Eleanor's POV.

I was wrong. 

Henry was dead ass good in the game and he made it close to impossible to fail. It angered me that he was so good at everything and the way my heart fluttered excited when he knocked off every soldier from the stand made me realize he was also good at the whole playboy thing. 

I watched him excitedly as he knocked off the soldiers and when the last one fell, I scoffed in shock and he turned to me. He blew the tip of his gun as if it was smoking hot from shooting at the fake soldiers. 

"What are you saying about not winning again?" He asked and I rolled my eyes, unable to hide the smile that filled my face when he dusted off his jacket arrogantly. 

"Oh shut up, it's beginner's luck," I said, turning away from him as he laughed and placed the gun in my hand. 

"Ok then. Try it and

    Henry's POV.The image of Eleanor jumping against me flashed across my mind, and it didn't leave. Having her small frame pressed against me in the second had my mind running and setting me heart to beat at a thousand miles per second.I hadn't seen her genuinely smile since I had met her and having her do that just because of a simple game sent sparks through me.And in that moment, I felt sparks vibrate through me. I was the kind of guy to have everything calculated and planned but there were these strange emotions within me that were completely foreign.Then I had made the most stupid move by kissing the tip of her ears. I didn't even know what had compelled me to do that but I just found myself doing it and watching Eleanor blush like crazy made me smile too.There was something about that bright smile she wore, those innocent but fierce eyes that watched me with a silent underlying anger.

    Eleanor's POV.If there was anything I noticed it was that when I noticed a few guys checking me out, they immediately had that horrified look on their faces and then they looked in the other direction.It bothered me a little that they did that and for a moment, I wondered if maybe it was because I wasn't just beautiful enough up close.But as soon as I felt that, Henry said something really funny distracting my thoughts away from it and I was soon involved in the aura around us.I didn't know being in a park could be so much fun and after a series of playing different games, eating and laughing at the top of our lungs I suddenly grew tired.I yawned tiredly, as I checked the time to see it was a few minutes to ten. There was a rush of adrenaline in me and I breathed in the cool air surrounding us as if trying to take a p

    Eleanor's POV.When Henry's lips touched mine, at first, I froze completely. Then I pushed him away, making him stumble before catching himself."What the hell?!" I yelled at him, gaining a few attention from passersby and Henry laughed.He placed his hand over his stomach, as he sat back on the chair and continued laughing profusely.I stared at him confused and annoyed that he had done that, kissing me without my permission and then he was laughing! How annoying could he get?I hissed, eying him before walking away and I heard Henry chase after me, still laughing."Hey! Wait!" He yelled and I increased my speed as I walked to the exit of the park, ignoring the people who were looking at me and Henry inquisitively."Get lost!""Chill, it was a joke

    Chapter 25.Eleanor's POV."That asshole! Who does he think he is giving you his jacket like some sort of gentleman?" Henry said angrily, gripping my hand tighter and hurting my wrist."Henry-" I started to say and he turned to me, cutting me off rudely."Why would you accept clothing from someone you don't know?" He asked me, his blue eyes glaring daggers into my head."I didn't know it was him at first, I thought it was you." I said, surprised that he was angry at me for no reason at all."Well next time you should check. What if it was a pervert trying to kidnap you or something. You can't be this naive." He spat and I scoffed."I'm not naive! You're the one being a jerk here!" I yelled at him, snatching my hand back forcefully and the ice-creams dropped, splattering on the floor.My eyes filled with tears at the tiny bruise on my wrist and the fallen ice-cream, but worst of all because of the way Henry had yelle

    Henry's POV.I couldn't sleep that night. I stood outside my room balcony and took out a cigarette from my room and lit it.I barely smoked but on days like this when I couldn't sleep and I had a thousand thoughts running through my mind, I smoked.It was bad for my health. I knew that, but it did little to ease my anxiety and calm my thoughts. I puffed out the smoke, leaning against the wall and I admired the night sky.Memories of the night flashed across my mind and it started from when I had kissed Eleanor. Watching her talk about greek whatever, made me really observe her lips. They were small and pink even though she hadn't applied any lipstick to enhance them.I noticed how beautiful she was even without any make up and while I zoned out on whatever she was saying, I suddenly had the urge to kiss her.Of course, it had

