HAILEY's POV.I was preparing noodles for my dinner since it was already getting late at night.Aiden had left immediately, Ryan, had gone to his room, saying he didn't like the way Aiden approached him.I tried to calm him down, telling him, Ryan was the grouchy and arrogant type but Aiden being the puffed-up asshole he is like Ryan left in annoyance.Honestly, I don't even understand men and their behaviors.Putting the spices into the noodles in the pot, I lowered the cooking temperature of the gas and turned around to pick carrots, I didn't use a finish on the counter and eat.I jolted back startled and fear almost gripped me before I realized it was Ryan who was leaning in the doorway in a white single and black shorts that reached below his knee.“You are still around?” I asked him nervously, walking over to the counter to pick the half carrot I used.“Yeah!” He answered with a shrug as he gazed at me.“Uhm! How long have you been watching me, standing over?” I questioned him cur

Hailey's POV.The weekend was quick to roll fast by, I walked out of the house, planning on walking to the nearest bus stop and board on a bus to take me to school when Ryan parked his car in front of me and horned.I froze at my spot seeing him as he flashed me a charming smile.'No! No!!' I tried to compose myself as my hands tightened on my bag strap.I've tried to shut him out of my head after our encounter in the kitchen, and there he was in my front.Furthermore, I breathed out, squinting my eyes past him, and decided to ignore him as I walked quickly and got on the street.“Hailey!” He called after me as I nervously bit my lower lips, I kept on walking, not answering him when I realized his car trailing behind me.Suddenly, the blaring sound of the horn nearly burst my eardrums, I turned around and faced him with a glare.“What?” I fired annoyingly at him, a nasty smirk curled up his lips while I stared awkwardly at him.“Get in the car, Hailey,” He ordered, making me roll my e

'I'm thinking about you, right now,' Aiden texted me while I grinned like a Cheshire cat.I pressed my lips together and leaned my back on the headboard, and typed quickly on my phone. 'Hmm! What are you thinking about me?' I asked him, smacking my lips together when my door opened suddenly.I shot my gaze up with a frown and was ready to lash out at anyone who entered my room without knocking. I thought I stopped breathing for a while, Ryan just walked into my room shirtless and closed the door behind him, and turned around to face me.Furthermore, I gasped staring at his abs down, down to his… Oh, Gosh!He was so fucking hot, he had virgin pacs now for crying out loud! I quickly averted my gaze away from his body.“Don't you know how to knock?” I asked him, blushing slightly while staring at my phone, trying to ignore him and his eye tempting body.“I'm not used to it,” He answered proudly like the jerk he is, while I snapped my gaze to his face instead, trying my best to avoid star

“I'm not interested,” I replied flatly and Aiden's message popped up, and I decided to use that chance to ignore Ryan, who was still staring at me.He continued massaging my legs while I tried to focus on replying to Aiden, but my mind was clouded.' Let's have a video call,' Aiden texted, I widened my eyes and coughed when he began to call me. Ryan stared curiously and coldly at me, “Is that your boyfriend?” He asked as I gazed at him.“Yeah!” I answered curtly, his jaw twitched, and he looked deplorable.I sighed, thinking whether to accept the call or not, Ryan looked hurt, and now he tried being sane with me, I shouldn't skip that opportunity.Who knows when he will go all grumpy again.Biting my lips nervously, I declined the call and quickly texted Aiden.'Uhm! My mum just entered my room, and we're talking, let's just chat,' I lied, clicking on the send icon and heaved out.He read the message immediately and began typing…'Okay,' He replied.“Aren't you picking the call?” Ryan

I upbraided and frowned at myself as I smacked my lips together.~~It was break ti

“Hailey! Come down for dinner,” Mom announced loudly after knocking on the door of my room.“I will mum,” I replied loud enough for her to hear while removing the blanket covering my body and sitting on the bed.“Okay, be fast, so your food won't get cold,” Mum said, and I sighed, biting my lower lips anxiously.Anxious in the state that I was finding a suitable way to skip dinner tonight.I slumped back on my bed and stretched out my arms and legs like a starfish and contemplated whether to go have dinner or not.It's not like I wanted to avoid having dinner, but I don't want to see the one person I'm avoiding now, Ryan. Ever since he kissed me in the school's restroom, I haven't been myself for the rest of the entire day, and seeing him again tonight will only add to the headache I'm having at the moment.My stomach growled and rumbled, letting me know she didn't give a fuck about what I'm going through and should satisfy and fill the emptiness in the stomach.'No, I'm not having d

I walked through the hallways of the school, self-conscious of my appearance as always. My fingers were wrapped tightly on the strap of my school bag and for some weird reason, I wished I were done with high school.The bell suddenly rang, and every student in the hallway began to run to their classes, the squeaking sounds of shoes on the floor began to cringe annoyingly in my ears.The clink and slamming of lockers were heard loudly as most of the students hurriedly ran to their class when the bell rang for the second time.I was a bit late to school and I have no plans of running to any classes, I don't even feel like attending one.Getting closer to my locker, I unlocked it, turning the lock to the secret numbers I set for unlocking it when it got opened.A wry sigh escaped my lips as I removed one of the bag straps around my left shoulder so, it could come to the front. I unzipped my bag and brought out my literature textbook and arranged the notebooks, which is seemingly improper

As soon as the bell rang for closing, I scooted out of the class, I had called my boyfriend to come to pick me up in school during break, which would stop Ryan from forcing me to follow him home.I stood in the school's park, waiting for Aiden to show up and call me if he was around.My palms felt sweaty, and I repeatedly tap my left foot on the floor as I checked the cars driving into the school's park.“Waiting for someone?” Someone chirped behind me, and for a second, I thought my heart would jump straight out of my mouth.I turned around to see Brielle staring at me with an awkward smile on her face.I heaved out in relief and smiled at her, “Hey, Brielle,” I greeted her, wondering why she approached me.“Anything wrong?” I asked her as she stared at me and a bit anxiously on her lips.“Uhm! It's about Ryan,” She said, and I sighed.I don't want anyone to bring up his name, the way I'm trying so hard to avoid him, what if he just jumps up from somewhere and shows up.“What about h
