Chapter 11

Chapter 11Jane's POVOlivia got to the cinema before me, and was seated already, when I strode in casually. My eyes scan for a perfect position."Over here," a female voice called out. I looked in its direction and saw her seated at the far end of the room, clutching firmly to a pack of popcorn and a bottle of drink.I shuttled quickly towards her, a grin plastered on my face. "You seem very pumped about tonight. What's so special about this movie? I know you are not a big fan, anyway."Olivia smiled, but said nothing. "Sit," she finally said. And showed me a spot next to her. "There's so much I need to tell you, but that'll be after the movie."I locked my eyes in hers, and wore a questioning look. "Hm," I blurted. "I guess I can wait till then." As I was about to settle down, my eyes caught a disturbing figure. He had seemed to walk past us quite quickly, I couldn't say for sure if my eyes had seen correctly. Deciding not to burden myself with thoughts of him, I turned to Olivia. "

Chapter 12

Chapter 12Jane's POV"You're evil!" Nothing else could come from my lips, other than those words. "You're a hypocrite, in fact. And you love to play the innocent one. Olivia, you cannot deny the fact that I like Adrian. Are you claiming you don't know? He's all over you and you're letting him..." I had more to say, but her calm voice interrupted. And tears had choked me so much, I paused to swallow. Using my face towel to dab on my face."Jane!" She was not upset by any of what I had said, which was proof that she was guilty. And if she was upset, she hid it. She was probably getting ready to tell me lies."What?" I yelled in response, cleaning off the tears that escaped. "Drop me here, Olivia. I'm so done with this conversation. And with you. Please stop this car, I'm alighting here.""Jane, those messages are not from Adrian." She was still calm as she spoke, smiling through the fight. "Check the photo on the profile, that's not Adrian's, or is it?"I checked the guy's display phot

Chapter 13

Chapter 13 Adrian's POV I slung my Nike backpack over my shoulder, the familiar swoosh logo glaring back at me. Ready to hit the basketball court, which is also my sanctuary from this chaos, I went towards the dining room, expecting solitude. The door, slightly open, creaked as I pushed it wider, revealing Jane engrossed in her books. My eyes narrowed, irritation bubbling beneath the surface. "Jane, seriously? Why can't you study in your own room?" She looked up, eyes kind of dim, her sweatshirt slightly rumpled. "I need a quiet place, and your room is never quiet." I scoffed, glancing around the room adorned with white furniture. "Whatever. Just don't get in my way." She met my hostility with a smirk, her MacBook open beside her. "Not everyone can afford the luxury of a personal basketball court, Adrian." My fists clenched, suppressing the anger. "Don't act like you know anything about me." She sighed, closing her Classics book. "Adrian, we're…we're family now. Maybe it's t

Chapter 14

Chapter 14Adrian's POV The familiar path to the locker room welcomed me, the echoes of the court slowly fading as I entered the cool, dark space. Then I put on the light As I changed out of my basketball gear, thoughts of both the upcoming state championship and the impending movie night with Olive danced through my mind.As I finished freshening up in the locker room, the lingering scent of sweat was replaced by a clean, nice feeling,then one of my teammates, Mike, appeared at the entrance."Adrian, Coach Nick needs to see you. Urgently," Mike said, his expression carrying a sense of urgency that mirrored the gravity of his message.I furrowed my brow, confusion settling in. "Coach Nick? What's it about? Where does he want to see me?"Mike, seemingly unaware of the details, could only offer a shrug. "I don't know, man. He just said it's urgent. Better head over there quickly."I grabbed a towel to dry off the last remnants of sweat, a sense of curiosity mixing with the urgency in

Chapter 15

Jane's POV "Hey Ollie, whatcha doin'?" I asked in a voice very calm. I had been sleeping before Adrian's video game woke me up. Honestly, I find it annoying that I have to share a room not far from his. Then I remembered that I still had a little argument with Ollie so I decided to call her to clear things up.There was a pause before Olive's voice came through the phone, "Oh, hey Jane. Just left Steve's place. We're working on physics for the AP test."I raised an eyebrow, surprised by the sudden turn of events. "Physics? Since when did you become Steve's personal physics tutor?"Olive chuckled on the other end. "Well, he asked for my help. Apparently, I'm the physics guru, and you know I can't resist helping someone in need."I couldn't help but roll my eyes at Olive's self-proclaimed title. "Physics guru? Really, Olive? Anyway, why didn't you tell me you were heading to Steve's?" "Urm… where's this coming from, Jay? Remember you were the one calling me all sorts of names the last

