Secret Revealed

This is the day that I am going to tell my friends that I am living with Reed. Saying that I am nervous would be an understatement. I am freaking out. What if they decide they don't want to be my friends anymore? What if they hate me for lying to them? What if…Suddenly two arms catch my shoulder to stop my pacing. I look into Reed's beautiful brown eyes.“Sparkle, pacing in the living room is not going to make you less nervous. Go take a shower and wait for your friends,” he tells me and pushes me to my room.I told my friends to come to her at 11 and gave them the address. It is currently 10:15, so I have time to shower. I grab a tie-dye hoodie and legging and head inside for a shower. After taking a shower, I come outside the bathroom and scream.“AHHHH,”AHHHHHHHHHHH," Noah also screams when I scream. I give him a deadpan look.“What? You startled me,” he tells me with a shrug.“Wha

April Fool's

Hehe, it is finally April fools day, the best day of my life, well after my birthday. So now I am doing what I am best at, PRANKS. It is 5:45 in the morning, and I am in Ryder’s bathroom applying nail polish to his soap with a grin on my face. After that, I add black hair dye to his shampoo. After that, I stick a fake cockroach on the inside of the lamp and tiptoe to Reed’s room. I do the same thing to his soap and shampoo and stick the fake cockroach, and I also place an airhorn behind his bathroom door and go back to my room. I facetime Keith and he picks up the call after 2 rings since it is only 7 in the evening. I burst out laughing, looking at his face. He is completely covered in glitter, his teeth are black in colour, and he is trying to remove gum from his hair. “Yeah, yeah, laugh all you want, Ara,” he mumbles. And I do, I keep laughing because Keith is a good prankster, and he is also c

My Birthday

“Pssh,” someone shakes my shoulder, trying to wake me up.“Keith, let me sleep,” I mumble and fall asleep again.“Pssh, Kiara, wake up,” someone whispers again. I ignore it, snuggle into the pillow and fall asleep again.“SPARKLE, I SWEAR TO GOD IF YOU DON’T WAKE UP NOW, I WILL EAT THE CAKE MYSELF,” someone shouts in my ear.WAIT, SPARKLE, CAKE? Keith doesn’t call me sparkle.I suddenly sit up, and I rub my eyes to adjust to the darkness.I see Reed and Ryder sitting on my bed with a cake in their hands. The cake is beautifully decorated, and there is a candle on the top with the number 17.“Happy birthday, sparkle,” Reed greets me with a smile. Birthday. It’s my birthday, and I am turning 17 today. A huge smile appears on my face.“Happy birthday, Kiara,” Ryder wishes me and gives me a hug and a kiss on the cheek.&ldq

Breaking His Walls

School is finally over. The last few days have been hectic with exams and all. Today is the last day of me being a junior. I am currently waiting for my friends at the parking lot.“Hey, Kiara,” Luke greets me.“Hey, Luke,” I greet him back, and soon Ava, Kate, and Noah join us.“So, guys, what are you doing this summer,” Ava asks everyone.“I forgot to tell you guys. I am going back to India,” I tell them excited.“What? But, we were all going to go to my beach house and spend the summer vacation,” Noah tells me with a pout.“When are you leaving?” Luke asks me“Tomorrow,” I tell him.“I planned a whole week of shopping for three of us for swimsuits and beach items,” Kate tells me.My eyes widen. Me and shopping. Oh please. I am not a girl who likes shopping. For six months I went shopping twice, and that was last year for Ch

Reed, Ryder, and I are currently on our way to the airport. Blake is out of town on a business trip, and Raven has gone to the hospital.We all shout the lyrics to the song and make occasional talk here and there. Soon we reach the airport, and I turn to them to say my goodbyes.Ryder hugs me, and I hug him back, placing my head on his. I am going to miss them so much.“Enjoy your holiday but be careful, okay. Go outside and play, and for goodness sake, don’t sit on your Xbox the whole day. Invite your new friends to your house. Keep an eye on your brother. He tends to be a little crazy sometimes, okay, bud,” I advise him, taking on a sister role. I consider Ryder as my little brother.“I will miss you, Kiara,” he tells me with a sniffle.“I will miss you too, Ryder. Take care,”“I love you, Ryder,” I tell him.“I love you too, Kiara,” we are acting like we are going to

