Chase's POV

It's been barely a week since I started to get out of the house.

In that space, I've seen and done things I never thought I'd do.

From using my dad as influence to transfer Rudd, even after I knew that he was having an affair with Jessica and should be punished instead, to seeing Lily trip off the cameras in the security room for some reason.

She wasn't really the girl I used to know. So I didn't think it was a smart idea to challenge her.

Besides, she hated me badly. And I didn't exactly feel her either.

She'd extorted me of two grand in the space of two months.

Remembering that made me feel shut, when just a night ago, I had promised Emma that I wasn't gonna be keeping stuff from her,

It always unnerved me to see Emma and Lily together.

Lily had even begun to sleep over again.

Emma's mom and my dad were still not back, I hope Mrs Linda was alright.

“What the hell is she doing here?” I dragged Emma behind one of the heavy curtains and asked.

    Emma's POV I started having Lily over soon after the whole drama blew past. I didn't know, and frankly didn't care where she stood Gray. We were having the time of our lives together and that was seriously all that mattered to me. Life was beautiful. I had everybody I wanted in my corner. I was still confused about Chase, and it kinda made me miss my mom. Not like I'd have been able to talk to her about it, but it sure would've helped to have her around. “What are you doing here?” I asked Chase. I had, unsuccessfully, tried to hide my body from him. “Lily and I were just trying out waist chains for the prom.”I explained, turning red already. Chase was shamelessly looking at my vagina. I wanted to cover it so bad, but some invisible force held me back. I won't ever be able to explain it. “That explains a shaved pussy?” He asked. He had already grabbed all the stuff in my hands, so I had nothing to fling at him. Lately, he's been getting on my nerves, jokingly or intenti

    Emma's POV I thought it weird that he'd asked such a question. When did Chase start to give a fuck or two about how I felt or perceived him? “I find it weird that you ask me that.” I replied to him. “Why?” He asked me. “Well cause, for one, I don't think you really give a fuck about it.” I replied. “This could be one of those your….how do I put it?” I had a lot to say, but my vocabulary was failing me. “I feel like the issue is, you're prejudiced against me.” He said. I looked at him in awe. I did not see that coming. “What the hell is that even supposed to mean?” I asked Chase. “Emma, I'm not a fool.” He said, smiling sadly. “No good girl wants to be with a stuck up, bad boy, with bad friends.” Chase grinned, and it scared me all the more. “No!” I shouted, he was getting in my head and confusing my thoughts with all the psychological shit he was doing. “No. That's not it. It's not even close to it Chase, I gave you a chance, at least I think I did.” I said, setti

    Emma's POV Chase grabbed me. I was amazed at the amount of strength he had. I knew he frequented the most fancy gyms in the city, and the home gym of late. “So all that late night workout finally paid off, huh?” I asked, tickling him while he carried me like a little girl up the stairs. “You think I train ninety minutes everyday to catch a falling stranger?” He shot back at me. “Oh, so now I'm a stranger?” I asked, with exaggerated hurt. “You can undo that.” He said, winking at me. “Is that not how you kinda see everyone?” We walked past my room and his, and I had begun to wonder where the hell he was taking me. “What does that even mean?” He asked. “You kinda treat people with a long spoon, close enough, but not too close.” I said. He didn't seem too eager to answer that. “Any reasons for that?” I asked him. He threw me over his shoulder to fetch something from his pocket. I looked at what room we'd stopped at, it was Mark's. I didn't have a problem with Chas

    Emma's POV “You sound like there's a lot there.” I said, pointing to his heart. “Wanna let it out?” I asked. “Let's see how far this booze talks.” He replied to me. “I don't want the booze.” I said, looking him in the eye. “I want you. I want you to talk to me, Chase.” “He's not who you think he is.” Chase said. “You're not one to tell me that.” I replied to him. “Well, true.” He poured another cup and continued. “How much do you want to know?” He asked. His pupils were already lazy, and he could barely look straight. “Everything.”I replied, walking towards him. I sat on the bar table in Mark's room, and looked straight into Chase's eye. “Do you think I'm innocent?” He asked, with a surprisingly straight face. “No.” I replied, laughing, “you most definitely are not.” “That's a good start.” He said, right before pouring another cup. I snatched the bottle off the table and tucked it behind me. “There's more.” He said, looking at me and laughed. “I

