Gwyneth's POV
A few minutes later, we're in his car and he's driving like a mad man, he's making me nervous as hell.
"Take me back to the resto this instant! I'm not happy with what you have done back there. Now take me back so I could atleast apologize in your stead." I am restraining myself not to rebuke him even more.
He didn't seem unfazed at all instead he is more focused on finding a parking spot in the front lawn of an enormous house or more like a mansion.
From here, I could clearly see the whole party design at the entrance gate. Party music blasting like there's no tommorow and I could say that everybody is having fun in there, dancing and grinding each other's body like a wild animal.
"Sean is going to be mad at me if I didn't make it in there." I insisted.
He unbuckled his seatbelt before turning sideways. "Come on, the party started earlier than I thought." He's not even paying attention to my constant pleading.
He got out of the car before I do, leaving me frowning inside. I stared at the windshield, eyebrows squinting and my teeth gnashing in too much anger.
"Don't make me wait for too long and get out of the car, Gwyn." He barked an order when he opened the car door for me. Chivalry is dead. Well, chivalry only exist in books and novel, not in real life anymore.
He leaned down unbuckling my seatbelt and grab my hand before pulling me out of the car. He then slammed the door shut.
"I don't want to be your contract girlfriend anymore. I'm breaching our contract." I stated firmly.
He looked at me smugly, so I unclasp his grip on my wrist swaggering away from him.
"There is no way you could get away from here." He suddenly said making me stopped from walking. "You will only get lost when you try to go to the main exit of this villa. Besides, it's already late and we don't really know what might happen to you along the way. I don't wanna be haunted in my sleep so if I were you, I will set aside my ego." He added coarsely.
"If isn't for your absurd ass, I won't be here in the first place tch."
I removed the stiletto I was wearing before starting to walk again, barefoot. I don't care what might happen to me on the road, I just want to get away from that douchebag.
"Hey!" I heard him yelled.
I increased my pace, carrying my stiletto on my left hand. The road is well-cemented so I don't have to worry about the sole of my feet getting hurt and wounded .
"Stop right there right now!"
"Don't tell me what to do!" I yelled back.
I've finally made up my mind. I will breach the contract that binds the two of us. He ruined my dinner date with Sean and his parents and brought me here—
"YAH!" I yelp in surprise when someone grab my wrist. "Let go of me, Kalex!" Hitting his hand with the stiletto I'm currently holding.
"Make me, baby." he retorted annoyingly.
I continue beating him with my stiletto while he's dragging me into the doorway of the house. "I said, let me go!"
We're attracting the crowd now but the douchebag won't just budge.
"Stop beating me or else...." he paused in a moment as he stared on my lips, making me feel uneasy.
"O-Or else what?" I stuttered.
He didn't bother to answer me and move his gaze away then continue dragging me until we reached the pool area where bunches of teenagers we're busy enjoying themselves, most of them are my schoolmates. They swayed their hips to the deafening music moving along with the beat.
"Happy birthday, bud." We're approaching the man near the pool bar. He was wearing a white polo shirt, holding a glass of wine in his right hand. "How's your party? Aren't you happy to see me?" Spreading his arms for a manly hug.
"It's better now that you're finally here." Denver responded warmly. "Thanks for coming too, Gwyn." Offering me a smile.
I just nodded my head, too worn-out to talk. The entire ambiance is not my thing. I mean, I've been to parties before but not like this.
"GWYNETH!"
I was alarmed when someone suddenly hugged me from behind. When I turned around to see who it was, it's none other than Zaina Fortaleza, my clamorous friend. She was wearing a black lacy bikini, just like most the women here.
"I thought you are not coming tonight?" She immediately inquired when she detached herself from the hug.
"She is with me." Kalex groaned and I just rolled my eyes at him.
Zaina nudge me on my side before whispering in my ears. "Why are you with him, huh?"
She waited for me to answer her query when her eyes flashed with something like a realization. "D-Don't tell me — Oh my god! Is he your client?"
He's not my client anymore because I already put an end to our contract earlier. Besides, I'm a 'one word is enough person'. Once I said it, there's no other way to take it back.
"I'm her boyfriend." Kalex beat me to it, hugging me sideways.
I saw Denver choke out what he was drinking. "You gotta be kidding, man." He seemed unhappy of what he just heard considering the frown on his face.
"Ah, contract boyfriend is what you're trying to say. Is that it?" Zaina groaned.