Chapter 16

Jane's POV"That must have been an awful experience for you dear." Ollie said, raising her voice again.I didn't want people around us hearing her so I shouted at her to keep it low. "You're speaking too loud." I warned her. Ollie nodded, acknowledging my concern, and we moved closer to our lockers to discuss the events of the previous night. "He was that rude? Seriously, Jane, you should report him or something," Ollie suggested, her voice still tinged with shock.I sighed, leaning against my locker. "Reporting him won't change anything. Adrian has been like this for as long as I can remember. It's just something I have to deal with."Ollie furrowed her brows, "But it's not fair! No one should treat you like that, especially not in your own home." She whispered the last words, opening her eyes wide.I appreciated Ollie's concern, but the complexity of my relationship with Adrian went beyond simple solutions. "It's complicated, Ollie. He's my stepbrother now, and no matter how much

Chapter 17

Olive's POV "Hey my personal physics tutor." Steve's voice came through over the phone, sending shivers to my spine. I chuckled, attempting to hide the flowery feeling in my stomach. "Your personal physics tutor, huh? I guess you're ready for an enlightening session."Steve's laughter echoed through the phone, his playful tone reaching into my ears like music. "Enlightening is an understatement. You make physics sound like a thrilling adventure."A smile tugged at my lips, but beneath it was me being pretty careful about how I let his words hit ne. Steve was undeniably charming, a popular guy known for his basketball ability but, their was a but.My heart had been down that road before, and I wasn't eager to let it take another beating."Hey, how about we continue this in person? I could use a break from the textbooks," Steve suggested, his voice carrying a hint of excitement.I hesitated for a moment, contemplating how to decline without revealing too much. "I'd love to, Steve, b

chapter 18

Ollie's POV"I forgot to read the material Jay. I forgot." Whispering it as the tears almost came down.Jane placed her hands on my back and said almost with a hint of worry and disappointment, "Why didn't you read the material?"I muttered, "I forgot to pick it up. I'm so done for."Then the teacher saw us. "What's going on there? Jane, why are your hands on Olive and why's her head on her table?" "I'm sick." I lied. But honestly, I didn't. I was nervous like shit and I needed space. It's the same as sickness only this time I needed time alone and not in the clinic.So I stood up and left the class without waiting for the teacher or Jane to say a word. As I left the class, I could feel the teacher's gaze and Jane's concerned eyes following me. I needed space, needed to breathe away from the pressure and my own overwhelming disappointment. So, I headed straight to the library.In the quiet of the library, I found an empty corner, allowing myself a moment to let out the pent-up emo

chapter 19

Adrian's POV "Hey, Coach. You got a minute?" I approached Coach Nick at the basketball court, my mind burdened with the weight of some priorities.Coach Nick looked up from his clipboard, a scrutinizing look in his eyes. "Sure, Adrian. What's on your mind?"I took a deep breath. "Coach, I've got some assignments and tutoring at home today. I was wondering if I could skip today's training session."Coach Nick leaned back, assessing my request with a stern expression. "Adrian, I'm thrilled that you're taking your academics seriously. It's important. But you know I can't tolerate indiscipline. Skipping training can't become a habit."I nodded, understanding the coach's perspective. "I get that, Coach. It's just a one-time thing. I'll make up for it."He sighed, a hint of disappointment in his voice. "Adrian, I want you to succeed both academically and on the court. But you need to find a balance. Your commitment to the team is crucial, especially now. We have four more games to win to m

Chapter 20

Chapter 20Jane's POV "You may take your textbooks out." I told Adrian.I cleared my throat, trying to focus on the task at hand. But it was difficult, because around Adrian, I felt like a bag of mixed emotions. It's like standing straight like my hair right there, unsure where to settle. His presence made my heart do funny things, like butterflies were having a party in my stomach.He wore this black T-shirt, kinda cute, showing off his muscles. It made me wonder if the shirt was conspiring with his body to make my thoughts a mess. His jeans, casual but cool, added a touch of that "I don't care, but I do" vibe. The simplicity in his dressing oddly contrasted with the chaos he brought into my world.Like, what is going on exactly?His hair, a bit messy but in a way that looked deliberate, like he just stepped out of a movie scene. Some water droplets clung to his hair, and I knew it was because he just had a recent shower. It felt like I was observing a scene from a teen romanc
