CHAPTER 19
Christian's POV
Soon Makaila got back on her feet, tho with a little limping. While Rita was still checking with her parents if Makaila could live with them, I asked her to live with me. She firstly declined because of Bethany.
Though I tried to assure Makaila that Bethany wasn't a threat, I felt that she was going to be, especially after the episode of last time. Makaila agreed anyway.
To avoid suspicion, Nigel would come every morning to pick her up. Not that it mattered because Bethany has started avoiding me, hanging out with the cheerleaders and the team. Tyler and the guys were also avoiding me.
Football season wasn't close by so I didn't have to face them at practice. Let's not forget Jackson. I've been keeping my eyes out for him but he didn't seem to be doing anything bad at the point. That even made it sketchier. I became really protective of Makaila. Nigel as well.

Makaila's POV"How are you not an Art Major? You are really good at literature." Jackson said and I let out a light chuckle. We were taking a break from study and Jackson went us to get something to eat from Starbucks. I told him not to, but he insisted. "I am just doing it for extra credit. I'm working towards getting a scholarship to study at a very good university." I stated and he nodded in understanding. "Plus, it was either this or AP government. I hate government." I added and he laughed. "Yeah, I hate government as well." He said and I chuckled, putting one French fries in my mouth and chewing on it. I could feel him watching me but I didn't look at him. "You know it's impolite to stare." I told him, still not looking at him. I heard him chuckle. "I'm just trying to figure you out, Makaila. You still haven't told me about you." He folded his hands across his ch

Christian's POVRecap"Okay. Your turn." She said and I chuckled. "Okay, hit me." I told her and she feigned a thoughtful face for a moment. Suddenly she dropped a bomb on me. "Tell me about you and Jackson's history." She deadpan, leaving me awestruck. ______________________________________I didn't move. I was so dumbfounded by Makaila's question and I blamed myself for not thinking she would ask that question. Makaila was smart, very smart actually. I can't just tell her to stay away from someone and then the person goes erratic today and I wouldn't tell her why. She deserved to know anyway. She was already in the middle of it. But it was so hard. "Christian." Her soft, velvety voice jerked me out of my reverie and I looked at her. "I wa

Makaila's POV"Holy shit!" Rita exclaimed as soon as I told her about the kiss. Knowing Rita she would probably scream it out of the whole school to hear so I quickly palmed her mouth to muffle her scream of excitement. "Keep your voice down Rita. You want the whole school to hear you? They would have my head." I hissed at her. "I'm so sorry. I am just so excited. Finally, my prayers have being answered." She let out a dramatic sigh of relief and I rolled my eyes at her, trying to stop the smile from spreading on my lips. "Why are you so dramatic? For all I know it was just a kiss, nothing more." I acted like it was a normal stuff. But it certainly wasn't a normal thing. I mean, I just got my first kiss, from the guy I am falling for. "Was it? Was it really?" Rita raised an eyebrow at me. Okay, it wasn't a Normal kiss. It was fantastic. Christian is a fantastic kisser
MAKAILA CHAPTER 23
Christian's POV"How the hell did he know that Makaila stays in your house?!" Nigel snapped as soon as I told him what went down with Jackson. I shrugged, still shocked and baffled."I have absolutely no clue." I replied, running my fingers through my hair. "He just said it like he knew my biggest secret." I added and Nigel scoffed."Well basically, it is your biggest secret. That and the fact that you are actually falling for Makaila." I looked at him, a new found shock written all over my face. He scoffed again and folded his hands across his chest."Don't give me that look, lover boy. I see the way you look at her, even a blind man can see the way you look at her. You are falling for her." He smirked and I rubbed the back of my neck nervously."Why do you make it sound like it's such a bad thing to fall for Makaila." I asked him but he shook his head."No, I am not saying it like it's such a bad thing." He clarified and I nodded. "It's a good thing, a really good thing. I'm actually
MAKAILA CHAPTER 24
Christian's POVI haven't been the same since Makaila left. I've tried reaching across to her, at least to talk to her and explain myself but she avoided me like I was a plague. It was frustrating. The worst part of it all was that Bethany had succeeded in latching herself on to me like a leech and I had no way of telling her off. It was then I began to see what Makaila had been talking about.Even though I had absolutely no feelings for Bethany, I'll still choose her over everything.And that was a terrible thing.Something I needed to stop desperately.Nigel and Rita were also giving me attitude, especially Rita. She was going really extra about it and it was scary to bits. Jackson wouldn't stop looking at me with a certain sardonic smirk on his lips and though I tried to act nonchalant about it, I had a terrible feelin
MAKAILA CHAPTER 25
Makaila's POVI couldn't stop thinking about the little moment Christian and I had at Nigel's house, in my room. I still couldn't believe that Christian had confessed that he was in love with me, after everything that happened between us. After that day, I became even more confused and I didn't know what to make of the entire situation.I barely saw him at school. He didn't sit with his team mates in the cafeteria and the classes we shared together, I barely saw him there. It was pretty frustrating. I wanted us to talk. No, I needed us to talk. We needed to work things out. I began to feel really guilty for pushing him away. Tyler was having a party and the entire school was going to be in attendance, especially Christian. As much as I wanted to speak to Christian, I was having second thoughts about attending the party. Rita came over to Nigel's house so they could get ready and go together. She been
MAKAILA CHAPTER 26
Christian's POVI haven't stopped regretting walking out of Makaila's room that evening. I wish I stayed. I wish I stayed to hear what she had to say but I just couldn't bear to see her cry. It breaks my heart to see her hurt and I hurt her so bad. I have probably lost all my only chance of being with her. I love Makaila so much but would I ever be with her? Would I? I started to get ready for Tyler's party. Bethany said she would meet me there which is kinda weird because she loves us going to parties together. She loved us showing to the whole school who the most popular couples were. I guess, I should get used to her because I don't think she's leaving me anytime soon. I don't even think I am going to leave her soon. I am not the kinda that breaks up without a good reason to. Plus, there was something about Makaila that made me scared for her. I have been seeing her sneaking
MAKAILA CHAPTER 27
Christian's POV"Makaila, are you okay?" I immediately moving closer to her. "Come back here you slut!" I heard a familiar voice call from behind her. She shook her head and ran off, brushing past me. Before I could say anything to stop her, I saw Tyler, James and two other guys on the team running towards me. My eyes met theirs, especially Tyler whose lips spread in a sardonic smirk when he saw me. I saw that Tyler had a black eye and I needed no soothsayer to tell me he had done something. I felt my blood boil. "What did you do to her?" I asked him, my voice raspy. "Nothing."He shrugged nonchalantly. "We just wanted to have a little fun with her. If you are spending so much time with her, then she must be really good in bed. Better than Bethany even." He slurred drunkenly. I didn't pay attention to his last statement. I already saw
