All Chapters of NOT SORRY I WANT YOU BACK: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

"Why were you running earlier?" Adrian wanted to ask but focused on something else, the beauty before him, she swept living breath out of him when he first stepped into the room. She wore a white silk resting cloth that left no room for exposed feet. He had asked his house help Emma to change her clothes into something comfortable because he doubted she would sleep well in such big clothes. Although the dress was very long and covered her feet, he knew her feet were bare and he found that attractive. Her beautiful brown-red hair, scattered beautifully around her face and down her shoulders, looked like rubies in the dim light that shone through the window. Her skin looked silky and he wondered if it'd feel the same under his palms, but it was just a wandering thought, he could see her cherry-red lips part, from where he stood and he wanted to stand next to her.Then, like a child's dream, a little bird flew to her and perched atop her head, the curtains swirled with the soft breeze

It was days after the incident and nothing seemed to change so she only squeezed deeper into her small shell and tried her best to be invisible. If it worked.She was always the first to leave a class and would she go straight to her usual place before everyone was out in the halls. Just like every other day, she sat in the old and forgotten library.Although it could no longer be called a library because of the lack of amenities, little to no furniture, and no presence, she could still perceive the smell of old books, and old wood and anyone could feel the emptiness of it from afar. Which was why she chose this spot, plus no student in their right senses would choose to hang out there. Except for her, of course.Placing her chin on her knees, she read a book, 'Unexpected Blessings' by Taylor Barbra. Not her kind of book, but she'd found the not-so-old book covered in dust in the very library she sat in, although the book had some pages torn out of it, she was more than enjoying it

At home, Adrian sat alone thoughts of her evading his mind again. What was the use of fighting someone who couldn't defend themselves? Even if you defeated them there was no pride in that. Secondly, the girl just didn't deserve all the stress, she deserved to be happy. He didn't have a third reason, except that he felt the need to be there for her when no one else was, he loved the feeling of her leaning on him.He stretched his clamp muscles, which were beginning to ache due to his sitting posture. He thought of how shy and pretty she was, her beautiful eyes, so innocent. Just then he had an idea, then he dug into his pockets and took out one of his iPhones.He unlocked it and dialed, seconds later her sweet voice whispered a small "hello". He let out a sigh, her mare voice played tricks on his senses and his hormones, something he wouldn't advise anyone to tamper with. He had almost forgotten she was still on the line, she whispered another "hello" more shakily and he knew she mus

She thought she was ready for it, but how wrong she was. Nothing in this world would have prepared her for it. Absolutely nothing. She wasn't surprised to see students who were in attendance or surprised to see April in the front standing with pride with her triumphant dirty smirk or that there were posters of her most embarrassing moments pasted everywhere It was horrible. That day at the library when Adrian pushed her down. The camera caught her perfectly.They had like, slut and Wanna be written all over the photos and a poster said "Just die already! Christ, her heart broke into a billion pieces and the air left her lungs when she saw her teddy koala bear torn into wicked shreds, everywhere.She knew that bear, it belonged to her. It was Mum's gift to her on her eighth birthday. Jan had fallen dreadfully ill that day so Jade hadn't expected any celebrations, both her parents had left her under the care of a nurse, Miss Rosa a widowed woman in her late thirties to watch over her.

That night, he kept steering in the bed like a kid, the distance between them was more than he liked. Instead of snuggling with him, she held on tight to the damn pillow like her life depended on it, and he desperately wanted to replace the pillow . He glared at the damn thing and wished it would just vanish then his little angel would have no choice but to run into his waiting arms. Adrian hated the fact that he had to fight for attention with a mare pillow and he wasn't going to let it win, he tugged the pillow away from her, and half expected her to wake up and ask for the annoying pillow but she didn't wake.Instead, she reached out in her sleep, and in her attempt to pull back her missing pillow, she pulled him in instead. Just what he wanted. He got his chance. He drew closer to her and her hands wrapped them tight around him, the scent of her hair enveloped him.Damn, he was stupid, he couldn't wipe that silly smile off his face, he let out a satisfied sigh and internally pat