    Eleanor's POV.Today at school Henry was back to his normal annoying self as he sat beside me before history class."Why do you keep yawning?" I asked him as he wiped his tired eyes with the bags in them before smiling at me."I was thinking about you," He said and I scoffed, taking my history note in my bag to revise before the teacher comes.I hadn't gotten enough sleep either, when I got home last night my mom had been waiting for me in the sitting room. Her intense eyes were glaring at me as I closed the door, startled that she had arrived home before I did.Then I received a lecture that I could teach for four years and I was grounded for the rest of the today's evening."Sorry about that, I should have covered up for you," Annie said when she came out of her room that night, feeling remorseful.I scoffed.

    Chapter Twenty-Eight.Henry's POV."Mr Fred, please can you come forward and solve the equation on the board?" The maths teacher called from the front of the classroom. It was a really young woman, maybe in her early thirties. She had a stern look on her face with freckles just beneath her glasses. She wore a black fitted skirt and black flats.Being called to the board to solve equations was the most annoying thing ever. It was like the teacher knew you couldn't do it but they just have the urge to embarrass students.I looked up from my note that was filled with drawings of a bike. I groaned inside my eyes, noticing a movement. Eleanor sat I'm the first row as usual, eyes glittering under the white light. She was wearing a floral green gown and a beanie. I don't like the beanie because it hides her beautiful hair.Focus idiot! You're being called to the board!&nbs

    Eleanor's POV.I groaned, standing up from my seat and I stretched my arms. The last class for the day was finally over and I couldn't wait to get home."Hey Eleanor, can I borrow your Algebra note?" A curly brown haired boy with a little too big glasses. He was in my class and I saw him a few times."Yeah. But you have to return it tomorrow." I said, pulling out my Algebra note from my bag before handing it to him.He took it from me as students passed by talking about the game that was coming up in two weeks.I sighed, I had swimming lessons today too. Rubbing my head I started to leave the class when the guy I had given my note to stopped me."Hi, uhm.." He stammered, pulling up his glasses to his nose as he glanced around nervously.He was cute in a way and his hair curled around his forehead, he was tall too but his dressing was off. A baggy sweatshirt and a pale blue shirt, his skinny frame

    Four weeks LaterEleanor P.O.VIt had been four weeks of my encounter with Henry and to say I have moved on was an understatement, I made sure I had nothing to do with him. Everytime he tried to approach me in school, I avoided him at all cost.When I told Tina about the entire situation, she felt remorseful for me. I regret not listening to Tina when I had the opportunity to.The final of the competition was tomorrow and apparently, my school had made it to the final to square of against the West High school. The final had been the major topic for discussion and I was glad about it. When the rumour of Henry and I not being together reached the ears of every student in the school, most girls were happy about it. Apparently, Jane had taken her time to make sure to give out a fabricated story about how Henry and I stopped talking and she made it looked like I was the gold digger. Despite the fact that I wasn't surprised about Jane's lies

    Eleanor P.O.VThe following day in school, it was lunch time and I decided to invest my time into reading some new fantasy novels when I felt someone's presence."Nice book you got there, the only problem is, it isn't as interesting as you would ever be" Yes, you guessed right, the flower girl leader Jane was seated on the same table with me and this time, she was not with her minions."I am trying to read here please" I replied politely hoping she would leave me alone."So I don't need to ask about the rumours going round that Henry and you are dating. Apparently, from how i see it, the rumours are true. Especially seeing how he reacted to your presence in the last games" I began to wonder what and where she was driving at with this conversation."Do you really think Henry loves you?" She asked. I dropped my book and looked at her for a minute."Look, talk all you want, but the truth remains that you are only jealous about thi

    Henry P.O.V"The strange man took me up to my rooms and closed the door behind me. I was confused and scared for a moment. What was he trying to do? I thought to myself and then i watched as he turned around and gave me one of the most sinister and sadistic smiles I have ever seen in my life.He brought out his belt and flogged the hell out of me. That day would forever be in my memory, I was only nine and I was physically abused by a stranger.The worst part of the entire scenario was the fact that my mom was standing at the door watching the entire time, unfazed by what happened"Flash back endedI was all emotional at this point but I didn't need to allow Eleanor see those emotions. I don't want to be considered weak because I am never weak and will never be.Eleanor P.O.VThough he would deny it, I could see the pain in Henry's eyes as he spoke. This guy had so many untold emotions at the moment just by staring at his eyes and it

