, I really wanted to pay for that. You have been spending for us all night?"I said with a little sad pout.He gave a shrug, "I don't mind spending for us and besides, you did all the spending when we went out on a movie date last time so it's my turn""Alright" I told him with a smile and he reached out and pulled me closer to his side, his arms wrapped protectively across my shoulder while the other one held on to his ice cream comb.I took a lick at mine and felt the flavor melt in my mouth. "Umm, This taste so good" I have moaned and commented.Jaden gave with a questioning look before he answered with a nod and took a lick at his."You are right, this actually taste pretty good"

Jaden's POV*Ryder and I ended up back in my house and inside my room to be exact. My whole muscle aches like never before and instead of spending 50 buck at spa tomorrow, he offered to massage me first. At first I thought he was kidding around or just wanted to see me butt naked and spread out like yummy candy before his eyes but boy, was I wrong? Not only does Ryder have pretty magic fingers. He also knows exactly how to unknot my fucking tensed muscles just fine."Are you better now?" He question from right on top of me and I groan into the pillow before replying."Not yet. I'm going to need you to go a little lower and faster than that and work it some more"And just like I wanted, he added more of that coco scenting oil i got from Jasmine room into his palm and slap it to my flesh before his hands began to work their way down to the arch in my back and causing my eyes to roll all the way back when he made it to the exact spot I wanted."Yup. Right there babe. That's the fucking

*note: this chapter will be written in two point of views. First from Jaden's then Ryder's so take note.Jaden's POV.*The crowd erupt into a loud cheer as we sprint into the court, my eyes immediately scanning the bleachers for Ryder. My eyes caught sight of him among the last row and it's crazy how he is looking at me too. I held his gaze for another moment before refocusing on the task at hand.The clock was about to start ticking and the crowd was relentless in cheering us to victory. We went over the rules of the game with the referee before we took our positions. Before the ball get toss in the air, I clear my mind of every single noise and whisper as I focus more on the ball.For the next twelve minutes, give or take, the only thing that matters is getting this ball through that hoop as many times as possible.I look over to my right and Oliver seem to be mirroring my thought exactly. I allowed the cheers of the spectators wash over me and through me,fueling the adrenaline pum

Jaden's POV*Tonight is the day we all been training our butt off for. Winning tonight game can leave us with a future to look forward to, especially for people like me hoping to get a scholarship to college and loosing would mean looking for another means to survive through college but just like coach Mike said earlier. Loosing tonight game doesn't mean we are failures, it simply means we should put in more work and come back better but I doubt there would be another chance like this one for me.This is my last year of high school and also my only chance to make something out of it. My parent already did their best saving up enough money to carry us through highschool and even though Jasmine doesn't know it yet, we only have enough to send one of us to college and that's why I need this scholarship, that way Jasmine will have enough funds to go through college without stress.I only found out recently and telling her about it won't change anything
