I toss the car key onto the coffee table, not realizing Mom was fast asleep on the sofa.Frighteningly, she jumps up from her sleep to turn on the light."I thought the party ended at midnight," she says as she sees that it's me."I decide to leave early," I respond.Mom approaches me and stretches to touch my face."I know you miss your old friends, as well as your girlfriend," she says sadly.I nod and say, "It's okay, Mom.""Get back to sleep. You look weary."She nods, and I wrap a hand around her shoulder, helping her upstairs.As we're at her bedroom door, she says, "Thanks Hun, you're a great son."I kiss her on the forehead. She goes into her room, and I go to mine.I strip down to my black boxers. Not feeling sleepy. I grab my laptop from the study desk and lay in bed. I video call my girlfriend Jenna.Immediately, she answers."Hey babe." She sits in the centre of her bed. She crosses her legs. She is adorned in a short blue satin nightgown that accentuates her curly shoulde

"Ms. Amber, you need to eat something," Clara, my maid, says, entering my room.She's parted the curtain; the sun shines in my eyes, and I pull the sheet over my head."It's Saturday. You should be out shopping with your friends and not in bed at noon," she says.I stare blankly beneath my sheet."Do you want me to call your therapist?" Clara asks."No," I say, falling back into deep silence."Is she having another mental breakdown?" At the door, Terise asks Clara.Unlike Clara, who has been working here since I was in my mom's belly, Terise has been a maid for three months."No, I'm not," I say, raising my voice. I don't want them to think so.They didn't believe it."Should we try to call her parents?" Clara asks Terise, worried."They won't answer. They never do." I say it sadly as tears stream down my eyes."Well, do you want us to call your boyfriend Tristan?" He always seems to cheer you up. "Terise is afraid that I will have another emotional meltdown.The last time I did, they

Mom drops me off at school. As I'm about to open the car door to get out. Automatically, she locks me in.Upset, I turn to her."I want this silent treatment between you and me to end," Mom says.I'm not in the mood to talk to her or anyone else."Mom, please open the door. I need to get to school," I demand."No, I'm not going to open the door until things are good between us."I lower my back into the seat and fold my hand."I know you're angry with me because I didn't send you the party," she says.I snicker at how oblivious she was to the fact that I did go to the party."I'm just trying to protect you as a good mother."I turn to her and say, "Are you finished now?" Frustrated, she exhales hard, seeing that it's hopeless for her to speak to me.She opens the car door, and I hurriedly leave, slamming the door.I'm aware that she's looking at me as I walk away, so I make haste to get out of her sight.I immediately enter the girl's bathroom, lock myself into one of the stalls, and

The second session has ended, and as I'm leaving the classroom, Lucas, still seated, is encircled by Toby, Jones, and Max, also swim team members. He's showing them something on his phone. They're engrossed in whatever they're watching, appearing to enjoy it because of the satisfied smile on their faces.Lucas catches me staring."Nate, come here; you have to see this," he says.I'm curious to know what they're watching, so I go over to them, and I'm stunned to see an explicit video of Lucas receiving oral sex from a girl."What a whore!" Toby says as they laugh at her."Was she even a virgin?" Max asks Lucas."I'm convinced she was a sex worker," Lucas responds, and they all burst out into laughter.I don't like the video, so I walk away."Hey, where are you going?" Lucas ask."Lunch," I say as I'm still walking."Wait for us," says Lucas.***Lucas was showing the video around the table while we were having lunch, and I was angry."Is that what you do whenever you hook up with a gir

My squads crowd the bathroom. While a few are on their phones, I and the others are touching up our makeup."Our cheering video has already garnered 5 million views on Instagram," Sookie jumps excitedly."Let me see." I close the lid on my red lipstick right after kissing myself in the mirror.Sookie hands me her phone, and I look at it."2 million in 1 hour is poor," I say disappointingly, giving her phone back."Well, it's still good, though." Sookie is content with the video's performance."Whatever," I re-checked the lipstick on my lips, making sure it was okay.My personal Instagram account had acquired more than 5 million views in 1 hour for just showing my feet. I expect our cheering videos to do more.A nobody entered the bathroom, and I glared at her. She nervously halts at the door, staring back at me."I really need to pee," she said, her voice trembling with nervousness."Like, I care." "Go and use the boy's bathroom or the janitor one," I command, and immediately she goes
Crave Chapter 29: Jaylee
Knowing his heart belongs to someone else, it hurts whenever I see Nate at school.I struggle not to stare at him whenever he's going into his locker or walking the corridor. It's not good for me; every moment of his presence feels like a pinch to the heart.As I see Nate coming my way, I head to the bathroom, fighting every ounce of desire in my body not to look at him. With every attention I give him, I fall deeper in love with him. It will be impossible to climb from such depths.Loving someone so much and knowing there's no chance of him ever loving you back is unhealthy for the heart.As I'm walking to the mirror to fix my hair, I see the reflection of Samantha exiting the bathroom stall.

I'm leaving biology class when I feel a grasp around my wrist, and my head turns to see Nate's hand holding mine.He leads me into an empty classroom."Why did you agree to go on a date with Lucas when I warned you about him?" As he releases my hand, he inquires.I'm trying not to smile at his overly concerned expression, so I bite the inside of my lower lip, stopping myself from smiling."I'm a big girl, Nate. I can take care of myself," I say, trying to make him even more jealous."Lucas has a sex video of every girl he sleeps around with that he shows as entertainment to his friend, and I don't want you to be one of his sick videos as well." Nate reveals.I'm still not changing my mind about going on a date with Lucas after hearing about his sick videos.Nate calls my name "Jaylee" as he places my hand in his palm, and my body feels like a lit candle, melting slowly with his flaming touch.I'm softening in his hand as he calls my name again, "Jaylee, I know you're a virgin, and I w

Amber calls me on one side.She says, "I know you saw my wound yesterday," leaving me speechless."I swear I wasn't spying on you. I thought it was Sophia using the bathroom, and I-"Trying to explain myself, Amber stops me. She then checks to ensure we are alone before responding to me."No one shall know about this," she warns.I nod."Is Lucas the one who hurt you?" Eager to know who gave her the scar, I ask as she's leaving."That's none of your business, and if you ever question me about my personal life anymore, I swear, I will have you kicked out of this squad." "Got it." She quickly returns to me and speaks.I nod fearfully.Amber walked, angry, from the gym and slammed the door, and I wish I didn't care about what happened to her.As I'm leaving the gym, Nate walks past me, going down the hallway.
