บททั้งหมดของ Escaping The World: Lost in Book (book 1): บทที่ 1 - บทที่ 10

Aidan I cannot take it anymore. Sitting in Physics and my mind keeps racing. No matter how much I try to pay attention to Mrs Kingsley and her speech on intermolecular forces, I just can't do it. My mind keeps fixating on the biggest problem in my life… will my dad walk away from his illness in this life or the next? "Dude are you okay?" Jared leans over to check in, Maybe it's because I’m radiating stress or maybe it's because I’m tapping foot and seesawing my pen like crazy. "Ja, I'm fine." I reply with out tearing my eyes from the clock. 40 more minutes. 40 minutes. Just 40 more… I soot my hand up. "Mrs Kingsley can I please go get some fresh air."Mrs Kingsley turns from the board and looks at me with understanding."Sure hun. Take all the time you need." I grabs my bag, run out of the classroom, down the empty hall and burst out of the doors leading to the front steps. Without thinking I dig in my bag and grab t

"Trynna Escape the world too?" Such an arbitrary thing to say and yet it just tumbled out of my mouth. His chocolate brown eyes latch onto mine and he refuses to let go. It’s almost as if he’s searching for something in my eyes. Then just as suddenly as he latched on, he looks away. He takes a deep breath and runs his hand though his hair while raising the bottle in defeat. "Something like that. And you?" He doesn’t look me in the eye as he speaks. "Something like that." I repeat. "However, I find it best not too run to the bottom of a bottle." This is not my place, let it go! But he’s the one to keep it going this time. "And I find it best not to chain myself to someone else's world." He retorts. "Fair enough." I say and carry on with my reading, twirling my pencil in my fingers until I need it. I thought that would be the end of this strange encounter but Aidan had other plans. He stared down at my book.

Aidan I sit patiently in the library for the girl from the gardens and hope she arrives. I have no idea what happened back there. What she read, it touched me. It was like no drug I have ever had and I want more. There was something about her too. She was mysterious and cunning but not in a bad way. The kind of person I didn't feel weird crying in front of. Why did I cry? That's not like me. I keep glancing from the door to the clock, hoping and praying she'll come. I catch her sweet voice laughing in the corridor. As she rounds the corner her head is tipped back and her gorgeous lips parted in a huge smile as she laughs. She waves goodbye to whoever she's talking too and enters the room. Even in this light she is stunning. Her golden tanned skin glows in the dingy library lights. Her light brown hair with sun kissed streaks and one pink strip is pulled into a braid and I want nothing more than to just know her name. I lock onto her navy blue eyes.

'It never fades away, it's staying Your kiss like broken glass on my skinAnd all the greatest loves end in violenceIt's tearing up my voice, left in silence'A knock at the door interrupts my slow dance with my dad. He twirls me and sends me giggling to the door. There's another hard knock. "I'm coming, I'm coming. Keep your knickers on." I shout and open the door. My gigglely state is replaced by shock. "Aidan? What are you doing here?" "Danika Giovanni." He says. "Who's at the door, hun?" My dad shouts. Aidan looks past me and into the house. A growl escaping his lips. What was that? "Just a friend from school dad." I say and pull the door closed behind me. I pull Aidan back down the driveway and back to his car. "Why are you here Aidan? How do you know where I live?" I cross my arms over my chest against the cold. He steps so close to me. "Because, Danika Giovanni, you owe m

The party is packed when we arrive. Ben, being the captain, is hosting. Ben loves 2000/early 2010 music so Hey Mama is blasting when we arrived. We walk past all the people on his front lawn and into the back/party central. Jared kisses my cheek before breaking off into the crowd. It’s so dark and so many smells I don’t know who’s who so I grab a bottle off the drinks tabled and started dancing in the middle of the make shift dance floor. 'Rub him downBe a lady and a freak' I love this song. I dance my heart out. Someone comes up behind me and we start dancing together. His hands roamed up and down my side. I move my hips to the music against his every growing excitement. He turns me around and pulls me against his chest, his hands firmly on my hips. His scent hits me hard and I look up to find none other than Dominic Grey. Nick and I had a strange friendship. We always flirt with each other but nothing ever comes of it. To