    Emma’s POV “Chase, look at me.” He just kept on talking and talking. “Chase. Chase. Chase, look at me, look at me.” I brought his face to mine, but it didn't stop him. “Emma. No. I don't want to have to not do this. I'm tired of keeping quiet, being mature, and having my feelings under check. Emma, I have you here with me, and I still miss you. We could be so much more. Contrary to what you think there really is not much to live for. Emma, please. Give you to me, please. Falling for you, Emma, was like falling for grace.” “I don't want to keep imagining what would be if we gave this a chance, I want to live it. Emma, take me to your heaven.” He was out of breath, and for that, I was grateful. “Say something, please.” He pleaded finally. My eyes were moist, and so was my face. Chase never really came out about all this to me. At that point, I knew everything could not be the same. Our lives had changed. But worse than all, I hated feeling lonely. And even in times I felt

    Emma's POV I cried all the way out. I want to believe I even say pity in Patty's eyes for the first in a long time, I had never been this emotionally wrecked, not even back in Starry when the whole school got my pictures. “Why? Why does this have to happen to me?!” I screamed to no one exactly. It felt like my world was caving in and there was nothing I could do about it. The next day came by fast. I didn't know how I got in my bed, cause last I closed my eyes, I was still outside. I woke up around five in the morning, it was still on my mind. I knew Chase was gonna break my heart. I already knew about all that. I was still hurting inside, scared as fuck to fall in love. Worse still with someone who'd leave me shattered. In all honesty, no one I've been with or had a crush on felt like Chase, but I still had to be cautious. I knew I was not the best at choosing others. My past speaks for itself and I didn't want history to repeat itself. I continued rolling from side to s

    Lily's POVWhen I saw how Emma looked, I kinda did an itsy bitsy leap of joy in me. She came in a ride I had been on twice. I always loved the car. I loved it better when Chase rode me in it. “Come out.” I shoved her out. Her eyes were red and swollen and I could tell she was seeing in 360 pixels. I rummaged through the car for the rest of her stuff. Chase's signature cologne was all over the car. It was so strong. I smelled it in my sheets weeks after… I had just stumbled on something when Emma dragged me out, running out of the lot like Chase was after her. It was a jewelry box, a female jewelry box. It was so fucking fancy, frosty and shiny. The box had stone cuts that sent light straight into my eye. It was somewhere below the driver seat. I didn't think Enaa saw it yet. I took the box, but Emma chose that exact moment to drag me, so it fell on the floor somewhere. I thought I'd be able to go back to get it, but Emma needed me. “Emma, what's going on?” I had been d

    Grayson’s POVJessica and I spent a lot more time together after the ugly incident with Rudd. I told Chase about it, and while he did seem remorseful, he didn't look surprised. “You don't look surprised.” I observed. “Are you?”He retorted. “Come on man. This is our friend here.” I said, hitting him on the chest. “Whatever.” He said, looking away. “We all knew she's had this sort of thing coming. I mean, she's been sleeping with him since forever. The school trip was their honeymoon. They've been in all sorts of clubs and hotels since then. It's on school property and so it becomes rape?” He asked. “No man.” I said, annoyed that he was thinking that way. “She was drugged.” Chase turned to me, alarmed, and then tried to mask it. “You see what I'm talking about?” I asked him, pressing the severity of it in. “And then he goes ahead to leave the school.” “I did that.” Chase said. “You drugged Jessi…?” I asked. “No, fool.” He said, slapping me playfully on the ba

