All Chapters of Falling for my Dad’s Best Friend : Chapter 11 - Chapter 18

I stood there, staring at my phone in disbelief, my heart racing so fast I thought I might pass out. I was shaking, my palms sweaty as I tried to make sense of the threat. I barely had time to process it when the bathroom door swung open, and Jenny walked in, her carefree smile lighting up the room.“Hey, I’m gonna grab some alcohol from the living room. What do you want?” she asked, her voice full of excitement.I could feel my face burning up, the anxiety building inside me like a dam about to burst. “Uh, I’ll just have a beer,” I stammered, trying to play it cool.Jenny raised an eyebrow at me, clearly unimpressed with my choice. “Nonsense, girl. You need something stronger. Vodka it is.”Before I could protest, my phone rang again. My heart stopped for a second as I glanced down at the screen, the unknown number flashing once more.“I… I really need to take this,” I muttered, trying to keep my voice steady.Jenny, thankfully, just shrugged. “No problem, I’ll be back with your dr

As Vanessa stood in the doorway, her eyes pleading with me, I could hardly find the words. "Uh, of course you can stay," I stammered, stepping aside to let her in. The moment she crossed the door, it felt like everything shifted. The air was thick with unspoken tension, and I knew deep down that things were about to change.She closed the door behind her, her gaze steady on me. "I'm tired of pretending I don't want you," she said, her voice low and intense.It sent shivers down my spine. "I want you so bad, Antonio. It's eating me up inside." I swallowed hard, feeling my heart race."You're just saying that because you're drunk," I shot back, trying to keep my voice steady, trying to convince myself of that.She stepped closer, her eyes narrowing as she shook her head. "Stop pretending you don't see it. You feel it too."The weight of her words hit me like a train. My mind was racing, caught in a whirlwind of desire and the reality of my situation. I reached out, placing my hand on

As Mr. Ruben’s twisted words sank in, I felt disgust churn in my stomach. I took a shaky step back, my fists clenched as I tried to keep my voice from trembling.“You’re disgusting,” I spat, feeling the heat rise in my cheeks. My heart was pounding, and I could barely think straight.Mr. Ruben’s face twisted into a scowl. “Keep your voice down,” he hissed, looking around the empty classroom. “Do you want the whole campus to hear?”I took a deep breath, glaring at him. “I don’t care who hears. You’re a creep.”Turning on my heel, I stormed out of the classroom. But before I could make it to the door, his voice echoed after me, cold and threatening. “You’ll regret this, Vanessa. I’ll make sure you never pass my class.”Ignoring him, I pushed the door open and broke into a fast walk down the hallway. The further I got from that room, the better I could breathe. My legs felt like they were moving on autopilot as I headed for the parking lot, desperate to get away.Just as I turned the c

I woke up in an unfamiliar room that the walls were painted dull gray, with a harsh light shining through the bars.My head felt heavy, like a fog was still lingering from last night. As I rubbed my eyes and sat up, I noticed Cesar sitting right next to me, smirking.“You slept like a log,” he said, that cocky grin of his never wavering.I blinked, feeling a little dazed. “Where… where are we?”He chuckled, leaning back in his seat, his eyes twinkling with mischief. “You don’t remember? Police came last night.”Bits and pieces of the chaos started to float back into my mind: the cops bursting in, everyone screaming and running. I closed my eyes, groaning. “Yeah… I remember now,” I muttered.I shifted uncomfortably, trying to piece everything together. “But why did they arrest us?”“Noise pollution or something,” Cesar replied with a shrug. “Apparently, some of the neighbors weren’t fans of the party. So, here we are, waiting for someone to bail us out.”I let out a sigh, feeling the
