All Chapters of PIECES OF MY PAST.: Chapter 1 - Chapter 6

"Happy birthday, Isles." A low whisper dragged me out of sleep and I opened my heavy eyelids almost immediately. I was taken aback by the abrupt splash of sunlight filtering through the room and blinked several times to adapt to the sudden brightness. It was too bright for my liking. My eyes finally grew accustomed to the light and sought the source of the voice. A small smile formed on my lips when I saw Kayden peering down at me,his hands on either side of my body. "What time is it?" I groaned as I slowly peeled the sheets from my numb body. I felt exhausted —not ready to meet the world. "It's still early." He answered,his unyielding ebony eyes still on me. "We have an hour and a half before our shift starts. In the meantime, let's celebrate your birthday!" He squealed and I laughed at his ridiculous reaction. "Oh,shut it. You know I hate birthdays." I pointed out with a groan. I looked up at his handsome face and he smiled faintly at me while p

"Shit. Shit. Shit." Kayden muttered under his breath while slowly getting up. "I'm so sorry Isles.. I.. we didn't know you were coming." "You didn't know I was coming?" I asked him in utter dismay while looking at each one of them. He looked so embarrassed and I nearly felt sorry for him. "No.. I mean,y- yes." He stuttered.

I blurted out but I remembered I didn't exactly hit the send button. "Yeah.. right. I typed the message but didn't send it." I sighed and shifted my weight on my left foot. "We are sorry, Isles. You shouldn't have seen this.. it won't happen again I promise." He reached for my hand but I took a step back. "Ew,dude. Don't touch me." I grimaced. "I think you would want to sanitize your hands and rinse that mouth before coming any closer." I whispered for his ears only and he lau

My heart hummered loudly in my chest as Colton inched closer,his intense gaze on me. I gulped involuntarily. He softly pinned me against the wall and my eyes shuttered close. I gulped again and flickered my eyes open. Colton was uncomfortably close that I could almost feel his toned body against me. 'Is he going to kiss me?' I thought and my heart skipped a beat. His warm breath was fanning my face and I sucked my lower lip,an action that didn't go undetected. If anything, his gaze darkened  and an unfamiliar emotion invaded his eyes. He trailed his eyes down slowly burning into every inch of me, making my stomach clench. "Colton.." I whispered stepping back but I realized my back was against the wall. "Wh- what are you doing?" My breathing shallowed at our close proximity,the air around us becoming thick. "Shhhh." He placed his forefinger on my trembling lips and cocked his head sideways. At first I didn't see anything sinister in the busy street but on