    Eleanor P.O.VIt wasn't till I checked the clock that I got conscious of the fact that I had been watching all of the Jimmy Fallon's show till late at night. The show itself was just captivating to watch, with the series of interviews from various celebrity. My favorite had to be the interview with Kevin Hart. Getting up from the couch, I stretched myself and decided to go sleep. Maybe Henry wouldn't be coming over like he said he would. Even though I would not admit to him, Henry's presence always made me feel warm.Passing through the rooms, I heard loud moaning and I don't know why I had to stop to check the room it was coming from. Mother wasn't around and my dad happened to have been away for close to three months.Apparently, the moaning was coming from Annie's room. Typical Annie and having sex without regard for sensitive people like me.I was about going till I heard a rather familiar voice and I decided to eavesdrop on the co

    Eleanor P.O.VThe second half came by and Ryder was still where he was; seated beside me and though we haven't spoken since the exchange of intense glance between Ryder and Henry, one thing was evident in hia new facial reaction, he was definitely in deep thought."Okay, I think I need to address something real quick, are you really that much of a stalker" His words took me by surprise, I wasn't expecting him to speak while his gaze fixated somewhere else. He may possibly have a sharp Peripheral vision then, I concluded to myself."Secondly I don't remember you being dumb, so why aren't you talking" He asked, this time his eyes turned to look at me and I cowered in fear."Uhmm....... nothing" I said, simply scratching the back of my hair. He was about saying something when the entire crowd cheered upon seeing the faces of the team and i was forced to check for Henry.Something strange about Henry's new countenance; he seemed really fo

    Henry's P.O.VThe opening game was here and I couldn't be more ready than I could be at the moment. Fixing up my boots at the locker room, Coach head in and from his face, I could tell he was fully ready himself. Everyone were gathering up their spots kit and surprisingly George had arrived late, causing Coach to tell at him."Alright everyone, listen up real quick" I fixed the lace of my boots and looked up at the coach, same as the rest of the squad."The day we have all been waiting for has arrived. Now I know many of you are nervous for the first game and indeed I gotta admit, it's only natural for every player. I need y'all to know that what ia necessary to win isn't about the strategies you are seeing here nor my ability to quickly make in good tactics. Those are just mere words and though it is part of the substance for the games, it doesn't necessarily encapsulate your ability to win the game. Last year finals was a disaster and though I ca

    Eleanor's POV.The end of the week came quicker than I expected with everything that's been going on with Henry, I had a new feeling that was brewing inside of me.Things with Tina weren't all that great either, she still hadn't spoken to me since the day at the boys locker room and while I wanted to be the first to say hello when we met at the lockers, I was constantly reminded of what she had said and I still felt hurt."Hey, are you coming for my game tonight?" Henry asked me as we walked into school together and I shook my head.In all honesty, I wanted to be there for Henry at his game but I didn't want him to know I was excited about it and thinking of going to support him so I decided to act all though and uninterested when I was actually excited inside."Why? Orange High is a good competitor, not as great as us but they are able to give us a good time. A

    Henry's POV.When I got home, a feeling of dread came over me and I pulled my bike to a stop parking just outside my home.It was dark inside and lonely. A part of me wanted to run away and back to Eleanor's house but I knew it would make me seem like a little bitch so I took off my helmet and walked towards the porch.I pulled open the door and I was met with darkness, the sweet scent of air freshener filled my nose and I knew the cleaning lady had arrived just this evening after I left.I didn't bother putting on the lights as I was used to coming home to the darkness so I just navigated through the stairs and into my room, slamming the door shut behind me.Throwing my bag on the floor, I took of my jacket and fell on my bed, closing my eyes as I reimagined Eleanor's face in my head.I've never felt

It was like she was a whole new person and I found myself drawn to her.Originally, I had wanted to kiss her earlier because she was looking so beautiful underneath me but right now, I wanted to kiss her because of the person she was.She was beautiful no doubt, but at the same time I could see how beautiful she was inside too. She was caring, thoughtful and very smart too.It's been a while since any one had done anything for me, even while I was a child and my mother would leave me alo