    Emma's POV “Welcome. I've got wine.” I said, and sprang up to my feet as soon as Kevin got close enough to me. I didn't enjoy the rush of blood to my nether regions at the sight of him and smell of his cologne, but really, my body had a lot to do in coming to terms with my mind and heart. “Not too happy to see me.” He said and smiled sadly, looking away. “Would you rather be alone? I'd just drop this and be on my way.” He held my keys up, before tossing them gently to my reading table. “You're breaking me, Kevin.” I managed to say. “I don't even know where we are, I don't even know where to start, you can't blame me for acting like this. Even though I genuinely think wine would help.” I said, looking down. I didn't have the mind to look Kevin in his face. I felt so shitty. This must've been how Chase felt every single time he fucked up. It hurt so bad being on that other half of a relationship drama. As horrible as it is to admit, I'd rather be the one cheated on. I just cou

    Emma's POV “I think you know where your keys are.” Chase looked me in the eyes. His blue eyes were no more sexy, they were icy. “We can take it from here, Dave.” I turned to the uber guy, dismissing him. “To think that you're the one who was so concerned with how I'd handle Kayla!” Chase screamed. “I think you should know that I didn't think this was gonna happen!” I yelled back at him. I wasn't known to be the noisy neighbour, and I didn't want Chase to make me be seen as one, so I entered my apartment, which was stuffed full of flowers and hampers and gifts, a note on my reading desk which I snatched up immediately, and a wine on my bed. Gosh! It was so sexy. I didn't know how to feel. Kevin really went out of his way. What I didn't understand was why he'd do that, knowing when he left, he left me to Chase, and really, the outcome was inevitable. “I see y'all have a fun night planned, I wouldn't want to interrupt any plans you've made.” Chase said, with his hand

    Emma's POV “Is it just me, or is this trip actually unnecessary?” I asked him, as we boarded a flight back to MA. “Come on!” Chase said as he took my hand. “You know it is. We're not planning to accumulate a lot of school work, are we?” He smiled. We didn't have to wait with the business and economy passengers, cause, well, we're first class. “Every single trip to reality sucks so much.” I whined. Chase held my hands tightly under his, maybe ensuring I wasn't gonna run away, and it's not like I wanted to either. “We have to keep taking it.” He said and sighed. “You really do not know much about being supportive.” I muttered and just let myself be led like a sheep to the slaughter. “Come on, Em.” He said, still not taking his eyes off the road, “You know everyone's just doing what they have to do.” Chase said. “Do I have a choice?” I whispered to myself. I wasn't mad at Chase, I was just angry that our little baecation was over and that we were gonna be separate

    Emma's POV “Hey mom!” I was overfilled with excitement and anticipation. From what Chase briefed me, we had a whole lot of fun stuff to do. It was quite risky that we were taking such a break from school, but it's nothing Chase's dads connections couldn't fix. He said that we were gonna have fun, and he was gonna make sure of it. “How are you, sugar?” She asked. It'd been a minute since I saw my mom that happy. “Never been better.” I replied a little too enthusiastically, I was so happy to be away. Somewhere no one knew me. “You look it.” She smiled. “Why did you not call me? Forgot about your woman in all your boy dramas?” Unfortunately for me, the phone was on speaker, and Chase wasn't far. Which definitely meant he was paying more than the usual attention. “Come on, mom!” I chided. “It didn't exactly end the way we thought.” I was trying to be as cryptic as possible, if I had my way, I'd have avoided the whole topic all together. “Tell me.” She said, looking s