Senior year

The two months in India flew by in a blink of an eye. The days consist of me pranking Keith and him taking revenge. We spent all our time together. Anna and Kei are going strong, and they might even be in love. We had a lot of sleepovers, we went to the beach, to the movies and it was spectacular.Reed and I stayed in contact, we talked a lot, and he sent me videos of him and Ryder playing at the beach. He would send me beautiful pictures of sunset and sunrise. My friends also had a great time at the beach house. We would all facetime a lot, and it felt like I was there with them.“I am going to miss you, Kiara,” Keith pouts, hugging me.“I will too, big bro, Oh and hold me a bit tighter, and I will go there in two pieces,” I tease him. He chuckles“These past two months were amazing. I got a girlfriend, I got to pull pranks, and the house seemed full,” he smiles.“I will be back in no time, Keith. You are

Following Andrew

“Buck buck buu buuuck,” Well, you all might be wondering what I am doing. I am chasing chickens right now. Yep, chickens. Let us rewind, shall we?FLASHBACKI am so excited because there is only one more period before lunch. I will give Andrew his new phone, and I cannot wait to see his reaction. Currently, Noah and I are sitting in math class, and the teacher is mumbling something about a quiz when suddenly we hear a noise.“Buck buck,” the whole class goes silent. Pin drop silence. I look at Noah, and he has a shocked expression on his face. And then again,“Buck buu buck,” I look to the corner of the class and see a chicken eating a chicken wing which we are supposed to get in the cafeteria today. Everyone is looking at the chicken with a shocked expression. Well, it is not every day you see a chicken eating a chicken. Someone screams outside,

Hiding Andrew

“Kiara,” someone knocks on my door. I open my eyes and look at the clock to see it is nearly 9. The person knocks on my door again, and I look at Andrew to see him sleeping soundly.I tiptoe to the door and open it in such a way that the person will not be able to see my bed. I see Reed waiting outside.“Sparkle, you missed dinner, you alright?” he asks me with concern.“Yeah, sorry. I was not feeling well after school so, I came home and slept,” I twist the story.“Shall I bring you dinner and some medicine?” he asks me, touching my forehead.“No thanks, I will come down in a minute,” I tell him and smile. He nods and goes downstairs. I close the door and go to the bathroom to change into a tank top and shorts and freshen up.I come outside and see Andrew still sleeping so, I go outside my room and lock it and take the key with me.I go downstairs and see everybody watching

My Secret Is Out

It is Monday, and Andrew and I are getting ready for school. I hid Andrew in the house for two whole days.  I am still scared that if he got found, Raven might not allow him to stay here. We wake up extra early to avoid seeing the family and go to school.We both go downstairs, and I immediately halt when I see Raven in the kitchen. Andrew bumps into me.“Kiara, why did you stop?” he hisses, and I look at him and put my finger on my mouth to tell him to shut up. I see him rubbing his nose, which is turning slightly pink. I sheepishly smile at him, and he rolls his eyes.“Raven is there in the kitchen,” I whisper to him. I tell Andrew to hide behind the couch while I greet her. When Raven is not looking, Andrew runs behind the couch.“Good morning, Raven,” I say, and she jumps, startled.“Kia, what are you doing up early?” she questions.“I have an important project to submit today fo

Teaching A Lesson

“Kiara, please. I am sorry for not standing up for myself,” Andrew begs. Raven called me after I reached home. She was silent the whole time while I blabbered,"Explain once I reach home," She said and cut the call. So I am a nervous wreck now. I called Keith and already got a lecture but, he also seemed proud. I smile when I remember what he told me.“I am proud of you, Kiara. Mom and dad would be too,” “But, don’t think that you are not in trouble,” he tells me, trying to glare at me but fails miserably since we both start laughing.“So, did you break her nose,” and that is how our conversation went.“Kiara, Kiara,” Andrew snaps his fingers. “Sorry,” I smile sheepishly. “Hey, you talked to me. Hallelujah,” Andrew smiles. Hey, I am supposed to be mad at him. I glare at him.“