Kalex's gripped on me tightened making me pinch his stomach, but the lunatic man did not even flinch. Is he made of stone or what?
"She just ended our contract, so basically I am her boyfriend for real now." He proudly replied before turning to look at me. "Right, baby?"
"You're crazy." I hissed.
He laugh a little and lightly pinched my cheek "Yeah, crazy for you, baby."
I warningly slapped his hand off my face and with all my force, I shrug off his arms from me. He's insane ugh!
"It's my first time seeing you this romantic dude. I didn't know that you are this cheesy." Denver throw his head back, laughing like a madman. "Anyways, Allaine has been waiting for you for a while now. Let me take care of your 'contract girlfriend' while you get your business done." He really emphasized the word 'contract girlfriend'.
Kalex smirked before answering. "We just broke up, dude."
"I didn't say I would agree to what you wanted to happen." The bitch I encountered earlier suddenly made an appearance behind us.
She's walking seductively towards Kalex's side and without hesitation, she gently caress Kalex's face.
"Stop it, Allaine!" Kalex shouted and quickly dodge his ex- lover's hand.
"Why would I? I will never stop until you find a better woman for yourself. I just can't accept the fact that you replace me with some smutty woman." She said meanly, looking at me from head to toe.
"Woah, coming from you?" I retaliated.
She stepped closer to me and when she couldn't control herself, she screamed at me in annoyance. "How dare you!" She was about to grab my hair when Denver stop her.
"One wrong move, and I'll call the security to drag you outta here." Denver threatened her. She's a warfreak bitch who can't control her own self.
When I saw the expression on Denver's face, it's as if he was a Knight and shining armor or something like a leading man I've seen in the movies. But of course it's just my imagination. There's no such thing here in the real world.
"What? Are you serious about what you just said? You sided that woman over me? God! You're unbelievable." I almost laughed at Allaine's reaction when she looked at Denver. Her face contorted pretty bad.
"Hold back yourself if you want to stay here until the end of the party." Denver's eyes were serious as if it was not in his vocabulary to play with Allaine's plot.
"Fine! I'll leave!" Allaine shouted then glared at me. "We're not yet done, bitch, keep that in mind. I'll get back to you, just wait for it." She angrily walked passed us .
"Okay, I'll wait for you." I retorted to irritate her even more.
She's pesky as hell. But mocking her is one of my habit now. I don't know, but her reactions are so priceless.
"Oh c'mon. Are you really looking for a fight? "Kalex lectured, poking my creased forehead.
Okay Kalex the grouch. He's no fun at all. Tch.
Gwyneth's POVThe irking music blasted the whole place. I've seen a group of people smoking weed, aside from throwing drinks in the air and consuming alcohol. It's creeping the hell outta me.“I would have you home before midnight.” Kalex whispered to my ears before walking crisscross going back to his troupe busy playing game flip cup, which gotten them boozy.Is he nuts? He's insanely drunk, so how is he going to drive me home?Most of the people attending this party spend their leisure time getting intoxicated. Even Zaina? Well, she's nowhere to be found since she left me a while ago.How I wish Kalex didn't showed up earlier while I'm with my client. Tch.I stood up and started to walk down the exit of this house, or should I say mansion. Denver is fucking loaded.I don't think I can stand this kind of atmosphere any longer. I'd rather wait for Zaina outside than breathing the same ai
Gwyneth's POVAfter a couple of few minutes waiting here in the queue, finally the chicken noodle soup I ordered for Zaina arrived. She complained about her having severe headache and body ache because of the party yesterday night, so I decided to buy it for her so that somehow she would feel a little better."Thank you." I smiled to the counter attendant.I picked up the tray that contains the soup and carefully walk back to our table."Gosh! I just want to sleep and not get into the next subject." I heard Zaina muttered as she bent down and proceed to bang her head on the table for several times.She's going crazy.We are here in the cafeteria for an hour break. I laid the tray on the table and placed the soup in front of Zaina. "Here's your soup, 'Madame'." I said, emphasizing the word "madame".She stopped from what she was doing and then finally got up from her seat. "What's this?""Soup, obviously. What e
Gwyneth's POV"What is your plan?" Zaina asked while I am busy fixing the laces of my shoes, she's doing the same thing as me.We are here in the locker room with the rest of our classmates to change into our PE uniform, so it's not surprising that every corner of this room was corrupted by an ear piercing noise made by them."Can you tie my hair?" I pleaded Zaina as I stood up and went straight to the full-length mirror like usual locker room would have."Obviously they like you and you don't have to ask them that. It's pretty obvious you know, except for Denver who almost bragged earlier that he was flirting with you. How whipped he can get lmao." I saw her reflection from the mirror. "What can you say? " she then asks as she trod her way towards me."I honestly don't know what to say." I simply said.What should I say? They're not even my type and I was about to decline Denver's feelings towards me, I am just waitin