    Emma's POV “Do you wanna come in with me?” Chase asked. The answer was gonna be hell yeah, but because of what happened in the past-less than twenty four hours ago, the question was necessary. “Yes.” I answered affirmatively. “Are you sure you're gonna be comfortable here?” He asked again, looking at me doubtfully. “I'll try.” I replied. “That's not such a good thing.” He remarked, heavy on his amateur British accent, taking a step back. “I can't help it. It's too many memories.” I apologized. “Don't do that.” He said, and appeared to think pensively. “Let's go somewhere. What do you say?” He looked at me. “What?!” I asked. Can't lie, I was shaken a bit. “Just like that?” I blinked so hard and fast. “Yeah. Somewhere different. Somewhere we could be ourselves. Somewhere we can start on a fresh slate and get back on our feet.”He couldn't have sold the idea to me any better. “Uhm, I,uhm. Is that possible?” I asked. The sun was so bright, I had to squint, and

    Emma's POVDon't even ask why I walked out of Chase's house, cause I couldn't give myself a sensible reason. I just wanted to be away from there. It felt like something was haunting me. I had a troubled sleep, matter of fact, I had no sleep at all that night. I tossed and turned and cursed myself out for being so trashy. I kept wondering if I was cursed. Could I just not mess my own happiness up? I wanted to do something desperately. It was the day after and I was still the only one in Mark's house. It gets lonely real fast when no one is home. “You've gotta do something, Emma.” I said to myself as I sat alone in Mark's big ass living room. Confused and ashamed, but ready to make things right, I hopped into the easiest car to back out of the garage, and once again, was on my way to Chase's house. As I drove, I thought of a million things I could say. Really, just anything to explain my behavior the previous day, but nothing came to my mind. I could not even convince myself t

    Chase's POV “Fuck!” I didn't understand why Emma was in such a rush to get away from me. We literally were just unloading our hearts content to each other. Was she bored? Tired of me? Did she see something that triggered her? She wasn't even with her phone. I'd have concluded that she got some type of news. Two days after my dads anniversary dinner, and I was still in Starry, against my own will. Having sworn to leave town, immediately after the dinner, with all traces of me gone if Emma didn't come into my life, I surprised myself. For every single thing I thought could never be, life kept sending it my way. Emma and I had sorted our issues, but she wasn't speaking to me. I woke up as early as 6:00am, checking my phone for texts from her constantly, and there were none. I wondered what I did to deserve the cold treatment again. It's one thing to be in someone's bad books, it's another thing not to know why. I thought long and hard of what to do. But no sensible ideas wer

    Emma's POVThe person I was at Chase’s house wasn't the regular me. I was feeling a million things and I wanted anything, anything at all, that would make me feel even just a bit better. Being that close to him, saying everything I said was a new feeling. My heart was racing and my throat constantly ran dry. “Can I admit something I think of sometimes?” I asked Chase. “Yes.” He said, really enthusiastically. I thought to myself if he'd be that hyped up if he knew what was on my mind, but since I'd concluded that I'd stop keeping stuff I thought to just myself, I said it. “You might not be too enthusiastic if you knew the shit that's about to fly out of my mouth.” “Come on, Em.” He said. “I don't fancy when you refer to yourself that way.” “Okay, okay.” I said, putting my hands up in surrender. “What if Gray and Lily weren't there?” I asked him. Chase looked at me, for about ten seconds, his bright blue eyes were beginning to get their spark. Instead of being terrified

    Chase’s POV “I was about to ask if I ever made you doubt that, but I remembered I have, over a thousand times.” I said, shooting myself in the foot. “People change, Chase. I believe you can too.” She said like she was holy or something. “Come on girl, don't treat me that way.” I played along. “Can we sit?” she asked, pointing at the chairs I'd already wrapped. “Sure we can,” I said, “tear them off.” “What were you gonna do, really?” She asked her. “I don't know, actually, and I'm not even lying. The plan was to be away from everywhere you were.” I replied, truthfully. “Do you still feel that way?” She asked me. “Come on!” I said. “You know that's not possible.” “Just checking in to make sure, really.” She remarked and looked away.. “Can I go now?” I asked her if I could ask my own questions. “How do you think life would have been if both of us ended up in MIT?” I asked her. “I know it'd be great, for sure. I also know it'd be straining, maybe a
