Darkness and Light
After the dinner at Schuyler’s, Jake dropped Emily off at her place before we headed towards my street. Jake kept his face stiff and expressionless throughout the drive, but there is still a glint of softness in his eyes.
How a dinner that started off with a flowing conversation got sour just when I thought I could not get enough of the delicious meal still baffles me. I don’t know what is going on between Jake and Bay but its visible there is animosity between them. Jake casted me a look and snorted, the corner of his mouth curl up in a smirk. I pointed at my house and he pulled up. “I am very sorry about what happened tonight. I'm embarrassed that you had to see that . The dinner didn’t go as well as I had planned but I'd do better next time" he throws me an apologetic look.Related chapters
FATAL DESIRE Fingers on Strings
I came back from school with a wielded mind to get even. My phone was buzzing with text messages and calls from Jake but I was not in the mode to talk to anyone. Bay stood and watched me bullied by his circle without standing to my defense, and Claire ridiculed me in front of many student. Too much trouble for one day. I didn’t want anyone adding to my already lined up of problems I made my way to the basement to look for my mum’s old guitar. I haven’t stringed in a long time, and I do not have much time to practice. Tomorrow, is either I get a standing ovation or get booed. I was prepared for either of them. I didn’t want Claire thinking that her threats was the reason I withdrew from the audition. I have to be there, no matter what. It took a few try for me to open the basement door, it rusted hinged screeching with every shove. I can’t remember when last anyone entered the basement. Some of my mum’s old things were there. Cobwebs tickled my fac
FATAL DESIRE Love Triangle
…Jake crossed his arms, leaning against the doorframe. I stood in shock for a moment. He stared, towering my face. Between the two brothers, i can’t tell which is more weird. One just jumped out through my bedroom window and the other is staring right at me in the front door. “why do you look so shocked? Are you going to let me in or not! He asked. I stepped back to let him in. He stalked into the living room and plopped on the couch like he’d been here many times. I closed the door and braced myself to knock him off of his effrontery. I hurried to where he was seated forcibly trying to keep a straight face. “What are you doing here Jake?” I tightened my vocal as much as possible. “I was worried about you. You didn’t pick my calls and you probably left my messages unread" he said, raising his eyebrow with a smirk. “Jake you should leave” I said meanly.&n
FATAL DESIRE The Audition
…Everything Mr. Gab was saying in the classroom was breezing behind me. My attention and senses was on the moving hands of the wall clock, waiting for it to hit at12 o’clock on the dot. My audition starts in 9 minutes and uncertainties was lurking around the edge of my subconscious mind. My chin rested in my hand as I drool to the wall clock counting out the seconds left in my head… 5,4,3,2, and before the bell chimed I was already on my feet. I heard Emily call out to me and without looking back at her i grabbed my guitar and breezed through the hallway into the audition room. A little queue of hopeful singers winds around the room. My nerve ramped when I caught glimpse of Claire and her click, Tammy and Diana on the judges table. She was definitely up to sabotage me. Our eyes met and she gave me a tight-lipped smile. She lowered her head and started whispering with the girls. Ya! They are definitely up to no good.
FATAL DESIRE Love unbound
The next morning, Jake led me into the barn to help milk the cows. Bay led a tan cow down the center aisle past us. He shakes his head when he saw Jake and I, and walked down the aisle to cool off. Throughout the process of milking the cow he could not get his eyes off of me. I’ve been spending so much time with Jake the past few days and Bay hated it. After sometime he huffed and stormed off.Jake is an interesting guy, one that knows how to treat a woman and I loved that about him. I enjoyed spending time with him and I think I might just be falling for him too? I found myself admiring all he does… As he milked the cow, I couldn’t resist gulping to his flexed biceps, his strong jawline, his red lips, his thick blonde hair and his sparkling eyes. He glanced up at me and my heart skipped. “did you hear what I said?” he askedI barely registered what he was saying as my memory was flooded with an illicit thoughts of we
FATAL DESIRE Teen love
There is a lot of debate and stigma that surrounds teen love. Many adults brush teen relationships off, believing that they are unable to stand the test of time. However, this believe is not entirely valid. Call it puppy love or lust there are many popular people who married their High School love, like Lebron James and Savannah Bronson. The only problem on my part is that I love three and do not want to lose either of them. I cannot choose between them because I love different things about them.High School wasn’t a smooth ride for me. I was seen as a freak, a farm girl, a nerd and nobody wants to be linked or associated with me. My self esteem got crushed in our first year when Emily and I auditioned for Cheer. I got booed out of stage when I fell flat on my ass. Emily followed me, even though she got in. She is this friend that’d give up her dreams to see you happy. She’d never be in something I wasn’t in on. Emily was always there f
FATAL DESIRE When Love Breeze
…My Dad is running for Mayor? I could not place my finger on his sudden interest in politics. He maintained a very strict a-politicism, and would often narrow politics as a dirty game. This sudden declaration doesn’t sit well with me. He’d be running against very influential men. The likes of Mayor Gustavo, who’s end goal is to win even if it meant tramping on his opponents.I walked across a field and towards a groove of trees. I made my way through the trees to a clearing with a rearing fire pit. It’s my favorite part of the ranch, a spot where I’d often hide anytime I need alone time to think. I lost connection with my Dad the very day my mum left, and politics is definitely going to keep us farther apart. I’m just a young girl who wants a simple life, I wasn’t asking for too much.I sat by the fire gathering my thoughts when the trees rustled on the far side of the fire pit and Jake burst into the clearing. I start
FATAL DESIRE Road Trip to Oklay
I rushed upstairs and packed few of my basic essentials. Jake haven’t told me where he was taking me but I was very excited. I haven’t been on a road trip before, plus I’d like to drive. My Dad doesn’t let me get any close to his truck and I’ve been dying to drive since I got my driver’s license.Breezing downstairs my Dad was leaning on the door frame while Jake waited by his car. It was hard to envisage what was going on in his mind but he certainly wasn’t happy about letting me go.He’d never let me do anything he considered risk taking. Like when my class went on a hiking trip, when Emily’s mum invited me to go camping with them, going to an excursion was strictly under his watch too … a whole lot of fun stuffs he restricted me from doing because I’d get injured. I was surprised when he told me to go with Jake. Totally unlike him.I went up to him and placed a hand on his shoulder… He gazed at me for a moment and enveloped me into a hug. &nb
FATAL DESIRE Love or Just Attraction
…."We could really get into a very fatal accident” I giggled, as Jake’s hand curl around the back of my neck, lightly teasing my skin. “I’d die happy” he chuckled, trailing from my neck to the edge of my bra.I moaned as his knuckles brushed against my nipples. The overwhelming sensation made me to step my foot on the brake pedal. We jolted. My heart sank into my stomach. I exhaled, gathering my breath. I gave him a villainous glare and he shrugged. “What?” “If you are prepared to die, I’m certainly not gonna die with you” “Fine, just keep your eyes on the road” he said and tapped a comforting hand on my lap.I started driving, this time at a very low speed. He trailed his fingers higher on my thighs and reached to stroke my