Gwyneth's POV"We need to talk." I stated firmly to Denver, then grab him by the arm and dragged him out of the locker room.I still manage to get out even though it's a bit crowded inside because of the scene he created in there."Hey slow down! Are you planning to trip me over?" I heard him whining but I simply ignored it and just continue to drag him with me until we finally got out of the gym.Myriads of eyes were on us as we pass by and believe me dude, some are almost popping out of it's eye sockets. Goodness gracious they're bunch of prying creatures! Can't they just mind their goddamn business? Anyways, who would not dare to look at their oozing hot Denver, especially when a woman is holding his arm?"Explain." I commanded, looking at him seriously after I let go of his arm.I brought him here in the back of the gymnasium building. I have no choice, do I? What he did earlier will probably be the talk of the town for
Gwyneth's POVMy chest is still hammering as if I ran a mile. I'm getting myself ready for my last breath as the door agonizingly open. I closed my eyes and braced my head for whatsoever that's going to come. I bite the inside of my cheeks, silently cursing for getting myself in this cubicle. Jinx is really after me today. Of all other cubicle's I could enter, why did I get myself in this one?"I-I'm sorry. I didn't mean to eavesdropped on your convo with someone. I-It's just so happened that I am currently changing my clothes, so I didn't get out right away when you entered. I-I promise not to tell anyone about what I've heard. I'll also do whatever you asked me to do without anything in return. Just don't hurt me please." I entreated, stumbling over my words after she successfully got the door open.I couldn't face her. I'm afraid that she'll snap my neck the moment I laid my eyes on her. I can't die yet, not now. I still have plans for eterni
Gwyneth’s POV"Did you even have a good sleep last night?" Zaina asked me as we made our way to our first subject this morning. "You look horrible! Like, look at those shocking eyebags. Girl, you look like a dehydrated larva." She pointed out as if her eyebags are not as dreadful as mine. TchThe letter I've read keeps coming back into my mind. It made me feel uneasy everytime I think about it. I can barely close my eyes for goddamn sake! No one knows what happened back in the locker room yet, neither Zaina nor my auntie. I don't want to rush things out cause in the first place, I don't even know who that woman is. I'm dying to ask Kalex if he saw a woman before he barged into the cubicle yesterday, but I am afraid he'll ignore me after yesterday's incident.“Our first period will be held in the lecture hall today. Same goes with Kalex's section. ”It made me come to a halt when Zaina mentioned Kalex's name. "Really?" I surprisingl
Gwyneth's POVI paid the lunch I get for myself and trod my way to our usual table, not taking my eyes off the man in front of the counter. I slowly place a tray of food on the table, still looking oddly at the man in line.“Girl, are you effin' serious? Oh my my my, he's a hunk!”I immediately covered Zaina's blabbering mouth with my delicate hand. He might hear us talking about him for goddamn sake!"Just this once, keep your voice down please." I desperately pleaded her in a hush, getting my hands off her mouth. "He might hear you." I added indignantly.She just shrugged her shoulder, acting like she doesn't give a fuck.“That Quir guy is helluva ravishing. I mean, look at those oozing muscles. Girl, he's fucking hot! I can't find it in me to believe that he was your childhood friend. Are you bluffing, huh? ” she whispered with thrill in her voice.I am not in a mood for a storytelling.Why woul
Gwyneth's POV“Raise your standard. You two are not a good fit."I saw how Zaina choke on what she was eating which Denver acted upon and immediately offered his water to my friend. Kalex on the other hand was utterly pissed off, this made him stop from eating and glared daggers at the smirking Quir."What the hell is your problem?" Kalex aggressively ran his hands through his hair while looking seriously at Quir. Judging by his stance and the tone of his voice, he's already exasperated.I suddenly felt anxious, not knowing what do to. I bit the inside of my cheeks, spook of what could happen next. I mean, they're furious as hell, that they could turn this cafeteria into ashes with the intensity of their stares."Hey, buddies! What's for lunch?" Suddenly someone appeared behind us causing me to whip my head back. I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw that it's just Yuki, the one whom Zaina met earlier this day. "I went with Allaine for
